    Level Up (A5E) No explanation for what a Reaction is in the AG

    Well, they can't include in LU what's not in SRD if it's specific to WoTC material, like Mind Flayers etc. Rules are not included in this kind of reasoning AFAIK.

    Level Up (A5E) No explanation for what a Reaction is in the AG

    Well it could simply state that there may be some situations occurring outside of your turn where you can react. And it could clarify how it's supposed to work (trigger, etc). It could also make the example of the attack of opportunity

    Level Up (A5E) No explanation for what a Reaction is in the AG

    Exactly. I was expecting to find loose definitions of actions/bonus actions/reactions somewhere in the combat chapter. I don't really agree, as standard stuff like advantage/disadvantage is explained, as well as how to make attacks, saves, ability checks etc. Although the assumption that most...

    Level Up (A5E) No explanation for what a Reaction is in the AG

    That's where I looked and where it's mentioned, but there's no actual definition of a reaction. I'm not confused about reaction per se, but I'm quite surprised they're not actually defined anywhere in the book, although there's plenty of spells and combat maneuvers that require a reaction. I...

    Level Up (A5E) No explanation for what a Reaction is in the AG

    We're about to start a new campaign using LU, there is one new player and they're all new to LU. One of them started asking some questions about reactions, and I realized that "what a reaction is" is never mentioned in the AG (or at least I spectacularly failed at searching). Same for the SRD on...

    Level Up (A5E) What are your common house rules?

    I think it could be useful to have polls on some aspects of the game where you have doubts. Personally, I think a significant fraction of groups kinda ditch the material/somatic components shenanigans with having a free hand/no shield, etc. I'm definitely ignoring everything material...

    SO. MANY. GOODIES. After you unveiled page 52 from the previous request, would you please show page 102?

    GOD RULES: Player's Guide (5e) Kickstarter Pre-Launch Page

    Awesome! I mean, demi-liches must be aspiring to something, right? I guess there'll be Uber-liches and Meta-liches! Exactly that one (two, actually, there's one mostly for DMs)! It makes sense for you not wanting to be influenced by it, but I really enjoyed those products! I suggest you give it...

    GOD RULES: Player's Guide (5e) Kickstarter Pre-Launch Page

    How has all this go(o)dness eluded me so far?! And on top of it from @Upper_Krust ?! I remember devouring your CR deconstructions and immortals level scaling way back from 3.5 era ("I was there, 3000 years ago..."), so this is an insta-back for me! Btw, just out of curiosity: a few years ago I...

    Level Up Gateway Level Up Gateway April Dev Update (and OPEN ALPHA!)

    Hey @Morrus I was fiddling a bit with the gateway and it's really great! I have a couple of questions regarding expertise dice: if a character has expertise dice on a skill due to a specialization, is there a way to add it automatically to a roll by clicking somewhere? Or should I just roll the...

    Level Up (A5E) Wild shaped Druid: do you lose all Heritage benefits, or only physical ones?

    I'd say that the verb "to utilize" implies some kind of action, not something that happens passively. If that's correct, one cannot utilize features like Dragon's Breath, but stuff known, bonuses to rolls etc are ok. Happy to be corrected.

    Level Up (A5E) Adept Question

    This is mostly a matter of how you envision the class and how it interacts with the world. I personally don't see the monk/adept as a brute who takes a punch on the teeth and shows a bleeding grin afterwards, which is how I (partially) imagine large hit dice. I see the monk/adept more as an...

    3PP Release New 3PP release: Sinuous Sentinels!

    @Timespike i'm very curious about the herald/wizard synergy feat chain! Will it appear in the upcoming multiclasser manual too?

    Level Up (A5E) Imbue Weapon reflex and natural weapons

    From the description you posted it seems the lizardfolk could only throw the denture once per round, as a bonus action will be needed for it to return to its mouth. Hilarious idea though!
