    D&D 5E (2024) A critical analysis of 2024's revised classes

    if anything, the revised classes of 2024 were not revised enough. if my old PHB was not a salad by 2024, I would not bother with buying a new one. Most changes you can be written in by pen in the old book or at worst with post-it note. wizard was basically not touched, just "refined", it is...

    D&D General Magical Non-Spellcasting Ranger and Paladin

    paladin has a "non-magic" option or better yet, low-magic option. it's smite. you can play non brainer paladin and just use every single spell slot for smiting. something similar for a ranger: Hunter's fury: once on your turn, as a part of Attack Action you can spend a spell slot to make extra...

    D&D General Arcanists Without Spell Slots

    This sound like 5E needs better skill system, or just better table of what can be done with certain skills. what can be done with each skill with what degree of difficulty, and what is gated behind having proficiency and having expertise. IE, without proficiency max DC that can be made with...

    D&D General Dragonmarks in other settings

    most dragonmark feats are trash, especially "greater" version of them(maybe that is my hatred towards d4 dice is spilling out), so potent dragonmark stands out. Yes, it is very powerful feat, depending on your base dragonmark feat. but it does not break anything. maybe the solution for your...

    D&D 5E (2024) New Feats, avenues to diversity?

    then, if you want non-optimization, add 3 slots for feats that you thing are not powerful, remove +1 ASI that goes with that feat(if any), and have 3 of those slots at levels 1,3 and 5. then players can have both. or all monks need to take Chef feat so they appear that players are "not...

    D&D General Dragonmarks in other settings

    I can use them for noble houses of Waterdeep, or just appearing for individuals dragons predicted for greatness in the future.

    D&D 5E (2024) New Feats, avenues to diversity?

    I can see Spellfire Adept working on Paladin. waiting for a crit then smite. adding +4d10 on a smite few times per day might be worth a feat. bear totem barbarian could have good usage of Bloodlust,

    D&D General + Homebrew Brainstorm to bring back prepared Vancian Casting +

    it was capped in 3E also, at 10d6, but that was probably due to autascaling with levels. PF1 did have metamagic for +1 spell level that raised max damage dice by 5, Intensified spell feat, so at 15th level you could use 4th level spell slot for 15d6 fireball.

    D&D General Full Caster Artificer +

    maybe use a faster half caster house rule? left table is default, right table is with faster progress. SP value is about the same, less total spell slots earlier, but you get to your 5th level spells as fast as a full caster.

    or just make upcasting worth it. IE: fireball: 2nd level evocation, fire Action 150ft range dex save deal 5d6 fire damage, 15ft radius. half damage on a save. you can reduce radius by 5ft to increase damage by 1d6. if you reduce radius to 0, it becomes ranged spell attack that deals half damage...
