It’s worth pointing out that his MCU uniform includes a sidearm. Whether or not he ever uses it in the show, it’s part of the image the government is selling in the new Captain America. Which is probably pretty much the same image they tried to sell with the old one.

True. Correct. Yes, IF no spell (of any kind) has been cast or will be cast in the turn as a bonus action. Note that you could also cast a spell as a reaction. Most people don’t realize that the actual limitation in the rules is predicated on casting a bonus-action spell. “A spell cast with...

Black Widow stopped serving in the KGB when she was recruited into SHIELD (presumably). Neither she nor Hawkeye are in SHIELD anymore, because there is no SHIELD anymore (assuming Agents of SHIELD is not canon). Additionally, both are in violation of the Sokovia Accords by the end of Civil...

Really? The cantrips alone are worth a feat, especially for melee attackers. Shield + Booming Blade + any other cantrip from the wizard list is a great set for any flavor of melee rogue and most other martials, too (not barbarians, obviously). Bless + Guidance + any other cantrip from the...

Well, the short rest refresh effectively doubles or triples the ki. But, since you mention it, fey touched (and similar feats) are (to my mind) generally much better than the various adept feats, specifically because of the half-ASIs. The reason Dual Wielder isn’t a good option is because: • it...

That makes no sense. Readied actions use your reaction and so does the casting time of counterspell (which has a specific trigger that does not require a readied action). You can’t use a reaction to decipher a spell and then also cast counterspell in the same turn! The rules forbid it...

That looks pretty good. 3 ki is probably a bit much, though, compared with martial adept or metamagic adept, which don’t come with AC bonuses. 2 ki seems better. Now that I’m thinking of it, that AC bonus makes this feat a no-brainer for the monk. It is definitely better than a Dex ASI for...

Of course, if the intent is for it to be able to stack with other AC sources, that’s doable, but half proficiency would be better. A +1 to +3 AC is almost worth a feat on its own.

It would need to be a base AC of 10 + Proficiency so it couldn’t stack with other sources. Maxes at AC 22 by level 17 (well, 23 with a Manual of Quickness of Action), which isn’t that bad compared to magic armors and shields.

If you add prof to AC with light armor, that’s a no-brainer for light-armor classes. It’s huge!

Also, the new helicarriers have integrated Stark technology in them. Tony knows about their development. What he doesn’t know is that they are a threat. By the time he finds out HYDRA has taken over, Cap, Black Widow, and Falcon have probably already dealt with the problem.

Not all thrown weapons are melee weapons. Darts and nets aren’t.

The wording is pretty explicit, here: The thrown property does not turn a melee weapon into a thrown weapon, it mearly allows you to make a ranged attack by throwing it, and, additionally, if it is a melee weapon, you use Str for the attack and damage rolls. This last part is mandatory...

Well, kind of. As the director explicitly said in that Kevin Smith/Marc Bernardin podcast (and, in retrospect, I can’t believe I missed it while viewing), Wanda progresses through the five stages of grief during the show – meaning she had to end up at acceptance. But that’s grief over The...

Jessica Jones season 1?

But warlocks don’t use or need intelligence. Would you not allow a PC warlock with a 6 intelligence?

Worth keeping in mind that they undoubtedly are referring to the historical definition of “necromancy” (as opposed to the modern fantasy definition). That being, communicating with the dead (probably through seances, which were very popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries). In D&D, that...

Loved that book and movie as a kid! That faceless man was great inspiration for future creepy D&D villains – although I’m only now remembering it.

Which, given Serini’s specific rewording, suggests she was scrying the throne-room as it happened.

The reason he was a cartoonish villain who shoots at children* is because he has been a cartoonishly obvious villain to begin with. And he needed to be, so that the Agnes’s insidious villainy could sneak up on any viewer who didn’t already assume she was Agatha Harkness (or thought she might not...
