Vote up a power (power complete!)

**Glooble Glistencrist** · 2008-12-10, 09:53 AM (ISO 8601)

Welcome to the least ambitious voting thread on the boards (that I can think of.) This thread aims to produce a single power, for an existing class. The idea is to do a massive amount of work for almost no payoff. It will probably be pretty lame.

The first vote is for what class will get the power. I am limiting this to 4e classes that have been officially released by Wizards of the Coast (as in, not only in online previews.) Voting ends at midnight tonight, unless I decide to
go to bed early, in which case it ends whenever I wake up tomorrow morning.

* Wizard*

**KKL** · 2008-12-10, 10:21 AM (ISO 8601)

Paladin needs more love.

**Glooble Glistencrist** · 2008-12-10, 11:05 PM (ISO 8601)

No one's voting, so I'm extending the deadline. How long? Who knows.

**Limos** · 2008-12-10, 11:07 PM (ISO 8601)

Spellscarred!

I don't know what that is, but it sounds more awesome than any of the others.

EDIT: See that? I could have broken the tie, I could have chosen. But no! I chose to make it a three way tie! Tremble at my voting! For I have doomed you to an eternal purgatory of nonvote!

**Shades of Gray** · 2008-12-10, 11:09 PM (ISO 8601)

Voting up a singe power is kinda pointless.

I'd prefer "vote up a build type"

e.g. War wizard, Brawny Rogue, Assault Swordmage, et cetera.

Votes being:

1) Class (Rogue, Wizard, etc.)

2) Base Ability Score (Dex, Con, Int, should be different than main. No dex for rogues)

3) Coherent theme (Knockback, Shifting, hitting multiple targets, etc.)

4) Flavour.

**Glooble Glistencrist** · 2008-12-10, 11:21 PM (ISO 8601)

I realize it's pointless. That's kind of why I'm doing it.

**Shades of Gray** · 2008-12-10, 11:26 PM (ISO 8601)

Very well then... Spellscarred.

**Alteran** · 2008-12-10, 11:40 PM (ISO 8601)

I shall go with swordmage.

**Reath** · 2008-12-10, 11:40 PM (ISO 8601)

Paladin, for great justice.

**Vic_Sage** · 2008-12-11, 12:04 AM (ISO 8601)

Paladin, specfically Strength, not enough love for the Strength Pally.

**Zeta Kai** · 2008-12-11, 12:08 AM (ISO 8601)

Oh, let's say Paladin.

**Reverent-One** · 2008-12-11, 01:10 AM (ISO 8601)

Artificer!

...What do you mean that's not allowed?

In that case, Paladin. BTW, what's a spellscarred? From the Forgetten Realms guide, I take it?

**Alteran** · 2008-12-11, 01:12 AM (ISO 8601)

It is a multiclass-only class from the Forgotten Realms guide. It's a bit odd, since it can't be your base class. I've never tried it myself, so I don't know how it works out.

Thanks solely to this quote, I, too, vote for Paladin.

**Ethrael** · 2008-12-11, 01:40 AM (ISO 8601)

Ranger! To make up for the lack of druids!

**Mando Knight** · 2008-12-11, 10:59 AM (ISO 8601)

Paladin! Needed more letters!

**Mercenary Pen** · 2008-12-11, 11:14 AM (ISO 8601)

Swordmage, because I'm playing one.

**Glooble Glistencrist** · 2008-12-11, 12:22 PM (ISO 8601)

Votes are tallied. This phase will close and the next open around 6 tonight (EST, United States. That's midnight for you Brits online.

**Glooble Glistencrist** · 2008-12-11, 06:52 PM (ISO 8601)

So it looks like we're going for a Paladin power. The next vote is for what type of power it will be. It will close Friday at midnight (again, EST.) Vote for 1:

**Mercenary Pen** · 2008-12-11, 07:08 PM (ISO 8601)

What about At-Will Utilities? Because some classes have them (p66 PHB for an example).

**Reverent-One** · 2008-12-11, 07:10 PM (ISO 8601)

Daily, let's go wild on this sucker.

Didn't know about those. Added.

I go with this. Make it interesting.

**mikeejimbo** · 2008-12-13, 02:42 AM (ISO 8601)

I could break a tie here!

Or I could tie up another one!

Encounter Utility!

**KKL** · 2008-12-13, 03:04 AM (ISO 8601)

Why not At-Will Utility.

**Ethrael** · 2008-12-13, 04:52 AM (ISO 8601)

Daily for me too: let's make it a good one!

**Mercenary Pen** · 2008-12-13, 05:19 AM (ISO 8601)

Definitely Utility(At Will) for me.

**Emperor Demonking** · 2008-12-13, 09:57 AM (ISO 8601)

Utility At-Will.

**Glooble Glistencrist** · 2008-12-13, 01:05 PM (ISO 8601)

Votes are tallied, and the winner is At-will Utility. Fortunately, Martial Power has a whole bunch of those for me to look at as models.

So onto what will either be the last or second to last vote:

Level
