Well, I kept the AC of the images the same as the caster's for simplicity, but I think it shouldn't be far off. We could argue what AC would make sense though: adding Dex modifier brings it closer to the caster's AC, the differences would mostly be due to equipment and eventually other spells...

These are all interesting takes on Mirror Images, a spell I absolutely loved in the previous editions and that in 5e was kinda ruined, like so many others. Personally I'd try to keep the spirit of the spell as close to 2E or 3E as possible, so something like "You create 3 illusory duplicates of...

I think the point was to use more maneuvers/feats with thrown weapons within 10ft, because as things are now there's not really many possibilities

Looks solid to me

That is a cool idea, but they don't have any ATM.

I'm wondering about the necessity of aoos with a ranged weapon. With ranged weapons you can always attack the enemy as long as you have line of sight. Aoos were introduced as a way to make disengaging from melee a costly and/or risky business. There are a few maneuvers/feats that allow to make...

It's a good idea. My main point with this post was to figure out RAW and its gaps/flaws. One of my players (but not the player of the character of this thread) is a metallurgy engineer and researcher. I'll ask him for some suggestions on what could provide some verisimilitude in a fantasy...

I don't agree with this. By collecting the above info, the forge seems to be required to do a repair for heavier metals: the table has a column named "Repairability". Maintenance thus appears to be for minor things (greasing, fixing small dents, repairing latches etc) and wouldn't require a...

Ok, not gonna happen, esp in a jungle

That's a good point, only the strongest metals require a forge (from steel onwards). From what I can gather in all this, there's a significant difference between a maintanance roll and a repair one. The first is quite ordinary and only requires basic tools, the second may need more...

Ok, but this doesn't really answer my question. If they're part of smith tools (from the description I'm not sure, and IMO should asolutely count as a bulky item at the very least), are they mentioned separately?

One of my players found a broken armor that he'd like to repair (a splint mail) He has proficiency with smithing tools and access to them, but we're not sure RAW if that's enough or not. If I check the table for the armors or materials, I see that repairing it is a DC 15 check, with an experise...

IMO the main upside of adding a school to your spell list is extensibility: if a new supplement comes out with a spell from that school, you can start casting it right away (unless the DM prohibits it for a very good reason). Having 2 specific spells prepared gives more moment to moment...

Yep, same issue.

I'm having issues logging in the LU Gateway. As soon as I click the login button, the page kinda freezes and nothing happens (it doesn't even ask for user name or password). This is across 2 different systems, OS and browsers. Anybody else having similar issues?
