The map design of a combat encounter is really important in 4e combats. It really changes everything. I've run easy encounters (low xp budget) that turned really though because of the map design (tight rooms with monsters having damaging auras for example) or hard encounter that turned really...

I'm looking for a post where someone made the math behind the pc and monster to hit and defense curve that make a lot of people thinking the system needs a fix (that Expertise and Epic reflexes/fort/will don't patch up well, wich I agree). I do understand that monsters gains +1 to hit and...

I had this idea while reading some of the posts. What if you ditch the classes and let the characters pick-up powers from any class list? That would lead to a wider choice of powers, being able to make the character you'd really like. What you think? Good or bad idea? Your thoughts.

the spell state Target : 1 or 2 creatures but on the attack line it says : one attack per target So... can you target the same creature twice with both the rays (since it says 1 or 2 creatures) ?

So, it's been a time 4th is out, we had plenty of time to try most classes. Now, what class do you feel is been overpowered, wich one is underpowered? And mostly, why do you feel this way? For my part. Overpowered : Rogue. There's one in the party since about 5 sessions and we all feel at...

I think the wording on this spell is a bit wierd. Could you, each round, make a new attack roll against the same creature to do another 2d8 damage? The spell state : as a standard action you can attack ANOTHER target. Does that mean that if, as a free action, you release the curret target...

Ok, there's the creatures we fought last night (imps and spiked devil). Anyway, one of them cause 5 ongoing poison and slow, save ends both. Since save ends both, it seems logical to me that the slow is part of the effect of the same poison. And there was a character who got resistance poison 5...

So, I've started playing a paladin PC. There's one power : Channel Divinity : Divine Mettle who grants the target a saving throw. My question is : can someone affected with an affect that is not "save ends" (like an effect that ends at the start of the ennemi's next turn) make nonetheless a...

Addind ½lvl to your powers... not?! I've been playing 4e for some time, but as a DM. Now, I'm going back in the player's seat for the two next sessions. So, I made my character (a paladin). Checking the rules for the math of powers, I found it really wierd that you don't add ½ lvl to your...

The PHB says : every two encounter, you reach a milestone. So the question is : does skill challenge normally count toward a milestone ?

I feel like this combo is a bit overpowered (but I may be wrong, that's why I'm asking). The warlock in my group is using that all rounds. He attacks, move at least 3 squares, gain concealment so he can make a stealth check (which he made at +9 at 1st lvl). Basically, unless he make a bad...

I didn't found anything about it in the books. What happened to sleeping in armor? If it's not written anywhere, I assume there's no penalty for it ? Or will you house rule that you just can't sleep in armor or give a penalty (wich would be... ?).
