    Stealth House Rules - My Version

    Here's yet another set of house rules for stealth. :) I've tried these out, and I'm going to be playing with these for a while. They've worked ok so far, and they've reduced the amount of information I have to track. In particular, I didn't like having to track which enemy was aware of which...

    [Q] Poisoned Weapons: Multiple Rounds, Multiple Targets?

    I remember this being asked before, but I don't think there was a definitive answer (and now I can't find the thread), so I'm asking this again... I have two questions relating to poisoned weapons: (1) Does the poison on a weapon get used up on the first hit, or will it work multiple times...

    Can you move->stealth->attack>

    Are you allowed to do the following: * Use a Move Action to move more than 2 squares to an area with cover adjacent to an enemy target. * Use a Minor Action to hide against that enemy target. * Use a Standard Action to attack that enemy target, and you have combat advantage. The rule in the...

    KotSF: Pregen rogue - why 2D4+4 damage in Positioning Strike?

    Sorry about having another question about this! I'm being a bit stupid today. The pregen rogue for KotSF has the damage for Positioning Strike listed as 2d4+4. But the PHB lists the damage for Positioning Strike as 1[W]. As far as I can see the damage for the dagger would be 1d4, not 2d4...

    KotSF: Pregen rogue - why +8 in Positioning Strike?

    I think I must be missing something here... The Keep on the Shadowfell pregen Rogue character has a +8 for their Positioning Strike power. This is Dex vs Will. The rogue has a dex of 18, for a +4, so where does the other +4 come from? The same question also applies to the other Dex based...

    [Q] Does Holy Avenger do extra damage for non-weapon attacks?

    The property for Holy Avenger states that it does an extra 1d10 radiant damage when the power you use to make the attack has the Radiant keyword. Does this apply even if the power you are using doesn't actually use the Holy Avenger physically? For example, if a Paladin with a Holy Avenger...

    Poisoned weapon - Does hitting use up the poison?

    In the DMG, it says that you can use poisons on weapons. If you do so, it says that the poison will wear off after 5 minutes or at the end of the encounter. It does not say that hitting with the poisoned weapon will use up the poison. So my question is simply this: If you poison a weapon and...

    Definition of [W]?

    The PHB uses the keyword [W] in many places, but it doesn't actually define it anywhere! Does this mean "amount of damage done by your weapon"? When [W] is preceeded by a number, is that a multiplier? So if a power says "5[W]" does that mean "5 times your weapon damage"?
