His "Players" are Professional Voice Actors engaged in putting on a massively profitable made for profit presentation intended for passive viewer consumption. Are you suggesting that is the bar players should be expected to meet after choosing not to ring out during a pre-session zero casting...

The mechanics alone are responsible and many people pointed it out during the play test. When an at will passively applied effect lasts for one round and can't be stacked it becomes logical to swap to a different weapon on the second attack and if someone already applied it before your turn.

First 5.25game i played in I had a warlock player lean over to me (a wizard player) and say something like"this is stupid and I'm bored to tears" because every martial was juggling weapons like they were putting on a circus show between wandering around pointlessly at no risk while breaking up...

3.x and 2e∆ versions of that were passive.it happen because of where everyone was in relation to each other how they were facing and sometimes because the one taking turn was about to do something that gave one of the others a chance to be sticky with an AoO due to movement or spellcasting...

Flash flash hundred yard dash is that you? Have you seen a human moving around in the world?

I covered this before and have no idea why you are quoting that post asking for a definitionof a single term thrown out by another poster by describing "a grouping of play styles" so broad that it can't even be narrowed down to a single definable thing. You kinda proved the point. I don't run...

I'm not the one who first used the term you are up in arms over me having mentioned. I'll take this deflection as acceptance that simply asking for said term to be defined in plain English without quoting the blog post is a very high bar.

Without quoting the blog post or resorting to jargon define it in plain English.

I don't think that bold bit is irrelevant and would very much prefer that inventory weight tracking/encumbrance had proper rules+sheet support not intended to nullify their own impact. Just that the 5e mechanics related to it pretty much makes it difficult for weight of things carried in...

Not looking to weigh in with agreement or disagreement on the snipped bit, but this deserves a 🔫🐈‍⬛🔫 🗞️🐶🗞️ type correction because it ignores the consequences of design that requires the GM to use it just to fix a conflict with "🤷‍♀️give players what they want🤷‍♀️"design intent. When the gm...

I vaguely remember similar but again it boils down to why they would dock there rather than some advanced industrialized area where there is a government like thay silvery moon or whatever Those crafting capabilities aren't exclusive to water deep. Thay and silvery moon both have high end...

When playing I use a form fillable PDF in an old copy of PDFxchange∆ so I can edit the parts not formfillable to plug in things as needed & take notes. As a gm I sometimes try to push a specific sheet but don't fight too hard because too much I'd want to see on the sheet is missing from the...

I think that's the 2014 math too. Needing 16 strength isn't that high given the characters typically lifting stuff. Beyond that is the fact that having linear∆ capacity linked to an almost implausible penalty and a character sheet they doesn't even pretend that it should be tracked leads to...

What was the nonspecified return from death? I'm going to second some of the comments made previously and add a suggestion of my own. As others said, healing downed PCs up should never be really a waste --UNLESS-- the PC in question wastes it. That feeds into the second & larger problem...
