So far in our games: Bugbear - 1 Dragonborn - 1 Dwarf - 1 Eladrin - 3 Elf - 1 Genasi - 1 Halfling - 1 Half-elf - 1 Human - 1 Warforged - 1 I'm sure the PHB2 races will find their way in as new games start and old characters die/retire.

He just got through a tough encounter with a pit fiend.

@ Mad Zagyg: Was your whole game store laughing hysterically when they first released the half-orc, goliath, and shifter back in 3e? Or is it only when they're together along with a gnome and deva (another glowing celestial in a long line of glowing celestials) that they become too much for you...

I voted for all classes. I think I was least excited about the shaman after the preview, but upon reading the full class I am pretty impressed. I like the flexibility the spirit companion offers, and when you're not using it just put it away and get to work with your other powers. I'm gonna...

Borders had a copy of PHB2 out today, which I snatched up immediately. Now to digest...

Hey Trevor, thanks for the heads-up! It's cool of you to communicate for us any signals you find amongst all the noise. Much appreciated!

I really liked this article. I sometimes go on too long about certain subjects, or try to fit in too much information in one sitting. My PCs often lose a lot of the details I throw at them because there's too much to retain. By shortening descriptions I can try to hook my players into asking...

Rogue! Anyone get Avenger? I didn't go back and try to fudge it...

I think the 4e MM says that medusa blood will remove the petrification.

I thought a creature or effect had a space, not spaces, and that a large creature or wall had one space comprised of many squares. I don't have my books around so I can't confirm that, but if I'm right then no matter how many squares you moved through, you only moved through the space once.

Hey Citan, thanks for the preview! The Wildmage PP sounds really cool - I was planning on playing a dragonborn sorcerer next, but I might change my mind now. I love random yet universally beneficial effects!

If it's a light shield it's fine. He could still wield a weapon, but not benefit from the shield. I hope it's not the alternative. :heh:

Look at it this way... Weapon/Implement Expertise = 3.x Dodge that doesn't suck. :erm: Dodge was the gateway feat to lots of other good stuff, but the feat itself sucked pretty hard. This is like Dodge, without being a pre-req for all those other feats, except it doesn't suck. It actually...

Awesome! I'd seen the cover for AV2, but not that adventure or Primal Power (gotta love Steve Prescott)! Very nice indeed.

That gold dragon looks like the dog you all know that barks and barks and barks until it's ready to pass out, complete with wild bugged-out eyes! The scorpion is OK but that differently colored tail made my raise an eyebrow. Looks better than that hellwasp from ATG, but that's not saying much...

I'm of the opinion that it's just the case of a better power sneaking in unnoticed. I kind of thought that Spider Climb was triple-mild-weaksauce anyway. Or maybe not? MP's 1st lvl fighter daily Lasting Threat is the exact same as one from the PHB but with an extra cookie at the end.

I ran the Age of Worms and Savage Tide APs, and both campaigns were full of PC death. In the early adventures the AoW killed my entire party* one at a time until they were all replaced/raised from the dead! Once the PCs got into mid-high levels the casualties slowed down, with Revivify and...

I read that and thought "Hmmmm, interesting bit of... fluff?" JPL may be on to something here... shadow & ki for PHB 3?

Weapon Expertise specifies that you get the bonus with any power with the weapon keyword. I can only imagine that Implement Expertise says the same for implement powers.

"Bah!"? Aren't you supposed to mod him for trolling? :devil:
