For the classes that have class features instead of encounter or daily powers, how will they work with actual paragon paths/epic destinies that grants encounter & daily powers?

Does the essentials model for character class design represent the way in which classes will be made from now on?  Or can we expect to see more traditional classes (eg. at-will, encounter, daily based) released in the future?

2) Will there be new Fighter daily powers or encounter powers, usable by PHB fighters, printed in any books in 2010 or 2011?




at least according to the guy who got the book and started a thread here, there is a fighter build in dark sun with numbered fighter powers




Hmm... i meant post-essentials actually... I guess I have to reword my question more carefully.  This is why I always ended up on a deserted island in the future frozen in ice whenever I tried to make a Wish in 2nd edition :~(

I just checked out amazon and it said sept 7. I am assuming flagship stores will get it early. Mine gets about a week to 10 days early

Can I start buying electronic versions of my source books (in PDF or eBook format) that you will be updating with errata as it comes so that I can "download" an updated version as needed and still feel my money was well spent?

Yes it is.  I'll rephrase if necessary.

Will Wizards be taking this opportunity to finally release their product line, starting with the essentials product, in electronic format for their customers.  Dare I say, like their compedators do.

Will content developers still have the ability to put level based requirements on feats thus giving them an easy mechanism to make feats available to appropriately leveled characters, ie crazy powerful feats only available to epic characters?
if so, will there be a finer grained level requirement(1,6,11,16,21,26) for feats so that there isn't such a disparity of power between level 10-11, and 20-21?
If not what is the current methodology for preventing the dichotomy of epic feats having a shorter pre-requisite chain leading to brokenness at early levels, and longer chain depth leading to more railroading and 'dead levels'?
DPR King Candidates 3.0
How much damage should I shoot for? Show

You're fired          : 1 Kills Per 5 Rounds = .2 KPR
Fair Striker          : 2 Kills Per 5 Rounds = .4 KPR
Highly Optimized : 3 Kills Per 5 Rounds = .6 KPR
Nerfbat please     : 4 Kills Per 5 Rounds = .8 KPR
It's OVER 9000!!!!!: 5 Kills Per 5 Rounds = 1+ KPR

DPR?  KPR?  KP4R?  Bless you Show

DPR = Damage Per round ~= Chance to hit * damage on a hit
KPR = Kills Per Round.  1 Kill = 8*Level+24 damage
       = DPR/(8*level+24)
KPNR = Kills Per N Rounds.  How many standards can you kill in N rounds?

i couldnt be happier about the new tile sets and the functionality of the package; with these being new products that will always be available, is it a safe assumption that many of the dungeon mag adventures will utilize these tile sets for their maps?
