    Avalanche Hurler and heavy thrown weapons

    I'll look when I get home, but I would assume that you're using STR to throw, not DEX. What does it actually say in the power description for the Paragon Path.

    Draconomicon Experiences

    They don't kill fast or die fast anymore. The battle that I described lasted for quite a few rounds. They're beefy and have some decent damage abilities, but nothing too powerful or weak.

    The Druid makes me chew the furniture

    Maybe each of the abilities, or at least the at-wills, will have a secondary ability that activates when shapeshifted. See the Barbarian at-wills for what I'm talking about. I could see Utility forms requiring a ritual that can only be used by someone with Druid shapechanging. If you need to fly...

    The Druid makes me chew the furniture

    Really? I was basing it on the fact that the Barbarian, who's also Primal, has a few things that do Cold or Lightning damage.

    Draconomicon Experiences

    Have you already used the Draconomicon? Are you planning to in the near future? What adventures have you made for PCs? I recently had 2 players show up, so I decided to have them make 5th level characters and busted out the Draconomicon. I was able to run the entire one-shot with the book. The...

    The Druid makes me chew the furniture

    I don't think that I have ever played a Druid. I hated 3.5 spellcasting classes, so that's not that surprising. Like everything in this edition, though, I'm definitely curious. Knowing that it's Primal, and knowing how the Barbarian looks, I can't help but think that it's going to be a Druid...

    Making a Samurai: AC and Armor problem

    I seem to recall Samurai being expert archers. They only pulled the swords when they had to. Am I incorrect?

    Spellscars= dragonmarks?

    I thought that until I saw the Gladiator article. I think that they're going to work more like the Multiclass feats that they have for weapons. You multiclass into Dragonmarked, take a couple of powers, and they get stronger as you level. I think that there are too many Spellscar powers to...

    [Adventurer's Vault] Problematic Items

    Actually, it occurs to me that I was thinking of the Wondrous Items. I still think that the normal bag is pretty nifty. Sure, it's a daily, but it's all situational.

    Is momentum conserved when teleporting?

    I don't even pretend that the "laws of physics" as they exist in our reality exist in the D&D universe. If they did, magic and other neat things wouldn't exist. In a world like that, why would someone's speed always need to be conserved when they teleport? Let the person choose when it is. It...

    [Adventurer's Vault] Problematic Items

    You almost have to spend a Healing Surge for the Bag of Tricks. I've seen the dog used by a low level group. At the very least, it was a couple of hits that the Wizard didn't take. Personally, I'm a big fan of the Diamond Bracers. You can't go wrong with ignoring 10 points of damage from an...

    D&D is awesome

    Charging a Hellcat 4 levels above you while the rest of the party is out of the fight in 3.5, getting a crit, and getting max damage to kill it, was AWESOME! Too bad the DM was a douche. But 2 of the players I stole from that game are AWESOME!!

    PC starts a town: DM panics...

    Rechan's on the right track. Why do you have to have a ton of stuff? Are they just going to sit there and turn Dungeons and Dragons into a game of Taxes and Townhalls? (I couldn't think of a better name.) If they get to the point of making a town, they'll have to decide if they want to keep...

    Is momentum conserved when teleporting?

    I would probably do it like they did in the movie Jumper. It's entirely as appropriate. You want to jump from a building and teleport at the last second and look cool, do so. You want to spin around real quick, teleport behind your enemy, and swing at his head, go for it. Don't let the rules be...

    4e: The final word

    Bravo! Sometimes it just takes a leader. You can be my Warlord. I agree with almost everything he just said. My only contention is that I don't view silly and uniformed opinions as valid. BUT, I will go ahead and agree that it's time to stop warring.

    4e: The final word

    I think I'll just ignore Justanobody's responses from now on. Brown Jenkin, I thank you for finally answering some questions. You seem to look at D&D as mostly mechanics rather than idea or feel. That's fine. I'm not sure what you mean by Quantum hit points, but I get that some people are...

    4e: The final word

    Let's ignore dictionary definitions for a moment. Most people know what someone means when that person says, "It's just a matter of semantics." Ignore that little nonsense. You know exactly what the questions are. You are currently deflecting. Answer or don't. If you don't, it tells us a lot...

    D&D is awesome

    Being introduced to D&D via Salvatore's Drizzt books 7 years before actually playing it was awesome. My first character, a Drow with 2 swords, was awesome. My second character, a Human Barbarian, was awesome. My current Warforged Barbarian who is going to be switching over to Battle Rage Fighter...

    Edition Idol

    It said to choose any that are D&D. I chose them all. Except write-in and none. I haven't played them all, but I know that they are D&D.
