Hi I am helping someone in the creation of his first avenger. The general concept is an elf that was raised in isolation in a sort of monastery (actually the elvish equivalent), an order of Corellon fanatics. He was raised to be a weapon of the Order against the hordes and the tyrany of the...

Good evening! I will start DMing to a group of friends and I would like some advice on builds. We have been working of the backgrounds and the campaign, and I will propose the character sheets (or will approve theirs). I personally enjoy well rounded characters, consistent and "classic". We...

Good afternoon fellows, There are a handfull of Powers that allow the character to ignore, recover from, or even cancel the dazed condition. The best examples that come to my mind are Fighter Grit and the Dreadnough PP Power that allows recovery from various conditions by spending a minor...

Good evening! I have been having a few ideas for an oriental campaign and I was wondering if anyone already addapted 4ed to Rokugan or something equivalent. I am already confident that the tactical and "physical" aspects of the game are not a problem, but Rokugan and Oriental Adventures...

Good afternoon folks! I remmember old treads about Avenger builds and options, but after lookig 6 pages back and not finding a search engine, here I am looking for wisdom. :erm: First and foremost my future character will probably be an agent of an Eberron church. As far as I can see my DM...

Silly doubt: My DM said, and I now tend to agree, that a push effect does not need to be "in line", its enough that you move the target "away from you every square". Lets use the keypad numbers to give an example: (7) (8) (9)_______ (4) (5) (6)_| | |__ (1) (2) (3) Lets say you are in...

Good afternoon fellows. I have heard about skill powers, but I dont have material about it yet (only Cha Builder), so please allow me a couple of noobish questions. As far as I got it, you have to have some skill as prerequesite, but thats it? Lovely concept as far as I can tell. Are they...

Good evening! Some time ago I asked for tips on 2 new chars I was building: a rogue and a warlord. I am still lost with the warlord. When I first read the books I was inclidned to build a simple Inspiring or Resourceful Warlord (roleplay reasons only), but many people suggested the Tactical...

Good evening! I was looking at Certain Justice (PHB 100) from champion of Order paladin paragon path. * +4 to hit? Nice! * Dazed and weakenned until no longer marked? (wtf!) * Encounte power (???) Its just me or this seems way too powerfull? Sounds like the paladin can choose 1 oponent...

Admitely a lazy question. Does anyone knows the correct ritual level? Says 3 and 6 in different parts of the book.:yawn:

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the PH Heroes series? I can see its optins on the character builder, but I dont know where are they from. I assume they are official, but are they well balanced? Opinions? I am particulary interested in: - Knockdown Assaut for my fighter, I have retrained...

Hi! I have been toying with the idea of making a "smart/agile warrior" for a future campaign and I came down to 2 main possibilities, both humans: A) Warlord or B)Rogue. A) For the Warlord I have Hector from the Troy movie as an inspiration, meaning a warrior that can actually lead and...

Hello fellows! Quick doubts that need confirmation: a) The +1 bonus damage for versatile is counted only once even if the power is a [3W] type? I think so. b) If a rogue can use a wall to break LOS and hide, can he: - Use Deft Strike to come back to LOS (2 squares movement part); -...

Good afternoon folks! I was DMing for my college friends and some doubts appeared: Our ranger is a dwarf melee focused one, and he had chosen the crossbow as his ranged weapon (we know he could use the longbow, but he choose not to for roleplay and flavor). 1) Can he twin strike with the...

Good afternoon fellows! I was preparing a session and I have some questions about darkness powers. Our heroes should face their first dragon soom and my party will be around 4th level, been composed by: - Eladrin Wizard (Wand/Illusion mixed); - Human Cleric (Healer/Avandra); - Human Rogue (B...

A friend of mine is building a dwarf ranger to my campaign, so I was going to propose him either a 2-weapon Ranger or a beast master (World of warcraft oppening style). Many questions: - with dwarf weapon training he could use superior axes right? And add +2 to the damage of...

Many PC powers and item powers, speccially defensive ones, give someone a bonus on some defense agains something specific. Best example: Shield wizard power, that gives you +4 to defend against some attack (also lasts for a round). How can a player know when to use it? If the monster hit AC...

Good evening fellows. Double checking: before the erratas I believe that if you use any power that rolls for damage, you add the bonuses from the appropriate sourses. In the case of Rain of Steel damage: - Feat bonus, like weapon focus. - Magic weapon enc bonus. - Some magical effect that...

I was wondering... how to force someone our of his mount? Some game sessions ago we had some bad guys escaping from us riding horses, so I ask: - Forced movement would do the trick? - Maybe Scattering Volley (Ranged Power from MP)? - Shield Bash? - Wizard abilities that slide? - Force...

Good afternoon fellows! Finally getting to level 7, and with the errata, I would like some advice from more experienced players. My character is a classic archetype: he is a Lawful Good Dwarf Fighter, with a noble soul, a strong body, and a huge heart. He is a a fierce opponent, and...
