As others said, this is someone picking up and running with RFCs talking points to make clickbait. And then others piling on. When only 1 division of your company (WotC) is making money, covering the losses of the rest of your business, you don't sell it off (or part of it off).

Absolutely false. D&D is still making money, you can see that from the investor reports. The local stores here are still selling the D&D core books. And the rest of the books are selling as well. Radiant Citadel is good, as is Keys from the Golden Vault and Phandelver and Below. Spellhammer and...

Correct, Larian is a private company, but Tencent does have a 30% stake in Larian.

I can see this as a rather touchy subject. And while I don't object to the story line itself, I don't like the idea of it being forced upon the character/player. And in general, that doesn't sit well with me. I don't want to give out too much of my personal life, but I will say that I am...

Take a piece of paper and write out a chart, something like: Character name / class(es)/level/ AC / HP / attacks / damage / spells / other notes Then compare those numbers to the encounters you'll be putting them up against. For easy encounters- look for something that it takes players say a 3...

Someone pointed out to me on the other thread that the 3.5 core reprints came out with updated errata in 2012. I am trying to find a copy to see if immediate /swift actions are in there, because those rules would be more upto date than the CR.

Just for completeness: I disagree with the DMs reasoning (but, honestly, it is his game and what he says goes. I think it bad form for players to argue things past a certain point), but I feel there is a point there, which I made on the other thread. That is, when do actions reset? Most of...

Just replying on both threads: That is incorrect, here is the text on true strike: You gain temporary, intuitive insight into the immediate future during your next attack. Your next single attack roll (if it is made before the end of the next round) gains a +20 insight bonus. Additionally...

If you base it off that, you are flat footed before your first regular turn in the initiative order. Which means you aren't flat footed once you start your turn, which means that the turn model goes from start of initiative to start of initiative. It's 6am here and I stayed up all night (wife...

My only disagreement with that being, the one example given in the PHB that references something like that, refers to a round being from the start of a player/creatures turn until the start of their next turn. Meaning that if you took a swift action during your turn, by the text here: During a...

(taking how I've been playing it for the past 2 years out, and trying to look at it from a new perspective- I've been playing you could take an immediate action after your turn during the same initiative round). Possible? Sure. After really digging through the books (and taking away from my...

It depends on how you are defining round. The PHB gives 2 separate definitions of what a round is, but it doesn't specify (nor does any later product) on which version of the definition to use when regarding actions in a combat round and when they reset.

Here's the problem with your argument. If you are going to use the example of the round being 'but it usually means a span of time from one round to the same initiative count in the next round'. There is a huge problem with that. It's stated pretty clear here: 'During a normal round, you can...

The more I look at it, the more I am partly inclined to agree with the original poster. You say that there is nothing prohibiting an immediate action following a swift action after your turn. Here's the problem I have with that statement. During a normal round, you can perform a standard...

Yes, I know that. I've known that since I started playing dnd back in 1982. What I am saying is that turn isn't defined such that it tells you when your actions reset.
