For me when I DM, its important that we emphasis to the PCs: 1. Although they are the heroes, but the (D&D) world does not entirely revolve around them. The DM is a referee, story teller and will not 'always' tailor fit the difficulty for them. - if in the story the bubbling green potion on...

No, the horn was not the only clue of the source and thats not the only thing that happened. They knew something was off, but still they did not investigate or do something about it (in time). It was all about getting all the loots quickly and killing the monster while they are heavily debuffed...

Yes hints were dropped in a descriptive form. Yhey were initially curious why only the spell casters were affected. They just focused on the loot and when they noticed something was disabling their spells they still proceeded in fighting it with their simple weapons. When they tried to...

Deadliest was when the party entered a tomb, that they know that once they enter it, after some time it will collapse.Inside is a 50ft tall statue of an ancient god of magic, it has a glowing horn in its head. Then all spell casters felt a chill on their spine, glowing wands became dim, they...

1. When the monster rips their powerful allied NPC like paper. 2. Most of the time, its too late and they are already fighting it when they realize that its way out of their league. Like when half of the party is down, then suddenly they want to try a diplomatic approach. :D 3. Something in...

^This is actually a good plot hook and background story for Warlocks. I don't mind having it as a patron as well. "My young warlock, I can see in your eyes the pride over your boons, hexes and your imp. Then let me tell you about the story of <Insert Name here> - Breaker of chains, ritual...

If you really really need to hit a creature... Relax... Breath In... then wait... then True Strike! Find Traps 2 True Strike 11

Well Booming Blade and Green Flame cantrips needs to compete Eldritch Blast and even do a bit more - with the risk of fighting enemies upclose. This is obviously a fix to make Warlock's Pact of Blade more enticing. Without these new cantrips, Pact of Blade lacks so much in terms of damage...

Yep it even breaks the game further on higher level. Thanks!

Great article! Its an inspiratio, thanks for sharing!

So my warlock has just gained a level. I'm wondering if it will be rule-safe if I multi-class my Warlock into another Warlock Class? The initial skills, spell list may overlap but it will be worth it if my character will be both a Pact of Chain and Book! Although a Warlock 2 / Warlock 2 may...

Wow! Thank you all for the helpful replies! Magic the gathering is a bit saturated in our area (thus we figured that we focus on the boardgame and RPG niche) though i admit that it brings money. Profit do come from food and drinks, the games and rpg are there to attract patrons. We are...

Due to formatting of the original post, I really don't understand the question. Anyway when seeing thru a familiar's eyes, do I use my character's perception or it will still be my imp's perception skill check? I used my imp as a scout but it usually fails checks... so with that I switched to...

Hi All, Just wondering on what are your thoughts on if I start Adventurer's League/be a coordinator/DM be profitable on our boardgame cafe be profitable? I imagine providing the materials, be the coordinator etc. and giving allowance to my stay-in DMs and charging players per session. Assuming...

I appreciate the attempt to explain why it does not cause objects damage. It would be a lot better if this is called Eldritch Curse instead. Eldritch curse + Hex!

In my game, probably not. Isn't casting with finesse or with more controlled effect is harder? But if my player insists, they may explicitly declare to cast the spell in a more controlled manner but it will still take the same level of spell slot, since having more control on the effect is...

When it comes to having a pet for scouting, stealing etc. I think Warlock Pact of chain will do fine alone, it will not need BM Ranger else some skills might be redundant.

I will have to determine my stats but so far here's what I know about my real-life PC... LEVEL: 10 RACE: Human ALIGNMENT: Lawful Good BACKGROUND: The happy geek PATRON: THE FIANCEE - My will, gold and how many spells I can cast per day are currently bounded with my patron the fiancee -...

This. And This. Why are we even debating this or is this a question..? There are a lot of grey areas but I do not think that this scenario is included.

Simpler yet fun is better, so 5e. I appreciate that D&D evolves to be leaner as I grow 'old'. If I was younger, sure I can crunch numbers, tweak stats all day but now not so much due to increasing responsibilities or tasks that demand my time. If I can have everything from the book, without...
