Topic 1: D&D 4E Epic Destinies

10-15 minutes – Submitted by Chad

Wizards article can be found here.

“When your character reaches 21st level, you can choose your epic destiny.

What does that mean?

Your epic destiny is a few things, actually. While it’s true that your epic destiny allows you to bend, break, or ignore some of the laws of the universe, an epic destiny isn’t merely about acquiring even more power. After all, you continue to gain more and more powerful class powers as you rise toward 30th level, some of which are nearly as fantastic as those your epic destiny provides.”

Topic 2: D&D 4E Stealing (back) from Video Games

10 minutes – Submitted by Rob

D&D has been stealing (back) a lot of innovations from video games. Is this a bad thing or a good thing?

Topic 3: 4E Magic Items

10-15 minutes – Submitted by Rob

Wizards article can be found here.

“We’ve been saying for a long time that we wanted magic items in 4th Edition to take up a smaller portion of a typical character’s array of options than in previous editions. The primary method used to accomplish this was to expand the average character’s class- and race-based power options. Even if a 4th Edition PC carried around the same array of gear as his 3rd Edition counterpart, you could still honestly say that those items were a smaller percentage of his options than before.”

Topic 4: Round Table

Open round table where we just bring up anything we feel like.
