    Swashbuckler/Bravo/Duelist Archetype

    If you're a swashbuckler, the jab feat could be more useful if you had a free hand. I don't know what exactly constitutes "an attack" and what's something other than an attack, but could this include pulling the rug out from under an enemy, throwing a mug of beer in an enemy's face, throwing...

    D&D 4E 4E combat and powers: How to keep the baby and not the bathwater?

    Since it seems that most people agree there should be some powers/maneuvers for martial characters (or tricks for thieves), I thought it might be helpful to summarize the ideas that have been thrown around, so they can be discussed/debated.

    Iconic D&D Clerics (Blog)

    Something similar to what Kamikaze Midget said is the way to go. Take the four core/base classes and tie them to power sources like in 4e. So the fighter (martial exploits), the thief (tricks, or whatever you want to call them), cleric/priest (divine powers) and magic-user (magic). The...
