    Switching from a 2H weapon to two weapons

    Hunter Fighting Style from Martial Power 2 would allow you to switch weapons mid combat and use no actions.

    Essential's Heroic Knight -- not so sticky?

    IMHO that's a bad DM, there are plenty of ways to work around a Knight, and forcing a player to change their character because you're too lazy to think of them is bad DMing.

    Essentials Slayer Build - Not using 2-Handed Weapons

    Depends on the one handed weapon you're wanting to use, but you'd likely want to take a superior weapon to have roughly equivalent damage to the non superior two handers.

    Ranger (Hunter) is a Martial and Primal Controller

    Also note that Scout is a Martial/Primal Striker who focuses on two weapons. Looking forward to seeing just what it is.

    Help with a Melee Striker

    Just one thing, Twin Strike doesn't allow strength modifiers so it's just +8/1d10, but aside from that it's still the damage king. Plus it's a Melee or Ranged power so if you've got a decent Dex you can use that as your ranged attack as well.

    Is there any way to get a 3rd At-Will, besides...

    Small detail, Paragon Multiclassing only allows you to swap one of your current at-wills for one from your new class, it doesn't give you a third one.

    D&D 4E Essential 4e: Heroes of the Forgotten Lands

    I think what he meant was that because the Knight and Slayer don't gain any Attack Encounter Powers, or Dailies, they can't choose to gain a higher level one at the appropriate level. For clarification, the fact that they gain a utility power at Level 2 means that they can choose to take a...

    Look Ma- Rules Updates!

    Unless they go the route of the weapon expertise feats and make the elemental damage feats have other effects then just a damage increase.

    Look Ma- Rules Updates!

    I'd also say that it's safe to say there's going to be more next month, this is likely only the really big stuff

    Winning Races: Dwarves

    See this I don't believe. Nearly every Str based class benefits from Con and/or Wisdom, so the points other races save by having a +2 Str, a dwarf saves in those stats. And again, Battlemind and Avengers both use the dwarves current stat bonuses and benefit from the superior weapons as well...

    Winning Races: Dwarves

    So you only have a problem with DWT in regards to the Str classes? What about Avengers and Battleminds? Both benefit from either the +2 Con or +2 Wisdom, but oh no, give the dwarves a Str bonus and all of a sudden it's the end of the world. Keep in mind that DWT is a static +2 where as the...

    D&D 4E Essential 4e: Heroes of the Forgotten Lands

    I'd also be interested in hearing about the differences between the two domains of the warpriest if Fiery_Dragon is still answering questions.

    Analysis of the new stat pairs for elf, eladrin, dwarf, halfling

    If humans do get another floating +2 they better lose their bonus to all NADS because the only reason for them to have that is to balance the lower defences they would have compared to the other races.

    More Essentials teasers

    Actually slowing only immediately ends movement if they've moved more then 2 spaces, so it wouldn't apply to shifts either.

    How to avoid armor slowing me down

    Multiclass into fighter and take Chainmail Agility assuming you can get 15 dex works too

    Line of Sight/Line of Effect and an Aegis

    Aegis of Shielding simply needs line of effect it's the Assault swordmage who would have been less then pleased at that point as no line of sight means no teleporting.

    Reach Melee Weapons and Cover

    Keep in mind characters don't take up the entire area of the square they occupy. So you're not reaching over an enemy, rather attacking through the space they're not in at the moment.

    4e DMs: Allow players a 5 minute rest after EVERY encounter?

    Not allowing a short rest seems strange to me, as a short rest isn't the characters sitting around for 5 minutes doing nothing, but rather the characters spending 5 minutes looting the creatures they just finished killing, bandaging their wounds, taking a moment to catch their breath etc. The...

    4e Races I'd love to see, but probably never will:

    Half-Demons, Half-Dragons etc... about the only things I can think of off the top of my head at the moment.
