    [Fiery Dragon] Counter Collection and BattleBox 4e now available

    I just realized that Fiery Dragon has an offer to ship the bundle Battlebox+counters to Western Europe at $115 via Paypal. I'm seriously tempted, with the current exchange rate EUR/USD. Anyone took up that offer yet ? Did it go alright ?

    [Fiery Dragon] Counter Collection and BattleBox 4e now available

    Unfortunately for me living in old Europe, Fiery Dragon does not ship overseas. Anyone know if there are distributors of these fine products in my continent ?

    New DM + Homebrew Campaign = Any Advice?

    I think an unwritten rule somewhere says 'Do not split the party'. That increases downtime for players while you are roleplaying for only one character and can cause boredom. IMHO, since it is the beginning of your adventure, the players should be thrown into action together asap, so they get...

    Quick question abous power-swap feats

    Hello Can a character get multiple instances of a Power-Swap feat ? For example to exchange multiple encounter powers with encounter powers of the second class (multiple Novice Power feat) ? I can't see anything against this in the PHB. Would it be unbalanced ?

    Question on automatic interrupt power...

    Your DM sense should have tingled a little more when an encounter involving Orcus (or a titan for that matter) was thrown upon a 1st-level character... ;)

    Treasure parcel guidelines: maximum or expected value?

    I have a question on this topic. Magic Item have enhacement bonuses based on their level : +1 for 1-5, +2 for 6-10, +3 for 11-15 and so on. In the treasure parcels chapter in the DMG, players are supposed to find magin items up to their level +4. So is it ok for players of say level 2 to get...

    Quick, easy, possibly stupid question.

    And if an adjacent marked target makes a ranged attack, he gets attacked twice by the fighter : one OA and one immediate interrupt (within the limits of one OA per enemy turn and one interrupt per round) !

    Here we go again: Rogues, Frost Weapon, and the Wintertouched Feat

    Exactly, and that's why the feat Lasting Frost exists : PHB 203 Lasting Frost Benefit: Any target you hit with a power that has the cold keyword gains vulnerable cold 5 until the end of your next turn. So with Lasting Frost and Wintertouched, a frost-weapon wielding rogue could hit a creature...

    Damage type of Sneak Attack/Warlock's Curse/Hunter's Quarry

    Just for info, the passages of the PHB you reference have been errata'ed and replaced with the 'multiple keywords, minimum resistance' mechanic.

    Weapon Damage Questions

    The expression of joy when a Rogue player gets a critical on a monster with Combat Advantage is unforgettable. :) Trust us, Sneak Attack/Warlock Curse/Hunters Quarry *is* normal damage, and it is maxed on a crit, if only for the cheers around the table on a natural 20. That's what D&D is about IMO.

    Minion conversion rules

    In the MM there are minions for practically each level. You could just take one of the desired level and reskin it to fit your campaign.

    Sneak Attack and powers

    Yeah, I meant you should be able to choose which target to apply SA damage after finishing the attack resolution (including the multiple attack rolls and single damage roll in case of an area attack).

    Damage type of Sneak Attack/Warlock's Curse/Hunter's Quarry

    Good question... RAW it says 'extra damage' so it would be logical to apply the same type of damage as the 'normal' damage of your power (and weapon). Up to that point we played that way without actually thinking. The other way would be to force untyped damage for all extra damage.

    Sneak Attack and powers

    And you can choose after you roll damage. Depending on your DM you might be able to roll all the damages and choose your target after... I'm not sure if it's forbidden per RAW.

    Sword Wraiths - totally bent? P2 SPOILER

    One important fact about fighting Wraiths is that their regen don't work the next turn they are hit by any radiant damage. And they have vulnerable 10 radiant (I don't remember if the vulnerable is halved or not). If you have a way to consistently dish out radiant damage and status effect...

    Multiple elements resistances and vulnerabilities question

    Thanks for the answer ! With the errata it makes more sense : adding an elemental effect to an attack increase your chances to hit a vulnerability and reduce the effectiveness of enemy resistance.

    Multiple elements resistances and vulnerabilities question

    Hello There are some existing threads on this subject but I can't find an answer. Sorry if it has been already clarified. Suppose a Flaming longsword-wielding Paladin use "Holy Strike" on an undead which has vulnerable radiant 5 and resist Fire 10. The attack has Radiant and Fire keywords ...

    New DM+players, how to handle death in Keep

    If the PCs can go back to a friendly town with the corpse of the deceased, I allow a rez at the temple with a price of the Raise Dead ritual plus fee (dependent of level of char and reputation of the players). If they can't go back to a town or there is a TPK, I would make them create new...

    Paragon Level: First Play Experience

    I know I am against the consensus on this, but I wouldn't have let a Divine Challenge or a Combat Challenge lock the full 4 heads of an Hydra. One head would be occupied by the defender, but all the other heads would happily attack the rest of the party. It may be wrong per RAW, but it seems ok...
