    DDAL Guide: Customizing Starting Gear in AL

    Does this rule about GP earned from selling starting equipment only apply to rebuilt characters, or does it also apply to brand new characters?

    Caster feats

    I'd like to see feats for magic item construction/crafting and enchanting. Stuff along the lines of making scroll and potion crafting easier, enabling permanent or semi-permanent enchanting of arms and armor, things of that nature.

    Was Gandalf Just A 5th Level Magic User?

    Since Gandalf was a Maiar, I've often seen him statted as an Outsider with a few levels Fighter; spells are more racial abilities.

    D&D 5E The Blade Lock- A Mini Guide.

    Why not consider a 2 level start as Paladin, then move into Bladelock? Delaying the Blade until 5th character level may be a slowdown, but since Warlock spells can power Paladin Smite, that enables a pool of additional damage d8's that recharges fully on short rests (especially nice since...

    D&D 5E Build my concept; AL legal Bladelock Sith (Inspired by DW's Warlock thread and responses)

    Apologies; went straight for the 5e section as I thought this was like other forums, without a dedicated character building forum. Is there an easy way to move this there, or do I need to message a Mod? I don't want to duplicate the thread, as that seems a worse faux pas. This is fantastic...

    Sell me on the Warlock

    OP wants a 9th level Warlock that doesn't rely on EB? Here's a 9th level Warlock that doesn't rely on EB. I honestly love the warlock for more than just crunch; it's a class designed to give the DM hooks. A Pal2/lockX? Started out wanting to be a hero; instead of taking the Oath at third...

    D&D 5E Is the rapier "necessary"?

    This has been a thought of mine ever since I discovered his channel, but I can't imagine the amount of work involved in adjusting the rules to match. Back to the topic at hand; there was a thread on another form ages ago regarding the math of 5e weapon stats.... Found it! Shame it died so...

    D&D 5E Build my concept; AL legal Bladelock Sith (Inspired by DW's Warlock thread and responses)

    Inspired by Darkwing's "Sell me on the Warlock" thread, and the fantastic responses therein, I have a request. Adventure League legal, no-multiclassing, Pact of the Blade Warlock built to be a Sith. My thoughts: While Armor of Shadows may fit thematically, it's not worth giving up a better...

    Professor Build Concept

    Which do you folks think makes a better Marcus Brody? I'm aiming for all INT skills (though Nature isn't a must), Perception and Persuasion would be nice to have as well. Knowlege Cleric: Proficiency in 4 skills, with Expertise in 2, and 2 bonus language proficiencies. Can use Channel Divinity...

    AL; Normal experience?

    That makes a lot more sense. Not being familiar with AL play, I'm still getting a feel for the different TYPES of modules, episodes, arcs, etc. When it comes to rebuilding the character; Player Guide says anything except what goes on logsheet can change, but DM said can' change equipment. Am I...

    AL; Normal experience?

    I've gotten involved with a AL game at my FLGS that feels a bit less...structured than I expected. Being my first actual 5e play, I have nothing to compare it against, so I seek input from ya'll fine folks. For example, no details on downtime at the end of the session, starting sessions with a...
