    Or cast before a long rest and make sure do your combats in the morning. Possibly cast before a short rest if you have a Warlock / Sorlock

    D&D 5E (2024) Bringing Back A Prestige Class?

    What's does "shadow caster" do? Make all your spells black? I don't see why they can't be done witha feat. Prerequisite: spell casting or Pact Magic *all your spells look like shadows. ...

    D&D 5E (2024) Bringing Back A Prestige Class?

    With feats and subclasses, there are enough ways to customize characters. No need for prestige IMO. Ranger could be a feat anyone can take. Ranger: +1 Dex, Str, Wis, or Con *explorer: gain expertise in nature and survival *hunter: you can cast Hunter's Mark at-will. You can also cast it on tracks

    How does Prolong stacks with Sorcerer's Extended metamagic? Can we get 48 hour spells?

    Do it before battle.

    D&D 5E (2024) Circle Casting is gonna break a lot of games

    once you can hit everyone in the room, extra size (or range) doesn't help. And in my experience, Spirit Guardians can hit everyone most of the time. Expanding it might save a Disengage or Dash now and then, but not usually worth the cost IMO. Extra duration however, turning 1 minute into 1...

    D&D General Poll: How many Role Playing Games do you play besides D&D?

    Only D&D, at the moment. Certainly would play any of the other ones if I had opportunity.

    D&D 5E (2024) Circle Casting is gonna break a lot of games

    everything is at the DMs discretion. well I don't have the book... so no. I didn't see where it says NPCs need higher level slots. That helps prevent some abuse.

    D&D 5E (2024) Circle Casting is gonna break a lot of games

    No. It's an 8th level slot (upcast to target 5), and a few hired NPCs before you the night before ylj leave town. Might as well toss Longstrider, Aid, Feather Fall, Blink, Death Ward, Regeneration, and Foresight while you at it. Possibly others non-concentration buffs I've missed. Then take a...

    D&D 5E (2024) Circle Casting is gonna break a lot of games

    it's going to be rare to use in combat. But giving the party 24 hours Freedom of Movement at the end of the day can set you up for tomorrow's dungeon crawl. Or 8 hours of Haste, Spirit Guardians, or Fly. Moonbeam or Flaming Sphere for 1 hour is much more useful to drag between combats. Long...

    D&D 5E (2024) Ranged Builds Thread

    right, I was thinking warlock 5. I have one of those in my game. no, but it's still damage your adding. Just indirectly. (Or more likely being used for AC boost) You can always go bladelock 6 first if that's better at low levels. Then warlock 2 will be at 2 beams when you get it. Or go...

    Yes. Though EB+ hex+familiar+Repelling Blast isn't exactly bad at low levels. Warlock 2 is enough for that. Valor 6 next, getting 1 weapon+2 beams+3d6 hex + 4d8 bardic inspiration damage per short rest. Still at 18 Cha, but 3 attacks should be decent. Then the rest in Sorcerer. Using slots...
