    Unearthed Arcana Best use for Cartographer's maps?

    What's the best spells and features to use with the Cartographer's maps (I.e. though walls/fog). Shadow Monk seems like it could work well. Being able to cast buffs on him while they are in darkness. Fog Cloud on a fighter with blind fighting is another option. But is there better options...

    D&D Launches New Eberron-Themed Playtest With Dragonmarked Feats

    Bards are also support, yes. But they can't teleport every turn. Or use bardic inspiration though walls. Though you may have missed the fact that the Cartographer can give out maps to the Bard and Rogue, and then the bard can then use Bardic Inspiration though walls, and the rogue still gets...

    D&D (2024) Removing Concentration

    Sickening radiance + wall of force = kill nearly anything. Suggestion lasts longer and is only a level 2 slot. "Run as far away as you can", for 8 hours, will mostly do the same thing. Plus all the other effects.

    D&D Launches New Eberron-Themed Playtest With Dragonmarked Feats

    Sounds less like a feat, and more like just species feature. I.e. Warforged Integrated Components: you can spend a week attaching equipment to yourself. Doing so makes it impossible to disarm.

    Advantage to navigate and find secret passages using Survival or Investigation. Including the Maze spell.

    D&D Launches New Eberron-Themed Playtest With Dragonmarked Feats

    Might be a bit too much, and don't really want to replace anything, but.. I feel like a Cartographer should give a boost (advantage?) In Investigation checks to map holders.

    They said they where background feats in the video.

    D&D Launches New Eberron-Themed Playtest With Dragonmarked Feats

    There is no "4th level" prerequisite for the feats. So I do expect they are background feats.

    D&D Launches New Eberron-Themed Playtest With Dragonmarked Feats

    Well, it kind of sort of makes sense with the free Fairy Fire and otherwise being a support caster. If you squint. Again, not really going to complain too hard about it.

    D&D Launches New Eberron-Themed Playtest With Dragonmarked Feats

    It is about group buffs. That's what a cartographer does IRL. Makes stuff to help other people. Cast free Fairy Fire, teleport away from opportunity attacks, and shoot a +1 crossbow with Truestrike and advantage. Healing Word when an ally goes down even in the fog.

    Creating mundane looks perfect now, Int items until you take a long rest (i.e. bed rolls work). Also Mending. All my artificers will be taking manifold tool. Not always creating it, but crafting is useful now. And having access to all crafting is great. Being able to swap between goggles of...

    D&D (2024) Its The Same Game Right? 5.0 Options in 5.5

    I wouldn't say many. Probably less than the number of things errata'd. And you can add Shepard druids to that list.

    D&D (2024) Its The Same Game Right? 5.0 Options in 5.5

    PHB2 12 new classes with 4 new subclasses each. Can be (and we have) played along side any of the PHB1 classes without any issues. Not very original new classes. But it's not any more game changing than adding in Artificers or whatever.
