Only potion and alchemical, or any consumable (or whetstone and other consumable enter in the permanent items category?)

Whetsone? Get as much whetstone as you want!

Get whatever non magical items you feel like.

While I'm on it, you can get as many back up weapons as feels reasonable as standard +2 weapon (Level 6). There are no reason to carry a non-magical hand axe to throw against a flying monster at your level...

Adventurer's vault, p. 189 and after. They are similar to elixir, but affect a weapon. I'll assume yes for now and I have updated my character.

Well, if you are talking about magic whetsone, you really have to specify it! Otherwise it's like asking if you can have ale.

Yeah, that counts in the 4 consumables limit.

I recommend stonegod to join if he wants in.

Okay, PM him.

 

[stonegod]

Yo!

I'm on travel right now, but I'll have a look Weds/Thurs to see if I think I have a good fit.

 

[Mal Malenkirk]

Welcome!

The current team has 2 defenders, 1 striker, 1 leader and 1 controller.

In another perspective, it has 2 melee combattants and 3 primarily ranged one

all set. I've not updated my character sheet though. I'll probably just copy in the things from Character Builder rather than that complex sheet I was using.

Beginning work on Dagran, no DDI yet but I have my pdf books.

Yeah, I spied dreadnought on my first scan of MP, it's totally Dagran.

I would tentatively say that this is indeed how it works. I am suspicious because it seems to make that power much stronger than the similar level 9 Mordenkainen's sword.

At the very least, there is also a huge drawback... "vs. AC" .

Well, a potion is a consumable. It's been prepared a long time ago by someone else and their power is uniform. So in that case, no.

I picked the most controverse case on purpose.

Ok, fair enough on the potion. Makes sense.

In general, though (and mostly out of curiosity, as I don't think it affects me apart from the healing issue), do feats and power effects affect magic item powers? Does someone with Astral Fire do more damage with a fire attack from a magic item?

But if you use one of your cleric powers that grants regenaration, then yes, certainly, add the level of the brooch to the hp gained every round.

Speaking of which... how do you see Melora's Tide and Healer's Lore?
No bonus, because it is not a cleric power, but a feat power, right?

I ruled the opposite myself (does work), mostly because it is Channel Divinity; feat power or not, how much more "cleric" (or "paladin" ) can it get...

(Healer's Brooch and Beacon of Hope would work, of course.)

It probably should also apply to second wind; that's essentially an encounter power.

Hmm... good question... I don't think so, though, it's technically not a power.

It would seem so, unless the person shifting can shift more than one square.
Of course, in many cases enemy will simply move normally and absorb the extra square cost. How powerful the item is depend on how often it saves you from an attack or cause an OA against the enemy. Live and see.

Yeah, probably won't because there is simply too much choice... still torn between the listed choices, though. But I think the gloves are the least likely choice of those.

Oh, I just noticed (in Mirage's sheet ), that you can actually retrain heroic-tier feats to paragon-tier feats... that might be useful.


And one more question... maybe I misinterpreted that. Do we get 6 items 13th - 8th level or 7 items 13th - 7th level?

Bye
