D&D 4E Is there a "Cliffs Notes" summary of the entire 4E experience?

That's why I carry a high-voltage, nuclear-powered cattle prod with me. If they try to bar brawl, I just turn the hose on them, hold down the power button on the cattle prod, and stick the tip of the prod into the stream of water. Instant area-effect taser.

Hmm. Sounds like an encounter power to me.

Too bad you can only do that once per encounter. Also, it hits "creatures" so you might get a few allies in the spray. Well, maybe that's not so bad after all. My daily power told you that you don't like them anyway.

Spinning Hurricane Slash is magic.

If it had defined itself that way, none of us would be here.

So is friendship.

Only if you have the Elements of Harmony.

I heard about a guy who said the word "dissociative" in a 4e bar. Once.

What!!??? Are you saying that the whole time the term was "dissociative"? Not "dissociated"? In that case, this changes EVERYTHING.

Eh. If they're still in front of me when I get the hose out, they deserve it.

I have to admit, all of the malice pointed out martial classes trying to do anything too "unrealistic" makes me realize, in hindsight, the genius of Earthdawn's "everyone is magic".

Cause yeah, a warrior who calls up elemental forces to sheathe his skin in rock to shrug off blows, make tremendous leaps by riding the wind, etc lets you do all that crazy action from movies without worrying about the simulation-y problems.

Come on now, think of Eric's poor grandmother.

4e works great once you realize "martial" means Jedi.

It nuclear-powered -- no recharge time! It is an at-will zap stick!
