We play with a feat at level 1. I’m also going to try letting my players select synergy feats with a 1/1 prerequisite instead of 3/3.

Synergy feats are very cool idea but seriously gimp your character for quite a few levels if you do the intended 4/4 split. You are effectively playing in tier 1 until level 9! I recommend asking your DM ahead of time to retrain your level 4 ASI when you qualify for the synergy feat...

No, I don’t think the feature allows it. The key language is: “This limits the spell’s range to that of your unarmed strike and the number of targets to one.” The feature doesn’t expand the range of spells with a range of Self.

The expanded fighting style options for the Fighter were by far my favorite player-facing GPG content this year. More of that please!

It’s way more fun if you let them use it after the roll.

A level 17 Walking Rock adept with a +3 spider-silk padded leather, a +3 heavy shield, brutal defense, and a potion of storm giant strength is sitting 16 + 9 + 5 + 6 = 36 AC. I’m sure there are some other magic items, like rings of protection, that require attunement and which could push this...

From the AG:

Totally agree—eldritch scythe is the way to go, especially after Warlock 11. I was just responding to the question about whether warlocks can make two off-hand attacks, and the answer is yes. With respect to the original post and Dread Knight, it’s just not really meant to be a ranged build...

All level 5 warlocks count as having extra attack by virtue of the extra blast feature. They can* make two attacks with two-weapon fighting as long as they make at least one qualifying melee weapon attack with the attack action.

The target saves against each effect.

You get a bonus action and a reaction as normal; it only consumes your action. Because the Rapid Response spell is cast when initiative is rolled before any creature’s turn, it does not occur on your turn, and so you are free to cast a leveled spell as a bonus action (and may always do so as a...

Adding modifiers to a roll doesn’t change the number on the die and neither does subtracting them. A natural 20 is still a natural 20, and therefore a critical hit on an attack roll.

Makes sense, thanks.

Terrific archetypes. One question about the Walking Rock adept. They get access to the Adamant Mountain tradition, but their unarmed strike (and adept weapons) don’t count as having the heavy property. Should their unarmed strikes count as having the heavy property? (And what about small...

Agreed that it’s odd. Probably just an unexpected synergy, but nothing broken.
