    D&D 5E Dungeonscape no more?

    It's my understanding that the iOS app was much further along (months) in development than the Android and Web versions and that it was the iOS app that was waiting on final approval (I don't recall from whom approval was waiting...apple, wotc, or both). Maybe more was bitten off than could be...

    D&D 5E Dungeonscape no more?

    just when I thought WOTC was moving into a new age. Can't wait to read the reasoning behind this move.

    D&D 5E Let's list the "broken" spells

    Like any thing else if you don't like change it, Rule 0. I see the long rest as a period of recuperation so not necessarily 100% sleep but a combination of activities that is abstracted into a period of time that help you get over the previous days hurts, stresses, and resource drain. It's no...

    D&D 5E Let's list the "broken" spells

    According to Mike Mearls' tweets that is not a correct interpretation. does Trance allow elves to get the benefit of long rest in 4 hours instead of 8? nope, they still need 8 hours of rest, but spend only 4 of it zonked out. -M Read more...

    D&D 5E wands

    Dang ninja'ed with my own tweet LOL! Thanks for posting Thaumaturge! Based on Mike's response I think until the DMG is out and I can see a bigger representation of how things are restricted then I'm going with anyone can use Detect Magic and Magic Missile wands.

    D&D 5E wands

    Do magic wands require a spell caster? Since the description of the two wands in the Basic DMG rules refer to casting a spell I'm leaning towards yes....thoughts?

    D&D 5E DungeonScape (formerly known as Morningstar)

    I shared a flight with them and I can tell you they are invested in the success. Obviously they didn't discuss their contract with me from WOTC but the app is built upon their proprietary system and they have a ton of features planned out.

    D&D 5E What is your favourite PHB class?

    i have to admit that I'm excited about playing a halfling bard...can't wait to read all the full descriptions and features. I reserve the right to change my mind after reading each class' entry no less than 10 times.

    D&D 5E Given WotC plans with the RPG will 5e always be the #1 seller?

    that's pretty much what I am thinking too. Hasbro is even suing to get the movie rights back and I hope they are successful.

    D&D 5E Given WotC plans with the RPG will 5e always be the #1 seller?

    doesn't matter what the degrees are or even if they have any at all. Credentials outside of direct experience or primary sources for that information are irrelevant. basing arguments on degree or credentials is a fallacy. You having a degree or even business experience doesn't give you any...

    D&D 5E Hidden Player rolls?

    depends on the situation. I may use passive checks. I have used secret rolls for the players before to make certain scenes a bit more tension filled, don't over use this. Generally though I'll just have them roll and we'll RP it out, since generally if they are rolling dice then they have...

    Where are all the 5th Edition Events?

    There's a fair amount of official gaming and launch activities, although, I think most of the events organized by WOTC were sold out almost immediately. http://www.wizards.com/DnD/Feature.aspx?x=dnd/feature/gencon has the complete listing of events. All Access Pass (morning and afternoon...
