How To Divide Up Loot? I'm not clear how this answers the question posed. The question is about dealing with imbalance of loot distribution among the players. Your answer is about encounter balance. |

Designing my own D&D Adventure @RMDan -- exactly - the idea of this method is that you can scale it up or down in terms of the scope for which you are plotting, and you can scale it up or down in complexity too (3x3, 10x10!!!) |

What alternatives are there to replace orcs, kobolds, and hobgoblins in low-level encounters? The most upvoted answers talk about techniques.... Which redeems the question somewhat. |

How do passive skills work? rpg.stackexchange.com/questions/13891/… and rpg.stackexchange.com/questions/16461/… are also closely related |

Is it normal that players share their characters' thoughts? I think you're bang on the confusion is that "say" can be read as both "say aloud", and "determine" |

Is there a place where I can get good Pathfinder building maps? I think you need to be more specific - pre printed battlemats? Jpeg's for a virtual table? Schematics of buildings? |

Are there good tools for managing custom (homebrew) classes? @JoshuaAslanSmith Yes. To be specific you need to know how to edit XML files - I've edited my answer to note that. |

What are supported 4e campaign settings? It's also worth noting that large, significant elements of Spelljammer, Ravenloft and Planescape have been incorporated into the PoL setting. |

The Undying Deva The D&D Novel Spinner of Lies by Bruce Cordell has as a main character a Deva named Damascus. I've not read it so I can't really suggest what you might learn from the book, but it could help. |

House rules for flanking How would your proposed house rule help the problem you face? Would the PCs not be just as likely to get to a different conga line and then stop? |

In depth world building. Making connections Not an answer, as (a) I don't really know the system, and (b) I've never done it, but: Could the setting building mechanics in Dresden Files where the whole group creates the important things in the settings and collectively maps out the important connections between them be used or adapted here? |

How can I gauge the strength of my PCs in Legend? I removed the signature from your answer, as typically we don't use them, and allow the site's attribution to serve. |

Does cover also grant concealment? I'm not clear how this answers the posters question. |

Challenging pre-made campaign for veteran players but easy on new GMs A word of warning: there are two Tomb of Horrors modules released by WotC for 4E. The hardcover book that spans much of paragon tier in 3 separate adventures. And a remake of the original AD&D ToH that was given as as part of the DM rewards program, and is intended for 9th level characters. |

Making epic combat interesting and challenging but not complicated I think there's a support group for that. But, yeah, rather than going down that route consider having a single encounter wide environment (or one that is easy to see like "all squares on the mat that are difficult terrain") and give it one big effect (perhaps that weakens as enemies are killed) |

My group's misunderstood opportunity attacks for years; what to do now I know this? The crux of this answer "be open and honest and discuss with positive suggestions" is a great answer for all sorts of situations |

LFG: Looking for Guineapigs (aka players to test an encounter..or 4) This is similar to (but perhaps different enough to not duplicate) rpg.stackexchange.com/questions/18665/… |

Where does the stereotype that wizards can't wear armor come from? @SevenSidedDie I considered voting to close on the grounds that this question has great potential for rambling discussion and speculation, but decided to VtC in the hope that answers would be "well behaved" |

Does a hidden creature trigger powers from those it's hidden from? The rules of the hidden club community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75882/25474357/…. don't answer this, but are important reading for anyone trying to understand Hidden in 4E |

Does sustaining Mountain's Might allow an extra attack? Further, note that in Mountain's Might, the effects of the form are described, then target's ability to end the form is described, then the attack is mentioned. The implication being that the attack is not part of the form. |
