So I have the Martial Powers book.

[Larrin]

Can you give a little info on the Sharpshooter and/or sylvan stalker Paragon Paths, I'm planning an elf archer and i'm interested if theres anything to look forward to in the paragon sector...

 

[WalterKovacs]

On the subject of the racial stuff, what do human rogues get? (PP/feats)

I'm starting a campaign and haven't decided between human and elf for my rogue. Not sure if the group would even allow for martial power stuff to be used, but keeping it open as an option is nice.

Sharpshooter gets:

Action Point gives a basic ranged attack with bow/crossbow as a free action in addition to whatever else you do with it.

Can make opportunity attacks with bow/crossbow, which don't provoke when doing OAs.

Ignore cover/concealment, but not complete cover/conceal.

Encounter: Stab with arrow, then shoot with no OA.

Utility Encounter: Gain Wis to attack/damage with next ranged attack

Daily: Shoot three times with increasing accuracy and damage



Sylvan Archer gets:

Action point negates all regular or superior cover and concealment in addition to extra action

+2 Perception

Hunter's Quarry gets +Wisdom to damage on ranged attacks

Encounter: a power that is basically Disruptive Strike(ranged)

Utility Encounter: Quarry any enemy in sight, even if you have another Quarry.

Daily: big damage and dazed. bigger damage and stunned if you speak target's name.

Humans don't get anything special. Elven Rogues get a stupidly good feat that lets them keep Elven Accuracy if they miss the second roll on an attack that would have dealt Sneak Attack damage.

Go with Elf.

Ah so Sharpshooter = Legolas.

Thanks, sharpshooter looks like exactly what i want in an archer!

I see someone was watching LotR.

Seriously, one of the things I think is good about 4E is the ease with which you can transfer a cool move from a movie into the game. If you watch the LotR trilogy, I'm sure you could jot down quite a few things you could translate into exploits.

 

[Evilhalfling]

well the elven rouge in my party will certainly want sneaky accuracy, but he has a lot of feats to compete for his interest and the campaign will end before paragon...

Go with Elf.

Humans do get something though, right? Just wondering what that would be.

Three questions for Mr. casualoblivion, if he'll be so kind as to answer them

1) Does the Ranger get any new stealth based attacks, utilities, or feats in Martial Power (a-la Forrest Ghost)?
2) What are the paragon paths available to rogues?
3) Is the Sylvan Archer path race specific?

gratzi, in advance
