Forked from: Secondary ability benefits - why the wizard inconsistency? No they aren't. There is no way that anyone in their right mind could constue Clerics to be better controllers than wizards. They have 2 powers that are marginally better at dealing AoE damage to enemies and have no...

Artificer quickly gets broken when it is combined with archmage(easily done by spending a single feat and all its powers are arcane spells). The Healing token as an encounter power means every 5 minutes you can turn 1 healing surge of your own into 2x healing surge value + more. Now take a...

A large creature inhabits a 2x2 area on the grid. I.E. it inhabits 4 squares. When it moves laterally or longitudinally it leaves two squares. When it moves diagonally it leaves 3 squares. A huge creature inhabits a 3x3 area on the grid, so it leaves 3 when moving laterally or longitudinally...

Well, then you have two options. Option 1: Murder him in his sleep. Unload a Daily/Encounter CDG into him in the middle of the night. He is unlikely to survive. Especially because he wont be wearing armor, will be helpless, and you know how many hit points you need to do to kill him. If your...

You mind if I fork it?

You could get Solid Sound, but that seems only like a good idea for wizards or other classes which are going to have a thunder/lightning option every single round. +2 to one defense 1/encounter when you use a single limited use power just doesn't seem worth it to me over something that actually...

I think you need to reread the PHB. Wizards have the best control powers at every level that you gain powers.

Exactly, for the low low cost of 1d6+int you can move all friendlies and enemies in the blast 0-6 squares. Its really quite handy for moving friendlies into flanking and separating enemies from their friends. Its especially good if your friends get resistance gear against thunder damage. E.G...

I noticed this as well. But i am not sure of a way to rectify it. If you look at most of the other powers its control and debuff abilities that are modified by secondary stats [primarily, then damage). And the wizard just doesn't have a lot of stuff that can be easily modified. As well, there...

Yes to all.

Yea, but for minions, damage isn't as important as frequency. You can dragons breath once/encounter. You can thunderwave or whatever the vs ref fire one every single round

Its because you can attack different defenses.

Try resetting your password.

No, they are both both. Since they can both be a power that deals damage and a power which doesn't. If you're willing to be mutable with that definition to allow your interpretation of it then you also must be mutable about what is and isn't a target.

Sure Strike is not a power that deals damage when it misses. When it misses it is a power that deals no damage. Ergo, if you have an ability that keys off a power doing damage it will not apply if the power does not. Such when Stinking Cloud its targeted against multiple creatures it indeed is...

If there are no targets in the burst then it has no targets. Ergo it must be an obstacle since it does not effect targets.

Its right there where it says "into" and not "through" No, you cannot walk into the square adjacent to the cliff edge. You can jump into that square(fleetingly). You can climb into the square below that square. You can walk into the square below that square(but you cannot push vertically). But...

The utility says its epic, but its a paragon feat and can replace any 12th or higher utility power you have. So if you have a poor paragon utility you could pick that instead. Three feat requirement, 2 of them good, one of them not so good. Pretty darn good Utility power though! [immediate...

Only at the end destination. If you cannot move through enemies at all then "clear path" also means you can't push over edges(since it could only enter that square by flying) though difficult terrain with a low move enemy (since it could not walk through that square even when shifting) and...

Only the strongest damage from an overlapping zone applies. So that isn't a big deal. Its just broken when you start yo-yo'ing enemies in and out of it without spell accuracy. Forced movement ignores occupied squares. So long as the end point is unoccupied there is no problem with shoving...
