Simple question - are we any closer to having the option to hide xp comments?

Not worth it

So what? If you look at any of the other public polls there are a lot of anonymous voters in all of them. Just look at the "do polls prove anything" poll - it looks like over half of the voters are anonymous.

Orc with a greataxe - every hit had this potential for a number of characters until 3rd level or so.

Given that I've been playing since 78 and my first ever character was a thief - I'm really, really happy to see the terms Thief and Backstab are back :lol: I'm actually hyped for D&D Essentials in a way I was not for 4E :D

Knocks down the walls of Jericho. It also has infinite surface area but encloses a finite volume. And then there's the Horn of Athanael - which blows at midnight.

I understand that the types of movement are different - all I'm saying is that if those the situations in which those differences have a real effect don't come up often the powers can feel the same. Can you really not see how someone could feel that they have a sameness even if they are...

This is hyperbole and not terribly helpful IMO. While they are not the same, it really depends on the game whether or not the differences have much effect. We have a ranger with both shift and teleport powers - often it really wouldn't matter which he uses - he stays out of melee and most often...

It does when they use a power or item the way they have before, but when they look at the card its says something different - this has happened on a couple cases where we needed to check the wording on a Wizard power and one of the player's weapon Power. We had a pretty good memory of what it...

Just a note - we have players who use the CB and don't actually own most of the books - they no longer have access to the unrevised elements. It does cause a hassle when leveling up their characters or adding equipment if we wanted to keep an earlier version of a rule or item. I stated before...

I believe it is revisions instead of errata that is causing the "this is 4.5E" feeling. If all the rule revisions to date had not been added in small parcels, but instead had been released all at once two years after 4E had been released - would you call that 4.5? It is getting to the point...

We still game in the basement. In all but two of my friend's houses there is nowhere with adequate room to game upstairs. The only time I didn't game in the basement was in college (Michigan UP, the basement had a dirt floor).

My nephews - they like racing or sports games more or being outside, or my nieces and my friends daughters who didn't/don't like the WoW type games and just recently decided to play an rpg. I gamed with one person whose first experience to any of this was Diablo which is no where near as...

That hasn't been my experience - YMOV

I did say it - in my first post. Honestly, I believe play style has more to do with how the game feels than the actual rules.

With 1E I would agree, but 2E and 3E my experience is different than yours - so we disagree. Perhaps it was the people you played with or the DM you had that caused characters from earlier editions to have a sameness. IYE - again, I didn't have this experience previously. The sameness currently...

84. Cauldron that raises the dead 85. Horn of Gabriel 86. Idunn's Golden Apples that kept the God's young

Just anecdotal, but, having played every other week since 4E was released (except for 2 months last fall) and through all 3 tiers - many of the classes just don't play out that different at the table IMO. Now you could blame this on our DM or our playing style, or it just might be that whatever...

It has something to do with the Whirlwind Sneak Attack feat. I select the feat and the power it works with I then level up the character. I go to the class choices screen so I can choose which power I want the feat to apply to at this new level. I choose a power I then go to the powers screen...

I was advancing my Rogue/Daggermaster/Prison of the Winds character from level 24 to level 25. When I did the level 23 encounter power became unselected (it was there with a line through it and it doesn't show up in the power cards). Is this a bug or is there a rule I am missing?
