D&D 5E What play after Dragon Heist (no DotMM)

[delph]

Hi, we are playing Dragon Heist and we love this game and our characters. But what play after? Our GM describe us some things about DotMM and everyone answer "that's nothing we want play"

Behind us are:
ToA
CoS

 

[Tales and Chronicles]

Tell your Gm to have the dragon cult take interest in the vast treasure you just recovered. Then jump to the Castle Nerytar portion of Hoard of the Dragon Queen and follow all the way to Rise of Tiamat.

CoS, ToA or DiA, all requiring a little adaptation.

ToA was last campaign and we don't want have "huge dungeon to slash" again.
CoS was before ToA and yeah it was great.

what's DiA?

And it can be "not-official" but good campaigns.

Descent into Avernus. Same excellence then the last two.

Stormking's Thunder also has nice entry points at 5th level and can easily be entered from Waterdeep in some way.

Running a post-Dragon Heist game now, using the Adventurer's League "Umbral Aristocracy" trilogy.

You sound like a player so I won't spoil it, but it's working well for me. I'm going to find it pretty easy to weave in one of the villains i didn't use earlier.

Sort of depends on your party makeup and what the DM wishes to run. My group will be going into Decent into Avernus (albeit with a heavily altered beginning) post Dragon Heist, but that is mostly due to them all creating a party full of characters with backstories heavily influenced by outsiders. I've considered doing Curse of Strahd as a go-between in a condensed form because one of them basically rolled Trevor Belmont as a character, but two of my players literally just did that module in it's entirety like a year ago, so I'll probably do something inspired by it without a whole sidetrip to Barovia for like 8 (real world) months.

I'll put a plug in for Curse of Strahd if your group is itching for gothic horror, but in no way should your DM run it as written. It, like most, needs work, and if done right, can be awesome. If your DM is veteran and has a solid amount of time to convert or convince DMs to turn over conversion notes, the old 3rd edition Adventure Paths in Dungeon Magazine were epic (e.g. Savage Tide, Age of Worms)
