    Advantage & Disadvantage - Looking for a synopsis

    Weird, I must've been using the "5e method" for skill checks with 3.5 from the very start. I never called for a player to roll any dice, not just skills, unless there was some kind of consequence or need to roll dice. If a player wanted to pick a lock and had all the time in the world with no...

    Resonance, Potency, & Potions: A Look At Magic Items in Pathfinder 2

    What's to stop a player from hiring a dozen clerics and let the clerics use their RP for wands of CLW to top off the party? [emoji14] Almost sounds like wands just need to be axed for good, an idea I'm not opposed to. And I'm onboard for resonance but keeping charges and X/day abilities seems...

    A Small Glance at PF2's Equip & Armour

    The runes remind me of the augment crystals from the Magic Item Compendium for 3.5. I think those crystals attach to a weapon and impart magical abilites. I can't remember if it gave +X or just special abilities like Flaming. Could be both. Been a while since I've read that. But those were some...

    D&D 5E Mordenkainens starting to show up in the wild?

    Man, here I was hoping someone would spill some beans on contents of the book but instead it's people arguing about halfling proportions... -_-

    Pathfinder 2 Playtest Preorders, Podcasts, & "Pathfinder 1.5"

    I'm hoping PF2 is crunchy enough for players during play in all modes like combat and exploration, and meaningful decisions for character growth, but light for the DM to run. I love DMing 5e, it runs smooth, but as a player I don't feel like there's much decision points. But the inverse is true...

    Pathfinder 2E Paizo Announces Pathfinder 2nd Edition!

    Excellent news​. Pathfinder really needed a new edition. It was a bloated mess bolted onto the animated corpse of 3.5. Initially I was very happy when Pathfinder was touting backwards compatibility to my plethora of 3.5 books as one of it's selling points. But overtime I realized that might have...

    The Monetization of D&D Play

    I see a DM just like any other player at the table. It's more work, sure, but we're all here to contribute to a great gaming night. We're all here for the same enterainment. But I can see some DMs pay for excellent players. I can imagine a world where an excellent DM pays $10 for each of his or...

    D&D 5E So Shadar-Kai are now a subrace of elves: Huh?

    I've heard that when a designer sneezes a new elf subrace is born. But to change something into an elf? That must've been one powerful sneeze, the type that makes you go cross-eyed for a bit afterwards. ;) Sent from my [device_name] using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Mearls' "Firing" tweet

    Mearls is right on point. Seriously, people questioning a new hire because she's a woman and doubting her "credentials"? That toxic BS should never be tolerated. We shouldn't be tolerant of intolerant toxicity. Find another game and take your BS with you. Sent from my [device_name] using EN...

    7th Sea Goes East...with the Khitai Kickstarter

    This looks quite good. It seems to take the inspiration with purpose instead of adding a dash of "Oriental flavor" to fantasy haphazardly. What other Asian cultures are represented besides the big one like Japanese​ and Chinese? Maybe Korean, Vietnamese, Indian? :) Sent from my Nexus 5X using...

    Pre-Order DLC comes to D&D with Xanathar's Guide to Everything

    Pre-order bonuses. Not of fan of them. If the bonus is a cosmetic (for games btw) I don't care if I miss out. But for actual content for the game? That's just wrong tying that up and being inaccessible for people who get the game at later date. But for this particular instance it's not even...

    D&D 5E Tome of Beasts 5E

    From my understanding the monsters are tougher than MM monsters. How do the monsters stack up to a 3 man party? Are they a bit too tough for such a small group of the same level? Sent from my Nexus 5X using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Are You Planning on Subscribing to D&D Beyond

    Is WotC smart enough to bundle codes with accompanying hard covers if anything to get people on the platform? Would be useful for maybe just the PHB. A door buster of sorts. Steam does the same offering DoTa 2 and Team Fortress 2 for free because it's more valuable to people to install the...

    D&D 5E You lads ever play 5e... on weed?

    No, I don't smoke but I DM'd a 5e session where my friends were smoking weed and all of us were drinking heavily. It was goofy and the game got out of hand a lot, but we had a lot of fun. Hmm... I should get the group back together again. ;) Sent from my Nexus 5X using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Mike Mearls on Settings

    Meh, I rather not see yet another bog standard fantasy setting #65862. Give us something different for once. Or at least return to some beloved, but often neglected settings like Planescape. Sent from my Nexus 5X using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Could Paizo go 5e?

    The one thing I miss when switching for PF to 5e was Paizo quality adventures. That and crunch (5e atm, is a bit light of that front). Even if it were to be a side thing, seeing Paizo stuff for 5e would be awesome.

    New SCAG Info: Someone Got The Book

    I was considering on canceling my pre-order to save some money, but I'm pleased to see what's being spoiled. I'm glad for threads like these. I like to know what I'm getting into, I don't like buying blind if I can help it. As someone who's buying this largely for the mechanics and considering...

    [UPDATE: NOW LIVE] TOME OF BEASTS Preview - A 5E Monster Book from the Kobolds!

    That's some cool stuff. :D grrr... I want to back this, but $50 is a lot IMO. Since it's going to get funding I might wait for it to show up on Amazon. hmm... Also, anyone else think it's odd that you use Dex to resist the Void Dragon's gravity breath weapon? I think Strength would be a better...
