    4E Consequences: Being passive, cautious, or a loner is now unoptimized

    OTOH, some people just love the fact that their characters just won't go down. A friend loves Paladins (and Rogues, those are his two favorite classes), and hated how on 3.X, a Paladin was just a Fighter with a sprinkle of Divine Spells. When we first played, he was amazed how his Paladin kept...

    Status of D&D Game Table?

    I blame the marketing staff. IME, no matter how many times you tell them it's just *not possible* to have [insert-new-product-here] ready in [insert-stupid-deadline-here], they'll just ignore you, and go ahead with the unrealizable proposed date. Cube Coder tired of explaining the same stuff...

    Flanking with... yourself?

    AFAIK, you don't have to attack to flank an enemy, you just have to be standing on opposite sides of the enemy and not being under a certain set of conditions. Do note that even if you're wielding a bow or another ranged weapon, you can still 'flank' with your sword-wielding-Fighter-buddy.

    Are all monsters created equal?

    My party hates Needlefang Swarm and Guard Drakes to no end. Their damage and defenses are insane.

    Playtest: The Druid (merged)

    How 'bout this: Base AC: 10 Effective Dex 0: -5 Prone Bonus: +2 (It was +2 right? Away from books right now) Cover: +2 (if there's an enemy blocking your way) Total: 10-5+2+2 = 9

    Playtest: The Druid (merged)

    There are only two things that I have to say: 1- The fluff of the primal spirit reminded me of Primate Murder. 2- The shapeless mass of claws, fur, and the like reminded me of Nrvnqsr. That is all.

    Whisper skill check

    I'd probably go with Bluff, vs both the NPC's and the other PC's Insight. However, I'd give the PC a bonus on his Insight check if he knows what you're talking about.

    Non-lethal damage

    We're not actually expanding the definition of HP. HP has never been just physical resistance. It's just that 4E makes it more obvius than older editions.

    D&D 4E Some Thoughts on 4e

    Just my personal anecdote: We just ended a campaign at level 18 that started at level 5, IIRC. I played as a Kobold Sorcerer. Guess how many times I got hit during the campaign? 10 times top, I'd bet that it wasn't even 5. From the start, Invisibility rules. Then, you get things like Fly. Ruin...
