[QUOTE="Kordeth, post: 4133934, member: 5036"] Given that the original sheet posted for download [i]was[/i] the sheet from DDXP, and it was only a day or two [i]later[/i] that they changed it to the corrected version, I'm going to have to say your thinking is probably incorrect on this one. Moreover, some of the changes (like the tweaking of a couple of ACs or the removal of the +4 damage on the ranger's careful shot) are things Mearls and other WotC folks flat-out said were errors on the DDXP sheets. Sorry, but the sheets currently available for download are the most recent and correct ones. Umm...how so? But it's not like it actually costs you anything except an action. If you've already spent all your regular per-encounter powers, who cares if this one's weaker? It's still an extra power. And there might very well be times when a weaker ability is nonetheless more optimal (take a hypothetical half-elf cleric fighting on a 5-foot wide bridge over a chasm. Suddenly that per-encounter use of Tide of Iron looks a lot more useful, huh?) The fact that they didn't update the text of the divine challenge is odd, but as I mentioned before they most definitely [i]did[/i] make several changes that fixed things listed as errors by the developers. The ranger's careful strike was one, one of the other characters' AC (I think the paladin) was another. Meh. They made a quick fix to get the errata'd version up as quick as possible and just moved the power stat block to the correct section. An easy oversight to make and hardly compelling evidence that the current version of the character sheets are the less-recent ones. If all that isn't enough, check the "last modified" dates on the files. The current versions of the sheets were updated on 3/6/2008, four days [i]after[/i] the DDXP. Not likely, then, that they are the older, incorrect ones. [/QUOTE]
