Where should one be looking to park a car? Is there a garage under the building/nearby or do we have to default to Union Station?

I try and get inside my monsters' heads when I consider marks. Mindless or instinctive creatures will almost always pursue the marking creature, unless a specific condition comes up that otherwise shifts their focus. Example: Ghouls with their Bite attack. Significantly more powerful than their...

This is why I dislike Fighters, their mechanics always seem at odds to me. :erm:

Er, huh? What does invisibility have to do with Fey Step? :confused:

Rules question time- Trigger: An enemy hits or misses you with an attack for the first time during an encounter What's the "statute of limitations" (so to speak) on this power? If there are 4 monsters on the field, and I would prefer to use the power on monster 4, but monster 1 attacks me...

Mike Shea over at Sly Flourish recently did a post on adjusting solos, and if you comb his archives you can find some older posts about giving old solos some teeth (Orcus included). Scaling Solo Monsters | Sly Flourish

Generally when I'm dealing with Dominated effects, I just set the player up for some bad mojo; move him in range of the brute, set him up to interfere with the party wizard, etc. I try to just ignore the OA-fest when I can. However, if the players start doing that crap, I remind them that...

Neither of which is their strong suit, and they can take a feat to negate the weakness if they're really stubborn about it. Vexing Overgrowth is contradictory to the strong points of a Summer Sentinel. Edit: Minifig, something else to point out to the Wizard since he seems to be missing a lot...

I'll have to check my copy of HotFK tonight and see if maybe I've been playing my Sentinel wrong this whole time! :p

Note the line for move actions though:

Well, maybe not, as I just checked the Compendium and it seems to agree with mneme. I just don't remember seeing errata on it so I'm very confused :confused:

Edit: whoa, when did they change this? I distinctly remember the original material saying the companion uses your actions. A little clarification here is warranted. First, if you're referring to dice rolls, then yeah, requiring an 18-20 is pretty high. But I'm going to guess you're talking...

Theoretically, it could; the natural 20 can't be preempted but if the penalty imposed by Disruptive Strike causes the total roll to fall below the target defense then it becomes a non-crit and just rolls damage instead.

Rogue and Thief both can get a lot more mileage out of melee than ranged thanks to their utility powers and such, so while he may be proficient with both a dagger/sword and a hand crossbow I certainly wouldn't go around using the crossbow if I can help it.

Yeah, the filename for this one was penultimate.jpg so it's a safe bet that we get the full monty tomorrow.

They must have ninja'd it in at some point, because it's there now.

No, you can't do any of it. The effect simply doesn't happen because you're not a tangible threat to be attacked.

I'd take Shilleagh since you already have reach 2 with your quarterstaff which makes the Vexing Overgrowth less useful. (You can get reach 3 if you take Staff Expertise instead of Master at Arms too!)

Not sure if this is the best place for this...please redirect as needed. https://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150571021865696&oid=128296190580352&comments Music video with the musical stylings of "Like a G6", but adapted to our favorite pastime. :)

Replace every instance of "killing" with "attacking" in your bag of rats rationale and it sinks quickly. Bag of rats refers to any element that can be abused by a circumstance of convenience in a way that it's fairly clear wasn't meant to be passable, not just things specific to killing vermin.
