Grats on the publication, PC. I'll check it out once I get Underdark. I haven't played 4E in about 6 months, I'm really missing it.

I can't say I'm happy vertical teleport is a-ok now. Perhaps this will be my first houserule.

Taclords make awesome nova machines. Just make sure you grab a luckblade asap. As others have said, Taclords shine in Melee heavy parties. If you don't have at least two other melee party members, I'd say you're better off playing a bard or cleric.

This. And this. 4E has shifted primary focus to combat, however. Some people have issues with that (from personal experience, 2 of my good friends dislike the emphasis placed on cohesive parties). As long as you're not a jerk, or screw with the other players fun to much by being obtuse...

:( Besides the fact that you insulted thousands of people with that phrase, he's not really even in favor of 4Ed since he's calling for a new edition.

One of the two major human kingdoms has been on and off at war with a neighboring Elvish Kingdom for centuries. Elves are kept as slaves. The Elven nation just slaughter any humans they capture, since a large portion of the population views them as vermin. The monstrous races keep slaves...

My first RPG wasn't DnD, however, my first DnD character was an human cleric who made it all the way to 5th level in AD&D 2ed.

My favorite product for 3.X was the FRCS. It's probably the best RPG product I've ever purchased. However, the Realms are not my favorite setting. I didn't want to like Eberron (halflings riding dinosaurs?!?!?), avoided it for months, but was quickly won over when a friend let me borrow his...

My cousin gave me "The Plane Below" which is great because I was just going to buy it. My gaming group got me a few different Cthulu christmas CDs (which I'm afraid to listen to) and gift certificates to my FLGS. My wife (just married this month, sounds weird still) gave me a warcraft...

I agree. I ran a 9th level one shot to test some solo monster mechanics for an adventure I may write, and I used a 5k XP budget. Combat lasted forever (3 1/2 hours) but it was because they had 2 solos (one brute, one skirmisher) to blow through plus assorted minions, 2 controllers, and a...

As a player: Current 3.5 game: Killing Yuanti to reseed the missing Treants. 4E game I had to leave because of game day change: Exploring why we can't remember the past five years.

My two highest characters ever in DnD (any edition) were both 13th level. One was a Human Monk, the other a human Ranger2/Rogue5/Fighter2/Spymaster4. I DM more than I play, and the highest I've ever had a party reach was about 15th level. That campaign went from First Sememster of my...

Usually handwave for mundane + whatever arms, armor, cloaks, and the like. Arcane/spellcraft check for the others. Also houseruled identify in 3.X down to 1 1g pearl and 1 minute of research. No need to derail the game in order to figure out what the shiny new boots do.

I had a long post, but the forums ate it. Instead of typing it all out again, I'll simply say Sacrifice to Caiphon is the second (or third) most important Star Lock feat IMHO. Student of Caiphon is a great paragon path as well.

In general, yes I do place them in the two highest scores unless I have an overriding reason not to bump them (perhaps if I'm a rogue or something I might think about it).

Awww, they're doing Oriental dragons before Gem Dragons? Boo.

I'm at work, but tagging this to see the results once I get home. I also wonder like the prior poster why you chose 4 instead of 5 PCs? Thanks for showing your work.

QFE. I had a long post about this, but right before I posted, I saw Dausuul covered my main points.

I love Eberron, but Kalashtar are very setting dependent, IMHO.

Amusingly, the majority of people who bothered to vote in the poll voted that the system was broken while the majority of people who posted their feelings seem to disagree. I think the math was broken, and WoTC patched it with feats. I disliked their fix (feat tax), and just give everyone...
