Freakin’ finally. These new class features really capture the essence of a traditional Rogue. No shuriken attack bonuses, no strength based damage added to sneak attack, just the good stuff you imagine a Rogue should do.

The Fighter is a master of all melee weapons. It’s become very clear from all the supplemental materials that have been released. But aren’t your fists melee weapons as well? Indeed they are, and Martial Power 2 has got you covered.

Player’s Handbook 2 introduced the Primal power source, so just to keep with the theme of one new power source per book the Player’s Handbook 3 introduces Psionics. Psionics have a legion of fans out there so a lot of people have been clamoring for this book. I’ve actually found Psionics pretty annoying in the past, but this time around I actually like it. They feel more Jedi-like and less like an overpowered version of the normal magic system. Beyond Psionics, this book also introduces Skill powers and Hybrid Classes. Where the Player’s Handbook 2 pretty much fleshed out all of the original classes from 3rd Edition’s PHB, this book finally gives us the Monk while also giving us some of the most revolutionary material we’ll probably get all year.

This is a sequel to the class expanding Martial Power. Wizards of the Coast has managed to make their previous books not just rehashes of the same formulas to try to make another sale. These books are about evolving Dungeons and Dragons better and faster than in 3rd Edition’s entire lifespan. As to be expected, this isn’t just a clone of Martial Power with some switched around bells and whistles.

I hate how so many video game reviews just have to get churned out before the experience can really be digested. The knee jerk reaction to a game that you have to sit down and play through in one sitting as opposed to playing that same game over the course of a month or two [...]

I’ve compiled a bunch of mini-reviews together for each article detailed in this issue of Dragon magazine. The Seeker Read the article HERE Abyssal Genasi The equivalent to deformed in the Genasi community, their abyssal counterparts are shunned for their bizarre manifestations. Genasi are closely connected to the elemental planes of existance and in the [...]

The Vistani are the D&D equivalent of gypsies. Not really a race but a cultural heritage. It feels more like a race because of the potency of their encounter power (Evil Eye of the Vistani) and the feats that augment it. The Vistani Heritage feats are like getting access to a second set of really [...]

It’s a little strange reviewing material released by Wizards of the Coast for 4th Edition D&D. At first, I could compare the material to 3rd Edition and make some very insightful judgments based sheerly upon that. Since then 4th Edition has truly sunk into to my (and hopefully your) psyche as a truly superior tabletop [...]
