Maybe this has been answered before, maybe it's been errata'ed... but... 1) In the MM under "Drow Warrior", thier damage is listed as 1d8+4 (x2). What's the (x2)? Is it supposed to be double damage? Two attacks? Wha...? 2) Healing Font, PH pg. 102, the Hospitaler paragon path. "until the...

Yes you can, as long as they have their Second Wind still.

Yes, it's very possible, and I think with any class, as long as the DM is mindful of the abilities of his players. It's all about careful planning.

I think I am going to rule in favor of "You can place an enchantment on top of another enchantment, but you only get the sale price discounted from the ritual cost" option, with special items on a "minor artifact" scale that allow enchantments to be stack on with the buy cost disounted. Thank...

I can't seem to find any official rule on this, and I'd like to get a few opinions before I make a ruling for my campaign. If an already enchanted item is enchanted further, do you reduce the cost by the price of the original enchantment? For example; a party member wants to increase the...

Personally I don't care what WotC clarifies or doesn't, what it re-words or re-writes. The intent of stealth in my game is clear-cut and defined. It is not some method for PC's (or NPC's, or Monsters) to appear and disappear around the battlefield like Nightcrawler in X-Men 2. And I am now...

I cannot find any "sleeping in armor" rules anywhere. Before I just create a house rule on this, is there any sort of official ruling?

I would be willing to bet we see a few in the upcoming Forgotten Realms Guide. Racial identity was always a big part of the FRCS, so I wouldn't be surprised to see some racial paragon paths.

One save for both effects. If it was separare saves, it would say (save ends) twice.

True, stealth can fail, but there's no penalty for doing so. Also, a ranged target is less likely to be percieved as a threat if he never hits, while a target flanking in melee is immediately suspect. Back to my original point, if the Goblin Sharpshooter can land a 2d6+4 shot (and he does have...

See I disagree with allowing liberal Stealth rolls for CA, but I fear that is treading towards the glut of Stealth-based threads I'm already seeing. CA should not be as easy to get at range as it is in melee. Most CA is granted via flanking. To be able to get CA at range by doing something as...

Well, a Goblin Sharpshooter is only level 2 Artillery. They're not exactly dominating the battlefield at this point. Have them use Bluff (untrained) to create a diversion to let them hide again. Or, the way to give them more dominant combat advantage is to use terrain to their advantage. Put...

Then, use the standard Concealment rules, not Cover, my mistake. The RAW is for attacking Targets You Can't See, not just guys hiding in the woods. This is applied for invisibility, darkness, etc. For just Stealth vs. Perception, you don't have to impose the "Win by 10" rule. In 3e speak...

On their initiative. Stealth is an action, and they have to try and take cover to avoid notice. You can't just disappear. When its their turn. Perception isn't an action, but no sense mucking up the works by having them roll at the same time the goblins are. I would have each PC roll once...

Well of course. You save 20-30 minutes just not having to look up the 3.x Grapple rules. :D

I think it's just two takes on the same role. The role is "Defender", but the nature of their marks make the Fighter the "Offense Defender", i.e. getting a lot more opportunity attacks, making sure he's bouncing around the battlefield more and getting in monsters' faces to make sure they don't...

I think the wizard in my campaign has been attacked in melee combat 3 times in 28 encounters because of smart tactics both on her part and the party. +2 AC, in her situation, isn't as critical as Improved Initiative and Burning Blizzard. Maybe later she'll decide to pick it up, but for now...

The DM should run this based on what kind of creatures surround said paladin. Kobolds, yes, would be keeping an eye out and the paladin would have to make a Bluff check to have them believe him still dead. Other monsters may not be so alert (like zombies) and the act of continuing to lay there...

Honestly the same thing happened when 3.0 came out. It was the end of the D&D then too. And to a point, they're right. 2e was dead, long live 3.x. Now 3.x is dying, and 4e is the new king in town. Every edition has its fans and their reasons for liking their version best. It could be...

Yeah, since you save against each damage type, not each attack, I would say you only make one save. I had a situation where a player in my campaign was taking ongoing damage of no type and ongoing poison when he took another shot that gave him more ongoing poison. He still only had to make 2...
