    D&D (2024) Martial vs Caster: Removing the "Magical Dependencies" of high level.

    But none of that works unless you have a high enough midiclorian count

    D&D (2024) Martial vs Caster: Removing the "Magical Dependencies" of high level.

    According the criticalrole.fandom.com: Percy is listed as Fighter (Gunslinger) Orym is listed as Fighter (Battle Master)

    D&D (2024) Are Bishops "Clerics" or "Priests"

    IMO, "Priests" are holy people that reside in a church, temple, or other holy building, who spread the faith and do good in the community. "Clerics" are priests who go off adventuring (don armor, wield weapons, carry a backpack & bedroll, etc.). By those definitions, I would conclude that...

    D&D (2024) Martial vs Caster: Removing the "Magical Dependencies" of high level.

    I've been doing some thinking about this and I would be all for getting rid of the Battlemaster as a subclass and just incorporating its features into the core Fighter class. I jotted down some notes that, I think, work for both 5e and One D&D: Combat Superiority (3rd level) – move to 2nd...

    D&D (2024) spells going forward

    Except the "spiritual" part of Spiritual Guardians implies Divine magic I'll spare everyone my rant on multiclassing and its problems. I've always considered the Bard to be neither Arcane nor Divine (nor Primal). To me, they've always been a Jack-of-all-trades that can cast a little bit of...

    D&D (2024) spells going forward

    Ah yes, nothing says "Wizard" more than tossing around Cure Wounds and summoning Spiritual Guardians /s

    D&D (2024) How should the Artificer be implemented in 1DnD?

    It has 4 subclasses, and they already said that, in the 2024 PHB, all the classes will have 4 subclasses each. So that seems to be on par with their future plans. If they issue 2024 splat books with more subclasses, maybe they'll include some Articifer ones. Who knows what the future holds?

    D&D (2024) Searching and Safely Triggering Traps and Secret Doors

    As far as the time factor goes, I typically go by degree of success. If you beat the DC to discover the trap/secret door by 5 or more, you succeed in half the time.

    D&D (2024) Searching and Safely Triggering Traps and Secret Doors

    The difference between using Investigation and Perception should be a case-by-case basis. A secret door along a wall or a trap in the middle of a corridor should be able to be discovered with Perception only (Active or Passive). But that same secret door hidden behind a tapestry, painting, or...

    D&D (2024) How should the Shaman be implemented in 1DnD?

    If anyone is interested, I put together a little Homebrew version of my suggestion. I took my existing Shaman, which was a fullcaster that conjures totems, and converted it to a Warlock Pact Magic-style caster that summons spirits. It's in a PDF, but I don't know where to post it (this thread...

    D&D (2024) Survey Launch | Player's Handbook Playtest 5 | Unearthed Arcana | D&D

    I'm not going to comment on your entire thread, but I just wanted to mention this one specifically. I always do this when an enemy's AC says 12 (15 with mage armor). I'll typically have them start the combat with the higher AC and subtract a 1st level slot (assuming they had cast the spell...

    What do you think of Cobalt Soul?

    Oops, I meant 4 Elements, not Open Hand (you mentioned that one in your analysis).

    D&D (2024) What do you expect/hope to see in future playtest packets? (+)

    So which one is the trap: Kensai or Open Hand, or both?

    A Pegasus would need to move in an "L" shape. Two tiles forward and one to the side or one tile forward and two to the side.

    D&D (2024) How would you change skills in 5.5e

    Not always. If a secret door is behind a tapestry, the player probably won't be able to spot it just by using Perception to scan around the room (Unless a big gust of wind blows through and moves the tapestry). The player will need to use Investigation to move the tapestry and look behind it...

    D&D (2024) Jeremy Crawford: “We are releasing new editions of the books”

    At one point, there was a brand new thread created with the sole purpose of discussing whether or not OneD&D is a new version, just so that particular topic won't bog down all the other threads. And yet, here we are again . . . This thread (and other similar new ones) could have easily been...
