    Player's Options: Speculation

    I don't know what the future holds for PHBs, Power books and now the Players Options. But I do remember, reading some research that WotC did late in the 3e days. Books that had Players Handbook or Dungeon Masters Guide in the title were drastically outselling out books. The same went for...

    Monster Builder Update Online

    I think it would be so much easier if ENWorld were the official forums. There are more insightful discussions, knowledgeable people and board comradery here than at WotC.

    Monster Builder Update Online

    We creep out of the darkness when you least expect it. But hey, just think, you were only about 16 hours late to the party! ;)

    Did Monster Builder not update yet?

    First, deep breath. Count to 10, then continue on. ;) Now, forget the whole XP thing, you are complicating it too much. A 5th level monster in MM1 is worth the same as a 5th level monster in MM3. XP does not change in any way, shape or form. As for damage, it has increased substantially...

    Rule Q: Dazed caused by immediate actions

    This came up in another thread recently. Long story short, as soon as he is Dazed, he gets only 1 action total - not starting at that point. However, if he gets Dazed during an action (such as an II or IR) the Dazed condition will not negate the current action. That action still gets to...

    Did Monster Builder not update yet?

    I'll also add, if I am not mistaken, it looks like some of the icons are either redesigned or stand out more. The impression I get is that the builder looks a bit more polished but that may just be me.

    Did Monster Builder not update yet?

    I didn't think so either, but a large portion of the community is under that impression. Honestly, I think that is what the Monster Vault is for. New incarnations of old creatures with the new math, so really its the best of both worlds for everyone.

    Did Monster Builder not update yet?

    Looks like creatures have bee updated to the new format but not to the new math.

    Rules Interpretation Question - Blurred Step

    I'm not 100% sure this is correct but this is what I believe happens. When the dragon says he will shift and the Opportunity Action interrupts it, the dragon has the option to choose a different square to shift to. At no point is your destination locked in. However your shift is locked in...

    [4th ed] Clockwork Horrors now DEMONS? And Neogi...

    For me, the canon changes in 4e are both a positive and a negative. Some changes were obviously required - forex, the change to alignment forced some creatures to be rewritten storywise. Some changes were made to update the current flavor of the game. Some I like, some I dislike. Either way...

    WotC Trade Paperback Question

    Thanks Obryn. I hope they do lay flat. It would make the books pretty hard to use if they didn't. Edit: I'd XP you but I just did that recently. At least I didn't ask for pics! ;)

    WotC Trade Paperback Question

    I see that a lot of the new D&D books are labeled as Trade Paperbacks. Does this just mean softcover or is the books physical dimension different (Star Wars Saga books as an example)?

    Essentials nostalgia - the death of martial healing

    This is a fair point. As I mentioned those were just some ideas off the top of my head. As an aside, since I jumped in kind of late, I should point out that I am not against martial healing. I just would have liked each of the leader classes to offer healing differently so as to provide more...

    Essentials nostalgia - the death of martial healing

    Totally disagree on this point. Temporary HP rules as is would be the generic rule. Redesigning martial healing to provide stackable healing would be an example of a specific rule that trumps the generic rule. As an Additional concept, its not too hard to imiagine any remaining temp HPs at...

    Essential Mage: The return of schools

    I like the nod to the schools of magic again, I really felt like that needed to be added back into the game. However, I hope that wizard schools play more of a role than what is seen in the preview.
