I know there are several of you, including some staff members, that are waiting on me for some change requests. Shockingly my home remodeling project is taking longer then I thought, I actually had to take yesterday and today off work just to get these guys caught up. Hang on just 1 or 2 days at most and I will be caught up with NS4 projects.

Nothing like loosing money from both ends, work on the house and loss of pay from missing work

Starting today the overdue projects will get done.

I also want to revamp the documentation section. It should be a huge pain and why I am volunteering I have no idea

It would make the process much easier if the wiki was correct for sub races, factions, etc. Oddly enough I only play a couple types of characters so I dont know all the changes without going through all the scripts.

Any help would be appreciated, I wont start that project until this weekend.

I'm up to help, if you could pm me with details

I just need anyone who has played any of the subraces to take a look at the wiki and verify its correct, if the wiki is right then I can update the docs much quicker.

Not sure how the Githyanki psionic attack works, but its a little different than advertised. I sort of think its 1d6 * (character level / 3). So with 30 levels, you'll do either 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, or 60 damage.

Can anyone verify this?

The race stat and skill adjustments are correct.

Air and Water Genasi abilities are incorrect, they're custom scripts with a different DC (15+level/2 like fire genasi i believe, unsure of duration).

Can someone check what the author of the Tiefling page is talking about with the darkness giving 'Attacks of Opportunity'? I suspect this is supposed to say 'Sneak Attack'.

The faction pages are correct.

snirf and gold dwarf both appear to be correct on the wiki, with the exception of the documented 40% blur instead of 50%.

sneak attacks are only made when you have an attack of opprotunity.

air gen ability is gust of wind so its instantaneous and the duration is probably just 1 round.

Does this mean that all sneak attacks are also attacks of opportunity? So a rog with the opportunist feat makes all sneak attacks with +4 to ab, right?

not every sneak attack is an attack of opprotunity. just that when a rogue makes an AoO it becomes a sneak attack.

As long as there isn't UV or the non NS4 true seeing in Darkness involved all blinded PCs and NPCs suffer from attacks of opportunity by non handicapped combatants; at least I remember to have read something like that. That would explain why darkness, UV and sneak or death attacks seem to work very well together.

Gah. AFAIK an AOO is given by movement, spellcasting, ranged atacks etc. Amoenotep is correct that any AOO is also a sneak atack (but not vice versa), but i don't understand how AOOs could be 'created' by darkness (in fact IIRC in normal darkness spellcasting and ranged attacks *don't* provoke an AOO even from UVed opponents...).
