Maybe not the AC or HP, but Call of the Beast makes Divine Challenge look like a child's petulant pout of marking. And a dwarf druid with a 20 Con could have pretty darn respectable HP and AC, too. 3 less HP than an equivalent fighter, and equal AC to a fighter in scale mail with a light...

I laughed.

Ah, you're absolutely right about this. Somehow, it entirely escaped my notice that Flame Seed wouldn't create the zone if the initial attack missed. Yeah, that does make the power a LOT less obscene. Good call. I was thinking that you got the zone of minion doom automatically, for some...

Just . . . wow. Is it April 1 already? I, for one, welcome our new druid overlords! Look, I'm not saying that 4E is like WoW, or any of that. I'm just saying that IF the head R&D guys at WotC DO happen to play WoW, I'm willing to wager on what their main characters' class is. "Sweet, I...

Very nice, man!

Thank you! I'm happy now. As an aside, I don't favor it especially, either. I'm houseruling the hell out of the damage system in 4E, myself. But it IS a perfectly valid way of interpreting the game, and I find it unfair that people seem to constantly overlook that. EDIT: Oh, and wow, you...

Gah, this continues to drive me crazy. This seemingly automatic and totally unchallenged assumption that the four options listed above are, essentially, the only ones on the table. Now, the fifth option I'd propose COULD simply be a subset of your (4) above, but in my opinion, you'd simply be...

I'm surprised it's not more popular. I've downloaded every sheet I could find online, and this one is by FAR my favorite. It's brilliant. I totally love the design. Is the latest form-fillable version basically done, or does it still have some problems/incomplete spots?

In other words... Attention gamers: Buying gaming books is stupid!

Zing! $

This is really cool.

I don't get this statement. It seems untrue to me, on the surface. Perhaps if you explain it further, I'd understand what you're saying here.

In the 4th Edition Dungeon Master's Guide, James Wyatt writes (and I agree with him): "The game works better in a lot of ways if you just assume that the characters all gain experience and advance levels at the same rate, even if their players miss a session. You don’t have to worry about...

Um.

That's somewhat true, but I've been gaming for 22+ years, and I never saw anything even approaching the level of CharOp-type madness until 3.x D&D came along. Now, I'm not specifically blaming that on the design of that particular game system. Not at all, really. That was more of an accident...

I don't see any Martial powers in this game which describe an occurrence happening which could never happen here in normal, mundane Earth, or which has never happened. I don't see a single Martial power which, when I read it, I think, "There's just NO WAY that could ever happen in the real...

Ahahaha! Awesome. If I was the kind of person who sigs other forum posters, this would definitely be sig-worthy. Beautiful.

I really can't see them waiting until 2011 to put out 4th Edition Monks. Monks are pretty popular. Look at the classes that have been most often attempted to be brought into 4E so far, either by third-party publishers or by fans. Druids, Barbarians, and Bards are probably the biggest three...

This post was pure gold. I got much laughter from this. And of course, you're completely right about everything. Nonsense being smashed is sweet music.

Best case scenario in my opinion: PHBIII covers Psionic and Ki Heroes, and the third campaign setting is Dark Sun. That would be totally awesome.
