    D&D 5E What is your preferred style, and what tweaks do you do to get there?

    At first I hated downtime, now I consider it the 4th Pillar. I fly by the seat of my pants mostly. Homebrew designs with random rolls. High Magic above other settings. (Heavy Metal, Wizard arm's race, Tech and Fantasy mash-up, Cowboy Gun Mages) Space Marine invasion to cleanse and purge...

    D&D 5E Would you buy a 5E updated reprint of the First Forgotten Realms Box Set

    I am tempted to buy Xanathars. Other than that, I am ready for a new setting and something spelljammery. My money is best spent elsewhere right now.

    D&D 5E This is a directory of posters who think the sorcerer needs fixing

    Ah, the legacy sorcerer that everyone wanted over the playtest 'were-dragon'. Watch out for what you wish for. But anyways. The only problem that I find in game is the way DMs work Tides of Chaos. Whenever I join a game, I remind myself to ask how the DM handles it.

    Help with balancing my party

    Guessing you are in late Tier 1, I would promote the group to level 8. The outdamage will not look so lopsided and the other guys in the party will have a bunch of new things to play around with and won't care that much. Instead of goblins, trolls. You get the idea.

    D&D 5E Building a better Monk

    The cantrips offer some much needed flavor. I predict lowering the ki cost will lengthen the adventure day. That is ok. I got used to the short rest monk, tho, so I am predicting more nova/resting by making WW and FoUA bonus actions.

    D&D 5E Building a better Monk

    Going to try this out and see how it plays. Way of the 4 Elements Monk (3LvL): - You learn: Control Flame, Gust, Mold Earth, and Shape Water from Elemental Evil Players Companion. - Water Whip and Fist of Unbroken Air use a Bonus Action.

    D&D 5E Looking for Short Urban Adventures for Levels 1-3

    I have run B6 The Veiled Society using 5E. Easy conversion and easy to sprout outwards. I can unarchive all my Known World play by posts threads and you can read the entire game.

    D&D 5E Why I Am Starting to Prefer 4d6 Drop the Lowest Over the Default Array.

    Just two coppers. I prefer 4d6 drop lowest, but, put simply, I don't fully really positively agree with Zard's put simplies. My recent Cleric: A human non-variant resulting in:ST9 DX16 CN13 IN18 WS13 CH16 - Neither highest nor lowest rolls at the table. People are thinking, capped gnome 1st...

    D&D 5E Best designed classes in 5e

    Probably my favorite thing about the PHB classes is that I can remove the entire chapter of classes and make up my own and still play D&D. If I was going to go all out, I would build one class, an Adventurer, then add a slew of subclasses to add flavor. The Adventurer class would use the 5E...

    D&D 5E I Was Wrong!!!!!

    Playing a Shadow Monk with the sailor background right now. He plays nothing like the typical eastern archetype. The sound effects being the only exception. Just can't get away from that "PWAWEEE" when attacking.

    D&D 5E Anyone else think the Bard concept is just silly?

    I can take a Bard class and play it as a druid concept. I can also take a Druid class and play that character like it is a bard. I use class as a mechanical skeleton, then putty in the character concept. Sometimes you get baggage, like druids being metal armor prohibited but it mostly works out...

    D&D 5E About Ability Scores...

    When your DM rolls 18 when the Intellect Devourer hits you, your 19 intelligence is safe.

    D&D 5E Gnome Sorceress using Arcane Trickster

    Does your character take shape during play or is it pre-fabbed and then filled in? I have sketched out levels 1 through 20 before the game starts but I have also played the game, letting the game shape the character. Both ways, or a combo of both, are okay.
