    D&D (2024) December 1st UA Spell changes

    It might be we don't mind because in real life we (or at least many of us) are not worried about divine prayers. In a world of magic, it might be more concerning, especially if the person in front of you looks like they might have the means or contacts to have someone capable of casting a...

    WotC Shadow of the Dragon Queen Preorder Report

    I just received an e-mail with the following - "Thank you for purchasing from Wizards of the Coast. Your order has finished processing and is now being shipped!" There was also a UPS tracking link which I clicked. All I got was that the label was created and that the delivery date will be...

    D&D 5E Counterspell nerfed!

    This is exactly how I run it. This way it is not a semi-automatic void of NPC's spells when it is cost effective (cost of a reaction and spell slot). If they fail their Arcana check they have a tough choice to make and if they make their arcana check and decide not to counterspell. it still...

    D&D 5E What's the deal with Small creatures and weapons?

    Slight correction - small creatures can use heavy weapons with disadvantage.

    D&D 5E Flatfooted? Or: Advantage on Surprise?

    I'd like to see thoughts on this too - I was thinking of the case where the assassion suprises their victim (goes in suprise round before they act) and then has a higher initiave so it goes first in the first round (getting to act before victim again)

    D&D 5E Just wrapped up four consecutive days of D&D 5th.

    I agree. Sometimes things do not play out at the table like we think they will in our head. Looks like I'll be playing the starter set adventure this week myself and can't wait.

    It's listed under companions and familiars in the compendium.

    Amazon listing for the Book of Vile Darkness

    Methinks if these sold as well as some think, that they would gladly continue churning out more and more of these books.

    The vampire starts with just 2 healing surges

    For those who have a copy of the book and have read it in it's entirety and have given it more than 5 minutes thought, sure it's not quite "out of hand." I'm referring in general terms to the people who say it's not workable based on less than that. Even with the above, personally, I still...

    The vampire starts with just 2 healing surges

    How about teamwork. There are things about the vampire (without seeing the book yet) that make it difficult in certain cases and things that help compensate in others and are boons in even other cases. How about teaming up a vampire with a high-con warlock. They can be some kind of husband and...

    Eladrin Knight is up on DDI

    It was actually up yesterday (according to the date on the home page). So it's actually in the second column. I missed it too until I saw this thread. Here's the link - Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Sword Guard of Astrazalian)

    DDI January Content Calendar "Online"

    Can you please explain this cause I think I've missed this in translation. I pick up a monthly magazine at the newsstand and it has x articles. All needed to be completed in time to get it compiled and sent to the printer to meet their distribution deadline. I have a limited to no way of knowing...

    Shuriken vs. Hand Crossbow: What's the Point of Shuriken?

    Also, I believe versatile Duelist would not allow your sneak attack on M/RBAs. Which, with the new rules on dealing sneak attack damage once per turn, drops it another notch.
