    D&D 5E Is every Official Adventure Going to be about Saving the World?

    Why would you want your heroes doing anything LESS than saving the world? An RPG where you run a bakery would get rather boring.

    D&D 5E Character play vs Player play

    We wouldn't want our rumors to be inaccurate. :p

    D&D 5E Iconic low level monsters

    Kobolds! Kobolds, Kobolds, Kobolds, Kobolds. Barbarian Kobolds with tiny great axes that use Pack Tactics for Advantage and pose a decent threat to a 3rd level adventurer. ... Kobolds.

    D&D 5E Character play vs Player play

    I haven't really been following this thread since page 20. I'm just going to leave this here tho

    D&D 5E Sorcerer spell selection

    Pretty sure Wizards get Enhance Ability.

    D&D 5E Sorcerer spell selection

    The main point here I think is it use to be the "Wizard/Sorcerer List" and now they've been separated. Clearly by intent, the sorc has a more limited selection. If you believe that selection is enough then kudos. Some don't. 4e had Wizards getting Ritual Casting at 1st level, while Sorcs had...

    D&D 5E DMs: How Do You Handle Metagaming?

    As the player who usually offers the optimal solution, let me just say, it's done for expedience sake. There are some players who just don't want to do the combat. Or they literally ONLY want to roll, not decide. I offer them choices so they can choose quicker, not because I want the optimal...

    D&D 5E DMs: How Do You Handle Metagaming?

    The roll isn't to miss any of the enemies with a fireball, it's to miss allies. Every enemy will (or should, for reasons you mention) still be hit. It's a matter of if he judged his aim properly enough that the fireball ends just passed the fighter's nose, rather than enveloping his head.

    D&D 5E I Am SO Over The "Rootless Vagabond" Archetype

    This party would work out fine with some small nudges in the right direction. After all, the thing to remember is at some level every player volunteered to sit down and play this game right? So you have a couple dark and brooding shadowy figures in your party. You need to give them an outlet...

    D&D 5E Stand um provokes opportunity attack?

    No OA. You have not left the threatened area of anyone. In fact, you have not even left the square you started in.

    D&D 5E DMs: How Do You Handle Metagaming?

    No adventurer, first level or otherwise, is going to soil himself in the presence of danger. They are heroes after all. In simplest terms, the game flows much better if the heroes know how to defeat the bad guys. Weather that's meta knowledge or in game knowledge is somewhat immaterial. You...

    D&D 5E I Am SO Over The "Rootless Vagabond" Archetype

    I take it you will be watching the Librarians on TNT when it debuts then. :LOL:

    D&D 5E I Am SO Over The "Rootless Vagabond" Archetype

    I like well developed characters, and character histories as a DM. The Background feature of character creation helps with this I feel. The "roll dice kill things" crowd get a tangible trade off in stats for completing their character background assignment. They at least have SOME concept of...
