Interesting! Where do you use this rule? It also allows for more natural ones, if that effects what you're using it for. (8.3% for crits/1s instead of 5%, for folks who don't want to look it up.) Edit: Dammit! I, too, was lured into a thread necro. It feels like it's getting more common?

The more I think about it, the more I think this is the difference. @Zardnaar has written a lot on the over-effectiveness of level 1 spells at high level. It feels related: the reward is too great for the risk in higher tier. Upcast THL being better than Cone of Cold just feels weird. Maybe the...

This is also my experience. To be fair: martials work best with caster supports and CCs; but LRs, advantages vs spells, and things like Globe of Invulnerability nerf casters hard while martials have basically guaranteed advantage to hit and resistances do nothing. Martials are now always...

I like this discussion and I'm happy to be a part of it! Getting tripped up over the exact wording of Suggestion isn't important: it's clear from the description that one legitimate usage is removing an enemy from a combat. Targeting that concentration check, counterspell, and LRs are really...

I think it's easy enough to talk yourself into either interpretation. The night hag's ability says it can turn into a humanoid. Humanoid is a type. So clearly, you cannot choose the wine in front of the paladin. But Shapechange, the spell, which is far more powerful and precise, specifically...

While this thread is getting a little heated, I LOVE the ideas presented here. One of my takeaways: a lot of illusions don't have to move to work. Yes, it's pretty awesome when the gnome mage shows up with two huge orc bodyguards that look really scary, talk, and move around normally, but are...

I don't know what you're talking about, this is my favorite warforged pic so far!!! This is perfect! (Well, except the background.)

I keep coming back to this thread because I'm enjoying these pictures, but also yes :ROFLMAO: And I thought my PCs were bad...

Another example of a skill-tastic Bard to show off the skills section. The Weapons area is also used to track easily-forgotten but important powers for them. On the second page, I marked out where they don't have slots. This means I'll have to reprint each level, so we'll see if I keep that...

Here is an example of the character sheet using an 11th level Oathbreaker Paladin with a houserule species (and subclass and background). Part of my "cheat" is to use this site to generate superscript text, which allows me to fit a lot more stuff in there. Even with smaller default fonts, it's...
