Thanks :) It's hard to believe that, in practice, Legendary actions & Legendary resistance do not make the monster more dangerous. If we take a look at both the Goristro demon and the Adult Red dragon (CR17) they seems balanced before taking into consideration the Legendary features. Precisely...

Thanks guys for the answers :) Actually my question is more about the "Legendary C17 monster" and less about the "Adult Red Dragon" : i could have ask the same question about the Androsphinx, for example. Is (CR17+Legendary) well balanced enough for a perfect climax (against 4 level 11 PC) ?

Hi guys ! From your play experience, is an Adult Red Dragon (CR 17 Legendary monster) strong enough to fight all alone against a solid (but not optimized) party of 4 level 11 PC et provide a fun and challenging experience ? If it's not, wich (CR + Legendary) combinaison would be better suited ...

The strenght of the 5e Starter set is the quality of the module. The 5e Essentials kit is, by far, a more complete/sexy product than the 5e Starter set (with GM's screen, conditions card and stuff like that) but if i had to choose* i will pick the 5e Starter set anytime. Because LMoP is that...

I answered D&D 3.5, D&D 4, D&D 5 and other (thinking about Basic D&D) D&D 3.5 because of E6, D&D 4 because of the cosmology and the game design experiments. D&D 5 et BD&D because it's, from my POV, the two best editions of D&D ever. My feeling is we're living the golden age of D&D because...

I bet we will have a Dungeon kit/screen and a City kit/screen to complete the Wilderness kit/screen

Hi ! I'm a french player and game designer, my OSR/DIY minimalist D&D game Coureurs d'Orages ("Storm Runners") use DC 16 as the universal DC (that's why we choosed the esoteric tarot's major arcana number 16, the tower, for the cover of the core rulebook). If the test must be more difficult, on...

I must admit i don't really care about Tiers 3 & 4 : from my point of view 5e is a perfect game when campaigns end around level 9 or, eventually, level 11. And if you really want your Thief or Scout to feel like a magical wanderer there's good stuff to do with Magic initiate (Druid) or Ritual...

With the Outlander feature the PC can provide food to the entire party without any skill check. As a Thief he can climb faster than anyone on trees or cliffs. As a Healer Thief he can gives back a substancial amount of HP in and out of combat (the hands of the king can heal !). Thoses gifts are...

From my point of view a Rogue (Thief) Outlander with the Healer feat is totally decent Ranger.

Yes. They even made a movie about it ;)

Very interesting ! I strongly suggest to take a look at the movie the Hunted from 2003 Even more than J. Rambo in First Blood, L.T. Bonham is the archetypal Ranger in a "real world setting".

If i'm correct : a Level 1 Bard knows 2 cantrips & 4 spells a level 1 Cleric (with +3 WIS and a fixed list of spells) knows 3 cantrips, 4 spells & 2 domain spells a Level 9 Valor Bard knows 3 cantrips & 12 spells a level 9 Cleric (with +5 WIS and a fixed list of spells) knows 4 cantrips, 14...

Indeed. I do no want to tweak the rules. And even with a fixed "prepared spells" list i'm quite sure the Life Cleric needs more reading and understanding of spells than the Valor Bard.

Some feats are dead simple (Tough, Resilient, Prodigy...). Variant human is ok i think, with one of them. You're not the first one to suggest this team. I will seriously think about it. :D

So... Wich one ? :D (Yeah... I'm not really sold on the Life Cleric) Yeah, they will be variant humans. A least i can use the Prodigy feat to give an aera of expertise to every PC and still keep it really simple. (?)

The Witch King i'm not sure but Archie, Betty and Veronica ar all CR 8 :D

Do you really think Life Cleric is simpler than Lore Bard ? A Lot of spells to read. Very interesting ! Do you have suggestions for the bard known spells ? I'm looking for a very classic fantasy mood, so no living constructs ^^ Do you really think Paladin is simpler than Champion Fighter ?

Hi guys. I will soon start a campaign with 3 players, full beginners from a TRPG point of view. So i want to start eeaaasy with the rules and the roll-playing, using pré-gen characters. From your perspectiv what is the simplest and most effectiv team for 3 players ? The simplicity aspect is...
