Aug 01, 2009 3:10:52 I've got a subscription currently, and I'm trying to find the rules for familiars from Arcane Power. Not the familiars themselves, those are in the Character Builder and Dragon. I'm looking for the rules of how familiars work in the first place. Are those rules accessible anywhere in D&Di, or do I need to get Arcane Power when that's basically the only thing I need out of that book that I can't get digitally?

Down side, I can see people cut and pasting and making your own books to sell.

I expect they'll stop short of that. They don't want DDi completely replacing the books I don't think.

I agree with that, but it would also be an answer to the whole PDF thing.
