    D&D 5E DEX-based spear wielding Fighter

    I have seen the episode. I totally agree with the fact that he was far too busy trying to get the Mountain on a guilt trip. Call it good storytelling, good scriptwriting after that. And as far as D&D is concerned, I also totally agree that Oberyn would have had Wisdom for a dump stat. But he...

I don't care how you want to justify your Drow having come to Athas, even if she is a level 18 wizard, level 20 sorceress, level 14 bard, level 2 fighter multiclass character. Neither would I allow a...
