Why would you assume that the monsters are stupid and want to die? They're murderous thugs out for loot. They see some badass standing between them and easy pickings, they're going to avoid him if they can and fire from range. Simple tactics. Not metagaming. Any creature that straps on armor and...

Oh, I had no idea. Because I changed it the second I logged in as I wanted to actually read the posts instead of going cross-eyed. Wow, being hard to read and causing eye strain as part of branding. Now that's something to be proud of. EDIT: If you're on Safari, you can disable CSS by dragging...

Please hurry. I'd really like to come back to the forum but I can't read this white on black crap for more than a few seconds. A least default to something that's not painful to read in.

I keep hearing about this awesomeness, but don't have the MM, could someone give me a clue and page numbers for when I get this book? If the rules are on multiple pages, what are they?

Shouldn't the melee attack at 1st level be +4? +2 from Str bonus +2 from proficiency bonus Where are you getting the additional +1?

The teleport spells wizards get are dailies. Fey step is an encounter, from 1st level. Hence the question. An extra at-will is always great, but at higher levels, when you have more spells, and more powerful ones, not as much. But a 5-square teleport as an encounter spell, is always useful. With...

Ritual Caster requires that you're trained in either Arcana or Religion. Both magic item rituals are keyed to Arcana, but neither requires a roll. There's nothing in the ritual section stating you need to be trained in the key skill. Cleric, paladin, warlock, and wizard have access to Religion...

I'm making a wizard and having a hard time choosing between human and eladrin. All other things being equal, for me it's a question of fey step vs the extra at-will power. Any ideas?

But, there are no craft skills. So what makes anyone a weapon smith. Desire?

What the hell does "oversized" do considering there are no weapon sizes anymore? Does that let you wield two-handed weapons as one-handed?

So without a class feature, class feat, or any other mechanical bit associated with the ranger, any character trained in Perception is just as good at tracking as the ranger? So my wizard can take Skill Training (Perception) and be just as good? Nice. Score one for the other side.

Any word on the cost of those pdfs?

Here's a sample of what a Swordmage style power could look like. Imbued Strike / Attack 1 You surround your weapon of choice with mystical fire. At-Will, Arcane, Fire, Weapon Standard Action, Melee Weapon Target: One creature Attack: Intelligence vs. Will Hit: 1[w] + Intelligence modifier fire...

I reworked the points and structure a little and bumped up the spot ons to 22 of 33. I edited my original post rather than put the entire thing again here.

25 variables with 17 spot on? Many powers grant multiple effects from the list above. The powers that are over in cost have more effects than normal. Piercing Strike? All the 1[w] damage powers target AC except Piercing Strike. That could cost a full 6 points. Maybe 1[w] damage vs...

I solved at-will powers. If you use this, please give me credit. The formula is [now] spot on for 22 of the 33 powers. A few are over cost, a few under, and a few are total mysteries. With this you can make all the 1st level at-wills listed in the classes, except the "?"s below. Feel free to...

Moved.

Hey, thanks to everyone who has responded. I appreciate the comments, both straight and snarky. 1. Minis. Yes, minis have been implicit in the game design since the beginning. I am one of the people who have used them from the start. I only commented about non-minis users being silly to show...

(This is a post about my dislike for the new version of D&D. If you can't handle that then stop now.) Wow, now that the books are out... I just don't like 4th edition. I have been all over the 4th ed news and eating it up, so just know that I'm not a hater who waited for today to let loose. I...

"There is currently no support for Macintosh OS." Oh sad day.
