What's the verdict with the cavalier smite - is it just another encounter (W) die or something a bit more cool? Thanks in advance (Yes yes I know - too many paladin questions from me :blush: )

True, but these powers work both on foot and mounted. It doesn't get a hard-coded mount but the pal/cav can be built very nicely along those lines. Ah, except for the lance...

Hey, um, what's the virtue of valor benefit please?

Cool, thanks :)

Q1) Are their more virtues for paladin/cavaliers, i.e. compassion or justice? Q2) What's the gist of the Paladins righteous radiance & shield? Ok, that's 3 questions ;-)

I quite like the idea that evil paladins are blackguards. I don't think it's desirable to grant open access to all classes regardless of a characters temperament. I for one accept that my divine champion sworn to justice for all is blocked from becoming a blackguard of tyranny, for now... ;-)

Very nice. Here's my thoughts: Name "Paladin Cavalier" = cool. My first proper Paladin was one of these for a while, until we agreed the powers were too much and dropped the cavalier part. Str & Cha, at last how it should be. Dropping wis cures the mechanical MAD, but lack of wisdom (as...

Thanks guys. For the case in question I'll rule the rogue has made a dash to cover and skillfully slunk around the pillar (without penalty). No need to stub the players toe over a trifle.

As the title say. Got a player pull this doozy ;) His character used a move action to move 6, then another move action to move 2, and hid as part of the second move. Does he suffer the -5 penalty to stealth or not?

Hi all, The one big thing I want to hear is all about the upcoming Paladin/Cavalier. What do we know (or guess) about this?? My hope is a str/cha build with the bad case of MAD finally cured. Seriously, the Paladin has been needing stats stretched everywhere since go. Beats me how they're...

No. Simple as that.

Exactly. This info is on my DM characters sheet.

Hooray for the Paladin/Cavalier. Great to see them back. Fingers crossed it's the classic str then cha build. It would be a disappointment if it was a cha primary build.

From the post 1 link: "Bludgeon Expertise: +1 feat bonus to attack rolls with hammers and maces. In addition, any time you push with a weapon attack using a mace or hammer, you gain a +1 feat bonus to that push."

Paladins - I'm hanging out to find out what's happening with them. The Knight looks a good alternative however. I've always been a paladin fan, and to be honest I haven't been won over by the characters born from the original 4.0 class. The v-split wiping half the powers/paragon paths from...

I know there were rules for smacking combatants fleeing battle, but not if they, err "fled" forward through your front ranks to your second-liners.

The real issue was this in 2E (and correct me if I'm wrong, 1E too) Fighter, Cleric & Thief were the frontline in a battle with a Troll and Orcs. On the Troll's initiative there was a gap in the frontline so it moved through with impunity and tore apart the Wizard. Been there, done that. Not so...

Thanks folks, more than enough answers. I'll largely leave it to the player to decide the details, although page 54 (can't use powers tied up) is our starting point.

Hi all, The character of a new player is a human Infernal Warlock (level 3, no equipment) who is a soon to be rescued prisoner of a more powerful Warlock. The question is, how can you keep a Warlock prisoner when the game no longer has vocal, somatic & material components? It seems to me that...

Alignment is merely a moral structural tool for players (including dm) in a game of imagined fantasy. 4E is particularly forgiving about discarding it if it's unnecessary to your game, as there isn't any mechanical consequences. So really the power is with you the player and your group about...
