    D&D 5E [Out of the Abyss]Magic item distribution?

    Correct! The book even distinctly states that the set encounters in the back of chapter 2 aren't supposed to be used until after chapter 3 has been completed. I mean... I guess you can try to let your characters run threw the Sunblade encounter at level 3-4 or whatever, but they're unlikely to...

    D&D 5E Bardic Lore: A Basic College of Lore Bard Guide

    I think you vastly over-value Hex. The range requirement leash is fairly prohibitive in practice, especially with a DM who is aware of it and takes advantage. You should also really think about adding Counterspell to your magical secret recommendations. It's one of the best spells a Bard can...

    [UPDATED] Out of the Abyss Reviews Have Started Rolling In

    First time DM here: I just finished fully reading through Out of the Abyss and am really excited to run it for my players this week. After having played Hoard of the Dragon Queen, Rise of Tiamat, and Princes of the Apocalypse, my first impression is that this is a much better campaign than the...

    D&D 5E Thematic Differences Between Paladin (Green Knight/Oath of the Ancients) and Ranger

    I think you bring up a great point. Oath of Ancient Paladins CAN be a militant spiritual nature guardian, but their oath does not mandate it. When I read the Ancient Oaths I think of Rand al'Thor towards the end of the Wheel of Time series... (Wheel of Time Spoilers following) It may be hard...

    D&D 5E Hoard of the Dragon Queen going really fast

    Episode 1 took 3 sessions for our group, but we cleared Episode 2 in under 2 hours. We took a social route and were able to spring the Monk, all the Prisoners, and escape with pretty much no combat, including the two cultist groups leading up to the camp. It was also one of our favorite nights...

    D&D 5E Really want access to DungeonScape

    Totally agree! I doubt the release will sneak up on us without some kind of heads up from the Dungeonscape team, I was just trying to provide a bit of hope that it could happen sooner rather than later. I'd be somewhat surprised if October comes without the release. Though, if theres unforeseen...

    D&D 5E Really want access to DungeonScape

    Since it's already been submitted to Apple for review, theres a possibility the app could pop up as soon as this Wednesday or the next one (Wednesdays are the day when most apps release in the iOS App Store) unless for some reason it receives special attention from Apple and they decide to set...

    D&D 5E Shield Mastery Feat

    Can't it just as easily be argued that the shove bonus action MUST happen before the actual attack takes place if the player chooses to use it's bonus action? One could say that initiating the attack action TRIGGERS the bonus action as an interrupt before the actual attack resolves based off of...

    Favorite Warlord Moments?

    Kind of surprised your DM let that party come together.

    Deployed Military D&D Game Day! (needs you!)

    I seriously regret not thinking of this when I was still in the Marines... I hope it goes well for you guys :)

    New FRCG Cover - Finally!

    That is easily the worse cover I have ever seen for a D&D book...

    D&D 4E 4E at the Printers!

    The GSL is a lie?

    I was unconsious 20 minutes ago, but I'm ok now..

    If your players are abusing their healing surges, there are ways to take advantage of the situation and make them wish they hadnt. Just be creative :)

    Random Speculation on Psionics

    Someone had just posted about some information released on WotCs website that showed a Psionic Figure with a Mindblade with the abilities of a Defender. Curious... Edit: Thread - http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=221540

    Milwaukee: I am looking for a group

    I live in West Bend and work in Menomonee Falls. (about a half hour, and 10 minutes from Milwaukee respectivly) Myself and a few friends have been discussing starting up a game. Our problem is that there isnt an experienced DM in the lot of us, to be honest. We may also take a peek at 4.0 when...

    The Unstoppable Black Dragon

    I know that we're sure that a Black Dragon still retains his acid breath weapon, but the last I checked, no one knows if a Black Dragon has maintained its aquatic nature. I've been reading alot of posts about escape tunnels to water sources and things of that sort, but what if that doesnt gain...

    Possible Scoop...Tiefling Page

    It's only fluff. Even though a class fits into the "Leader" role in the party, such as the Cleric, it does not mean they are neccessarily the face of the party. Personally I dont understand what the worry is about. Dreaming of leading an army /= being a party leader.
