Hafted Defense: +1 AC and Reflex while wielding polearm or staff in two hands Finally I'll be able to play the polearm wielding character I've ever wanted, wuxia style! Yay!

I'm also playing a Warden and I'm loving it! The damage is really low, but they have a lot of battlefield control, and they're mighty durable. Last session we fought a dragon and I was able to lock it down (prone) for a few rounds while the strikers did their thing. Flavorwise it's great to be...

Please, tell me of a defender with ranged options other than ranged basic attacks with javelins or throwing axes...

Actually it works perfectly! I once had an Elf Cleric MC Ranger. His Wis and Dex were both 18, which meant good "laser" powers, good AC, his only weapon was a longbow, and he used light armor, which made him very agile. The other way around would probably work as well. Remember that Wis is the...

I'm always for the Chaos Sorcerer! Big badabooms with random effects FTW. On top of that, a Changeling chick? WIN

Don't worry, we all love a good rant and the pointless discussions that follows. But maybe you were too polite, I mean, the thread only has 2 pages!

Good grief! Are you serious?! Edit: Ok, if I was the DM I'd make the spell fail. You know, like those conditions on 3.x spells where you could never order self destructive behaviour to dominated creatures. And if this rule is not on 4E, it is covered by the bag-o-rats rule.

I was always in favour of total psionics-magic transparency. They all are supernatural effects, they just have different sources and ways of coming into being. If Psionics is not magic, then what do you call Divine... stuff? What differences there are between divine magic, arcane magic and...

PHB4 :) Looks like there are some archetypes left for another PHB

OMG this must be the single most asked rules question. Every 2 weeks there's a new thread about this feat (or the warlord's) LOL

Really? And "Gazetteer" was the name for the campaign guide?! I've never seen it anyway. Probably because I've never played 3.0, and I only started playing 3.5 a couple years after the release...

Yeah, or so they used to say... I've never seen ANY Greyhawk stuff in 3.x. Ever! Apart from those names you mention, on the DMG. I never understood what where they thinking at WotC. 4E doesn't have a default campaign setting. What it has is a default campaign style, aka "Points of Light". It's...

Yeah, you're kinda wrong (or the people that told you that are wrong). Everyone has healing surges, but very few ways to use them: second wind (1/enc) and the occasional healing potion. The leaders are important because they allow you to use more. I had a game session where my barbarian kept on...

Still on this?! Anyway, I like voting on polls, so I chose Dwarf! Not that I don't like hairy burly guys, but I just don't like dwarves. I prefer elves with their fine arts and snobbish attitude :P And halflings are just cute :) Edit: By elves I mean both strains, although my description...

You were allowing the creation of indestructible wall of air with a 0-level spell?! That is waaay of the line. Take other 0-level spells, some give +1 to one skill or one attack rool, -1 to attacks for 1 round, 1d3 damage.. (I don't play 3.x anymore, so I forgot the names) Your...

I wouldn't either :) D&D night is to play D&D. If not, then I have many other things I rather spend my time with (reading, movies, preparing my campaign, going out, dating...)

Hi! I'm planning a naval battle for the upcoming session and I need your help :) The ship where the PCs are travelling will be attacked by pirates and I'm not sure how to do this. It is better to have just one-on-one naval battle, right? It would be nice to have 2 more ships escorting the main...

She?! Vecna is female?!

That said, I'd love hearing from the OP about how this went. DM-Frost, any news? :) EDIT: I just removed a reply to Celebrim about real world religions. It's not needed in this discussion :)

Unaligned. Definitely. In the end it doesn't matter much, but all my characters are unaligned
