    D&D 5E xanathar's guide to everything class options thread

    for everyone complaining about power surge for war wizards, I think we should have an offical errata that changes it from counterspell and dispel magic to sucessful save against magic or missed by a spell attack. I am running it as that in my games.

    Xanathar's Guide To Everything Reviewed

    The only real complaint I have with this book is pretty unfair: I wish they had updated the SCAG subclasses so they wouldn't be as terrible, some of them are fine though. Mastermind and storm sorc are rather bad.

    D&D 5E xanathar's guide to everything class options thread

    This combo actually does not work, so removed. In return for wasting everyones time, I want us all to do two things: 1. yell loudly at WotC to fix the ranger already 2.imagine xanathar as the president of the united states.

    D&D 5E Rants Regarding the Corporate Castration of our Beloved Hobby

    I personally never used orcpub, but wizards of the coast is seriously overstepping here. Money is very tight in the united states,a lot of people just can't afford to drop 50$ on a book. If the consumer doesn't want to pay for something, they won't and they never will. I only toss money at...

    D&D 5E xanathar's guide to everything class options thread

    also bear in mind, the book just came out yesterday. Things like this happen, I am still not sure HOW they still happen since WotC should have a literal army of proofreaders/loyal fans who are OCD about this stuff to fix these errors but oh well. One thing I like quite a bit is that the...

    D&D 5E xanathar's guide to everything class options thread

    This is a thread to discuss your first impressions and thoughts on the new archetypes in the newest book. Personally, looking over the cavalier I am floored by how well they pulled it off, they somehow managed to NOT focus solely on mounted combat and instead a class that just works wonders for...

    D&D 5E Fifth Age: A hard science fiction 5e conversion

    Seems rather good so far, other than the over reliance on feats. Will definitely have to try it out.

    D&D 5E Xanathar's Guide to Everything: Spells

    I hope they do something about frostbite, that spell is bananas. Ray of frost is just a joke right now. I changed the damage type to acid and that definitely made it more palatable. It is now called ray of acid and the slowing effect is because caustic gunk sticks to the target.

    D&D 5E [Xanathar's Guide] What is your first PC you're gonna make?

    One of my players is planning on a human celestial warlock, a crusty old man who is probably half insane due to the fact he poked around in things he shouldn't have been poking around in, got himself quasi-divine powers and the ability to heal other people. The other is a human wizard warmage...

    D&D 5E Converting pathfinder adventure paths to 5e

    I do not handle the math aspects of the game too well. I can add and subtract easily but past that....it becomes sketchy, I mostly just stick to easy to convert monsters so I don't have to have someone else doing math for me.

    D&D 5E Question about feats in 5e.

    I am not a discipline teacher. I just have followed one motto for a very long time when running D&D games and it hasn't failed yet: balance before fun. Any game can be fun, not every game can be perfectly balanced. Cutting feats out of the equation means one less tool to break the game and one...

    D&D 5E Question about feats in 5e.

    This thread was an error, I apologise. I was just fustrated at the nonstop mention of feats everywhere.

    D&D 5E Question about feats in 5e.

    Why does it seem like everyone assumes feats are included in most games? Why do all the guides assume the gamemaster would allow such a terrible mechanic into their games? I have banned feats from my game and will never lift that ban, the mechanic was awful in 3.5 and 4e, so why don't we just...

    D&D 5E GMs of EN World: What player behavior annoys you the most?

    Actually no. He was still pretty new and wanted to play something "awesome" that translated to a tempest cleric. He insisted on never preparing healing spells and using a greatclub, as well as hide armor. The other players were curious on this decision and tried to show him that his character...

    D&D 5E GMs of EN World: What player behavior annoys you the most?

    Everyone is human, we each understand things differently, I would rather make the intentions clear that the bloodstain leads to the door that has something foul smelling behind it. I don't want to mistakenly confuse my players into thinking that the bloodstain leads to another door or that a...

    D&D 5E GMs of EN World: What player behavior annoys you the most?

    Mostly people who bring characters based off of media to my table. I don't ask for much, I just want an original character that isn't a clone of some anime character or a superhero knockoff. The moment someone brings a character to my table like that, I just kick them out for good. I gave up...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana October 2017: Fiendish Options

    these are pretty awesome, Just since we are using the pathfinder universe we just renamed them and modified them to fit our world. Zariel is now moloch and grants legacy of malbolge: blade ward as a cantrip, absorb elements as the first spell (one a day, at second level) and heat metal as the...

    D&D 5E Converting pathfinder adventure paths to 5e

    Curse of the crimson throne is rather easy to convert. At least as far as I have gotten. Since most of the enemies are NPCs, I just found one that was similiar in either volos or the monster manual. It was very easy to do. I am planning on running it for my group when xanathars guide to...

    D&D 5E Converting pathfinder adventure paths to 5e

    This is something I have started doing, curse of the crimson throne converts almost seamlessly to 5e, however rise of the runelords has proven to be a headache and a half to convert. Has anyone else done this?

    D&D 5E alternatives to Nature domain?

    the nature domain, despite never having been used in my group, nor have we seen a druid. Irritated me to the core. I took away their heavy armor proficency and gave them druidic weapon proficency* I have not seen anything terribly wrong with the druid in my glance over of the class. Other than...
