If a character is proficient with a longsword, do they get +3 on their attacks with it?

Sir, yes sir. Different weapons have different proficiency bonuses. I'd say about 2/3rds get +2 when you're proficient and 1/3rd get +3. I can see no rhyme or reason as to the distinction.

For instance, Longsword is +3, 1d8 damage and costs 15 gp with Versatile (+1 damage if wielded 2-handed). A Scimitar only gets +2 with the same damage but only 10 gp, but also has the "High Crit" ability (deals another 1[W] when you crit with it at Heroic)

2) What's the fourth Paladin At-Will Power (We'v seen Bolstering Strike, Holy Strike, and Valint Strike. So what's the fourth and what does it do)?

Enfeebling Strike. 1w+Cha and if the target is marked, it takes -2 to attacks until end of turn.

3) What stat bonuses do PC Orcs get?

+2 Str/Con
+2 to speed on a charge.
Can use warrior's surge (attack and use a healing usrge).

4) What stat bonuses do PC Hobgoblins gets (assuming they have a PC writeup in the MM)?

+2 Con/Cha
+2 Athletics/History
+2 Init
Hobgoblin resiliance (You get to make an immediate saving throw against an effect).

5) What stat bonuses do PC Kobolds get?

+2 Dex/Con
+2 Stealth/Thievery
+2 vs traps
Can use Shifty (Shift on a minor).

6) We've seen Utility Powers that're Daily, and others that're Encounter. Are there any that're At-Will? If so, mind posting a few examples?

Fleeting Ghost Rogue Utility LVL2; You can move and make a stealth check, not taking the normal penalty for moving and making a stealth check.
Great Leap Utility Rogue LVL 2; you can make a long or high jump as though you had a running start.
Chameleon Utility Rogue LVL 6; Make a stealth check. You're invisible to someone who has a clear line of sight to you, if you are hidden and then lose cover.

I have a question concerning the multiclass feats, If you already have say religion as a trained skill and you MC into a cleric, do you get no benefit from the skill training?

 

[Green Knight]

Thanks a bunch, Rechan. Noticed you didn't answer question #1, though. I take it that there is no Bastard Sword in 4E, then?

Actually having seen the weapon list, there does seem to be a fairly clear rhyme or reason to it. Weapons in a particular category and size (ie one handed martial) seem to have a base damage dice and one special ability. That special ability can be +1 more to prof, 1 hiigher damage die, or something like high crit. versatile doesn't "cost" anything.

So one handed weapons have a base of d8. An actual one handed weapon can be +3 prof, d8 damage (longsword), +2 prof, d10 damage (battleaxe) or +2 prof d8 damage and high crit (scimitar).

If it would not be too much trouble, I would be interested to know whether clerics have powers that utilize charisma, and what sort of powers warlords have that do not require strength and a melee attack.

Also, unless I missed it, I too would appreciate knowing what intelligence can give you other than a bonus to reflex defense.

So, we've seen how custom templates work, but how do the class templates work exactly. I'm assuming you just give the monster a handful of the class powers appropriate to its levels, but some details would be nice. Thanks!

 

[GMforPowergamers]

Two-handed weapon, 2d4 base damage, considered to be a Heavy Blade and a Polearm, grants Reach. It's one of the weaker 2-handed Military weapons damage-wise, but it's got style.

Thank you, sir

I have like glaives. I think they're elegant, and I'm glad they've got some "style" now.

Nope.

Cleric, Wizard, and Rogue force you to train in a specific skill.
