Skylab? Heh, I don't think a dinner-plate sized hole is a problem for it anymore at all. Anyway, I'm going to go with what those above have said. It's an extra bit of healing per encounter. And it's likely to be useful in nearly every encounter where anyone takes damage.

That's an "or", not an "and." You only get one of those things: hp and hs, autosave vs. all effects, all encounter powers, OR all dailies except that one. I mean, that's how it's written, if they intended it differently, they need to speak up about it.

Yeah, what's up with that? Or did you roll really well?

Heh, both of those are amusing. The first after considering the fact that you could have just taken that standard action to recharge the item instead of readying it for later charging. The second one because you don't need to use a Healing Word in order to charge the item. You only need to...

I'd also like to point out that recharging the item in this way could be pointless depending on your tier and how many milestones you've reached. A heroic tier character can only use one item power per day unless a milestone has been reached. And if you do have the ability to use more item...

Are you kidding? I'd rather have a cunning, quick-thinking, agile, and fast bodyguard than a big dumb brute. Maybe if you substitute the word "tank" for defender, then okay. But, historically, some of the greatest fighters weren't always the strongest guys, or even the toughest. 4e allows...

But the Justicar himself isn't immune? That's a bit weird, story wise. He's keeping the others from being afraid of the dragon, but he might be soiling his armor at the same time. I've seen so many comments like this on here. This isn't directed at you, zsig, but why is this okay? The core...

But when they did get wounded like that, did they take a nap and have everything be okay? I guess that's my biggest problem. It's not the abstraction of HP. It's the abstraction that no matter how badly wounded you are, as long as your not dead, six hours of rest makes you just like new. It...

Well, if that's a perfect fit for a heroic game, then I guess I don't want to play a heroic game. Also, Basic, 2ed, and 3.Xed (those are the systems that I've had quite a bit of exp playing) all seemed like heroic games to me without this feature. EDIT: In response to the poster directly...

Again, that's sort of a punishment for playing a non-stereotype character, because you have to spend feats on that. And multi-class is a whole nother can of worms, I'm not sure if it's worth spending several feats to replace powers with some from another class. Otherwise, I guess you'll just...

That kind of makes the Bold halfling ability kind of weak as well. And the Astral Weapons' 16th level ability. I'm assuming some magic items also fall into this category. Unless a lot of monsters have fear powers. That brings up another question. The justicar's 16th level ability grants...

But STATS are the character! Really, they're the key defining attributes. Why do you think their one of the first things you create? Yeah, I know personality is not completely stat dependent, but come on.... At first I was hesitant about 4e, but then the more I read the more I liked it...

I really don't want to believe you, but I think you're right. That really sucks.

Just found some more errors. I don't think there is a single 4e product that I've seen that hasn't included something dubious. In the extra encounters for KotS. The very first one has this, "Allow the players to place their miniatures on the road on the north edge of the tactical map." Then...

I think that's a good explanation and that it will work for a lot, but not all people. Also, they should have used a different word other than bloodied for half HP due to the connotations/implications of that word.

I know one man that is very happy with that particular change.

So, having a 16 as opposed to an 18 in an ability causes you to suck? If that's the case, then the system is busted. And if you suggest that every character has to start with a 20 in their key stat in order to compete then that's even worse. Because that means you MUST play a class that your...

That's easy for someone not totally optimizing for key ability that picks a race with a strength bonus. Dragonborn in the PHB, for example. But it really gets fun with the races in the MM. Picture minotaur or orc infernal pact warlocks wearing heavy armor. Scary! Heh, here's a possible...

I always write them in the books, as long as it's not a ton of info. But with 4e, seeing that the errata will probably be large, I'm going to wait for a second printing.

Sorry for the double post, but I thought you'd like to know that there is now Eberron content to convert KotS to that setting. It's probably a little late for you right now, though. http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/dufe/20080606a
