Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lancelot" data-source="post: 4471856" data-attributes="member: 30022">Plenty of dead PCs in my 4e campaigns, including two complete TPKs.As previously mentioned, the big difference in 4e (from my experience) is that the players had a chance. Nearly every single death was a direct result of poor player choices or after many rounds of combat. Not one was the dreaded "Stupid orcs with x3-crit greataxes..." or "I failed my save against the basilisk...".I'm keeping a record of race/class casualties from my campaigns. Out of 15 deaths so far, it's the defenders and melee strikers (rangers, rogues) who are most prone to being hacked up - as you would expect. The most unkillable character so far is a con-build warlock. Tons of healing surges, bloodcut armor, high hit points, running round with concealment at range... But even the warlock had been put into negative digits on occasion.</blockquote>
