    D&D 5E Acquisitions, Inc.: First Impressions

    Yes, in the sense that is where the usual detritus of the game get's deposited. :p Forgotten Realms being the 'kitchen sink' of the published settings works well with this metaphor, as does that fact that when the 'plot-tide' turns, everything that went before is irrelevant water under the...

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder Second Edition: I hear it's bad - Why Bad, How Bad?

    Only a little sillier than paying a company to contribute to their product playtesting development phase.

    Stargate RPG Powered By 5E Announced from Wyvern Gaming

    5e is plain wrong for this. Zat'Nik'Tel weapons for instance - they ALWAYS drop you in the series no matter who you are and kill subsequently (if human and not serioulsy augmented in a way the main characters weren't) so they are an IWIN button once you have a big attack bonus and multiple...

    D&D 5E Pets The Problem and Solution

    The pet is bad in 5th - I allow Rangers to combine 1 other subclass with the pet one and it doesn't make them OP at all.

    A Few Balance Changes I'm Considering

    Keep counterspell, have it counter any spell whose TARGET is within 60ft of the caster so it cannot shut down caster at source, but make it a Spell Attack roll-off like an opposed skill roll...

    D&D 5E Fixing the terrible Weapon Master feat

    That's great that she likes it and it helps her play the character she has in her head. But it still doesn't make the Feat any good. The two issues are separate. Your wife could play exactly the same concept she clearly enjoys from your example if the Feat was more up to speed with other ones...

    Has Paizo ever talked about releasing their adventures in 5E format?

    Yes - thinking they are being knee-jerk is foolish. You don't build a successful business without a good dose of business acumen and common sense. However - brands have been known (through in some cases an inability to evolve their business model) to die on their feet by doggedly sticking to...

    Incorporeal Creatures Carrying Objects

    Not at all - just a shame you don't see it, or if you do, you can't admit it.

    D&D 5E Help! What’s the best place in the multiverse to hide from the Inevitables?

    In the home of the Inevitables. With their job spec. it's pretty much a certainty they don't have time to ever get home, never mind order pizza and watch a boxed set...

    Has Paizo ever talked about releasing their adventures in 5E format?

    It would be interesting to see a conversion of Golarion plus all adventure material released for 5th, but it would never happen unless there was a sea-change in the Paizo business model. However, considering the popularity of the complexity-busting 5th Edition and the less than rave-popular...

    Incorporeal Creatures Carrying Objects

    So there we are! We agree, that the OP's question about Incorporeal Creatures Carry Objects is suitably apropos - because the Trait requires liberal amounts of DM ruling. It just potentially requires a whole lot of rulings once combat is joined - which is a sure sign of a poorly written rule.

    Incorporeal Creatures Carrying Objects

    @5ekyu I note that you sidestepped the entire point of my post and didn't answer any of the situational conflicts the RAW give rise to - concentrating on the only element of your argument that is on solid ground. Let me make one last appeal to you to answer on the many exceptions to the way in...

    Incorporeal Creatures Carrying Objects

    Thanks for being snarky - that always helps things along on these forums. You are putting the blame on the wrong side of the issue here. There is no particular mistake being made by users of the rules in interpreting the rules on Incorporeal Movement as the creature being Incorporeal. The...

    Incorporeal Creatures Carrying Objects

    @ jgsugden, 5ekyu The 'logic' offered by those supporting this argument was that having a strength score guarantees the ability interract with physical objects. No rule states this is right, or wrong. In using the word 'incorporeal' the writers of the rules deliberately invoked it's literal...

    Incorporeal Creatures Carrying Objects

    I will. The relevant rules clearly state how MUCH you can carry, not tacking the issue of IF you can carry things. No 'parsing' is required. YOU have added this meaning to it - conflating this rule with your personal take on what you choose to expand it to include. You interpretation is what...
