    Putting together an archery build, could use some advice

    Sneak attack is limited to once per turn. Extra attack just gives you more opportunities for attacks to hit, and therefore for sneak attack to be activated, it does not let you use multiple sneak attacks.

    [Homebrew] The Variant Sorcerer - No spell slots, just metamagic and cantrips.

    During the early playtest there was a version of the dragon sorcerer who would grow claws and scales and turn into a melee character as they expended their spell slots, maybe you could draw some inspiration from that?

    Unearthed Arcana [5E] Unearthed Arcana: Races of Eberron (July 2018)

    Warforged Envoys are built with a tool integrated into their body Examples include lockpicks hidden in fingers, or a lute that folds out of the arm. What do I see when I check the tools list in the phb? Vehicles (land or water) ... "Transform and roll out!" It dosen't seem too overpowered to...

    D&D 5E Warlock/Fighter Multiclass advice

    Its not bad. 3 levels of warlock, choosing Bladepact Hexblade with Improved pact weapon is one way to get a magic longbow if your DM is stingy with such things. Along with all the other warlock goodies like spell slots that come back on a short rest and an invocation of your choice. Personally...

    How would you replicate a four elements monk conceptually using different classes?

    A land druid would also make a good faux-elements monk. Many of their spells deal with the same kind of elemental power and effects I imagine the Elemental monk using. Honestly I kind of wish the 4EM could have been a 1/3 caster with limited druid spells.

    Paladin / Warlock Faith conflict query

    Partly this depends on the character's paladin oath and patron choice, but there would be explanations for any of them. For example a devotion/fiend could be a holy warrior who captured a demon and bound it into service rather than destroying it outright; or a former cultist who realized too...

    D&D 5E WotC asks "If you could create one D&D subclass, what would it be and what would it do?

    Jackie Chan style monk with a focus on improvised weapons, grabs and shoves.

    D&D 5E Hexblade spells

    Shield is literally "You hit me? No you didn't." Why would you want to live without that? Suggestion is useful too "Your buddy's armor is cursed! You need to undress him right away!" I prefer Mirror and Hypnotic over Blink and Fear, just for being more predictable. Blade ward is one of the...

    Winged tiefling bladepact warlock seems like the way to go. Invocations cover things like super darkvision or casting while holding weapons.

    D&D 5E [5E] Building a Level 20 Jedi

    To me the most "jedi-like" would be a straight Eldritch Knight, particularly one wielding a sunblade. Spells like Friends, Mage Hand, and thunderwave replicate Jedi force powers pretty well. If you take Find Familiar, maybe your dm will let you have a droid familiar?

    Captain America

    I came up with a Cap build a while back myself: Straight 1-20 Barbarian Human (variant, feat: Tavern Brawler) Starting stats: Str: 16 (14 +1 +1) Dex: 14 Con: 14 (13 +1) Int: 10 Wis: 10 Cha: 12 Tavern brawler gives proficiency with improvised weapons. This is the only way I know to gain...

    D&D 5E Battlemaster Monk idea

    I am (slowly) working on a Monk redesign of my own, including a subclass not unlike this. Check out the Unearthed Arcana playtests for ideas about subclasses with a limited array of combat maneuvers.

    D&D 5E So... what happened during the playtests?

    Afraid you can't even do that, as WotC deleted the entirety of their official forums. This thread prompted me to check some of the old playtest packets saved on my computer. Earliest I could find was from march 2013 (has it really been that long?!) One feature I notice is classes giving a...

    D&D 5E Can we optimize a Small Barbarian?

    Is that before or after stat increases from race and level? How about this: Halfling (lightfoot) Barbarian 5 Paladin 3 Stats after racial modifiers: STR20 DEX18 CON18 INT10 WIS10 CHA13 Polearm master feat Dueling fighting style Using a shield and a quarterstaff (one handed), you will have an...

    D&D 5E Playing a Drow

    On an image board whose name I will not mention here, I read a very funny suggestion of how to roleplay a drow who grew up in the underdark and has only recently come to the surface: Imagine them as recent immigrants from a soviet bloc country. They are amazed by simple things such as mirrors or...

    D&D 5E Shillelagh + Martial Arts

    It "works", but there is not much advantage to be gained. Shillelagh causes a club or quarterstaff to deal 1d8 damage instead of its normal damage die, and to count as a magical weapon. Martial arts lets you use a bonus action to make an unarmed attack after making a regular attack with an...
