    Split personality build

    Actually my original idea was to change personality each time I leveled and maintain 3 separate characters: Rowan: Pal/Sor Reave: Sor/War Rook: Pal/War The bookkeeping seemed daunting so I was trying out other ideas. The DM was cool with it, though.

    Split personality build

    Ok, so here's the flavor: A character with 3 personalities, each represented by one of these classes. Oh, the 3 personalities are brothers who don't get along: Oath of the Ancients Paladin represents Rowan, the self-righteous elder brother. Favored Soul Sorcerer represents Reave, the cynical...

    D&D 5E "Mystics are Lame" thread

    To me this is a feature, not a bug. It's fluff. Think of it as point-based spellcasting.

    D&D 5E Do you love Awesome Names?

    I prefer short and sweet: Badger: gnome barbarian (playtest) Flint: dwarf war cleric (playtest) Boone: human ranger (tyranny of dragons) Wyatt: human double hand crossbow fighter (PotA) Rowan: elf paladin (curse of strahd #1) Jericho: human cleric (curse of strahd #2) Nikolai: human...

    D&D 5E The classes that nobody wants to play

    Surprised cleric and druid scored so high. I'm in 2 groups and we always have at least one of each by choice. Assuming this is referring to the PHB ranger; not surprising. I've seen 2 monks in play and have yet to be impressed. The sorcerer likewise did not impress. They both have similar class...

    D&D 5E Please recommend some 5-10 room dungeons for low to mid level adventurers

    Google one page dungeon: http://www.sageadvice.eu/2016/03/22/need-an-adventure-one-page-dungeon/ This stuff is like crack to me. You can group them by theme and create a great sandbox.

    D&D 5E Surprisingly Lethal Side Effect of Multiattack

    It works both ways. Focus fire is deadly no matter who or what the target is. It's why WOTC recommends that solo baddies be of legendary status which matches my own experiences. s s.

    D&D 5E Is the major thing that's disappointing about Sorcerers is the lack of sorcery point options?

    I've never been a fan of the sorcerer as a separate class. To me it occupies the same design space as the warlock but the warlock does a much better job of fulfilling it.

    D&D 5E attrition mechanic

    We are currently playing around with this in my Divine Right campaign: HOLD THE LINE When you take this action your speed becomes zero and you have disadvantage on dexterity saving throws UNTIL YOUR NEXT TURN. In return you can cleave thru an enemy, killing it instantly. IF YOU ARE ABLE TO...

    D&D 5E The Eldritch Knight...what am I missing?

    Is it too soon for EK / Bladesinger discussion? Do these work well together?

    D&D 5E Tell me about 5E at 11th level

    I've noticed that our game changes at about level 13-14. It's all about the saving throws after that. YMMV

    D&D 5E What is your preferred level of play?

    Of the choices, I picked 5-9 but really it's 3-12 for me. After 12 it's all about 'did you make your save'.
