All the campaigns I have been in we only met once a week. The two that went to 16th took 1 to 1.5 years to reach that level. Keep in mind that one of those campaigns was run by a bat schnit loony DM who saw fit to just throw monsters that fit his story line at us and not necessarily our level...

First campaign ended at 16th with myself and one other player being the only original ones. Second campaign ended at 4th when the DM moved away. Third campaign ended at 16th when the DM got tired of playing. Numerous campaigns have started and died before 2nd due to scheduling issues.

Okay, so when are you coming to the Sunshine State to run that again?

Yes, we had to kill the Kraken and I was playing a straight Killswitch.

I'm going to weigh in with a real game situation from a few weeks ago; The party was on a large ship in the middle of the ocean. A kraken appears and attacks the ship and its crew. We were only level 16 and the kraken the DM had made and was using was a level 20'ish solo elite so it was the...

For $300 a year I would want: An integrated and searchable CB, MB, Compendium (including rules), VTT campaign manager that is useable online and offline that WORKS... ...with automatic updates when a new article or errata is posted to add/update the content. A character visualizer. The...

So after 3-4 years of 4e being out on the market WOTC reprinted the original classes with all new ways/concepts of building the characters to hopefully get new players? Thats what your saying WOTC has said and/or is saying? Why not just issue updated reprints of the core products again and slap...

My main problem with 4e and WOTC right now is Essentials. They essentially decided they did not like the way 4e characters worked and changed it. But instead of having a solid release schedule where slowly but surely every class got remade into an Essentials version they have released the same...

I usually just choose Unaligned since the actions my characters take could be construed as good or evil depending on the situation and what other people think.

It is important to note that while characters can no longer craft uncommon and rare items from naught they can still upgrade uncommon and rare items they already poses to the next level for the difference in gold. So you could conceiveably cherry pick your items that span a majority of the...

If your any kind of a warden Cloak of the Walking Wounded is what you wear. The idea later on is that the main healer of the group can focus more healing on squishier members while the warden can take care of himself for the most part. Considering most wardens easily have 10+ healing surges...

Hybrid Human Artificer|Warlord. Build Link. One of the greatest leader builds around. It just will not provide any skill support. In reality with such a melee and striker heavy group you either need a healing cleric, not a pacifist for the love of god, or a bard who multiclasses like hell to get...

I like the RC as well mainly because it now provides the entire table with a single point of reference when someone questions how a rule works or what the actual rule is. This should be something they revise again in the future if they stick with 4e for a good while longer. Maybe even release...

I am ignoring Essentials until they stop supporting the REAL 4e. I didn't run far far away from 3.5 just to run back into it three years later. 4EE the little abortion that never should have. 1. Who cares, lets throw them all in there and call it a party 2. See #1 3. Nah, the revised skill...

I am curious to know how the house rule for HP and healing surges has affected the game. I see there is a good mix of combat and RP challenges but I was just wondering. Also, any thoughts on heal checks from the party members that make a 11-20+ on the roll and carry things like bandages and...

So long as you can fit all your non-magic item powers onto the sheet I think its just fine. Plus, I think most sheets should have a seperate section for magic item dailies since the number you can use is per tier and not the same as your class dailies.

Those "smart" fighters be Warlords mate. Then again they fill the leader role. Swordmages are int based defenders as well.

What worries me most is the multi classing ability of the bard. I'll reserve judgment on whether or not the bard is balanced based on how the multi classing works. Having four powers as a half-elf not of your class is a big advantage and I worry that it will eliminate clerics as viable healers...

Well you have to take into account the characters previous adventuring experience as well and what they might have gained on their travels. It is more than plausible that they could indeed have acquired themselves an airship or some other grander form of travel beyond some horses. To tell a...

The way I understand it is if a wizard casts sleep then those targeted fall asleep and at the end of their turn they are allowed to make a save against that affect. If they fail they stay asleep. If any of the targets have an ability that allows them to save before their turn and they save...
