    Warlock's Curse and Hunter's Quarry - Can enemies see it?

    Page 57, column 2, last paragrahp. That's what it says on 57. If someone has a condition, they know what it is. Divine Challenge is listed as an explicit example. The text says "...knows what YOU'VE done to it" (emphasis mine) so it knows the source of the power. This may well be the case...

    Warlock's Curse and Hunter's Quarry - Can enemies see it?

    Uhm....the rules explicitly say any target is aware of any conditions affecting it and who caused the condition. There's not much room for "convincing" there. You can houserule if you wish to, of course, but the rules as written are crystal clear. Now, it does not follow that OTHERS know what's...

    That's it; I am done buying minis'!

    You know, in the old days, you just bought the minis you wanted. If WOTC wants to force people who play the mini game to open pack after pack after pack, they should allow people who just want to play D&D to order individual minis, perhaps with custom bases so they can't be used in the...

    Female gamers: Weal or woe?

    Sounds to me like the problem is (grossly immature) male gamers, not female gamers.

    Help reign in a player who refuses to play his role

    This isn't different from pacifist fighters, wizards who refuse to cast spells, or rogues who only steal from their own party. :):):):):):):)s are edition-proof.

    Pimp My Roguelock!

    I'll rebuild him w/points instead of array. Also, I was thinking pactblade for the obvious synergies...

    Pimp My Roguelock!

    Int, not so much mechanically, though out of combat he's supposed to be a con man and being able to remember key facts is important. IAE, it's my second-lowest stat. Wisdom -- Perception+Insight, both pretty vital, and my Will defense, of course. (Oh wait...will is Cha based, isn't it?) IAE...

    Pimp My Roguelock!

    I hope this is the right forum... Looks like my DM is all enamored of 4e (knew I shouldn't have run KOTS...:) ) and will probably renege on his plans to keep our current campaign going until we hit at least the high teens. Probably. I hope he at least waits until Martial Power is out, but...

    Help reign in a player who refuses to play his role

    "Door's to your left." Seriously. The only thing worse than a player who doesn't believe in roleplaying at a roleplaying game is one who indulges in disruptive behaviour and excuses it as "I'm just roleplaying". Or, if you really don't want to boot this guy, make sure the OTHER members of the...

    Where is info in 4.0 on how to create Multiclass PC?

    Once again, I need to either learn to read more closely or not post when I'm half asleep. I was blurring the 'swap' feats and the PP multiclassing options in my head. This does change the ratio quite a bit.

    Where is info in 4.0 on how to create Multiclass PC?

    I was misreading the swap feats to only apply to powers below 10th level. My bad. As for total powers, at level 30, assuming you take all swap feats and paragon multiclassing, you will have 6 second class powers out of 17 total, or about 1/3rd. So the 'ratio' actually shifts over time; you're...

    Where is info in 4.0 on how to create Multiclass PC?

    a)You will never gain the class features, except those explicitly granted -- no way for a non-wizard to learn Mage Hand, for example. b)You will never gain a power higher than 19th level in your second class. c)At 10th level, out of 11 total powers, three can come from your second class --...

    Where is info in 4.0 on how to create Multiclass PC?

    You cannot create multiclass characters as they have been known in 3e. You take one of the multiclassing feats. This gives you the powers/abilities noted in the feat description. Later, you may also take 'swap' feats which let you choose a power from your secondary class instead of (not in...

    Fate of WotC Closed Content?

    Well, first, there's no such thing as "abandonware". Second, given how hard WOTC is working to kill the OGL, why on Earth would they ever release more source material for it? Short of, say, Peter Adkison buying WOTC back from Hasbro, you can be damn sure nothing from WOTC will be coming out as...

    In Praise of the Fluff-Light Monster Manual (Forked: Ecology of the Dragonborn up)

    I doubt there's many gamers who don't use the Internet. If there were, you'd think we'd see them post more often.

    Making trouble for a womaniser

    Pregnancy is good. Wrecked my swashbuckler's love life.... :( Or you can follow the Xander option -- make sure every woman who he ends up with is a doppelganger/demon/dragon/etc. There's also the woman who isn't just a simple barmaid/innocent naif; she might decide that he's the one for her...

    Q. About Warlock Multiclass

    In the short feat description, it says "Gain Eldritch Blast 1/encounter"; in the actual text of the feat, though, it says "Pick a pact and gain that pact's at-will power as an encounter power". Which is it? 'Cause my rogue will find Eyebite a lot more useful than EB.
