    D&D General How Do I Help Mentor a GM Making Rookie Mistakes?

    Wow, your issues are a lot worse than mine. My 13 year old daughter decided she wanted to try her hand at DMing. I created 2 characters and she created a third (yes, I know we’re breaking the unwritten rules of “don’t play more than one character” and “the DM shouldn’t play a character” but...

    Critical Role's The Mighty Nein Reveals First Look, Season 1 to Air on November 19th

    It also helps that we, the viewers, got to watch the entire campaign. Whereas, with Vox Machina, the story starts off En Media Res entering Kraghammer since it picks up from their home game

    D&D General Weapon Mastery - Yea or Nay?

    I finally got around to playing with the 2024 rules last weekend. My daughter was DMing and I was playing a Barbarian and a Rogue. Our combats were a 50/50 split between me completely forgetting to use Weapon Masteries and me remembering to use them, and then thinking, “wow, that was a tad bit...

    D&D General Blessing of the Lone Champion: what's the best pick for a solo adventurer?

    If your DM allows the Swashbuckler subclass for the Rogue, that seems like it could be a lot of fun. Sneaking around all over the place, with Inspiration rerolls when you need them. When you get into combat you have THP for survivability, and no need for an ally nearby to get your sneak...

    D&D General Do THIS, WotC!

    The obvious choice for me would be: Reprint the 3.5 Expanded Psionics Handbook, updated for 5e (or 5.5e, if you will).

    I was going to suggest Ogre Battle or The Fairy Feller’s Master-Stroke, but your suggestion tops those.

    D&D 5E (2024) Psionics: What Do You Want?

    At the risk of derailing this thread, I feel like the Exhaustion mechanic would be better with the following changes: A) Levels 1-5 - each level of Exhaustion requires a Short Rest to recover from. A Long Rest clears all levels of Exhaustion. B) Level 6 - rather than death, instead causes the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Psionics: What Do You Want?

    In theory, that sounds like a perfectly acceptable idea. In practice, that’s what made so many people dislike the 2014 Berserker’s Frenzy mechanic.

    D&D 5E (2024) The 7 5.5e FRPG Subclasses Survived

    Oh that’s right. It’s been so long that I completely forgot about them. Maybe they took those 8 and pared them down to 7.

    D&D 5E (2024) Is it possible to balance the six abilities?

    Interesting chart! I feel like I would have done the mental abilities differently: Power = Intelligence Precision = Wisdom Which I suppose would leave Endurance = Charisma by process of elimination, although I’m still working through that one in my noggin.
