    Ready Action Question

    Saves happen at the end of your turn but you can't take actions at the end of your turn (PHB P269). Therefore, if you save vs immobilized at the end of your turn, you can't charge even so the trigger was met.

    Is Painful Oath Too Painful?

    You're right of course I confused it with the rule that when other effects let your roll twice and so on don't stack with OoE. Rerolling my statement.

    Ready Action Question

    I allow it for monsters but the monster is better really smart to use that rule. For players I allow it as well. Adds one more tactical aspect. Nice to have but not essential.

    Is Painful Oath Too Painful?

    OoE and that don't stack. It's pretty much the same, if you talk about raw damage increase by the feat alone, as Marked Scourge (MP).

    Immediate Reaction Question

    I believe after the damage b/c if it would trigger before damage was dealt, it would be interrupting the process and therefore would/should be an immediate interrupt.

    Melee Cunning Sneak - 3 squares but adjacent to enemy ?

    Why are you sorry for having two tanks? I actually said that two tanks could make your concept work better but the part about being hidden makes it somehow useless again. If you want to help tanking build a char that says hit me (*), and not I hide and try to make someone attack me. (*): 1.)...

    i found neat combo i wonder if it works?

    I would distinguish dropping prone voluntarily from being knocked prone involuntarily. But if you decided to to knock yourself unconscious I would allow the boots to work.;)

    Giving Out Magic Items

    Last time I DMed 4E I replaced the items with slots of the same level (instead of you find a +2 magical plate, you find a lvl6 treasure). I just took care that everyone got an equal share during the adventure. I allowed that if there was a, let's say, lvl6 treasure and he needed a lvl5 item he...

    Melee Cunning Sneak - 3 squares but adjacent to enemy ?

    I have no idea how you want to move 3 squares away from your starting square and stay next to the tank at the same time. If there were 2 tanks and their targets were far enough away from each other it would be possible to do what you want (*), but with a single tank - how? (*): You could/would...

    Is Painful Oath Too Painful?

    Both the Jagged weapon enchantment and a PP clearly are paragon tier "features". What do you tell the avengers at lvl1-10? True, painful oath is a paragon feat as well - so that doesn't change anything for the heroic tier. Still many other builds as opposed to a class (avenger) start to work...

    Is Painful Oath Too Painful?

    Just b/c you have seen two probably well made avengers doesn't mean that all avengers deal a boat load of damage. If you played in a party with CharOp players you would probably conclude that all classes are broken whatever. For an average player it's nice to have a simple damage boost w/o...

    Is Painful Oath Too Painful?

    Mr. T can even hack WoW why shouldn't he be able to be silly and have that feat.

    My bad, it's dragon 382 (P41). Enjoy!

    Character sheets with powers sorted by trigger?

    Power Cards = Epic Win! You can lay down the cards for your turn in advance and you're ready to go once your turn comes around. Keep cards at hand with a lasting effect, don't forget your precious buffs! With power cards your combat skill at the table exceeds that of Chuck Norris Power...

    Is Painful Oath Too Painful?

    It's in DP dragon 382 (P41). No it's not overpowered - reasons were already stated. And the best part is that it adds the radiant keyword to the power it applies to. If you don't believe me this is the closest thing to being called out in a FAQ/Update that it indeed does add the radiant keyword.

    Monster Manual definition of "spider climb"?

    On the bright side it looks like Mr. Alphabet reclaimed it's sovereignty in the MM2 glossary. That should teach WotC a lesson.

    Monster Manual definition of "spider climb"?

    Check the MM1 glossary, you'll find climb speed (P280) and as a subentry spider climb. Check MM2 glossary, you'll find climb speed (P216) and spider climb (P218) as individual entries. That should answer all your questions.

    What rule does your group ignore?

    You are generous if you allow any number of immediate actions, your defenders must love you. I would if I played a defender at your table. And just a minor rules correction, it is one OA per turn. Or did you want to say you ignore that, too. ;)

    Spearmage, Hammermage, Staffmage . . .

    AFAIK, CS ruled that said ruling was a mistake. There is a longer thread on this topic on the WotC boards. You can ask further, is the Player's Strategy Guide a Rule Book? I personally have no problem with one implement to rule them all. Back on topic: Nevertheless, just allow any melee...

    Ways to hurt yourself

    Doing it like this is lame. Tell your DM this instead: I teleport and reappear behind my enemy 10ft. above the ground (1d10 falling damage) and as I fall down I use that extra momentum to smite down my enemy <use a some cool weapon power>. Done.
