Well, Lord Kiwi said in the old thread that he wasn't going to update it once 4e came out. Well, 4e is out, and the thread needs updating, so as my first main foray into the forum, I plan to bring it back, update it etc. As a bonus, it'll keep me coming back here to make sure no one posted something new!

IN PROGRESS!

Ok, after a bit of work, the first two stats are up. I'll try to get the others up sometime tomorrow. Anything marked with *?* means I need that info.

*STRENGTH*

I suggest you to copy the entirety of the previous thread. Makes it a lot easier for you and everyone who wants to contribute since then we already know what do we have for each stat.

I intend to, however simply copy/pasting loses all the nice columns, so I need to neaten them all up as well. It'll be done sometime after I get home from school today. Within 24 hours for sure.

EDIT: Oh, I read it wrong, the whole thread, eh? Alrighty, I'll make a massive sblock it seems.

You need to add all of the original post and then the few bits after it was abandoned like:
+
Fey-craft Template
DMG II p275
Damage, replaces Strength, light weapons only
+
Dragon 337 has a feat called spell graft which has some requirements (know arcana 8, Craft Wonderous items, and spontaneous arcane casting). It lets you give up a spell to graft it to a body part and use it 4 times a day. One of the examples was giving up Truestrike and getting the ability to add Int to your attack for 1 round per character level in addition to Dex
+
Another feat to add to the dexterity list, from dragon magazine:

Dead Eye: add dexterity bonus to your damage with ranged attacks so long as they are within 30 ft.
+
Lvl 3 Tomb Warden lets you add your charisma moddifer to Attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws for 10 minutes a day. Libris Mortis pg. 58

Just click the QUOTE bottom at the end of the post you wish to copy and then copy the neatly formatted text that pops up, saves you a whole lot of formatting.

Oh and make sure to give credit to the old author

And yes, of course I'll give LordKiwi credit.

Fey-craft Template
DMG II p275
Damage, replaces Strength, light weapons only

Am I reading this wrong, all I find is that the weapon now has reduced its size damage die one level, ie 1d6-> 1d4. The weapon is also considered Light, and you get dex to HIT. I dont see any mention of dex to damage....Could anyone please confirm either way for me?

while i'm posting here I can as well give my vote, I prefer the new way (sorry I didnt pm )

The old method is better.

Allows for quicker scan of all sources of a relevant stat to a relevant outcome.

Finally:

Mortal Hunter 5th level, Book of Vile Darknesss p65: Wisdom to saves vs spells

Moon-Warded Ranger 2nd level Dragon 340,p55: Wisdom to AC as a monk.

Thank you for this sofawall, the revival is very appreciated!

Format:
I would not say the old format was "Great" but is was functional because it allowed you to simply scan down the left hand side and pick up the stats you wanted. A new format wouldn't hurt but I don't suggest using the Sblocks.

Thnaks for feycraft catch! It's you guys that make this possible, as I lack both time and books to catch all these.

Also, I'm gonna be experimenting with the format a bit. If you see something awful, tell me. Something you like, tell me.

I like the new format. The old one was entirely devoid of bold and italics.

I request you widen the columns so everything fits horizontally. If needed, use 2 lines. Italicize the source, like Complete Divine.

I still don't like Races/Classes/Etc being in different spoiler blocks.

If I want to build something based on Str, I want to be able to see all my options for each at once, so I can more readily make sure I hit them all. I don't want to have to open and close nested spoilers back and forth to do it. ;)

Alright, no at the moment sblocks are out, and it seems we want wider columns so they line up properly and italics and bolded items. I can't do that today, I have much homework, but I'll get on doing that.

Also, leave a blank line or 2 between sections and bold the headings.

I think I noticed a mistake in the Intelligence column

Under the entry of Montebank 1 it says "social skills" but it only adds int to bluff

I like the information you added in, and think that should be present in Lordkiwi's as well. I also don't mind the spacing between categories. However, I really dislike have to click each individual tab to open them for the Show function. I could do without that.

On a review, I want to suggest a change to your addition. Rather than listing the page and book numbers in the middle, maybe shift them to the far right and wrap long descriptions of effects.

This is my variation on your format. I've only done Strength as an example, for now.

If people like this system, I'm agreeable to tossing more of it out there. If Sofaking thinks he can handle it and wants to, I'm perfectly fine with letting him do the work ;)

Hmm, interesting. Separate blocks, but not spoilers. What do you guys think?

And as for not making them all one format, I kinda forgot about this thread.

Sorry guys, it'll be another day or two. I have choir practice tomorrow for a concert on Saturday so I can't miss that, and I accidentally closed the tap when I mean to click it so I could hit post, so I just lost all my work on it. It was almost done, too

Always write out large posts in notepad-- you never know what's going to happen to what you write when you hit the submit reply or other buttons. It seems like every time I forget to hit Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C before I post I end up losing my post. I think it's coded into the WotC boards.

Not sure if this qualifies since it is a stacker, not a replacement.

The 10th level of Mythic Exemplar for Reikhardt gives the ability to add your CHA bonus to either Fort or Will saves (chosen when you reach level 10) of yourself and all allies within 60'.

thank you for what you're doing, this thread is truly helpful.

you've missed a spot, though:

I'm not sure why it's not here, so there: Escalation Mage (Faiths of Eberron) gets CHA to HP once + Class Level (making it give 6d4+6+CHA HP over it's 6 levels).

I think it's worth mentioning that the Geomancer prestige class allows multi-classed spellcasters to use the best qualities from any spellcasting class, i.e. a wizard/cleric could use Int or Wis as modifier.

also, i prefer Selerik version, really.
also, did anyone bother to inform LordKiwi?
