    D&D 5E To much 5th edition content?

    With all due respect here, how on earth is this possible? Like, how often and for how long does your group play, and how quickly did it take for you to finish the hardback adventures such that you've been able to play all of them as they were coming out AND loads of other stuff as well? I'm just...

    D&D General How much dice do you own?

    If it’s true that a pound bag of dice is 100, then I guess I have over 100 which puts me in “collector” territory on this poll, but I don’t really think I have a LOT of dice compared to many people. All the dice I’ve got are: Big pound bag, not the Chessex pound but one of the ones that came...

    D&D 5E Illusory Script

    I was looking at this spell earlier and thinking about how it’s very situational and I don’t think it has ever come up in any game I was in. It seems pretty obviously one of those spells that exists so you can have NPCs cast it to set up an adventure plot point, more than as something the PCs...

    D&D 5E Recreating a character in D&D 5e

    You could just build the character without any damage-dealing cantrips and then he's not doing cantrip damage every round. (I'd do a warlock maybe?) Yeah it's not optimal but if you're playing the head of an animated armor I suspect your players aren't too fussed about things like optimizing...

    Is Forgotten Realms the Default Campaign Setting for 5e?

    I don't fully agree with the earlier overview of how many official adventures are tied to Forgotten Realms. I feel that it overstates it somewhat. Curse of Strahd is set in Ravenloft. It opened up the setting for DMs Guild and the whole adventure takes place there. Saying it's FR based because...

    Unearthed Arcana WotC Removes Latest Unearthed Arcana

    So do we actually know that this was removed because the love domain was controversial or is it more likely to be because it wasn't officially announced and people found the PDF by guessing the URL? I just assumed it was the latter but most comments in this thread seem to think the former.

    It's a Drizzt! "Timeless" - New Drizzt Do'Urden Trilogy by R.A. Salvatore

    I kind of dropped out of the Drizzt books after a certain point and probably won't get this one but if this is the first of more D&D novels in general, I'm pleased. Call me if they get Erin Evans to write more Farideh books...!

    D&D 5E Which abilities can detect a humanoid which is possessed by a ghost?

    Eh? Why would the ghost “show up” on See Invisibility? It’s not invisible or ethereal, it’s possessing the person’s body. I would interpret the disappeared ghost as having no physical form (invisible or otherwise) while it possesses someone.

    D&D 5E Your one best piece of GM/DM advice?

    Study how other DMs do things and take that on to your own games. You can do this through watching actual plays, reading advice, etc., but the best way to do it is to be a player in other people's games. Play and make a note of the things that your DM did or didn't do that you liked. Then try it...
