I agree with you on the whole, but out of those you mentioned only Magic Jar is really that much of an issue unless the party is up against unintelligent or prepared foes. A good GM would never have the enemies exist in stasis until the party decides to act. On top of this enemies have access...

:S that is expensive for the results it gives. Topping that the controls look really under developed.

That is another point that is worth bringing up. If players get used to you giving them out of system advantages when it comes to challenging combats they may feel cheated or harassed if you decide to play by the rules or play a monster smarter in the future.

She would just teleport out of it. A CR 14 or 15 charisma save isn't that difficult to escape for something with a +10 to charisma. Random chance is always in play, but still. The cost associated that was given was also too low. And really, high level characters don't have that sort of power...

How did they find out it was a Marilith and specifically know how to summon the right one? How did they summon it? Why didn't she know they conspiring? Why didn't she have anything in place to hinder, protect or at least warn her of things like this?( 800gp is not a big barrier) Where were her...

I absolutely love the strange and the kickstarter box set for numenera is one of the best value purchases around. Especially now that they offer decent shipping for those of us in Australia (from their EU shipping hub) This was a major sticking point for me in the past, Cost me as much as the...

It depends on your DM, your party comp and how often you attempt to jump. For a lightfoot halfling rogue for instance, great little boots until you find something better that requires attunement. Sticking them on the packmule muscular half orc / dwarf you brought to safely carry around the...

You forgot Int to initiative. It is a small bonus but allows for stupid amounts of stat dumping, even more for people who roll up characters. I like the concepts presented here. But DAMN lore wizard is EASILY the single most powerful wizard in the game. - Four expertise in magical knowledge...

Interested but cautious. I like the world, I like the game. But the mechanics don't really feel solid enough for a pnp game in my opinion. So even if they try to adapt it rather than work from the ground up I am not really sure how I will feel about it as a whole. Ultimately it is going to be...

Thanks, it really is every thread. I don't comment often and only created an account recently despite having viewed the site for years... but damn... boy is it tiring to read through. Great post. A lot of the argument is really rooted in perspective and preference really, i like that you are...

Yes... In the same UA actually. We got one warlock type and one wizard type. One of them was called the seeker or something. It was the UA right before the new new ranger

Very cool. Glad for them, while there is a bit of anti Roll20 stuff floating around on the smiteworks forums from time to time I do like the community and developers in general. As someone who has spent 6 months with fantasy grounds 5e and has spent 3 years on roll20 (various systems, started...

So? you just listed two motivations, can you explain why someone cannot crush enemies and break their will be doing it because they are "doing the best they can to help others according to their needs" or acting within their conscience and with little regard to what others expect but with...

I disagree, it matches chaotic good and neutral good fairly well as well as lawful neutral. Good is the intent behind action and these could be the views of a pragmatist. Also as for Chaosmancer's response. There have been lots of historic figures that have taken a pragmatic or harsh approach...

I wish people would stop talking about Conquest as if it has to be evil. Heck even Treachery doesn't have to be evil it can be an example of a coward paladin that has fallen from their ways or become disillusioned. Admittedly Treachery mechanically is a bit harder to explain. But nothing out of...

Oh you mean that these MINOR changes will alter bounded accuracy limits and majorly change class balance, feat balance and the revamped spellcaster balance systems that are BAKED into the system? No? Then it is fine, it may not be for everyone but the concept is to make these rarer and DM...

Fantasy Grounds has spilled the beans on which races get playable stats They are: Aasimar Bugbear Firbolg Goblin Goliath Hobgoblin Kenku Kobold Lizardfolk Orc Tabaxi Triton Yuan-ti Pureblood

Yeah, but let's be serious for a moment here. I can run programs that were designed for computers in the 80's... I can virtual machine nearly anything. And even then barring some horrible event I can even build computers to run programs from that time period. As long as someone has their files...

Eh this hasn't ever been a new thing. I mean crap, bucklers that STRAP onto arms are just stupid, 5e actually has good weights for most of it's equipment vs 3.5 for instance, but also has god awful weight on that chainmail. The way armor works, the way you recover after a rest and so on. And...

What math? it is a horror adventure that is meant to be crushing and overwhelming. That is the whole point of it... I mean the party can come across 3 level 5 night hags at level 3. And that isn't counting the three Dretch that can join the fight. The entire adventure is like that...
