Yeah the problem is that Indomitable was kind of... situational before. If you flubbed a good Fighter save like STR then sure, you could roll it again and probably succede. But if you're targeted at a save you're already bad at, then rolling again probably won't help you that much. Especially...

Okay but is it really better than the 4E Weapon Master? Because that remains the gold standard of Fighters IMO.

Wait why? Indomitable is awesome now.

I do find it a bit odd that dragons being color coded is considered cheesy considering it happens along familial lines. I wouldn't expect a pair of Clydesdale horses to produce a little pony.

Sister species to the every friendly Kind Flayer.

Honestly my favorite 'PC Wizard' statblock is the Legendary Archmage from Monster Manual Expanded 3. I think it's a good compromise between usability (It has a post-MPMM style spell list) and not having completely arbitrary At-Will powers.

Honestly even if torches are seldom used I've never had trouble making darkness matter in my 5E Game... unless there was a Twilight Cleric in the party.

Yeah I would probably just adopt a version of my Spelljammer ship rules. Slow the turns down so that they take place over several minutes to account for how slow aquatic ships are by comparison.

I'm not sure why the latter part couldn't work, the pirate campaign, even in 5E.

Max level fighters saving on a 2 across the board in RC was nuts. You got a 95% chance of success. Even the 4E Fighter ain't that tough.

But why tho? This is where you're losing me. Mechanical consistency is useful, but not at the expense of playability. Representing an NPC the same way as you would a PC of the same level leads to multi-page statistics full of mostly-useless information that isn't going to even be relevant when...

I only get this reference because I have been watching Daddy Rolled a 1.

What they're saying sounds sensible enough but I'm always gonna be skeptical until I see results.

Armpit Fiend Eldritch Qanon Melf's Minute Mediators Pass Without Face Tenser's Fleeing Disk (it runs from you after you summon it)

I don't even know how to respond to this. We have rules so that the game is 'fair' (for whatever difficulty the players and DM agree to) and it's not just a playground game of 'nuh-uh, my monster is totally immune to your spell!' You think the rules should reflect the fiction? Sure, I agree to...
