    D&D (2024) 13 Attacks a Round the Most You Can Get?

    If attacks from creatures you control count (it probably shouldn't), then wraithmaxing is a strategy: Somehow get True Polymorph'd into an Atropal. Use its Summon Wraith ability every round it is available until you have as many wraiths as desired. Command your wraith army/horde/swarm to attack.

    D&D (2024) 13 Attacks a Round the Most You Can Get?

    If one cares for multiclassing: Warlock 1 (or Pact of the Tome via Eldritch Adept if your DM isn't a certain way about its wording) / Fighter 2 / Valor Bard 14+. You'll want Eldritch Blast from (Warlock / Pact of the Tome), Nick + Action Surge from Fighter, and Warcaster. Normal Attack...

    D&D (2024) Testing against the Gold Dragon

    It's obvious from the quote who they're asking. Speaking of the whole Level 20 Monk v Ancient Gold thing, I can see it being possible for the former to take on the latter, but easily feels beyond a stretch without metagaming or really generous assumptions.

    D&D 5E Can you hear the audible version of the Alarm spell if you are more than 60 feet away?

    It absolutely can be heard - by anyone capable of hearing it - within 60 ft of the selected area. I leave whether it's audible beyond that to the will of the caster.

    D&D (2024) Check Out The New Monster Manual’s Ancient Gold Dragon

    The post just before theirs, from context.

    D&D General Muscular Neutrality (thought experiment)

    Hmm... The immediate thing that comes to mind would be some sort of cosmic need for stress - or at least the kind of advancement that can come from overcoming stress. The muscular neutral individual attempts to regulate stress so that there's enough to ensure continued advancement/growth but...

    D&D (2024) Should Bounded Accuracy apply to skill checks? Thoughts on an old Alexandrian article

    Bounded Accuracy doesn't care about what numbers the PCs have or can get. Bounded Accuracy never cared about what numbers the PCs have or can get. The developers explicitly state this in their explanation of what Bounded Accuracy is. By definition, things like Bardic Inspiration, Expertise...

    D&D (2024) Is Friends + Beguiling Twist OP?

    I wouldn't call it OP, but it technically works (except the DMG apparently have a couple of rules/guidance that can block it).

    D&D (2024) Rules Clarification: Epic Boon at 19th Class Level or Total Character Level?

    Because the multiclassing section introduced a rule that would otherwise mean a multiclassed character's cantrips scaled by class level, which would be inconsistent with a nonmulticlassed character's cantrip scaling.

    D&D (2024) Rules Clarification: Epic Boon at 19th Class Level or Total Character Level?

    It's not really all that complex. 1. The feats section explicitly tells you that you can pick feats from any category if categories aren't specified. 2. The Ability Score Improvement feature doesn't specify a category, thus you can pick from any category (Origin, General, Fighting Style, Epic...

    D&D (2024) +Caster Single Target Damage+

    Friendly reminder that Eldritch Adept exists (if using 2014 stuff) and Pact of the Tome is a valid Eldritch Invocation now. Reasonably arguable to require a level in Warlock (if "they function as Warlock spells for you" means you need to be able to cast as a Warlock), but I've happily given up...

    D&D (2024) Double metamagic

    Currently, the Combining Game Effects rule from the DMG would prevent this from doing anything if nothing else does, but who knows if that rule will make it to the new DMG?

    D&D (2024) Scribing and Using Scrolls

    Maybe. Double check the spells you have to confirm whether they are prepared or just known/castable. Assuming that at least one of those is actually prepared, then you've indeed missed nothing - the spell scroll rules do (as they did in 5e14) result in characters being able to scribe scrolls...

    D&D General Multiclassing Shouldn't be Treated as the Default

    The real problem here isn't with the synergistic effect, but with how bad both hypothetical classes are. If a single feature from one class added to another class makes said other class so much better than either class on their own to the point that it's a problem, your classes are too weak.

    D&D General Golems With Ranged Attacks?

    Magen seem like they'd be good here, especially the Galvan Magen, which has a 60 ft x 5ft recharge nonmagical lightning AoE and flight.
