Sword and Board No, he´s a Warlock.

Streetwise also folds in the Knowledge: Royalty and Nobility

No, in fact, that´s one of the benefits of having one of those classes in the group. Your healing surges heal more.

I´m the only defender in a party of ine striker and two contollers (4 in total) So far, I´ve been holding the melee enemies and receiving heavy damage (I also dabble in the Cleric class so I have some healing powers). But I don´t feel I´m doing the most efficient thing, the enemies seldom want...

No he doesn´t. That happens only on an OA, which this is not. This is a "melee basic attack against that enemy as an immediate interrupt".

I think it´s a move if the enemy starts adjacent to the fighter. And an attack if he ends his movement adjacent to the fighter and attacks.

Totally agree with the OP.

But the Combat Challenge Attack that is provoked by shifting doesn´t prevent the enemy from finishing it´s shift. Since it is not an AoO.

Apologies for the double post, but to continue my learning on this class, let´s see what are the differente scenarios I could have: Make a Combat Challenge Attack (CCA): only on marked enemies, provoked by shifting (not moving) or making an attack that doesn´t include me, only one per turn...

The OP was a real eye opener for me. Excellent post, and I agree with it in my limited game experience.

How can a Fighter imporoved it? What would be too good at keeping a foe tied down? I found myself beaten up and going down quite frequently.

So, if I understand correctly, any feat or feature that improves my AoOs (like Blade Opportunist) won´t matter if my marked enemy shifts and he recieves my "inmediate inetrrupt basic melee attack". Bug or Feature?

Thanks, I didn´t realized that I could mark more than one enemy at a time.

Ok, so Combat Challenge allows you to make a "basic melee attack as an inmediate interrupt". So, this does not count as an AoO, and does not benefit from Combat Superiority. But I´m not limited to one per enemiés turn. Is this so? In that case... the fighter isn´t so sticky as I thought.

Our DM let´s us use this power only when it´s usefull. It´s quite in line with other utility powers which essentialy adds HPs, or prevent a hit. Making the Wizard use the power and still being hit, is rather annoying.

I´m a Human Fighter, multiclassed with Cleric in a party of 2 Wizards and 1 Warlock. I had Covering Attack as an Encounter Power, but since my buddies aren´t usually in melee, I don´t find it useful. Now I´m 2nd level and I´m planning to retrain it. My problem with the other encounter powers...

Yep, that´s what I meant in the OP.

How is that so? Is that consensus or a rule or FAQ? Yet that´s a rule, and not fluff. Isn´t it? And it´s quite explicit too, it says "the holder of the item runs the risk of activating the item accidentally by speaking the word in normal conversation". Speaking a word, IIRC, by the rules, is...

Command word activation says that it takes a Standard Action to activate the item. MIC expands this and adds free an swift Command word activations. Still, DMG and MIC both add that you can accidentally activate the item by simply speaking the work (while wielding/wearing ti). So...

I personally don´t use computers while I play, it messes up the table dynamics.
