First of all thank you very much for all your scoops... I'm liking what I see... I do however have a question for you: What abilities match up with the bolded ability modifiers? I'm just trying to reverse engeener them... if you want you could just post the dragonborn and rogue's ability scores...

Someone has their hands on the store copy of Keep on the Shadowfell and is posting crunchy stuff... here's what we've found out so far (I might have missed something). Abilities Dragonborn Str 18, Con 12, Dex 10, Int 11, Wis 13, Cha 16 Rogue Str 12, Con 13, Dex 18, Int 11, Wis 10, Cha 16...

Important Note: The name of the class has changed from Skirmisher to Harrier to Auxiliary! I think this is the best name available that fits the concept of the class without stepping on the toes of an already defined term (i.e. the Skirmisher is monster role; Harrier is a racial trait of a...

You forgot "Power Source:mojo/Role:Swinger" (for those Austin Powers fanatasy settings out there) ;)

When developing a new class for 4e, what are the questions we should ask about the it? This thread is inspired by a response in the Which Class Would You Like to See? thread. 1) What does this class bring to the table that no one else can do? (Quote from Andy Collins)

QFT... this is exactly the type of question that needs to be asked when developing a new class.

I agree... and have a few ideas... but they're my preciouses... ;) How many times have I told you not to reveal my secret identity? Now how am I supposed to pretend to be a mild mannered freelancer by day and feared, but just "Catfish" by night.

I knew I was forgetting someone... oh well... it's a bit too late to go adding them into the mix.

I think that is why so many people want one... ;) And this too! ;)

I thought about doing Bard, Barbarian, Druid, Swordmage, etc... but I realized I'd leave out a whole bunch of classes, so instead of classes I used the power source/role matrix to allow people to slip those classes into one of those slots. I agree that one should begin with an archetype... its...

I completely understand... I was just using the shorthand given to us by our overlor... our friends at WotC... so what archetypes would you like to see? I'd like to see the barbarian, bard, ninja and swordmage for a variety of reasons, some of them because I just want to see what people can...

I'm wondering if this whole Intimidate debate might be solved by the idea of a "false positive" result. Sure you can use Intimidate on the duke, you might even convince him to give into your demands, however you have not proved yourself trustworthy and therefore although you get the aid...

So I'm wondering what class concepts (power source and role combo) you would like to see designed by 3PP (3rd Party Publishers) in the upcoming year? I know a few of these are covered in the PHB, but I fugured I'd include every concept and let you all decide. Also when you choose a class combo...

Good point about Tira... I suppose at this point the question becomes which is more likely... 5 trained skills for the warlock and 4 for the wizard or 4 for the warlock and 3 for wizards. I think that if fighters and paladins get 4, it is probably the bottom floor for skills. This is also a...

I just realized that the Tiefling Wizard has an extra language... maybe that is where the other trained skill went? Perhaps you can spend one of a trained skill to acquire another language? This would give wizards 4 trained skills! Tieflings: Languages: Common, choice of one other Tielfing...

I actually don't mind the automatic failure for Intimidate b/c I'm reading it as a sample skill challenge template and not a hard and fast rule for all negotions. This particular sample has a duke who does not respond well to Intimidate. I think this opens up a lot of possibilities for...

Short and sweet... but don't they know good things come in threes... they should give us a couple more examples... just to... umm... make sure we get it... yeah that's the ticket. ;)

The Skill Challenges excerpt is up!

The class table's skill section needs to be fixed. Clerics get 4 and Rangers get 5 Trained feats (one of which must be Dungeoneering or Nature) This also means the Eladrin ranger has an extra trained skill (History). Does this mean the Eladrin gains skill training in the History skill? It...

I'm also wondering if the Paladin's Divine Strength adds the Paladin's Str. mod. to damage. effectively doubling his Str. for one attack.
