My 2cp, even though I personally love playing Wizards, there's a couple of reasons why they can in fact be boring: 1st cp: when a Wizard covers with spells too many adventuring functions, it stops having a role of its own in the party; a jack-of-all trade is the worst possible character in a...

Interesting point... TBH my preference is actually a setting "forever stuck in time", but I can see the appeal of a living setting. Doesn't suit me only because I'm too slow and I would not want to adapt my campaigns to a continuously updated metaplot. But it does feel a bit like 5e setting...

The other characters are now leading the conversation pretty well, nothing to add from Grim just at this very moment...

I am going to use my statement to just dismiss people who talk about "true issues". As you said, it IS subjective. Talking about "true issues" kinds implies it is objective. Which is not. We've been seeing this since 1974. And maybe the closest thing to be called a "true issue" is that people...

There are a lot of things they are thinking, and many different motivations behind change, it doesn't imply a true issue exists.

No, there aren't. Everybody just think they represent the whole gaming community, or at least the community that "plays the game right". Even your first example of gold, is certainly not a true issue.

"Indeed burning everything to the ground is a bit extreme, not to mention potentially even useless... how can they be sure mere fire is enough to stop it? What if the plague is magic in nature? But I get you two are not among 'those cleansers'. And that what's happening or risks to happen here...

PS: sorry but I don't use Discord

As Grim feels the attempt to probe her mind, she instinctively goes on the defensive and resist a bit, even though she doesn't feel it's harmless. Trying to stay calm and to look cooperative as well as non-threatening: "Look, if you there's something you want to tell me, you can speak in the...

Yes, she is typically suspicious and defensive, but the situation is still very ambiguous to her. Being an arcane trickster, she might know telepathy is harmless, but still not like it. She literally met the rest of the party minutes ago, so she can't possibly decide whether a secret telepathic...

Can Grim feel if the mind effect attempted on her is a charm/enchantment or just telepathy? If there's a chance it is harmful she will instinctively resist it, but isn't harmless telepathy actually non-blockable?

Grim has no reason to act as if she were trying to hide anything, so she smiles at the inquirer and keeps looking at the stranger in the eye while raising her hands a bit, making her tattoo easily visible. She is of course prepared to react viciously if threatened. (by the way if it matters...

The categorization is a simplification made by designers at some point in D&D history to streamline designing and balancing the game. I would say that what distinguishes the three different categories is mainly the pace and the state of mind of the players, rather than the rule subset being...

Ah and I forgot the most important thing... I wish the difficulty increased with level and not the opposite.

Nowadays, I would like the game to be challenging as in "hard to win quests, but easy to survive". Sadly for me, almost every gaming group does either "easy to win and survive" or "easy to die (but actually still easy to win if you don't)".

Wait until they release the books. It also wasn't in the original 5e playtest from 2012 to 2014, they added it in without ever asking feedback publicly.

"Well that's handy..." while watching Orris floating upwards to the man in the window, Grim stands a bit distracted in admiration, pondering between whether she can be any help to him or more help to herself by escaping the flames getting close so quickly. But as she hears the voices threatening...

I guess the first two images are swapped i.e. left one is "enhanced" and right one is the original sketch. In these particular examples, I don't see where the problem is. The sketch is clearly VERY close to the final version, so the enhancement is literally just a technical refinement of the...

Wisdom: 1d20+2 = 7+2 = 9 https://www.coyotecode.net/roll/lookup.php?rollid=281679 Website instruction could be better... I managed to roll a zero in my first attempt :rolleyes:

Should we use an online dice roller website? There used to be this very good one called Invisible Castle where you could create a character and save all dice rolls for an adventure, so everyone would see that you didn't roll multiple times to get a better score, but unfortunately that particular...
