Haven't got my hands on Volo yet, but there have been Easter Eggs aplenty sprinkled throughout the Core Three, i.e Battlerager, Warlord, Ravenloft... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Roger that. Thanks, friends!

Sure this has been answered on another thread/Tweet/errata etc, so sorry if this is redundant but do you use your overall level or caster level to determine damage, i.e. Ray of Frost increases to 2d8 @ 5th level: can my level 4 Ftr MC into Wiz @ level 5 and still do 2d8?

I'll agree that the Fireball could be a bit unfair, and as a DM I'd prob nerf it (a bit), but you play with Fire, yadda yadda yadda

My group was doing a 2-3 week fill-in adventure which ended spectacularly with our Wild Mage casting Fireball in the hull of a ship at sea. As we slowly sank to the ocean floor, "faint, ethereal music played" (97-98). We all heard "Taps", crunched up our Character Sheets, and started rolling new...

If you haven't seen it yet, the Magic: TG Zendikar PDF has Vampire and Goblin PC's available

I'm personally gunna wait and see what they give us before I digitally grumble and moan. "More Feats!" could include Racial Feats, Class-specific Feats, Background-specific Feats, etc., not simply OP'ed splat, as you kids say. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, I think that actually means your players care more about PC design than simply taking the best min/max option. If you just want to do more Damage, then please, take all you ASI's. If you want to craft a truly unique PC, then indulge in the Feats.

I'm still very confused by the argument of Feats vs ASI's. It's so simple: take the easy route to min/maxing or get creative and add a level of depth to your PC design. Why all the hiccups, y'all?!

It would seem to me, based on the message threads I've read, that the 70% asking for more Feats don't post here on ENWorld very often...

Pretty sure I just found the 5E Warlord: PHB, p51, Paragraph 2. --Storm Sorcerer was hinted at PHB, p99, Paragraph 2. The signs are out there, people!!

In regards to an expanded Weapon/Armor list, imagine that each entry is simply the default for that type weapon/armor. For example, under Shields we might find: Buckler and Full-Shield. Under Dagger we might find Stiletto, Dirk, and Sai. Now I know they recommend reflavoring the Weapon List to...

Really for me, all of this was borne of something I think Mearls or Crawford (maybe Perkins) said a while back about the PHB being filled with "hints" as to material in the works, i.e. the Ravenloft example in the Intro Chapter and the now-obvious reference to the Battlerager in the Barbarian...

Had a thought: what are the odds our next "core" book is AD&D? Introduce a bunch of "optional" variants such as Race/Class prereq's, expanded Spell List and Equipment, fully fleshed-out Grid rules, Kits, Psionics, etc. It seems like the natural progression of 5th-as-cousin-of-2nd Ed...

Another easy method is to use dice as counters. Arrows come in 20, javelins 4 (typically), etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
