    D&D (2024) Illusion Magic in 2024

    If the answer to 1 is yes, there are other questions that arise: can it do damage? does the attack work with disadvantage? etc. Make your own choices, and have fun at your table.

    Kobold Stew understands just fine, but thank you for your concern. :D

    D&D (2024) Psion Class: Green/Yellow/Red?

    I believe they have said nothing EDIT: and even if they had set a threshold (such as applying the 70% to Greens-and-yellows), they are under no actual obligation to follow that. The benefits of the survey are primarily unidirectional, from the fan base to the company: we give them data, and we...

    This is, exactly, the problem. :D

    Sure. And if you want to interact with a second object, that takes an action. I think I know whyt this rule exists, and it has nothing to do with illusions. Fair enough - I should have said something like the challenge presented by a Wall of Force is overcome. . All this is true.

    You don't like the Study action. I get that. I'm not sure I do either, but they've foregrounded it in the spell descriptions repeatedly. It appears you believe that it is included to cover edge-cases and certain out-of-combat uses. That's not the way I see the rules written elsewhere, but that's...

    It all just feels so flat. I read the UA, and then the 2017 Mystic they offered us and there's simply no comparison: they had something solid and creative and different 8 years ago. Now we have another spellcaster.

    It's okay, we'll need torches anyways. Tommi thinks he remembers something about burning trolls from the stories he's read.

    Because you quoted it. This sounds to me like you are being sarcastic. I want rules that work at the table, yes. And, yes, I offered a proposal that cites the PHB. It's not a coincidence that the proposal follows from the passages cited. Your interpretation, as you've explained it, does not...

    Thanks for this. I think we both recognize the same issue. That's precisely not what the passage quoted says. If this is correct, then much more remains unclear for what happens with illusions in combat than the procedure I suggested. You've identified some of the issues here, but there are...

    Why would you assume that I wrote the tl/dr before the rest of the post? Perhaps there lies the confusion. In the post, I present the reasoning that brings me to the conclusion that I summarized . Not something that I "want", but what the PHB says. There's a section in the OP called...

    D&D (2024) Illusion Magic in 2024

    So I read your initial post, pre-edit, before you added the personal attack. I honestly thought your post was meant as a joke. It seems you are serious, though, and so let me ask: What is the result that you think I want? And where do you think I have misread the PHB? I may have follow-up...

    "Happy to check it out," says Tommi, offering to run ahead with anyone else interested.
