See, that's the exact opposite of what I've seen. I've seen total two, a paladin in the first 4e game I ran because it was the KotS pregen, and one barbarian later on for three sessions. I see mostly humans, with a few elves, dwarves, eladrin and tieflings thrown in for spice.

I was told there would be cake. There is no cake. The cake is a lie.

People wanted them, WotC gave them non-rare dragonborn minis. Even if one is a reprint, it still makes the figure available to the audience. I'd love to see more dragonborn made, if for no other reason than so I can flesh out my evil dragonborn encounters. For all the whining and complaining...

There was a fixed-rarity dragonborn in both the first and second PHB heroes run. Female Dragonborn Rogue #2/18 D&D PHB Heroes Series 1 - Player\'s Handbook Heroes Series 1 - D&D Miniatures - Collectible Miniatures Games Male Dragonborn Warlord #10/18 D&D PHB Heroes Series 2 - Player's Handbook...

I'd like to know how this is true as well. I played a human fighter for quite a while in a campaign, and he was great. The third at-will for a fighter is much better than you'd think, and the extra NADs are great. I'll easily take those as a tradeoff for 2 hp and one surge I'll never use anyway.

I'd like to see it done with a combination of extensive feat support, and a multiclass-only class, similar to Spellscarred from FR.

As far as I can tell, you could give any race bonuses to whatever stat the player wants, and they'll still be unique thanks to the racial abilities. Dwarves are always tough thanks to second wind as a minor action, not a small bonus to Con. Eladrin will always feel magical because of Fey Step...

And $10 to boot. If you're going to make a world, make it a Savage one.

This really makes me want to play an infernal pact warlock that's a halfling. The powers of hell in a tiny package.

This, this, and this again. The less the PC's need to reference books, the better. I would propose a DM flipside to this: BE PREPARED - KNOW YOUR MONSTERS If you're only reading a monster stat block as you're running the encounter the monster is in, it's going to take longer. Compound that...

Agreed. It's always struck me as odd that the race that created the infernal pact wasn't ideal at it.

Artifacts are far more than just game-changing, they are full NPC's that you have to deal with, in the form of Concordance. I figure a Rare magic item would be something with a lot of abilities not necessarily covered by standard abilities. Like a Crown that when worn causes the loyalty of...

I've also noticed that the best stories in Ravenloft are usually about the darklords themselves. This way, the damnation you're fighting against is directly on your doorstep, not just some distant threat. I'm sure you can play a standard "normal people versus horrible monsters" campaign with...

I'm with you on this. Once you get the hang of it, it's much more balanced and much easier than rolling randomly, or coming up with everything yourself. I had something like this in 3.5 for a while. My PC's didn't notice, but I sure as hell did.

I mean in a South Park scapegoat fashion. Blame Do'Urden. Blame Do'Urden. With all his scimitar hulabaloo, And "Heroic Drow" thing too. Blame Do'Urden, Blame Do'Urden! He's not even a real PC, anyway.

Well, there you go.

I really think that the Fallen Lands book is going to be the real unveiling of Essentials, and I'm reserving judgement until I see that book in it's entirety. What I really want to see is a game where an Essentials fighter and a PhB fighter are in the same party, to see how different they...

I don't really think we should read too much into the red box at all. If it's designed to be a beginners gateway into a very complicated game, I doubt it'll have full write-ups on anything. Something tells me that the Fighter in it isn't a Knight or a Slayer, but just a Fighter.

Can we blame him for more than just this? I'd like to see him be the Canada of D&D.

They've basically got a book like that for Savage Worlds. It's... interesting.
