    D&D 5E DnD Beyond Issue - entire library gone?!

    Earlier today I couldn't access DnD Beyond. I got directed to a page saying DnD Beyond was undergoing some maintenance. The site is back up. However, I have lost access to everything that I had purchased and it in fact no longer shows up in "My Library." Is anyone else having this issue? Is...

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    How much is this actually the case though? They got rid of spell slots, but most magic is still Spellcasting. Now the archmage's Arcane Burst doesn't specifically call itself spell (though as DM I would still rule it that way), but everything else, and everything of relevance, is a spell...

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    I just wanted to point out that the US Chess Federation’s Official Rules of Chess, V 7th Edition, 1-1-24 is 144 pages long! The link is to a PDF of the rules. I generally know how to play chess, but I have no idea what that PDF covers to need 144 pages. I also know that there are lot of/some...

    PaizoCon 2025 Keynote Recap

    Thank you for the reply and link! I did find it on the Archives after I posted that (but not peoples thoughts). I think there are some interesting ideas that I might steal, but I am unfamiliar with how they might interact with the rest of the PF2 system.

    RPG CROWDFUNDING NEWS – World's Largest Dungeon, Cosmic Dark, Neon City Outlaws, and more

    I couldn't find it either. Kickstarter requires an anticipated delivery date (or at least did) when you set up your page. I am not nearly as familiar with Backerkit, but if it also required on that platform it is much harder to find!

    RPG CROWDFUNDING NEWS – World's Largest Dungeon, Cosmic Dark, Neon City Outlaws, and more

    I agree, but those don't require a separate pamphlet IMO. Most of those items are ease of play changes not necessarily power upgrades (though some can give a little bump). I will note that they said in the Backerkit FAQ that they are making encounters more challenging. That could include...

    PaizoCon 2025 Keynote Recap

    I see the mention of Mythic rules in the write-up. I had completely forgotten PF2 was going to have mythic rules. Has anyone used them? Are they any good? Are they different than the PF1 mythic rules?

    RPG CROWDFUNDING NEWS – World's Largest Dungeon, Cosmic Dark, Neon City Outlaws, and more

    This is inaccurate too. Most monsters are the same challenge between 2014 & 2024 (I know, I have done a lot of checking on this front). Some of the lower CR monsters actually dropped in power. Now, at higher CRs, around CR 17+ there definitely is an increase in power from 2014 to 2024 monsters...

    RPG CROWDFUNDING NEWS – World's Largest Dungeon, Cosmic Dark, Neon City Outlaws, and more

    I have been playing with mixed 2014 and 2024 material since the playtest. It is not a noticeable issue at our table. If you read the 5e forums here then you will see that a lot of people who are actually playing the game agree - there is not a lot of difference between 2014 & 2024 PCs. Pretty...

    RPG CROWDFUNDING NEWS – World's Largest Dungeon, Cosmic Dark, Neon City Outlaws, and more

    I think you are misunderstanding. It has little to do with the content. It is a time issue. I don't have the time or energy to investigate and play multiple systems. If I was playing PF2e or OSR or Fate or whatever, it would be the same reaction. I just don't have time for more than one system...

    RPG CROWDFUNDING NEWS – World's Largest Dungeon, Cosmic Dark, Neon City Outlaws, and more

    This the only comment in their FAQ: "World's Largest Dungeon has been in development for over 18 months, and is developed for Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition (2014). We will issue a free 2024 Conversion Guide PDF to all backers. This PDF will include guidance to beef up the encounters and bosses...

    RPG CROWDFUNDING NEWS – World's Largest Dungeon, Cosmic Dark, Neon City Outlaws, and more

    I am not really interested in that product, but the conversion packet interests me in that I find it an odd choice. There really should be a need to include one at all. The only thing I can think of is possibly adding origin feats to new classes? Does the book even have new classes, isn't it an...

    That seems to be the 5e24 approach as well!

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    I don't think everything being magic needs to be a stumbling block, that is true with or without the Weave. I am sure there are more creative ways to handle it, but you could just say how psions access magic (the Weave or whatever you want to call it) doesn't defile, but how the arcane casters...

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    I guess I just don't see the need to address it. Its absence from 2024 books (and likely all non-setting books moving forward) does address the issue as far as I am concerned. I mean my games simple don't hang on every word and interpretation from WotC and I can't imagine many really do.

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    First, I specifically mentioned the 5e24 rules in my post, so yes that is what I was talking about. If you don't find it relevant they specifically took out the language about the Weave than there is nothing I an see other than I disagree. 5e24 and 5e14 are one system/edition, but that doesn't...

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    You must be speaking of the 2014 PHB, because it is not in the 2024 one (pg 205 is a page of Feats in the 2024 PHB). As my post noted I was talking about the 5e24 rules.
