With only 6 dice, it look like by "80's style dice" they mean there is no second d10 for percentiles.

I have a Rogue/Celestial Warlock that made his pact with the spirit in Dawnbringer. Still won't be too far off to assume his service included releasing the spirit and he was left with the Sunblade.

I don't think you can teleport in. I guess it depends on how you look at "Spells and other magical effects can't extend through the dome" . Additionally, since it is opaque, you technically can't see a location inside for Thunder Step. I mention Dispel Magic since it is available at the same...

Don't forget that Leomund's Hut is a third level spell and automatically dies to Dispel Magic. I believe there is a at least 1 Demon with Dispel Magic at will, or the wandering "monsters" could have a caster among them. My players don't rely on Leomund's Tiny Bunker to exclusively get them...

While I personally prefer 5th, this is looking to be a good middle ground between that and my friends that prefer 3.5/Pathfinder.

I agree with those that suggest narrowing it down to 2 classes if you can. The big question is how do you see yourself playing this character. This is similar to a character I was looking at creating. For me, the Gloomstalker ability was the primary draw, followed by having a feat/ASI and...

My guess would be some DM's are just willing to do a little more work to get the correct value. The correct way would be to separate damage types and apply resistances to each separately. So the attack damage would by one of the weapon types and smite would be radiant. This would also come...

For this I would go with a Gloom Ranger and Rogue or Bard. The second is a little hard on the stats, but invisibility to darkvision and expertise goes a long way to keeping you out of sight in the dark. Throw in a few illusion/support spells from the Bard and you have the ability to distract...

8. Goblins have a profound fear of rocks.

This is a situation you really can't get into in organized play (as defined by AL). In AL, the PC becomes an NPC the moment its race does not match one available at character creation.

I think there is a big difference between being real-world and trying to have NPCs act in a realistic manner within the RPG setting. Obviously the whole point of RPG is to take you out of the first. That doesn't prevent the DM from attempting to follow the second.

I think you just need to find the middle ground. Find what works for you and your friends and ignore the more critical responses. The larger the town, the more likely individual members of different races will be more common. In the smaller towns, they may be met with suspicion, but that...

Wow, this is getting pretty personal very quickly. Just remember, this isn't Congress, so at a basic level we should continue on with the agree to disagree concept. Players and DM's all want different things and the ideal spot is where both are fully engaged. While I don't really condone...

I'm saying your response seemed be just as judgmental. You seem to be assume based on a single comment that all encounters are going to be focused on taking this one player down. Saying that there will be encounters that will challenge this certain build is not all that out of line. Implying...

I think you are being a little over judgmental meta-gaming DM's in general with that last line. A good DM should provide a variety of challenges to the players. Staying away from a players weakness is just as much meta-gaming as continuously focusing on it. I regularly set up...
