Possibly finding the items that warriors need to compete and lowering the cost on these to a level where the warrior can just afford a +2 sword and armor for the cost of a Headband of +2 intellect will be the answer. To harp on this, I never understood why increasing the ability to attack and damag...

You are insane. You are giving him a ranged attack in addition to his melee attacks. He is gaining a ranged attack, and he is losing absolutely nothing. This is not difficult to understand. He's losing his role as a soldier; to defend the squishies against attacks. That's more important in 4E than ...

That's a pretty huge non sequitor there...or do you not even know that it's impossible for a DnD4.0 character to have a 10 in all attributes? I'm thinking it's the latter, since you also clearly don't know that a 10 in all attributes precludes wearing the armor you specifically listed. Perhaps you ...

Okay, now lets try some basic brain usage. It's a little advanced for someone of your diminished mental capacity, but let's try it anyway. Which of the following is better: A Wizard with five castings of Burning Hands. A Wizard with five castings of burning hands and one of Detect Magic. Congratula...

1) Made the Hobgoblin more powerful. In fact, way more powerful. Not in the least. Let's do the math. Hobgoblin soldier = level 3 soldier. It's attack with a flail is +7 and it deals +4 damage so I'll assume that is the monster's base attack. It picks up a longbow and can now deal 1d10+4 on a range...

Congratulations on picking out a single sentence and claiming "victory." You fail in every aspect of arguing. Change doesn't mean rewrite or homebrew . Change means modify. For example, a standard hobgoblin doesn't have a ranged attack. How do we rectify this? By looking the DMG for the ba...

Most of the complaints I'm reading here have little to do with the rules and more to do with the Dungeon Master's inability to properly act. I've read most of this and skimmed through some of the individual posts but forgive me if I'm redundant or misinterpret something. 1. Fragile system: play like...
