Eclectic Games, an excellent FLGS in Reading, UK, is running a Kickstarter for upgrading its new location. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...di/description Even if you aren't located in or near Reading, some of the rewards allow sponsorship plaques for publishers, game groups or companies...

The text states that you can make an extra unarmed attack after hitting with a monk weapon, so presumably you can hit them with the unarmed offhand. (The actual example is a quarterstaff which is Versatile but I'm assuming common sense says that you cannot wield it two-handed then get the extra...

I don't know if this counts as broken but it seems a bit off to me: Monk/Way of the Four Elements 7 Fighter 2 Barbarian 1, assume +3 strength, wielding a short sword. Fighter fighting style: Dueling. Short sword damage d6 +3, plus rage +2, plus dueling +2, plus fangs of the fire snake +1d10...

Hi, Two things. First, I've made a version of the WotC PDF form-fillable character sheet that actually does the math for you, filling in things like skill totals as you go - would I be allowed to upload this? Or could I diff it against the WotC distributed version and upload the diffs file...

Our wizard player spotted this one last session. He has an Orb of Fickle Fate, plus Orb Mastery. Plus a feat that gives -2 saves against effects. So he'll kick off an encounter with Destructive Salutation, and if it hits, use his Orb Mastery and the Fickle Fate power all stacked together to...

The following situation came up recently: An enemy is flying 2 squares up, and wielding a weapon with Reach 2. It tries to stab a Ranger who is on the ground, and misses. The ranger expresses a wish to use Unbalancing Parry to move the creature. The ruling as follows: per forced movement...

True, but they can include "if" statements in the adventure, or abstracts.

I'm the DM from the campaign in question. Per RAW, Wraiths can fly upwards, but they can't shift upwards, in fact nothing can shift upwards: if you want to move vertically you have to take a Fly action which is per se not a Shift and does provoke OAs. As such if a Wraith is surrounded, it's...

I've been bothered by this for some time, but I wonder if there's any clear plan to sort out the rules on Line of Sight and Effect, and similar. The rulebook gives an excellent description of the differences between Cover and Concealment, and Line Of Sight and Line Of Effect - and then fails...

The Rogue power "King's Castle" is improved a fair bit if the Rogue can change places with an ally before attacking. For Rain Of Steel - the general question was how the power was interpreted - the player tended to interpret as the fighter just routinely thrashing his sword around like a...

1 - When you sustain a conquration do you need just range to it, or do you also need line of sight/effect? (Ie, can a Cleric throw a Spiritual Weapon into a room, then have the rest of the party barricade the door?) 2 - When someone starts Dying, do they lose any status effects on them, in...

... This is the problem - PC3 can't actually activate his greaves until the move is ALREADY MADE. They're an interrupt, activated in response to PC3 being pushed.

Fair point. However, assume that the pushes are made to the Northeast as you describe, but say that there is one more column of blank space between PC3 and the wall. In other words there is now a legal push for PC3 - to the East. Is it your interpretation then that, if PC3 uses his greaves...

It can't: PC 2 is still under its template.

The Bronze Warder is a new monster in Thunderspire Labyrinth. It has quite a few abilities, but only two relevant to this question: During the adventure, the players have the opportunity to pick up a pair of Dwarven Grieves, which negate forced movement. So, here's the situation: BB...

The problem here is that normally you couldn't move into an enemy's square at all. This creates insanities; such as, if two enemy guards are blocking a bridge, just hit one of them with a power that turns them invisible and walk on through - suffering only a couple AOs.

B, based on consistency with another thread. Ruling A causes a potential infinite loop if the power in question is an interrupt used in response to being attacked.

I get the feeling this is a bit of an old saw here, but I wonder what the consensus is on this (I would ask Wizards but their website is falsely claiming that I have cookies disabled) General: - Can an invisible enemy flank a target? (Nothing in the rules blocks this but this would mean that...

Ok, if that's agreed. The unclear bit is that the rule about "a line that runs parallel to an obstacle isn't blocked" doesn't say anything about applying only to that section of the rules. It seemed to me that it defined the term "blocked" for the whole book.

Here's the situation: A ### B A and B are characters, #'s are a wall. North is towards A. A is able to draw a line from the southwest corner of his space, to the northwest corner of B's space. (Per PHB, a line which passes along the edge of an obstacle isn't blocked.). He is...
