The point of having tiers laid out and codified is so that gms can better plan for these different sorts of adventures. That's a positive goal for the design of a turn based system, and just saying 'these things happen at various times' is completly missing the point of it. That's the idea-...

Maybe they should have an "Under" power source for powers like that 22nd level daily. It's objectivly worse than feywild sojurn for crying out loud, it's a 22nd level daily standard while sojurn is a 10th level encounter move! I mean, who thought that power was viable?

Compared to what exactly.

Yeah if anything, races should be less about trek-style humans with head bumps, and more about genuinly wierd creatures. We have enough demihumans, the game should focus on non-humans for new races.

Again, it is completly absurd to suggest that this is a valid criteria for a term like "can't". It's like asking somebody to go to the movies, and they say they can't because they have a shift at work that day, and you saying "actually you could quit your job so you shouldn't say you can't do...

I honestly can't tell if you're joking or not, sufficed to say what you're talking about is a bizzare fantasy especially considering the unemployment rate in the US atm. There are plenty of people who just plain can't find a group locally, playing semantics doesn't change that. What on earth...

Not only have paizo expressed no interest in 4th edition products, but they've shown no evidence that they can seriously design an rpg. Dual statting products would also be a huge undertaking. As for customer feedback, i'd love to see what paizo's base would have to say about the best way...

Well maybe having access to these earthbergs or being invited onto them could be a sign of relative prestige. Perhaps the emperor has guests (albeit not very important guests) who are arrayed in fine pavilions in the lowest berg of the gardens. Kind of like a garden party, but on a scale so...

Just imagine when the emperor was a boy, his favorite stories were about the famous iron blade swordmages, a heroic school which taught it's proponents what the tales about them described as the 'ultimate unbeatable sword-style'. These trashy tales were of niche appeal to the people of the...

That's a really dodgy type of logic. I can't go to disneyland every week. Sure, I could do it, but it would bankrupt me. Hence, I can't go. People aren't making an excuse. They can't do it. You can speculate, but you're wrong. They can't form a group. Can't. They can't take time off work, they...

The bonus values aer a bit weak. I don't see why they could not play around with some more interesting options. For instance, you could have rooms that you could spend a healing surge in, in return for a skill bonus you could discharge at any time until your next extended rest. This could...

This is pete. Pete was a player chararacter in a one-shot I ran, set in the same world as my regular games. He and some other strange sorts escaped from a forboding dungeon in a dire city. Pete was one of the strangest of the lot- he could mould flesh and skin with his magic, creating bizzare...

I've been running a VTT 4e game since it came out, and before that, a bunch of us played in a VTT sendoff game for 3e. I play with friends, even if they're mostly internet friends, they're still friends and we still socialise and tell jokes and everything. We don't use skype, but we tend to RP a...

In a similar vein, if one day you burn the eggs you're cooking for breakfast, would you consider hitting yourself in the head with your frying pan? You know, to teach the eggs a lesson?

I think there's plenty of room for zehir to be a god of assasins, secret cults, ancient crumbling ziggurauts in the jungle, ect. One of the funniest bits of good/bad gming I ever saw was one of my friends pestering my other friend who was DMing for us, to run an extra session for his evil...

I hate to breka it to you guys but WoW is dungeons and dragons for millions of people around the world. It has completly eclipsed and replaced it. There is nothing in D&D that would be a better mmo that wow, or somehow more authentic, WoW is the king of generic fantasy and that's all she wrote...

As for the main article, I don't mind them taking risks on concepts, you need to do that if you're going to get more interesting content. If you end up with the joker or that wierd one about crippling people occasinally. . . .so be it. However, the poison itself resides in a pretty dodgy...

I have a few i'd consider quite rare. *Coming back from the dead as a pretty common and not particularly impressive event. *Magical items that can do super crazy things. Not just items, but game breaking concept items like a sphere of anihilation or a deck of many things. *Settings...

It should be quite easy for them in a few months when 5e launches in the new 'Blue Box' that doubles as a planetary-scale atmospheric imploder!!!!! That's right, WOTC is plotting to steal all of our air, so that only people with a Fifth Edition box set are able to breathe!!!

I voted both, although the poll has terrible options and deserves any vote stuffing it gets. I'm like a lot of people in that when 4e came out after a brief time myself and everyone I know switched systems and never came back. We actually started and ran a 3e campaign as a kind of send off...
