    D&D General Why do we color-code Dragons?

    i don't think we need another more niche skill, we just need to give nature, arcana and religion more opportunity to pull their weight in identifying creatures and their weaknesses

    D&D 5E (2024) Using Action Surge to cast spells in 2024

    very much not in the spirit of the rules like people have said IMO however, there's a small chance i might be convinced to let them if they agree it counts as already using their magic action for their next upcoming turn, still hesitant to do that though, wouldn't want to set a precedent on...

    D&D General 5.5 PHB Species Options

    eh, i was just aiming for a low bar of better scaling damage or bigger AoE and more consistent use of breath weapon/flight but yours is good too.

    now imagine how well they'd be doing if they took that innate cool concept and added good design on top of it!

    D&D General Why do we color-code Dragons?

    you know, sometimes i wonder if the designers put the knowledge skills in the game for like, a purpose or if they and their bonuses are just there as decoration on the character sheet (a similar thought is had about social skills)

    D&D General 5.5 PHB Species Options

    at least fizbans made the adjustment that it only replaced a single attack rather than your whole attack action, that made it feel so much more able to slip into your action economy on alot of classes, and the ones that it didn't were the fullcasters who didn't get extra attack.

    D&D 5E (2024) 5.5 Fighter Best Eince 2E

    you mean how GWM/SS builds outclassed what they could achieve in damage so much it made them seem underwhelming by comparison?

    D&D 5E (2024) 5.5 Fighter Best Eince 2E

    are you describing martial players in general or are you referring to a specific subset, i had previously thought you were discussing the former in your post saying how 'martial players don't want buttons' but this makes me think you're talking about the latter.

    D&D General Why do people like Alignment?

    this i'm going to have to disagree on, IMO the value i'd identify as the root of the Chaotic alignment is liberty. A chaotic has no issue with government or organizations in and of themselves so long as they are not actively trying to enforce control. (and for lawful i'd identify it as...

    okay, but how does that relate to martial 'buttons'? how are you defining that term in this conversation/context?

    D&D General 5.5 PHB Species Options

    one thing i don't get about the gnome is that their two primary archetypes that DnD seems to want to focus on, to me seem to be directly opposed to each other in aesthetic, the unobtrusive and peaceful friend of animals forest dweller who excel with illusions VS the eccentric and loud city...

    D&D 5E (2024) 5.5 Fighter Best Eince 2E

    i mostly agree with your post but i'm catching on one thing here, some of which might just be your meaning in the phrasing of it in which case might you clarify for me, but my objection is, do martial players really desire less 'buttons' for their characters? one of the biggest complaints i tend...

    Alignment myths?

    i got almost halfway through this thread before realizing it was a necro, uh, some people might have some reacts on some very old messages... just for fun my myth is 'the morality of an act can be relative to what you have been taught it is', No, you might've been taught that it is right and...

    D&D 5E (2024) The 4 Classes I Would Not Play 1-20 In 5.5

    rogues, as i recall how some youtuber or other put it, for all their bonuses with expertise, still have to 'play by the rules' when it comes to problem solving, and spellcasters don't.

    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    all it took was one search, Search for: GM (thread titles only: on), From: Hussar, and it was the only result
