    D&D 5E The 2024 Ranger is Actually Pretty Good (with numbers)

    Right. And he explains why for each. Both make perfect sense. They need to make their concentration checks, particularly in that build. Again, I think you missed the point of the exercise. He's not being "fair" in damage-only comparison. He's being "fair" in "this is what a realistic player...

    D&D 5E The 2024 Ranger is Actually Pretty Good (with numbers)

    He didn't use the "wrong" feat he explains he picked the feats he thought he would at each level, even if the feat didn't influence damage. He's not building a "Damage only" build. He DOES compare greatsword to greatsword. Did you not see his conclusion videos, where he lumps each type of...

    D&D 5E The 2024 Ranger is Actually Pretty Good (with numbers)

    1) Agreed, starting Fighter 1 doesn't make you "not a Ranger" so I'd just do that if the concept fits 2) Treantmonk specifically says he's not fully optimizing just making simple builds with similar flat simple decisions to get a rough comparison. His conclusion was all the melee classes roughly...

    D&D General 6 pairs of D&D socks for $5+tax at Dollarama

    Great deal! I have a few D&D socks but these are new to me. Would totally buy them if saw that deal. It's $21.14 on Amazon:

    D&D General Changing subclasses mid-campaign (or even classes)

    We had a player do this. The DM arranged with him to have his PC die in a battle with plant creatures, and then revive as a semi-plant creature with alterations to his abilities.

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    I said once per campaign, but really I want to say as often as the fates make it happen. It's not the quantity of deaths that I think about, it's just that it be a present risk that, if we are foolish AND our luck is poor, we will die.

    D&D General Just sweeping dirty dishes under the rug: D&D, Sexism, and the '70s

    I approve of this Snarfism as I did not have to dedicate an entire afternoon to read it for once.

    no time for me to follow the maths here but definitely watching this thread

    D&D (2024) The bladelock two-weapon fighter: fundamentally unsound?

    No I think that's correct. You could go shillelagh (club) with the off-hand weapon?

    D&D General Elon Musk Wants To Know 'How Much Is Hasbro?'

    I think if you guys find it difficult to discuss this topic without using it as a proxy to discuss political topics not welcomed here, you might instead consider posting it over on CircvsMaximvs.com. Which still exists, and is still paid for by Morrus (I assume?), and where you can discuss any...

    Ernie is helping sell items from the bankrupt museum, and he and Justin get to keep about 48% of the proceeds for the promotion and efforts they put in to liquidating the assets.

    D&D General Elon Musk Wants To Know 'How Much Is Hasbro?'

    Yes. Not a death threat, just a "On the list of people I wouldn't be unhappy if they dropped dead" sort of thing. There's been some really big emotions among these four topics about Elon Musk. All triggered by what truly was a silly Tweet. Zard has it right. Crack a beer. This is not a serious...

    D&D General Elon Musk Wants To Know 'How Much Is Hasbro?'

    I'm taking it too seriously when everyone is freaking out (a couple wishing death on someone) because a troll said "How much is Hasbro?"

    D&D General Elon Musk Wants To Know 'How Much Is Hasbro?'

    Don't most Mars plans involve covering a trench and tunnelling from there?

    D&D General Elon Musk Wants To Know 'How Much Is Hasbro?'

    He doesn't need to own the company for that though right?

    D&D General Elon Musk Wants To Know 'How Much Is Hasbro?'

    Think about every corporate purchase choice Musk's made so far. It's all about his dream to get to Mars: Boring company, to drill tunnels on Mars; Hyperloop, for transport on Mars; SpaceX, to get to Mars and launch satellites for communications with Starlink; Tesla, for electric engines to power...

    D&D General Elon Musk Wants To Know 'How Much Is Hasbro?'

    It isn't too real to be funny because it's not real. He didn't threaten anyone. Y'all need to take it down a notch on the anxiety meter. We've literally had not one but two different "I wish he were dead" comments in these threads. Deep breath my friend. Elon Musk is not buying Hasbro.

    D&D General Elon Musk Wants To Know 'How Much Is Hasbro?'

    Well it's funny right now to me. But if you want to ride that anxiety train, more power to you.

    D&D General Elon Musk Wants To Know 'How Much Is Hasbro?'

    I can sit back and laugh at this. Because nothing happened. Dude who trolls on a daily basis happened to troll in this sub-culture and now what, everyone needs to get super outraged and take this oh so seriously? Come on, it's OK for people to laugh about this.
