I voted 7 (purely from a player's perspective rather than a DM's) because 7.5 wasn't an option. It would have been an 8 or even 9 if they hadn't gone totally backward on some areas of design. Rangers are so clunky with bonus actions that the PHB Beast Master doesn't even work properly (not to...

Voted Dragonborn, Goliath, and Human. I really like Dragonborn from a coolness perspective, but the breath weapon only really works on high con martials (Fighter for me, since I hate dumping Int and therefore play 14 Con Barbarians). Goliath and Human are both flexible without relying on innate...

100% this! Luckily, at least in the online AL communities I'm active in, this is a very common attitude. In fact, I can't remember the last time I ran into complaints about playing with an inexperienced DM, let alone played with someone who was complaining rather than trying to help. Honestly...

Wow, I went halfway through the first page and liked a couple posts before thinking to glance at the date of posting. Oops!

I still play D&D for a couple reasons. The major one is I like Organized Play for the consistent rules and the ability to play the same characters with different DMs, and I feel like I have a choice between Adventurer's League and Pathfinder Society for that. Of the 2, Adventurer's League lets...

I actually have a build centered around this, using the Spear of Backbiting from Tomb of Horrors (it's an Adventurers League character, so I have more access to magic items compared to a home game). He's a Tortle Ancients Paladin 15/Warlock 1, although the Tortle part isn't necessary for the...

Seems to be fixed.

Any update on this? It's a pretty huge problem for anyone using 2FA.

I just had to use a backup code to log in, because ever since the update I haven't received any emails from ENWorld. I was also supposed to get an email saying I used a backup code, but didn't receive that either. Once I was in I checked my email address, but that is still correct.

The Shillelagh (Club) idea is something I may have to try at some point, just to see how practical it is. The only other way I know of to dual wield with a Charisma based bladelock is to be a Hexblade, since Hex Warrior and Pact of the Blade should be able to be put on 2 different weapons. I...

I've been playing with the 2024 rules in Adventurer's League, which just started requiring rather than encouraging them a few days ago. So far there are more things I like than dislike, but some of the background rulings annoy me (more of an AL thing than a 2024 thing though, like feats from old...

I didn't know how to vote, because my answer is yes under 1 very specific circumstance. I would pretty much only play an open hand monk in this type of campaign. One thing I just can't get past is that the only available feat is Grappler, a feat so weak that you can do the same thing but better...

https://www.enworld.org/threads/describe-your-last-rpg-session-in-5-words.679952/post-9143107 Playing an Adventurer's League dungeoncraft adventure called SJ-DC-VMT-01 Waterdeep: Statue Heist. Very silly adventure, lots of fun. Four of the walking statues were turned into spelljamming ships and...

Walking statues stolen. Was goldfish???

There's no option for "I love fudge as a dessert but don't fudge in other ways", despite having the option for not liking fudge as a dessert, so I voted other. ;)
