    Level Up (A5E) A question about Stances and Herald's manouvers

    I love A5E and I enjoy leveling up as more mechanics open up, and diversity is my favorite thing in D&D. My question is that I didn't understand if stances require an exertion point, and the second question, can a Herald spend hit die to get exertion points? since he doesn't really have a pool...

    Level Up (A5E) DragonCult Culture question

    The wording in this trait is a bit unclear: Dragon cultists are often blessed with power from the object of their devotion so that they may spread their dragon’s word or further its plans. As a bonus action, you can cause draconic power to course around you in a draconic umbra. This draconic...

    bladesinger entering god mode

    So my party achieved level 11... we started as a druid, a bladesinger and an assassin. at first my role as a melee was essential with no one at the front line. in time, the party grew with a war cleric, a paladin, barbarian and ranger. which depleted my role as a tank. which I'm fine with... but...

I think 6 in vengeance, 1 in hexblade and 2 in sorcerer. but then no quickened. but if I remove hex I'm very MAD. 5 in paladin won't let me one of the best features of the paladin. s&b? or GWM? hexblade 3? and variant human...

    so I'm playing a bladesinger and I really like it. but we all know about the problems with the class' offensiveness. and our DM allows us to change our characters now that Xanathar is out. the thing is that I play the face of the party a lot, but it's hard with 8 in CHA. So I wondered whether...

    D&D 5E storm sphere vs Evards black tentacles?

    one is lighter damage with great control but immobile, and once they're out of it it's almost useless. the other has better range and damage but almost no control what so ever. the sphere is thematically awesome but seems like a level 4 flaming sphere. while the tentacles are useless once...

    D&D 5E is stealth an action?

    last session, we had an encounter and the monster left the hall to another room. I tried stealting there and the DM said that attempting stealth is an action, otherwise it negates the rouge bonus action benefit. I claimed that hiding is an action, but moving stealthy just slows the pace. I know...
