I must admit to being a little bummed that I can't get some old school pdfs, as of this moment. I've always had designs of snagging the Drow, Slavers, and Giants series. But I'm not too upset, as I'm pretty sure that content will be back in some fashion. I don't think removing the pdfs will...

I don't like how warlocks are forced to pick their at-wills based on their pact. I think they should be free to just pick whichever two they like. If this means some warlocks don't know Eldritch Blast, so be it.

Ok then. :) Thanks!

I'm wondering if the number of APs you can spend per tier. Specifically, can you spend 2 APs at paragon levels and 3 APs at epic levels? My players and I were under the impression that you could, but I've double checked things and can't find a mention of that. I was just wondering if someone...

I used to poo poo PCs fighting gods. I used to think it was over the top munchkin silliness. I think playing games with larger than life but serious heroes - like Exalted and Scion - changed my opinion of that. In any case, 4e is the first edition where I find the prospect of fighting a deity...

Well, he's the boss of D&D, so he could well be evil... ;) But I bet there's no hint in there, either. hmm ... I bet you got it right. Can't wait to find out!

I've gotten every power up to level 20 finished. I just need to do level 17 encounter powers (which will require a bit more thinking from me :p ), and the paragon paths (although those are pretty easy). I'm saving the epic powers for when I have a bit more experience with that level of play...

I decided to go with it doing 1[w]+Cha damage on a hit and pushing the target if the target is marked. The only thing that concerns me right now is that paladins with Vindicator's Calling using Valiant Strike get at least a +2 to hit a monster marked by the paladin. That's pretty darn nice for...

Tide of Iron has the requirement that you need a shield, so you can only use it with one-handed weapons. Daunting Strike can be used with one-handed or two-handed weapons (it doesn't require a shield), so I felt that it need to be "balanced" by doing less damage. Although, now that I think of...

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're asking.

As DM, I wouldn't mind if the wizard/invoker/druid summons a creature out of combat in order to get info, or have the creature perform some non-combat task. Of course, this uses a daily power up, so the summoner may balk at the cost. But there are roleplaying opportunities there IMO.

Well, I think you'd still have the same problems with V-type classes. They way I'd do it is make Con the primary stat for warlocks, Int for infernal locks, con for star locks, and either Int or a combo of Int/Cha for fey locks (kinda like a resourceful warlord). I want to make rangers Dex...

Yeah the redeemer and protector are Wisdom secondary. The vindicator is Strength secondary. The way I want them to work is that they are all basically defenders. The Protector's Call is the best calling for straight-up defendering. The Redeemer's call if you want a good side dose of Leader -...

Ah yes, I see what you mean now.

Interesting. I also remember reading something about how Orcus can bestow powers on his followers in a manner similar to divine magic but, because he's not actually a god, it's not actually divine magic. I wonder if there will be relation between what you suggest and this passage. I suspect...

Thanks for the feedback, Garthanos. I'm thinking of changing Redeemer's Calling to: That seems like it would help boost LoH a bit in the redeeming paladin's own "saving the world" sorta way. :)

Yeah, it'll be interesting to see how they approach that, if this is the case. :) I think the Arcane source can duplicate many of the trappings of other sources. For example, wizards and swordmages have many elemental (in the sense of fire, lightning, acid, etc.) themed spells. There are also...

I was reading "Beyond the Mottled Tower," February's installment of the Scales of War AP. I found this passage in a sidebar: The emphasis is mine. Sure, conjurer is just a generic word for wizard, but so is sorcerer or invoker, and those have specific D&D meanings... What if conjurer is...

You'll be happy when I tell you that Spirit's Fang and Spirit's Shield can both be used as OAs, then... :)

Even if Burlew wanted to change to 4e only (he definitely doesn't), I think he's missed out on a lot of the gaming gags with an edition switch. Elan would still be around - he'd be statted up as a warlord (I would have loled if Elan shouted "I'm a warlord!"). The PCs would all have been pushed...
