    Zones, eternal or no?

    Ok, so a zone that is Burst 1 within 10, must always be within 10 squares of the "caster"? In that case, a Close Burst 3 has to remain with the "caster"... wouldn't it? Otherwise we have a contradiction... the range of the power is 10 on the first, and immediate on the second...

    Zones, eternal or no?

    PHB 59 Definition of Zone: (with a few things left out that are for examples) "The zone keyword applies to powers that create lingering effects that extend over an area... Unless otherwise specified, a zone fills a power's area of effect. Use the standard rules for areas of effect to determine...

    DM's Screen type stuff

    I was wondering if anyone had worked on a handy dandy sheet of all sorts of miscellaneous info: like when combat advantage is given, what DC's and tasks can be performed using skills, etc etc... Trying to make my own little folder that has my character sheet (thanks Kiznit, I think that is his...

    Pallys get Platemail Feat but Fighters do not?

    You are correct sir! Paladins get plate mail, fighters get scale mail... reasons go beyond me, but I assume for balancing issues...

    Creating a PC - What if you don't know who's on your team?

    My suggestion is a lil off from that lol... with no idea what the role comp is going to be, plan for the unknown... that is to say, make a character who has extreme survivability, or make a character who has "get out of jail free" cards built in... Suggestions: Cleric - the best healer in...

    Shields and item slots

    Response: (strangely familiar, good job on the answer you gave btw!) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for contacting us. While practically speaking, you can wear bracers and carry a mundane shield at the same time, you benefit from the item you...

    Shields and item slots

    I believe we have a question for the sage lol... Need to ask the sage if one can wear a set of magical bracers and a mundane heavy shield, and gain the benefits from both :p I would really be very interested to see if this would work or not... I think I shall inquire now... EDIT: Inquired-...

    A Different Paladin (suggestions pls)

    Well, I was going for Raven Queen as a Deity. Belief of "Everyone Dies, and it is my job to make sure it happens" Seek out hubris, etc... so if I find someone who thinks they have walled themselves in so well that they could live forever and never be touched... well, it is my job to show them...

    Consumable item pricing: A method to the madness?

    I was making reference to 2 of the games that the "new" D&D has been likened to in various long-dead posts... yes I realize only EQ had hell levels though... but similarities have been made with WoW also... sorry for the confusion

    Consumable item pricing: A method to the madness?

    You don't mean ... *GASP!* that just like the MMO's that 4th edition has been likened to several times in the past, that there are "hell levels"??? Oh "wow", that would Even be a Question for the sage on that one! :D

    Shields and item slots

    my question is simple on that one: Could a person wear bracers AND heavy shield at same time (forgoing the use of one or the other at a time) and switch between the usage of each as a minor action or something, maybe even having to drop the shield to use the bracers... but as long as they could...

    A Different Paladin (suggestions pls)

    Well, I accidentally TPK'ed my group =/ So now I am playing instead of running. The DM has given us freedom of Race/Class/etc so long as it is in one of the accepted areas (Core, Dragon Mag, Dungeon Mag, whatever)... He runs a game that is very open in style, where bluff and insight are very...

    Quarterstaff and Sling wielding character

    Aiming for martial, divine, or arcane? I could see a tempest fighter, a friar-style cleric or pally, or maybe a battle-wizard....

    NPC Paladins and Lay on Hands

    Nonsense! Fabrications!!! Fictitious Allegations!! How can one even compare the enormous magnitude that is the exceptionally common ENEMY paladin to a mere trifling thing like stealth or ... *shudder* skill challenges? Like those ever happen! Come on! :p

    Black Dragon breathes from beneath water?

    "And the dragon sweeps its wings forward and then suddenly back to part the waters, in the blink of an eye you see the beauty and magnificence of the horror before, and then your vision is blacked out by a wave of burning acid as the waters surge back to their proper place" How is that?

    NPC Paladins and Lay on Hands

    optimization is not a an optional in my group, so the enemies have to be optimized as well... plus an out of the book pally may have a 13, but a solo one, or an elite one, should have a much better ability to heal themselves than a one-time "touch-heal" lol...

    How viable is the max-CON fighter?

    No, save pts... instead of going 14 str and 18 con, putting +2 in str to get 16 str and 18 con (cost 21 pts) instead, put 16 str, 16 con, put the +2 on con, for 16 str 18 con (18 pts)

    Flying creatures standing up from prone

    Very Correct! After all, a bit of science here, Flying and Swimming are the same thing, just done through substances of differing viscosities... Walking, however, is VERY different because it relies on two substances that must be of different physical states (Gas/Liquid, Gas/Solid...

    NPC Paladins and Lay on Hands

    I don't care personally... I look at an ability like LoH and don't think Healing Surges... I just think it heals a quarter of max life, done, simple, easy and to the point. Enemies are monsters by the way D&D 4th works... so their abilities are not supposed to meet the same rhyme and reason...
