I believe I had read previously that the Sha'ir of Al-Qadim fame is included in the Elemental book.

Another vote for Ptolus. $10/mo from Feb-July then the last $50 in August made it pretty painless. Worth every penny.

That role reversal has started getting referred to as the Self Rescuing Princess and both my daughters (3 1/2 and 6) would totally fit that category :) A lot of the women I game with started w/Vampire (I know my wife did), and they all prefer 4E to any other D&D edition. My wife enjoys minis...

Funny I'm 35 and I've played for 24 years now and looking at 131 in the 4E DMG, I see a 2 page picture of a giant undead army nearly in my face. Call me crazy, but yeah, that is pretty cool. I'd hope I had a Paladin and Cleric behind me :) Also I completely agree, way too many pointy ears in...

SWG also had the ability to setup bounties for bounty hunters to pick up. Go take someone out for cash :) My wife said until there is a Mac client she isn't going to get SW:ToR. She still has a PC but we're both getting Mac laptops in the spring. I'm already on a Mac Mini, which will be...

My thinking is simple. They are planning a sandbox MMO. Has there been a sandbox MMO more popular than Star Wars Galaxies? I don't believe so. SWG was badly mismanaged, but the MMO market has shown sandbox style MMOs to be drastically less popular than them park style. For those who aren't...

When Faen in Arcana Unearthed/Evolved metamorphosed into Sprytes they also retained their reach 1, but they also still took up a 5' square, even tho they were also size Tiny.

Maybe those players didn't do a good job of building their guy. Our Revenge of the Giants game is on hold due to the DM being in grad school, but my Halfling Artful Dodger Daggermaster does pretty nuts damage. He told me he basically has to make sure to always include some HP boosted enemy or...

*puts on his "I'm with Umbran" shirt* Yeah that's the real question of the evening. I don't mind if someone isn't charismatic but they're playing the party diplomat, so long as there's at least a basic attempt. You know, give me a line or 2 and toss a d20. If I'm playing someone who is very...

IIRC since it is a fear attack it works against Will, so that helps it not miss as much. At low Paragon you have a slight deficiency. I'm sure by Epic it feels less useful, but it is also "no action" so if it works great, if not, you aren't really out anything. My Daggermaster uses it to good...

AU/AE is still my favorite d20 offshoot. I thought it was great that the only overlap between the 2 books were Humans. All the other races were new and while the classes were discernible archetypes that fit well against D&D, it wasn't just another cluster of fighters, thieves, wizards and...

Now next combat you should have thrown the hole up on a wall opposite your enemies and let the elephant come out and trample them :)

But people have paid money on multiple characters to be able to fly wherever they want. One of the prime selling points of the last xpac was that you could buy the ability to fly all thru Azeroth. If they want to limit the new Pandaria area to not have flight allowed until max, that is one...

I was reading all the info as it came out last weekend, I just hadn't seen the trailer yet. Even after watching the trailer, my reaction is still that this is the first time there is a WoW expansion and my take on things ranges from "meh" to "that's awful". Very disappointed and I've been...

We had a minotaur warden in our Dark Sun game and he worked out great. Piles of enemies around him that can't get away, taking consistent damage from him and my wizard would pretty freely drop aoe attacks centered on him and he'd just deal w/the damage or pray my War Wizard feat helped me miss...

One of the 4 strikers in the party should take one for the team and roll a real defender.

How is slow not a controlling status effect? If you have Expert Sneak, that gains you CA as well. I can understand holding it as a backup, but if I have a turn where I have 2 enemies right next to me, I can split up a Low Slash onto one and possibly status effect both in one round. Or if it's...

Funnily enough, I have a Halfling Artful Dodger Daggermaster in a Revenge of the Giants campaign and I had the same question you did about a month ago when we leveled. I replaced Dazing w/Stunning as well. I think my other 2 were Low Slash and Snap Shot and since they were both minor actions I...

That's why I like the 4E Alignment scale. You have the 2 extremes (Lawful Good and Chaotic Evil) that are the epitomes of their sides and then those who are merely Good or Evil, not devoted to the extreme. Then you have all those people in the middle who are Unaligned and free to chart their...

Sadly my 4E group just got canceled till probably May due to our DM's grad school classes kicking his butt hard. When we get back to our nearly 14th level game I'll make sure to point this out and try to get an Expertise and Imp Defenses free for each of us. My Rogue will be very happy to pick...
