    D&D 5E (2014) Jumping

    Don't forget that movement is used when you jump. So a halfling with a 15 strength who gets his 10 feet of a running start can clear a 15' gap without a roll but that uses up all 25' of his movement. Now if he takes the Dash action on his turn it won't make much of a difference because then his...

    [UPDATED] What's Paizo's "Big News"?

    I imagine a movie or tv series (either on cable or streaming service) is going to be the Big News.

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

    Right but as it sits currently you can do the same with a dagger. By the rules darts are not monk weapons, but Dagger 2 gp 1d4 piercing 1 lb. Finesse, light, thrown (range 20/60)-melee weapon Dart 5 cp 1d4 piercing 1/4 lb. Finesse, thrown (range 20/60)-ranged weapon Both have...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ranger Companion

    The problem with animal companions as mounts is that they are actually less effective than normal mounts. (possibly) A normal pony or riding dog has the same initiative as you, but uses it's own actions to move and can use it's action to Dash, Dodge, or Disengage without any use of actions on...

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

    Why would you say that? I know of Mearls quote it is pointless as it is not a RAW answer to the rules. By his ruling a monk/rogue could sneak attack with his unarmed strikes up until his monk level becomes 11th and then suddenly he can't sneak attack with his unarmed strikes anymore, or you...

    D&D 5E (2014) Necromancer Games--What do you want us to make next?

    As a 1e fan if you are not aware of Dragonsfoot you should become so, http://dragonsfoot.org/ Dragonsfoot.org is a bastion for people who enjoy 1e games, retro clones, and talking about the good old days. It is not my scene, as I prefer the new rules systems mechanically but it is a great...

    D&D 5E (2014) Necromancer Games--What do you want us to make next?

    Hopefully a brief summary of a scene from an adventure they publish. The party finds themselves in the only inn catering to their type of people with empty rooms in the last town before a vast wasteland. The dinner served is overy salty and heavily spiced but the mead is thick and hearty...

    D&D 5E (2014) Enemies in waves

    I have ran only a couple encounters with waves and they went well, what I did was give clues that more waves were coming so while yes there was not a long break to use out of combat heals and regroup they were able to change up tactics and conserve resources. A spell with a minute long buff...

    D&D 5E (2014) What Wizard should I be?

    I like that, take the Lucky feat at level 4 too.

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

    I put down no one, I have no reason to do so and it is not nice to do so. I stated you game with 9 people who can't understand a simple rule, that is a fact not a put down. The Weapons table shows the most common weapons used in the worlds of D&D, their price and weight, the damage they deal...

    D&D 5E (2014) What Wizard should I be?

    Whatever type of wizard you would have the most fun with. I myself would go conjurer build for the sheer enjoyment of "minor conjuration" class ability there is so much fun to be had playing the guy that has the right tool for the job or the crazy thing in his pocket or hat. At 6th level...

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

    You game with a group of 9 people who can't understand that a weapon is either melee or ranged not both, and that the only melee weapon that can be used to make a thrown sneak attack is the dagger and that is because it has the finesse quality not the thrown quality. Why would someone want to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ranger Companion

    "A willing creature that is at least one size larger than you and that has an appropriate anatomy can serve as a mount." I think a wolf has the appropriate anatomy so sure, halfling and gnome rangers can ride their wolf animal companions.

    D&D 5E (2014) Strength bows?

    There is no rule anywhere in the book that says you need any number of hands free or otherwise to reload a weapon. Please show me where the RAW says you need even a single hand free to load a heavy crossbow. It is assumed that because the crossbow uses two hands to use that reloading it does...

    D&D 5E (2014) Improved Find Familiar

    From the MM. Variant Familiar: - pg 63 The quasit can serve another creature as a familiar, forming a telepathic bond with its willing master. While the two are bonded, the master can sense what the quasit senses as long as they are within 1 mile of each other. While the quasit is within 10...

    D&D 5E (2014) Necromancer Games--What do you want us to make next?

    A rogues gallery book would be wonderful. Please not Rappan Athuk, again, there are plenty of those out there for multiple systems that would be easy to convert if someone wanted to run it using 5e. But saying that another mega/super dungeon would be great. With a cool map accessory of jpegs...

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

    During a session go with your gut ruling and just play, stopping for excessive amounts of time or multiple times in a session to look up rules slows down play, destroys any sense of immersion, and isn't very fun. Make a note of any rule you want to look up later, and explain that DM's are...
