I would rather see: Battlemaster (played well) - 10 DPR + status effects & unique moves Champion (baseline, as they have no real DPR decision points) - 12 DPR Battlemaster (played poorly) - 8 DPR + status effects & unique moves Now you are gaining unique, controllable, effects and attack...

How about simply one player to another ask him to stop being a jerk and trying to screw your character over? Otherwise thing will quickly become :):):) for tat and the game will fall apart.

It's an interesting idea, but I don't know how much I would enjoy it. I guess since I at least know I would be playing one of my 3 character ideas it wouldn't be so bad. I think it would depend if I was allowed to actually make the character, as in stats, gear, etc. If not, the little...

It's for the better IMO. Say, for example, that the book listed a ring of water walking at 2k gp. Is it the same in a desert campaign? What about a pirate campaign set in a world of islands? Are a +1 sword, dagger, bow, or axe all worth the same amount? If the book says all +1 items are 1k...

"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man." - The Dude We had this same discussion over a tear ago, so I won't drag us through it again. I hope that some day they release a set of optional item pricing guides for you, but myself and many others feel that the current system is...

It is though. Just not to the level that you and some others would like. You have my condolences that they didn't give you a highly polished system right out of the gate. But I think the game as a whole benefits from the more open nature of the current rules. I also don't think that the...

I don't really see this as a problem. If the players want to buy magic items and the DM supports this then they can. The prices are listed in the DMG for the items. It's a valid play style that's supported. What isn't given is exact prices down to the copper. The prices are left in a range...

I don't see why they wouldn't. Hasn't the cleric proved his faith and abilities so far? So, one of the most devout followers asks for a spell with purity of purpose and belief in their heart, why wouldn't the god approve it? Then down the road if they misuse the gift, that should be caught in...

How so? Everyone gets too fixated on the optional story of the warlock selling their soul. The pact could be as simple as you agree to do the patron's laundry once a week for a year in exchange for being taught the secret to power. Also, nothing about the warlock says that you need your...

A lot of these conversations skip over many of the details like consensus and numbers on each side of the table. From authoritarian DM lording his power over his players to demanding special snowflake players that demand that their character wants be met. The reality is usually somewhere in...

I really don't like the casting ability used for attack and damage. It's a personal preference though. Another concern I have with this is that melee classes have to work hard, as in gain multiple levels of a single class, in order to up their melee damage by getting that second attack. 5th...

So, if I understand your point of view correctly.. If the DM doesn't use the optional rule of multiclassing he's a Richard and irrational. If the DM doesn't use the optional rule of feats he's a Richard and irrational. If the DM doesn't use the optional rule of flanking he's a Richard and...

No one is conquering anything. The DM, selected by the players, decides on the world he is running complete with what optional rules he wishes to use. The players at that point can choose to play in that game or not. And if they don't want to then they can select a different DM or find a...

It's your PC, but the DM has the final decision in the rules of the game, meta or not. Multiclassing is an optional rule and the DM chooses not to use it the player has the choice to accept that, find a different game, or volunteer to DM themselves. A player demanding that the DM uses...

It's been a while so I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure the wealth by level table was in the DMG and that didn't stop 3 editions of gamers from demanding thier treasure or complaining when they didn't get it.

One of temp biggest problems, IMO, of more codified item pricing rules is that they tie the hands of the DM. I read it time and time again on these and other forums about DM's who were trying to build thier own world's and stories but their players were up in arms that they didn't have X amount...

I would add "You do not add any modifiers to the damage roll of this attack. If the target is wearing metal armor you have advantage on the attack roll. If the target is reduced to 0 HP by this weapon they are unconscious and and stable".

In your example there, I would rule that ME has to enter the square with AL and then ME draws an AO on ME when ME leaves the area of EN to drag AL out.

Oh. I would definitely like to see an elemental themed paladin.

Sorry, that's what I get for posting just before going to bed.
