Same expwerience here.

Nice tweaks posted here. CapnZapp, if I would give a monsters two actions per round, I would drop the +5 to saving throws, it's just too much.

Mainly as Keterys said. I'm not sure if temp HPs last "until you take a short rest" or 5 minutes. I think the latter, since this is consistent with all Power's durations. But maybe it's one of those rules' oddities/botches.

Finding Mushrooms and dealing with the grove trap Today I ran the Finding Mushrooms Skill Challenge It was awesome. It's important to let the players know that the creatures beyond the mist are afraid of them and at the same time that they will eventually come, so they know they can stall...

Even though I'm already subscribed for the entire campaign, it's nice to see the good support you guys give. Thank you very much.

Yes, party should be 5th level.

Well, I'll run it today (Monday session was moved). But I have a bonus, I've detailed more the On Lookout activities, to make them more interesting and to reflect that Insight and Stealth are Secondary Skills (modifying the post above). Having made this SC, I realized that the underlying...

Mmmm, I think you missed the point (if I understood you correctly). The thing is that ongoing effects don't work well, and conditions in general, don't work well when you impose them in the middle of the target's turn. Exactly. And this comes from the fact that (save ends) effects are valued...

Well, you could plan enconuters in a less deadly way. Kind of reminds me of a Burning Wheel mechanic: "Ok guys, this encounter is where you hold the goblin horde and buy time for the caravan to escape. If you win, you halt the horde for this day, if you fail, you end up unconscious on the side...

I agree with CapnZapp, it seems pretty simple to me. Add the minons, don't affect the budget. Listo.

Mmm, let's see: - it's an attack - it has a target - whether it hit or not, if it uses the target's defenses or not, it doesn't matter because: The Fighter marks if he attacks a target. That's it. And it seems there's no doubt that Aid Another is an attack, against a target. Does it make...

What Starfox and Ryujin said, basically. The game values (save ends) effects as higher than (until start/end of XXX turn). And that simply is not true in several scenarios: - when the (save ends) is taken during your turn (pointed above) - when on a Daily hit you make the first save, and you...

I was wondering the same thing, I think he marks. To reality and balance check, note that all other defenders could mark a target and still do an Aid Another, so no extra benefit there.

Ongoing effects havo sooooo many issues... it would be nice to have an errata. Or at least come up with a solid ruling behind the, Like the problem you have when a Missed Daily is more effective than a Saved Hit.

Even if it's not official, it's a good houserule. It keeps numbers in check.

Then why rule it in a way that you are not comfortable on keeping?

Dwarves reduce the distance they are pulled, but when there are no distances given, when they are pulled, slid or pushed to a certain space, that's it, Dwarves suffer the same consequences as any other.

I really don't care RAW or RAI, that's obviously wrong and I won't allow it. Don't need any fancy explanation. Choose your "mode" at the beginning of the round, 1H or 2H, and that will be your bonus until the start of your next turn.

Ok, I've finished doing this Skill Challenge. And I've edited the previous post to show it in it's final version. The SC has become a mini game. Although the explanation is lengthy, the SC is pretty straightforward to run, at least in my own playtesting. I will run it with my group on Monday...

Encounters are balanced for 5 characters. Some DMs leave Torrent in the background, other make her jump in when things get difficult. If you're going to make her fully active, then count it as another PC and, in the case of a 6 member party, adjust the encounters accordingly. Yes, you could do...
