hi folks, I'm trying to balance feats a bit for my next game. I didn't get around to fixing all the overly weak feats (doesn't usually greatly impact the game as no one takes them), but I tried to "punch up" some of the weaker ones. Also tried to limit some of the stronger ones. I'd...

Hi folks, A group of old friends distributed all over the US have been using Fantasy Grounds for years now and it works well (pathfinder, 5e and a bit of blades-in-the-dark). But our next pathfinder game looks like it will have 6 players and will be more intrigue oriented than we normally do...

I'm amused this thread is back up, mostly because in the current game I'm playing I'm playing a very high AC circle of the moon druid. Did it with the original version of the warforged. I shouldn't have gone CoM given that they almost never change shape in combat. Level 8 now, AC 21 and...

Probably been asked elsewhere, but if you could change/fix just a handful of 5e things, what would go on your list? There are a handful (5? 6?) feats that are just too good. They probably need to move down a bit in power. I find that the point-buy rules make characters a bit too "samey" even...

Sounds like fun. Mechanically drow is probably weaker than human with polearm mastery (it's a huge feat, up there with GWM). As far as spells, I find that by Warlock 5/Barb1 I'm mostly casting Armor of Aghathys and fireball. Really not much of anything else other than darkness on rare...

I did base her off the CR 30 one but didn't see how to reduce her...

Perfect, I'm planning it for the end of Red Hand of Doom, so that's where they should be. And the party is grossly optimized and heavy on magic, so should be about perfect with the hit points added and a move option put in for a legendary action.

Thank you all for the feedback. I figured I was high, but didn't think I was that high. The detailed feedback is really useful. I didn't figure she should move around a lot, but yes, I can see why that would be important. I'll add something like it. What level party would you say she would...

I'm shooting for CR 13, but I think it's probably 14? I'd like your thoughts. Aspect Of Tiamat Huge dragon, chaotic evil Armor Class 20 (Natural Armor) Hit Points 190 (18d10 + 90) Speed 40 ft., climb 40 ft., fly 80 ft. STR 24 (+7) DEX 11 (+0) CON 20 (+5) INT 19 (+4) WIS 16 (+3) CHA 19 (+4)...

Yeah, that's it. Thanks. Hopefully I can find something more somewhere.

Anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm planning on running RHoD for 5th edition in a few months and it looks like a massive amount of work. So any help welcome.

Hi folks, I see there was a kickstarter for a Red Hand of Doom conversion guide. A) was it any good? B) is there any way to get a hold of it? Thanks!

Any idea where one might sell them? Any company at GenCon? Don't mind not getting their full value, just don't want them tossed out after having kept them for 30 years or so.

Hi folks, I'm cleaning house and heading to GenCon (just for Sunday) and found a bunch of the old Polyhedron news magazines laying around. Issues 1 to 20 or something like that. Are these worth trying to sell? If so, any idea on prices or what shop (or person I guess) might be interested...

Thanks all. http://hardcodex.ru/monsters/ looks like a helpful site. I think I'll build a csv file for each encounter (most monsters are already done there). Still more than a bit annoyed that WotC doesn't have something set up for this.

I've mostly either played games (both in person and on fantasy grounds) or run home-brewed games. I'm going to start a Yawning Portal game (that might morph into Strahd at some point). And I'm starting to think about prep. Is there any pre-done work that has the monster stat blocks grouped by...

Yeah, base human is pretty bad. IMO alt-human is too good. It would be nice to find a solid middle-ground.

Thanks folks, I think the biggest problem, as jgsugden calls out, is that the "weaker" feats _still_ won't have any takers. And that is a problem. Only a handful are really powerful. But those are really powerful. So much so that, IMO, they are much more useful, especially at lower levels...

Hi folks, I'm planning on starting a new 5e game. I _really_ like 5e, but I've found, especially at lower-levels, that alt-human is a bit overpowered. That first feat makes a huge difference. I also think that feats are really fun for 1st level characters to have. Also, the standard human...

I've only started using this feat and the issue has come up 2 or 3 times per session. It seems like folks must have encountered this issue before (folks around a door, etc.). The whole thing feels wonky. But as written I *think* what you have is correct Li Shenron.
