    D&D 5E (2014) Any old D&D adventures with non-bad guy dragons?

    Gorgoldans's Gauntlet is from Dungeon Magazine issue #86, May/June 2001 issue. An interesting setting someone described to me once was a world where the dragons were the nobility, all dragons could polymorph and take the shape of humanoids no matter type, so many random npc's patrons and...

    D&D 5E (2014) What's the point of gold?

    DMG pg 126-131 has a section of recurring expenses, stuff like running a business, maintaining a keep, crafting magic items, training costs for leveling, building strongholds, and carousing. There are charts and suggestions but a lot of it is vague and more like guidelines. Besides all of that...

    D&D 5E (2014) Any reason to go Melee vs. Stay ranged as a Rogue?

    With using your bonus action to disengage, lets you get in and out of melee combat and using hit and run tactics. The mobility feat lets you move around without provoking AoO easy enough too, and that will let you use your bonus action make an off hand attack and thus getting a second chance to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Vicious Mockery: the Mockings

    Well you have the classic Yo mama jokes, "Yo mama so fat she makes a kraken look like a tiny creature" "Yo mama so ugly trolls give her beauty advice" "Yo mama so stanky troglodytes recoil from her stench." then there are the Holy Grail references, "I fart in your general direction!" "Your...

    D&D 5E (2014) Can a Battlemaster pickup a disarmed weapon as part of his action?

    I could see where interacting with an object in the same square as another creature would be an issue. Different situation, a creature is standing next to a lever that or pull rope, if you play with grid maps this object is in the same square as an enemy creature. How does the player's...

    D&D 5E (2014) Can a Battlemaster pickup a disarmed weapon as part of his action?

    If the battlemaster has a free hand I see no reason in disallowing it, you could even flavor it is a catch of the weapon mid air. I haven't seen a single weapon no shield fighter at my table yet, but the battlemaster in one of my games disarm followed by a push then stood on his opponents...

    D&D 5E (2014) I thought that I had seen a Range limit to the sneak attack with the Ranged Weapon, 30 feet

    No a thrown melee weapon is still a melee weapon, a thrown ranged weapon is a ranged weapon. Properties like thrown or reach might change the fact that a weapon can be used at a distance greater than 5' but neither changes the weapon type. By your logic a whip, halberd, or lance is a ranged...

    D&D 5E (2014) I thought that I had seen a Range limit to the sneak attack with the Ranged Weapon, 30 feet

    It says that there are only two types of weapons either melee or ranged. A dart is a thrown ranged weapon, a dagger is a melee weapon that can be thrown there is a difference. The Weapons table shows the most common weapons used in the worlds of D&D, their price and weight, the damage they...

    D&D 5E (2014) Does "Unarmoured Defense" work with Druids who are shapechanged?

    Use the beast form's AC or Unarmored Defense AC whichever is higher, remember the Dexterity score changes so your Unarmored Defense AC changes too. Example: Brown Bear has an AC of 11, Dex/Wis 16 monk/druid in human form has an AC of 16, in bear form because his Dex lowers to 10(+0) his...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is this guy legally publishing 5e stuff?

    Yeah good catch, I downloaded one of the pay what you want items for 0.00 and there is no OGL included and it use Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition repeatedly without any trademark acknowledgments. The cover art images all look like things that show up on google image searches. I don't know what...

    D&D 5E (2014) What's PEACH have to do with Paladins?

    I am a 16 or 24 box of colors kind of guy, to me it is a shade of pink. But when I google fuchsia and mauve I also see shades of pink.

    D&D 5E (2014) I thought that I had seen a Range limit to the sneak attack with the Ranged Weapon, 30 feet

    It has been explained to you multiple times that there are "ranged attacks", "ranged weapon attacks", and "ranged weapons" these things are different things. Not all ranged attacks are ranged weapon attacks, many spells for instance. Not all ranged weapon attacks are made with ranged weapons...

    Much like fortune cookie fortunes many of these are way funnier if you add "...in bed" at the end of them.

    D&D 5E (2014) I thought that I had seen a Range limit to the sneak attack with the Ranged Weapon, 30 feet

    From the players handbook, a weapon is either melee or ranged. A trebuchet is obviously not a melee weapon, therefore it must be a ranged weapon. A sneak attack must be made with a ranged weapon or a weapon with the finesse quality. Now, not all "ranged weapon attacks" which all siege weapons...

    D&D 5E (2014) Question: Am I treating this situation correctly?

    Mike's answers are not the greatest, he goes with his gut more than rules as written. His answer is even "yes - it might feel unintuitive for the bonus damage, but it doesn't break anything", why does it feel unintuitive for the bonus damage, because a dagger is not ranged weapon. You would be...
