    D&D General D&D 3.5 - splatbook power creep or no?

    The skill points and expanded skill lists of those classes was never a pro for me. I had already both house ruled the Fighter's skill points and modified the class skill list using some of the Unearthed Arcana class variants as examples (I did this for all of the 2+int PHB classes. I am glad...

    D&D General D&D 3.5 - splatbook power creep or no?

    Yeah, I followed a similar approach. I used the core 3.0 books* + select UA material + select material from other specific 3.0 and 3.5 WOTC products + select material from various third parties (including some new classes). * I used the DMG tailored spell variant for clerics and also removed...

    D&D General The 5e Ninja, would it be a class or a subclass?

    Over the past week, I just watched the Octagon plus a handful of Cannon 80's Ninja films for the first time. Unarmed striking techniques played a role in those movies along with the Ninja weapons, acrobatics, stealth, and, often, the fun Ninja "toys" (e.g. smoke bombs, shuko and ashiko for...

    D&D General The 5e Ninja, would it be a class or a subclass?

    As someone that would use a different system for Naruto and some other specific anime inspired ninja, I, personally, would go with one of the following for D&D: 1. Rogue (Assassin) or a Light Armored Fighter variant. Add a Ninja background, trade armor proficiency for the monk's unarmored...

    D&D 3.x I miss 3.5 edition

    I still remember Andy Collins penning a Dragon article In which he tells DMs to determine which PrCs are appropriate for their campaign and helping them to make that determination. Then, during 3.5 or very late 3.0, he penned another article for his Sibling Rivalry web column in which he...

    D&D 5E (2024) Steel & Skill: The Complete Fighter's Field Guide

    Some of my favorite 5e supplements were Jacob Driscoll's free conversions of the 2e Complete Fighter's Handbook, Complete Priest's Handbook and Complete Thief's Handbook which he shared here on ENWorld. I felt his conversions were better done than the originals, because 2e lacked a system of...

    D&D General Do you use D&D style list of gods in your games?

    Yes. However, I think that I have a few differences than standard D&D (or how many play/run it). 1, Several of the deities are dual-natured with beneficial and destructive aspects. For example, the sun deity is associated with life, but also drought and wildfires while the goddess of healing...
