4e tends to ignore the 3rd dimension, and this is another case of that. When you choose a square for something, the system assumes you'll be picking a square on a battlemat, not a location in the world that mat represents. For that reason, and for the sheer brokenness of being able to teleport...

The teleportation section on page 286 refers to it as movement twice, so I'd uess that it is. Seems kinda strange to me, but there it is.

It doesn't take a rules lawyer to figure this out, just a dictionary. Unused: hasn't been touched Using: currently active Used: done with Seems pretty straightforward that Crescendo Sword cannot regain itself.

My thoughts exactly. Currently players who are looking to play one of these are likely to swap from Dwarf to Wilden. Having 0 racial feats makes it a really bad idea for any character who has dwarven feats.

When a table disagrees with text, use the text.

Only named bonuses do not stack. TWF is unnamed, so it stacks with anything. Weapon Focus is a feat bonus, so will not stack with any other feat bonuses. Brutal Accuracry is not a bonus, it's additional damage (like sneak attack or a ranger's quarry). It will stack with anything.

The secondary attack isn't a burst, it's "a secondary attack against each target within 3 squares".

Depends on who you ask. :) There was once a customer service response to the effect that you should ignore vertical distance and just say "it's high enough." If you go by the literal wording, blasts are flat because they are X by X, but bursts are 3-d because they extend in all directions from...

Reskin the Daggermaster as a "Rider on the Arcane Razor" or soemsuch and you're set. The powers you get will still suck for your class, but the abilities will work fine.

Just the normal damage. There are monsters which do more damage to characters who are out of surges, and they say so in their description.

I can't imagine anyone in our group ever doing it, but if they do, I'll probably go with the minimum of 1 rule as well.

For the numbers, I was only quoting what's been said in this thread before. For defenders not taking more attacks, I guess I'm just spoiled (or actually vexed, since I'm GM) by the defender in our group. He does his job very well. He's by no means the only person who gets attacked, and...

NADs are attacked less than AC by quite a bit. Defenders are attacked less than other PCs fairly frequently. If you're not a defender, you're not getting attacked as often. when you are attacked, the odds are decent it's against AC. I might be tempted to take the +4 to Will for many characters...

Assuming I ever get to play at that level instead of GM, I won't have. almost certainly the +2 to all 3 feat, and one iteration of the +4 to bump my weakest defense. But I prefer feats that are fun (i.e. let me do stuff) rather than feats that sit there doing nothing.

Doesn't matter whether it's 0 or -1, the effect is the same: the enemy doesn't move.

If you pick a power that uses a stat you have a 0 or negative modifer in, the problem isn't the system, it's the choice. It's like complaining that multiclassing fighter doesn't work when your wizard has an 8 Strength. Just don't do it, or at least expect what you get.

Legal? definitely. Right? not in the slightest.

Claw attacks can knock you unconscious if you're beaten badly enough. :)

Worst case scenario: all works as believed and the archlich is truly Vecna's Pimp. I think it's safe to assume that the God of Undead and Secrets will very rapidly figure this out, and then be smart enough not to get in a stand up fight with the guy. So if anything, having an archlich in the...

I was running the epic adventure from Dungeon and had planned on replacing the dracolich in it with another controller dragon from draconomicon. While I haven't seen one in play, I've seen other stunners and agree that they're unfun.
