    D&D 5E Creative Surgery

    yeah this goes back to what I said about "fun at table" we have a scenero where there is a timer... and someone got knocked out by a bad crit.... and we don't have healing, so this crazy metagame answer sounds to me like the players are REALLY saying We want to keep playing" not "This is the...

    this is a super hard qustion... but if @Umbran has the buy in of his players... they just would NOT do it

    i can consider all TTRPG D7d if I stretch it... but yeah I see all the editions of D&D and atleast 1e PF to be D&D.

    okay, but agreeing back at the begining of the edition to just not do so doesn't fit this at all... again if I want to bring DM side stuff in that's great, if Matt in his game or john in his wants to that's great too. If we want to play a wholey different style of game that is a pitch. however...

    I think 4e could have streamlined a lot by having some encounter and daily scale instead of having a new option at that level... so at level X I can trade out my make 2 attacks for 2w each for a make 3 attacks for 2w each... or I can have 1 less power at that level and the orginal say if you...

    100% agree here. As one of those people that doesn't use player facing 3pp I am leery of wotc product that have been out less then a month. FOr Tasha;s we had the unearthed arcana play test for some time, and still none of us brought it into a game until we ended one and started the next and...

    D&D 5E Creative Surgery

    I have a hafling wizard that is a diviner with the lucky feat... I would jump at this trick, cause I have so many get out of jail free cards, but having said that, I still would warn about abuse

    D&D 5E Creative Surgery

    that exact thing, no... similar rules shenanigans yes. I have seen the 3e bucket of water to get to 0 (well to be fair it was a river on the battle mat) and that is pretty close. the amount of shenanigans I put up with is based on the table play... would the game be better and more fun if I...

    I will say I feel we do not have enough feats in 5e, so if this change increases it that would be good. but I ALSO thought 4e and 3e had too many... so this needle is hard to thread

    D&D General How would you redo 4e?

    fair enough... and where I would want a future edition to have more of that then 5e does (and I don't allow flank to give any bonus to make other advantages more useful in my own games) I do see a value on a cap... not everything stacking... now 3e and 4e had things like named bonuses... but I...

    maybe, if you are finding your players are not invested this may be the answer, since that is not a problem at our tables (normally) I don't know... my advice to someone asking how to get there players more invested would not have ever been "bring in more books" but you may be right.

    D&D 5E Martials should just get free feats

    I'm not going point by point any more... I took YOUR math that YOU said 2/3 and assumed it was right. I then kept going with it. I will admit I added 3 extra damage because I miss remembered green flame. like teh fighter in plate instead of useing his dex I will admit to a mistake. However I...

    D&D General Kobold Press Going Down a Dark Road

    I knwo this wasn't directed at me, but I think I have a pretty fair answer... IF 1D&D is just a slight variation but still 5e, then so is black flagg if 1D&D is enough of a change to be a new half (0.5) edition, then so is black flagg if 1 D&D is enough of a change to be a new edition (6e) then...

    D&D General How would you redo 4e?

    correct, if I have a +7 to hit and someone has an AC 30 advantage is not as much help as +5 (this goes for skills and DC too but I want to use combat for nat 20) if you roll twicce you do have double the chance of a nat 20 hitting no matter what... but that +5 means you are now at +12 so you...

    again this only works if you already did the leg work and the discussion... again I am not saying WotC is better, Im saying its an easy "just one"

    IT isn't just them wanting broken stuff (but look at my screen name i know people who that is true for) it's Ross wanting a new cool warlock pact, and Jim wanting the werewolf class from this, and kurt wanting just these two feats from these two books.... it adds up

    1 new book per month (heck sometimes 1 new book per 3 months) compared to say 10 compaies putting out anywhere from 1 a month to 1 per 3 months...

    I think of it as 1 company vs manuy myself. I actually double hit the 0 on my phone, I meant 20-30 the 30 was right not the 200 but I can see you had a 50/50 shot of getting my meaning. my fault for not catching the typo if I was playing zelda on my switch sure... but I play at 2 tables a week...

    D&D General How would you redo 4e?

    4e already has a lot of "add X or Y" where X or Y may be +1 +2 or a stat... useing advantage would let them stream line some of them... Take teh warlord (my favorite class) if you had at wills and 1st and 3rd level encounter powers that gave advantage on things(the at wills scale to add a...
