So, is that why the assassin is so fragile?

Maybe it's the other way around. Maybe the other players are too distracted or too self centered on their role playing that they failed to notice that he's an half-elf :) Or the half elf guy is such a good roleplayer that he fooled everyone into thinking he was a human until they notice that he...

He's military. Ergo, evil. LOL Yeah, that's the one I voted for. I never liked it from the start. It's that marshal/lieutenant feel. It scares me

IMHO, changes were made because they were doing a new edition. The reasons for doing a new edition may be: excessive gloat (or is it bloat?), making more money, 3.x Grapple... whatever. But in the end its a new edition, it HAS to have changes. Why would they be doing a new edition and make it...

I strongly disagree with the OP's "objective" reason #4. That assertion is very subjective. I know I don't agree with it, neither fanboy2000 neither many people. Apart from that, very good post! :) Those are also my own feelings (I'm a 4E guy, btw)

Edit: Blah blah (enough with the unnecessary posts :)) Sorry, I was trying to edit my post, but I accidentally wrote a new one... This is the one thing that made me happy to move on to 4E, never looking back again. When I DMed 3.5 my game had the entire system heavily house ruled (Unearthed...

I don't want to disallow anything. There's always a way to fit a weird race or class into the story. I just want all races to be more human-like. About the Deva thing, he's not going to be the main character. The things is, most of the characters are half brothers, sons of the Emperor. But...

I'm planning on creating a new setting based on the Seven Citadels series (some info). I read it some 15 years ago, and now I'm reading it again after finding the books at my parents' house. I'd like to hear some comments and suggestions on these points: The first thing I want to do is...

Imagine your friend wanted to play Spock! So, he must have that special touch power, to put enemies unconscious, and it has to be an at-will because Spock does it whenever he wants! Also, it works perfectly with Spock's more pacifist and rationalist style. So, he must have Sleep as an at-will...

There's no Enchantment school or any other kind of magic school. Each class has all his "schools" already built-in. Also, the Wizard is not an enchanter now, he may have some Charm spells but it's not his focus. The Psion I believe is the main enchanter now. And yes, it's true that 4E...

I know why I opened my account on Gleemax: to access all 4E preview material and, after 4E was released, the compendium and the online magazines. Apart from that, I don't know what Gleemax was. There were a forum and sometimes they did polls related to gaming... So that's where that name came...

I keep reading and hearing that if want to use Heavy Blades you need Dex, to use Spears you need Wis, etc, etc... What's up with that? Is it because of a few feats? Can't one be fine without them? I'm asking because I built an intelligent and clumsy Genasi Barbarian. For roleplaying reasons...

Talk about hungry pregnant women...

What, there's another one?! This guy is prolific

The one thing I don't like about the 4E PHB is the font size. It's too big. Text should be the same size as the other books, and then you could have more content. I can't find any good reason they used such big text

For myself it was hard to understand why someone would have such strong feelings against a few beers (in my opinion inoffensive, when now and then), making him impose what appeared to be extreme and kinda arbitrary rules. It took some of us (i.e., me) many many pages to understand his point of...

Why not? (Apart from all the people arguing about the loss of psionics) Back to OP: Maybe they will all get [Psionic Focus] feats that only Psionicists can pick? It's just speculation, but Focusing is very Monk-ey, and was present in all 3.5 psionic classes.

Oookay! Long interesting thread. The strangest thing is that I read through all of it. As a smoker and drinker, I love games where you drink and smoke at the table. Back when I lived in Oporto, me and my friends (I miss gaming with them) used to have beer or whisky & coke (the dark bubbling...

Monk is Psionic but doesn't use Power Points. Flavourwise Psionic is connected to the power of the mind, mechanically I'm not so sure. There are two important things, in my opinion: augmentable powers and power points. But the Monk uses neither (as far as I know) Back to your question, I think...

I'd risk saying that divine sanction is a paladdin class feature, and you can choose between Divine Chalenge, and a new one published on DP. Maybe Strength based? I sure hope so. About WotC expecting people to build Clerics or Paladins based on only one stat, I really don't think so. The pregen...
