NOTÍCIAS D&D 4e

[Deicide]

Mecanicamente falando, o Heal Surge é uma forma de depender menos do Clérigo. É um "se vira na emergência". Lembrem-se que é limitado por dia e por encontro (um por encontro, x/dia). É um mecanismo para aumentar a sobrevivência das classes sem depender de um líder.

Interpretativamente, simboliza essa recuperação heróica, que o herói derrotado se ergue e volta a lutar.

[ShinRyuu]

Novidades: Proficiência com arma dá +2 no Ataque, e algumas armas são mais precisas que outras, então adagas e rapiers têm +1, algumas têm +0, e acho que warhammer tem -1 sendo que o Dwarven Weapon Training dá +2 com ele. Por isso que tava parecendo que todo mundo começava com +3 de base de ataque.

XP works a lot differently now too. EVERYTHING you do can pretty much get you XP. The big change is that Social Encounters will net you xp. Traps and puzzles are XP based rather than just CRs. And taking a tip from WoW, there are even QUEST REWARDS now. The DMG even includes suggestions on how PC’s can instigate their own quests. These are no longer vague rule suggestions – but are instead hard and fast rules that allow you to really control the rate of level progression without feeling like you’re just lumping XP on the PC’s. At the same time, the new system allows you to take the players from one level to the next without ever having to swing a sword. Not that you’d necessarily want to, but all of a sudden courtly intrigue and puzzle quest heavy campaigns are just as viable XP wise as straight hack and slash. And it’s all based on the same simple mechanics.

Essa parte eu fiz questão de mencionar. Tem mais informações na fonte: http://www.aintitcool.com/node/35799

[Eltor Macnol]

Isso me relembrou daqueles quest cards. Eu preferia não ter lembrado dos quest cards. Mas ver darem foco ao jogo sem combates é algo muito bom, sim!

E outra coisa que me agradou MUITO:

And nothing, I repeat, NOTHING, takes away XP anymore. No more level loss. No more XP to fuel abilities or make magic items. Nothing. In fact the book encourages you to award XP to absent players, just so everyone always has the same amount and is playing at the same level. I’ve been doing this, and the players love it.

Eu venho fazendo isso desde, bem... sempre, e adoraria ver isso se tornar o padrão.

[Wykthor]

Só complementando, vale a pena ressaltar que a "resenha" tem duas partes. A primeira encontra-se no link: http://www.aintitcool.com/node/35776

Alguns pontos que chamaram a atenção:

And at the same time, character death isn’t as easy as it used to be. Level 1 characters are front loaded with hit points and abilities, so the old accidental crit by the goblin archer won’t actually kill a player. It’s a slight bit tougher than that now. And it becomes even tougher if there’s a cleric in the group. A strong, smart healer can stand up near death characters several times before they actually risk permanent death. This is going to be a big change for some folks, as the weekly “Who do we have to pay to get raised this week” becomes much less frequent (until Epic, when pretty much everyone can Res for free, on a daily basis. You get abilities that let you do cool things when you die. Swear to Pelor. Epic is weird.)

Then of course you have to figure out loot. Who doesn’t love loot? Well, in 4E there’s a hell of a lot less of it. It also doesn’t affect a lot of the things it used to. But it is still as important as ever. The loot rules pretty much give players a new magic item every level. And the gear gives you new abilities, protection from abilities or simply modifies your attacks or defenses. There are no more stat bump items, nor are you expected to have magic loot at certain levels. The result is a system that allows low or no magic campaigns without a lot of heartache or rule tweaking. Magic items all do COOL things. Armor doesn’t just protect you, it also gives you things to do in combat. Items you wear give you options, not bumps. And the abilities things grant make them useful for levels beyond what loot used to. There are items I can imagine being just as useful at level 20 as it was at level 4. The overall result of all of these loot changes is a system more about fantasy, character and story than it is about Min/Maxing. There’s a lot more “This is the cloak given to me by Queen Soandso and a lot less “Dude, why are you still wearing that +2 Periapt of Wisdom. You’re level 12 now.”

Nada a ver com "resenha" foi a notícia de que no D&D Experience foram expostas duas páginas do Monster Manual e do Player's Handbook. No link abaixo até transcreveram as fichas de dois monstros (Bodak e Boneclaw).

Páginas 176-177 do Player's Handbook (com uma miniatura de gigante do fogo em cima)

SPOILER: EXIBIR

Páginas 36-37 do Monster Manual

EDIT: Algumas informações de playtesters no D&D Experience:

1)

It says "Spellbook" on the character sheet as a power, and again on the character sheet's Equipment entry. It describes the purpose of a spellbook to be in selecting and preparing your per day abilities. Unlike most classes who have one per day ability, the wizard has two and chooses which one to prepare for that day.

Thats right. Having extra dailies to choose from is a unique wizard thing. (I choose acide arrow, which now has an area effect...it was still a mistake...). Its essentially the last vestige of Vancian casting, but in this form is a nice little feature. Not a daunting responsibility.

2) one of the most important is the clerics healing ward. D6 + Wisdom Modifier + targets healing surge. This can be done twice an enounter.

[Lune]

É muita informação nova de uma vez
1) Bem, o novo sistema de xp parece mais óbvio para novatos, pelo menos. Eu queria saber se a velocidade que você ganha níveis aumentou mesmo ou não.
2) Como raios vai funcionar a criação de itens?
3) A diagramação parece bem sexy.

[Vincer]

Finalmente.

Sem perder levels, sem gastar xp para itens mágicos e finalmente o xp organizado e focando com o devido respeito o que não é combate. Uma boa parte da minha lista de rixas com o D&D se foram com a 4ª edição, coisas que eu criticava a mais de uma década.

Ele pelo visto vai perder a posição de terceiro pior sistema que eu conheço :D

[ShinRyuu]

Essa do spellbook a gente já viu na ficha de Skamos, que postei aqui. Não gostei muito da idéia que o mago só precisa do livro pra trocar a magia por dia, sou muito apegado à idéia de que ele tem que ficar estudando seu livro diariamente para manter as magias claras na mente. Mas isso seria uma house rule muito fácil de aplicar.

Lune: Criar itens serão rituais. Pelo que tá dando pra preceber, rituais são como fórmulas que você pode aprender sem limites, ou que não precisam ser aprendidas mas apenas consultadas, e sempre consomem recursos financeiros (que provavelmente representam reagentes e focos). Como itens mágicos não serão comprados, o valor indicado na sua descrição se refere ao custo do ritual.

[ShinRyuu]

Mortos-vivos que vi até agora são Natural Animate (Undead), Shadow Animate (Undead) e Shadow Humanoid (Undead). O animate deve ser o que só tem animus, sem alma, e o humanóide deve ter animus e alma.

**

Derrubar e desarmar não são mais manobras comuns, agora requerem poderes ou habilidades de classe.

Empurrar (bull rush) é For vs. Fort, sem AdO, e empurra somente 1q. Habilidades especiais podem aumentar o empurrão.

Agarrar começa com For vs Ref, sem AdO; sucesso deixa o oponente imobilizado (immobilized, não pinned) por 1 rodada. O defensor pode escapar com Acrobatics vs. Ref ou Athletics vs. Fort. Pode mover o defensor 1q com um segundo teste de agarrar, na rodada seguinte.

Immobilized não pode se mover e concede vantagem de combate aos adjacentes, mas pode agir normalmente.

Stunned não larga itens.

Slowed reduz Spd para 2 para todas as formas de movimentação, exceto teleportação.

Defesa total dá +2 a todas as defesas por 1 rodada e não permite agir.
