    Or they never were going to be as "hostile" as you thought they would be. As for turning their back, can you name any other company who's done as much?

    They're going to be putting out a new D20 Modern and making a GSL for it, too.

    D&D 4E 4E PrRC ~v2.7~ FINAL UPDATE May 29.08

    Skill Training gives you the actual skill. It doesn't just add it to your class list. If that were the case then Skill Training would be utterly useless at later levels. Besides, that's how Skill Training works in Star Wars Saga. You take that Feat and you gain a +5 bonus to any new skill. You...

    Hickman's from Utah, so my vote's on him.

    [Ampersand] Bill Slavicsek on campaign settings

    I've got a couple questions. I hope you don't mind. I understand that some things about the settings will have to be forced into the 4E mold (like cosmology changes. No great wheel in Planescape, Spelljammer probably in the Astral Sea, etc). But will campaign settings be forced to have...

    Man, I really wish they'd release some new screenshots. I want to see some more examples of the kinds of characters you can make. Less of Gwill would be nice, anyway. I really hate that guys leg armor.

    Nice try. Unfortunately for you, I'm the one holding the winning hand. ;)

    I just have one thing to say to this.

    By giving you access to abilities which you wouldn't possess otherwise. Take a Fighter who takes the Novice Power Feat. He can now gain access to the Prismatic Burst spell in place of one of his Encounter Powers. Prismatic Burst is a Burst 2 spell with a range of 20 squares which inflicts...

    D&D 4E Love It or Leave It: 4E Multiclassing

    What kind of mechanical representation can one possibly come up with for "killing people for money"? And incidentally, apparently it's possible to make your weapons into implements. So the 4E Rogue/Wizard will be able to channel his magic through his daggers, and benefit from any plus they have...

    D&D 4E Love It or Leave It: 4E Multiclassing

    I doubt that's the case. It says "Wizard Power 1". Cantrips aren't powers. They're class features.

    D&D 4E Love It or Leave It: 4E Multiclassing

    Two points. 1) What you describe is true of 3.5. Mike the Wizard, after multiclassing to Rogue, is still an 8th-level Wizard. Unless he gets level drained or burns an inordinate amount of XP on creating magic items, he'll be an 8th-level Wizard til the end of time. 2) Mike the Wizard...

    If you reread the article on Paragon Paths, you'll notice that it says the following: And it says the following in the article on multiclassing. In other words, you can take a Paragon Path, or... you can instead multiclass.

    I didn't like the rules at first, but they're slowly starting to grow on me. I'm looking at some spell pages released a while back, for instance, and I'm just amazed at the thought of a Fighter casting Prismatic Beams or Wall of Ice. Picture the scene. The Fighter throws up a wall 12 squares...

    As you said, "If you can't pick up the ability to fulfill a second class role (even crappily), yes, it is dabbling." You can, in fact, fulfill a second class role, even if it is crappy. Therefore it's not dabbling. Besides, fulfilling the role is entirely dependent on the numbers of your...

    You don't need to use Feat retraining. From the multiclassing article. In other words, you've got a 6th-level Fighter with the Novice Power Feat with a 3rd-Level Spell and 1st-Level Exploit. He just hit 7th-level. He now has a choice. He can keep his 3rd-Level Spell, or he can trade it in...

    I think you misunderstood my post. I'm talking about multiclassing. I.E. trading in a Paragon Path for class abilities (Cleric, Fighter, Ranger, etc) instead. From the article on Paragon Paths... "(Alternatively if you wish, you can also select powers from a second class in place of a paragon...

    Soldier of the Faith gives you the Paladins Divine Challenge ability right at first level. It's that ability that makes a Paladin a Defender. Student of the Sword gives you the ability to mark, but it's not clear what that means, if you gain the combat challenge ability. Either way, you can...
