No. Only the weapon dice count as [W]. Bonuses from race, feats, items, enhancements, powers, etc are separate and don't get multiplied. (PHB, p. 276)

Hey gloomy. Haven't seen you on lately.

If anyone can proposed short answers to the unanswered questions on the FAQ (ideally with a format similar to what I have so far) that would be great!

I'd like to add one question too:

-What happens when you roll a 20 on your Death Saving Throw and you got no Healing Surges left? (the explanation on the book looks weird to me)

Looks like no change. The Rouse (or another wotcer) said somewhere that the negative number bit was not supposed to be there.

Oh, thank you very much! I read and reread at least 50 times that line.

Any chance you (or someone else) knows where he said that?

There is no reason you cannot sit on Tenser's floting disk, but it will not move anywhere. The disk follows the caster when the caster moves more than 5 squares away from it.

EDIT- Missed that. You can command it to move your speed as a move action.

Actually, you can move it as a move action too...

Thanks, Gloombunny!

That's interesting... when we started playing 3.0, that's the exact same house rule that my DM used for critical hits: only weapon damage dice got multiplied.
