    Another Divine Castigation question...

    Pretty sure you'd have to be adjacent unless you have Threatening Reach.

    Do brawlers get their feature bonuses with grabbing weapons?

    Grappling Strike does have the weapon keyword. When it speaks of grab attacks, it means the Grab standard action (Str vs Reflex no weapon mods, no damage, target is immobilized, sustain minor)

    Do brawlers get their feature bonuses with grabbing weapons?

    I've always read it as: If your hand is free (a la empty) or that hand would otherwise be free except it is grabbing a creature, you get the bonus. If that hand is otherwise full, let's say with a shield, I would say he does not RAW & RAI get the bonus from brawler - regardless of whether or...

    INT rogue?

    An essentials Thief could do it with Melee Training (Intelligence) but I don't believe that would have any of the benefits you're looking for in terms of powers or class features that use intelligence. For a regular rogue (let's say brutal scoundrel or cunning sneak) there is no way to make the...

    Ghost Sound & Opportunity Attacks

    No, healing word is a Close Burst power, which does not provoke.

    Ghost Sound & Opportunity Attacks

    Ranged and Area Powers Provoke: If an enemy adjacent to you uses a ranged power or an area power, you can make an opportunity attack against that enemy. Ghost sound is ranged 10. RAW it provokes.

    Switching from bow to swords - how does it work?

    "A" always quantifies a thing. It always quantifies a thing as one of many. This is a car. There are many like it. A never identifies a plural. I have some dogs. I have a dog. I take an action. I take some actions. You don't take an actions. You don't draw a weapons. You draw ONE weapon. You...

    Switching from bow to swords - how does it work?

    If you rule QD as is being stated above by Abdul and Aurance and Mneme, then you for the sake of consistency, you must also allow a player to draw both weapons, without QD, with a minor action. From PHB1: Minor actions (p.289) Draw or sheathe a weapon | You can draw or sheathe a weapon. It...

    Switching from bow to swords - how does it work?

    I'll instruct you to look at how other published feats are written, in terms of indefinite articles and other instances of plurality. Some notable feats: Dirty Fighting: "...against surprised enemies". vs (against a surprised enemy) Rending Tempest: "a melee attack using a power... when you hit...

    Second wind a power?

    No, no, and no.

    Switching from bow to swords - how does it work?

    No. No it is not "very clear" and no "QD does not care about actions", and just in general, no. But you can rule it that way if you want. It is written as: You can draw a weapon (or an object, such as a potion, stored in a belt pouch, a bandolier, or a similar container) as part of the same...

    Switching from bow to swords - how does it work?

    I understand the argument but I'm still inclined to believe it's one item per action since the wording does not ever actually mention: "any number of".

    Switching from bow to swords - how does it work?

    Would you allow a PC to draw and drink two potions?

    Switching from bow to swords - how does it work?

    Arguably, a rules lawyer could contend that that would be the case for mundane weapons where that is the only use for the item. If his intent is to use the 'object' with a minor action to split it (that being what he wants to do with the item) and then separately use a standard to attack, it...

    Switching from bow to swords - how does it work?

    Fixed everything. The splitting, since it is a minor action, is fundamentally no different action-wise from drawing a second weapon.

    Psionics/summoning question

    As far as I know all those powers have the conjuration keyword.

    Does the Sword Marshall PP AP feature recover BOTH uses of Inspiring Word?

    There is an argument that can be made that knowing that it was errata'd out is illustrative of the fact that it was possible and RAW before, but clearly not RAI. However, I have some question about the way the special line is written: Special: You can use this power twice per encounter, but...
