Once again, its not my opinion that makes it crap. If I had never read the 4e manual of planes it would still be crap. My opinion has nothing to do with it. The 5e rules as presented in the players handbook (you know the rule book? right? you seen it?) has reverted away from the 4e. So much for...

Im pretty sure 5e has gone back to the cosmos of the past, at least according to the players handbook, but it did add some of the elements from 4e into it. A revised Look! We still have the Feywild I see they have kept the name elemental chaos but changed its cosmetology. The wheel is back and...

isnt that the 4e SCRAP? Because that isnt anything like the planes as I learned them

When you score a critical hit, you get to roll extra dice for the attack's damage against the target. Roll all of the attack's damage dice twice and add them together *"Until the spell ends, you deal an extra 1d6 necrotic damage to the target whenever you hit it with an attack." The spell Hex...

Looking for clarification or impute on the following: If 2 players have a monster flanked as per the flanking rules in the DMG, and a third player, in this case a halfing, uses 10 feet of his move to engage the monster. Can he momentarily occupy the same square as one of the 2 flanking players...

Where I agree with you that Clerics, sorcerers, warlocks, druids, eldritch knights or bards wont have spell books, but that is due to the fact they just don't have spell books anyway. The Necro however is a wizard, we are in his lair, he died to 2 arrows and a sleep spell. That guy should have...

I play a war cleric, he is 6th level now and I have no problem standing in the front lines. I originally used shield master but swapped to heavy armor master for that 3 points of Damage reduction. I would agree that spirit guardians is defining spell, There have been several times that I just...

My 5th level cleric cast inflict wounds, rolled a 20 and caused 87 points of damage.

I am playing a Warlock with Pact of the Tome, I picked this so that I could add the utility ritual spells it offers to my spell book as i come across them. but my DM is a hard ass and there are never any spellbooks on casters we kill, there are never any scrolls, and my whole pact has be reduced...

I don't know why you would add the damage after the save, I haven't seen anything that would support that. I really think it all goes back to the Spell Damage Roll, where you take the damage for the spell and to it any modifies and then apply that damage to the target. I mean that is how...

I figured if anybody would pick pick out the tone humor I was going for you would! I almost added Drop the Mic to the end but that would have contradicted the snarkyness 1) The ability rule state you can add your Intelligence modifier to the damage roll of any evocation spell you cast. 2)...

Thats a great use for the Owl! Fly in "help" Fly out

Not to split hairs but as long as we are talking about RAW and RAI, the exact RAW implies (flat out says) you are mistaken in your views. The point I think your missing can be found on page 196 of the PHB. Under Damage Rolls: Each weapon, spell, and harmful monster ability specifies the damage...

Yes you stop hiding when the enemy can see you... you stop hiding when you A) unhide B) have your stealth check roll beaten by a passive or active perception roll. Thats it. there is no wiggle room. You can give the perception roll advantage if you feel it warrants it. But if you are hidden...

No once you are hidden you are hidden until you unhide or somebody spots you with a passive or active perception roll. I was sneaking up to scare a girl at work, I spent 20 minuets creeping up on her in her office when I got close somebody came in to ask her a question and I just stood very...
