True, as a dm its really easy to adjust for bigger numbers. Just add more hp to each monster

The stealth check meme makes me think of how stealth never works in parties, because theres always the one or two people who refuse it sit back and wait while those with stealth go ahead.

ehhh... all feats have a bigger problem. You can only ever take 1-2 (few characters hit 12th level much less 20), and all feats compete against a stat boost. Better fix would be allowing more feats on characters in general. Feats are a huge development space where most of them are strictly bad...

my stunned person with full movement and 30ft tall giants 'sneaking' in broad daylight unable to be seen beg to differ.

sadly 5th ed got rid of it, and soul cage is pretty stupid as its duration is soo short.

Yet somehow non-summoner players can take just as long or longer

Pretty much. The goal was to change just enough to sell all the same books again. Yet somehow they still screwed it up

its almost like there was zero testing, all feedback was ignored, and anything beyond lvl 6 recieved exactly ZERO thought about how it worked...

I don't like the feel of this. Cramming the info into a smaller space makes reading it harder and everything seems more complicated. Then people will pay less attention to stat blocks and the devs will say "monsters are too complicated, we better oversimplify things", while ignoring how they...

In a political game, and its really not going the way the dm expected when speak with dead, raise dead/circle of truth and all other sorts of things can happen. Suddenly murder is a VERY undependable way to silence people.

EVERY player can slow the game down. What spell do I cast? Which way do I move? People focus WAY to much on summoned stuff when any and all classes can grind a table to a halt. Its really far more player dependent. EVERY summoner I know is far far more organized than almost every other player at...

I prefer to use golems AS a range attack. Big catapaults!

im glad they removed all attacks that also require a save. Those were so worthless

designed by who? Certainly not the designers, as they intentionally removed it from the books.

unofficial is like rai. Its not whats written, and the lore of the books does nothing to uphold it. Its just wishful thinking that it still exists.

indeed, elemental planes remind me of dnd races. Each race which isn't human has 1 set of characteristics. ALL halflings are curious and friendly. 100%. All gnomes like gadgets. Soo many "options" but less than no thought or design put into any of them. The planes are the same way, they're just...

You should bring back the older beholder abilities that 5th ed left out. Like the antimagic beam - its not an attack its just always on. So if beholder is facing you, 100% of magic items cease to function. This alone makes them WAY more dangerous.

unofficially is the same as "does not exist".

I think this is difficult because dnd has this "casters cannot be melee" thing they cannot get over. Clerics can walk around in full plate and cast spells, but wizards must wear pajamas and cannot use weapons, because logic. As well, the action economy of 5th ed makes it harder. You'd imagine...

To the op its not surprising. Little to no testing on their part, and completely ignoring the community that did play test things. Its pretty standard that they pay virtually no attention to what most people say when testing stuff.
