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

    You you absolutely can pick between a few options each attack. A level 5 barbarian can use a Warhammer to push, club for slow, and then nick with a dagger. All on the same turn. Every turn. Also, I don't see any issue if you just "swapped grip" on your weapon in place of swapping weapons...

    D&D 5E (2024) Ranged Builds Thread

    Thief, IMO. Climb speed really helps a ranged build. Being hidden with expetise in Stealth is easy. And that gives advantage on initiative and your first attack. So that really undercut Assassian, especially without scaling the damage. Similarly, arcane trickster isn't going to have many...

    IMO, if your within 30', your not really ranged. That's more like "long reach". Semantics and options I know, but if they can walk up to you and still attack on their turn, your not "ranged" Hand crossbows with Sharpshooter would quality. Or if you added Slow. Immobilize, or difficult...

    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

    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...
