[QUOTE="Incenjucar, post: 3961230, member: 6182"] There's a lot of people who consider Burning Baby Kobolds an appropriate activity for paladins. Good roleplaying is how well you play your role. Social encounter rules should only affect whether or not your character is convincing. Depends on the characters' abilities to solve puzzles versus the players'. If you're playing a band of brain-damaged barbarians and you make sound tactical decisions THAT is equally problematic. We've been "roleplaying it out" for decades. I don't see this being any more difficult in the future. This just allows for a unified mechanic. We could roleplay out combat as well. Yes, and there are still on this Earth people who insist that said planet is flat, to this very day. Pay them equal heed. Hope so. I actually expressed "social combat" as something I deeply desired to see in 4E, on another forum, not too long ago. I'm glad to see that WotC has been reading my mind again. [/QUOTE]
