    D&D (2024) Should the environmental conditions scale by tier?

    well...no. that's more then a tad silly. unless, of course, there's something CAUSING those storms to get more dangerous, and you use that as a plot hook for the players to investigate, or something along those lines. but then it's not JUST "storm more dangerous because tier 2".

    Level Up (A5E) Adept Question

    i mean, i'd hope so. they're running way more creatures and thus making way more attacks.

    ZEITGEIST Using Music in the Zeitgeist Adventure Path

    the arcanum ost is pretty great, especially the main theme. also, i think i found a new song to put in somewhere. for something particularly sad. maybe PC deaths, instead of far away. ...i miss my cats.

    ZEITGEIST Using Music in the Zeitgeist Adventure Path

    well, it's not complete (and probably won't be for a while), but if i don't post it now i'm gonna forget to do it at all, so here's what i have. i don't have links to anything and it's literally just a word doc, but it shouldn't be too hard to find the songs on youtube (yes, that includes the...

    D&D (2024) Is Combat Tedious on Purpose?

    you could also stat them out as level 8 or 9 elites, level 12 or 13 standards, or level 20 or 21 minions, if im not mistaken, by using the xp thresholds as a benchmark to convert them to different types of creatures.

    ZEITGEIST Using Music in the Zeitgeist Adventure Path

    im not actually sure it's as thorough as i may have made it seem. i haven't finished it yet (i've been focusing on my current campaign) and a lot of the names i gave for sections would probably be bizarre and esoteric to anyone else (i had to rename several sections for that post!). but i think...

    How and why do you solo play?

    i have, as a dm, done what i guess you could describe as "solo play" to test things or set up scenarios where the party is walking into the middle or result of a fight between npcs. i don't think that's what's being described in the op, though.

    D&D General What Should Magic Be Able To Do, From a Gameplay Design Standpoint?

    illusion (the classic schools still exist) and shapechanging/transformation cover the first and last, but ig you COULD have an emotion school? but to be clear, the spells in level up are mainly grouped by the classical schools. the others are more like tags or traits

    ZEITGEIST Zeitgeist Campaign Completed!

    well, 20 active RHC field agents from the FLINT branch, to be specific. we don't know how many field agents the other branches have (though considering flint is the largest city in risur, i'd say the numbers for the other branches are similar if not lower).

    Level Up (A5E) A5E First Impressions

    ...yeah, that table doesn't say that anywhere. it consistently labels medium challenges as being (as close to) 1/3 the total party level (as possible). you MIGHT be mixing up total party level (which is the sum of the party's total levels) with AVERAGE party level (which is the average level of...

    Level Up (A5E) A5E First Impressions

    what are you looking at? i don't see a table that says a medium encounter is equal to the total party level anywhere in my copy of the A5e MM. edit: or do you mean it calls the goblin encounter a medium encounter? because the example itself does the same (and for a party of 3 level 1...

    D&D (2024) Mob Rules

    okay, it looks like the 2024 rules change how they present the 2014 rules here. im not sure the change would be particularly helpful, but then i don't really care for the mob rules in either, so im probably not the guy to ask.

    ZEITGEIST Using Music in the Zeitgeist Adventure Path

    i haven't started running zeitgeist yet (and i probably won't for a while - i'm a good ways into running a doomed forgotten realms campaign that, if all goes well, won't be ending any time soon), but i have an entire word document with songs for different parts of the campaign (primarily action...
