    Deck of Many Things

    Yes, but the concordance score for gaining new magic items is a much more severe penalty.

    Deck of Many Things

    The Deck of Many Things in the compiled Dungeon 177 issue makes many minor tweaks to the way the artifact works, many of which address complaints raised here and in other similar threads: 1. The deck's base encounter power now has a range of 10 squares. 2. The concordance penalty for gaining...

    Deck of Many Things

    While it may be a powerful implement, it also actively penalizes you if you gain other magic items while its in your possession, and since its an artifact, its continued presence is more or less subject to the needs of a DMs campaign (though it should probably be added that it is intended for...

    Please help me!!!

    If I was your DM, I'd have you go through a skill challenge (Athletics, Insight, Intimidate, Nature, Perception). If you fail, it would attack you; if you succeed, it becomes a companion character under your limited control using the DMG2 rules. However, I'd first make sure it was OK with the...

    How often do you provoke AOO/OAs as a DM?

    I probably provoke at least once per combat, maybe more depending on the situation. I'm prone to having my monsters run away if they're losing and not complete idiots, which is usually good for a whack or two from our PCs. I also provoke if the monster doesn't care (whether it is hungry...

    Character Buillder updates?

    Yep, next month. It was in the March issue, so its going to be in the May update.

    Character Buillder updates?

    I just loaded up my old artificer character and he's marked as "houseruled" with the house-ruled element being my Focused Expertise (Rapier) feat, which no longer includes a description, just a name.

    Character Buillder updates?

    The Compendium has already been updated, so the CB and MB should also be updated shortly, if they haven't done so already.

    Winning Races - Changeling

    You're most likely right. A lot of angry changeling fans on the WotC boards have proposed feats for the changeling that are almost identical to the revenant feats. Personally, I think that would be a non-starter with the editors as its way too close to the revenant's conceptual space. In...

    Channel Divinity: Sehanine

    I thought it was a great article all around, in particular, I loved the sidebar on the non-divine worshippers of Sehanine and the section about the omens.

    WotC April survey

    My was fairly long, I ended up answering a bunch of questions regarding each chapter of the DMG2.

    Who's that demon?

    I thought the most interesting things from that Demonomicon excerpt was that it mentioned obyriths and it seemed to preserve the Greyhawk backstory.

    Are Devas Bald?

    I don't remember ever seeing a picture of a male deva with hair, but I've seen plenty of female devas with hair.

    April 1st has come, abandon all hope ye who enter the internet

    Eh, the WotC stuff is pretty tame, though one of them could really tick people off if they read it the wrong way.

    Shouldn't Kaz the Betrayer have more actions?

    The Kas from Dungeon 170 (Kas of Monadhan in the Compendium) is a much more potent and interesting version obviously made using the updated solo monster guidelines in mind.

    April Content Calendar is up!

    I think at my last count, I'm up to 27 total pitches.

    D&D Encounters: Admission charge or free?

    The FLGS that I frequent doesn't charge for Gameday, D&D Encounters, or other LFR events, and they don't charge for letting you use their space but I did notice something weird the other day. Someone is charging $1 to teach and run Pathfinder games on Saturdays at the store; while the DM is...

    D&D Gameday celebrating PHB3 - did you play today?

    I really enjoyed the psychic journey skill challenge; I hope it gets republished sometime in the future. In any case, I think I'm going to use something like it in my home campaign.

    D&D Gameday celebrating PHB3 - did you play today?

    I played the monk today and I had a blast; I loved its unmatched mobility and ability to hit hard. If I end up playing again instead of DMing, I think I'm going to go with a monk.
