Beat me to it. Also, the cascading effects of that life drain are quite nasty. Makes you more vulnerable to further applications of it, and then there's that soul reaping...pretty scary. Plus the whole thing makes it harder for you to recover from future battles, taking a huge chunk out of the...

I think of Seven Samurai. The bandits regularly raid this one village, and the villagers normally pay them off. But this time the harvest isn't as goood, so they wouldn't be able to survive. They find it easier to hire poor wandering samurai (adventurers) than to pay them off this time. Or...

Being in South Korea, I guess I'm SOL.

death? Nono! I meant cake!

Mmm..sorry, somewhere halfway through that post kinda got away from me. I feel like mommy and daddy are fighting here with this split between Paizo and WotC. I know which parent I'm going to end up with too, but I was hoping I'd still be able to visit with the other one.

On the one hand, I can understand Paizo's frustration with the license being late and their two biggest projects being taken away from them. Without Dungeon and Dragon, and without the license, they have little other recourse in remaining alive as a company. On the other hand, there's a streak...

Quick question: How many jerks do you game with? From the sounds of things, people must game entirely with a bunch of purile, abusive jerkasses who like to fireball their own party members. If that's the case, I'd say get a new group before railing against the Warlord for opening up new...

*shudders* I just delved into the Paizo forums. I'd heard rumors, but...yeesh. Wizards' biggest mistake in the buildup to 4e was axing the print versions of Dungeons and Dragons, and creating such a strong rallying point for the most vocal and irrational members of the community. I had to make...

I remember playing a monk at high level who had a cloak of resistance, periapt of wisdom, ring on each finger, some magic hat I can't even remember...with every slot filled, we joked that he looked more like a pimp than an ascetic. Went on to found the Sacred Order of Bling. Good times. But I...

You win the internet.

I hate to drag the old "you can house rule it" argument kicking and screaming into this, but here it is: They have mentioned that the new defense system makes it easy to make new maneuvers, you just have to make sure you aren't making them TOO easy and stealing the fighter's thunder. But trip...

*shrug* I don't think it's that big of a deal either. I find it vaguely amusing when someone, myself included, makes the mistake.

The least they could have done was change the previous king of misspelling: the Rouge...I mean Rogue. I guess no info. Also, no official stats for dragonborn either, at least none that I've seen. I want to see a dragonborn warlord!

Warlord, not Warlock Don't feel bad, I've done it myself. I expect we'll be making this correction a lot in the next few years.

The Emo is strong with this one.

Surviving decapitation? That's so anime.

I'd say that the fighter interferes with the other's ability. A mark requires a certain degree of cooperation from the enemy, even if it's unconcious and detrimental. The fighter is *forcing* the enemy to focus on him. Two people using the same ability don't give the enemy the special sort of...

Right. Because hitting your friend and forcing them to attack you is a great way to go into combat. Your allies will be unable to attack the enemy and all of your abilities will be focused on PKing. But your enemies won't be able to mark your team, which is what really counts. I love how...

Why is everyone assuming one mark will replace the previous one? Personally I think it would make much more sense, be more balanced, and easier to rationalize if you could not mark a target who has already been marked.
