    Boundless endurance in a fistfight!

    Free healing is AWESOME! BBEG battle coming? Activate that sucker at the beginning of the encounter and BRING THE PAIN! My I was bloodied at 18HP and I ended up there a few times after the dwarf hit me. Remember, if you're still bloodied you still get HP. So you can heal yourself above bloodied...

    Boundless endurance in a fistfight!

    So last night was a great game! we escaped from an ice prison, evaded the goblin horde coming after us (skill challenge) AND killed the young white dragon on the ice bridge. So after all that we get to Fallcrest and find out a few things about our quest. We all split up and do our own things...

    Challenge! I want to convert your concept!

    Allright, here's a strange one fer ya. I've always liked Indiana Jones. The things that stand out about him IMHO is that he's more of a smart fighter than a strong one. He can take a hit. He uses the enviroment around him to defeat his enemies. He is probably more of a martial charater, but I...

    Also, if the target is hostile to you, you take a -10 to the check. edit: looks like someone already pointed this out.

    So.... Fighter's boundless Endurance

    Yeah, I think that once bloodied you start regaining HP is what we're going with at our table. Makes more sense anyhoo.

    Sneak Attack + Critical Hit?

    Rather than just skim the text, READ it. They specifically state which ones are excempt from getting auto maxed. Umm, sneak attack, hunter's quarry, and the curse extra damage all are rolled. They specifically state WHICH rolled damage is not maxed as a matter of fact on p. 278.

    Sneak Attack + Critical Hit?

    Maximillian is correct. Anything (high crit weapon, magic weapons, etc...) that add extra damage dice on a crit ONLY are not maximized. p.278 in the PHB. A sneak attack, warlocks curse, and hunter's quarry add extra damage normally and ARE maxed.

    So.... Fighter's boundless Endurance

    Thanks guys! Guess reading all the keywords would be helpfull. If you know you're gonna have a hell of an encounter, it'd be best to activate ASAP so you don't waste that action for something else (dwarf 2nd wind for example).

    So.... Fighter's boundless Endurance

    My question is, how long does it last? Does it only last until you are no longer bloodied? Or for the rest of the encounter? Or till you're at full HP? p. 293 in the PHB just says it restores a certain # of HP every round but is limited by your max HP (no temp HP from regen). But that's all it...

    Game day adventure

    It was pretty easy, especally cause 2 of us have been "playing" 4e since the DAY KotS came out. The other 3 were learning it as we went. Everyone had a lotta fun and we steamrolled the whole set of encounters. Nobody even went DOWN. The statues went down within 4 rounds. We went against 2...

    Critical Hits - what is maximised?

    P 278 Maximum Damage: Rather than roll damage, determine the maximum damage you can roll with your attack. This is your critical damage. (Attacks that don’t deal damage still don’t deal damage on a critical hit.) Extra Damage: Magic weapons and implements, as well as high crit weapons, can...

    D&D 4E Careful Shot vs Twin Strike....No Contest (4e spoilers)

    A ranger can use 2 one handed weapons with no penalty if he takes the 2 wep fighting class feature. You can attacks with either weapon as a basic attack, but can only attack with both if an exploit (power) says so.

    D&D 4E 4E combat illustrated

    The slinger had no chance to get away from us. The Rogue took 2 rounds to do much of anything except for hiding, and when he did come out of hiding, he took out one of the dragonshields in 2 hits, and as the slinger made his way out of the combat, running away, the rogue intercepted him and got...

    D&D 4E What are you planning for your first 4E character?

    Dwarf Fighters will SERIOUSLY rock! The ability to use a 2nd wind as a minor action is HUGE! add that to whatever else a fighter can do makes him even MORE of a dmg tank!

    D&D 4E What are you planning for your first 4E character?

    Wow, lotsa warlords here! Let's add another one! I had a Dwarf Samuri in one of my favorite campaigns in Kalamar. I was thinking about switching him over to a Dwarven Warlord, but decided to go with him being a Dragonborn Inspiring Warlord build. It really fits for him being someone trying to...

    D&D 4E 4E Tools and Prep and our games and other stuff (on no particular order - long)

    Wow, what kinda monsters are you planning on facing? :cool: Most of our (Ktulu & I) gaming group uses Moutain Dew as our main fuel, which is only expended after the sweet tea is consumed. Snacks are rare, but mainly consist of Albertson's bakery cookies. Yay for sugar rushs!

    D&D 4E 4E Tools and Prep and our games and other stuff (on no particular order - long)

    :o I love the idea about using the plexiglass over the preprinted maps! We already use clear plastic inserts for our charater sheets and write on them with Vis-a-Vis markers. NOW WE CAN DO THAT WITH THE MAP! YES!
