Glad to see modrons getting love once again in 5e. I hated that 4e all but swept them under the rug. As for Primus, being the ruler of an entire plane seems like greater god territory to me.

After the party tracked a group of arsonists from Neverwinter's "safe" district into the Scar area (a monster-infested ruin), their quarry split up. One of the trails ended at a rather large bloodstain and a boot with a foot in it (and a bulette burrow). Their stomping around was enough to...

in 2e PHB spell entries, Saving Throw: Neg means "negates" not "negative" much to the chagrin of the wizard's player. In either 1e or basic D&D as kids we thought "Turn Undead" meant turn into one, of the type that the cleric was high enough level to turn.

Sorry I didn't have time to read the thread but I'm sure that Fragarach and the other Final Word swords have perfectly fine balance. Aren't they all at least +2 weapons? I don't even see why this is an issue.

I saw this yesterday as well, and thought it was a great introduction for people who might be put off by the pasty nerd reputation the game has among some.

Yeah I seem to find myself casting hypnotic pattern every fight. Being able to knock out a ranged enemy or two for most of the fight is pretty handy.

There are copious amounts of materials available online and in FR sourcebooks already, so IMO a summary, which while helpful, would be a secondary concern.

"Rulings Over Rules" in this case. The spell effect is the attacker. Here's another one: Does it make sense for someone with greater invisibility to get advantage on their spiritual weapon's attacks? I say no. Invisibility specifically excludes things the target isn't wearing or carrying, so...

So this ruling means you can't throw your light offhand weapon (or shoot your offhand hand crossbow) as a bonus action and then close with an enemy to melee them with your attack action? Stupid ruling is stupid and will be ignored.

Can we have an explanatory video where the cartoon centaur exclaims "I'm a monstrosity!" please?

I never paid attention to those guidelines, and chances are you'd be OK ignoring them as well. If the party is just exploring a ruin with nothing pressing them for time, there's no reason they shouldn't be as safe as possible, and trying to artificially boost encounter numbers is silly. On the...

Use the fog cloud to divide your enemies while your group concentrates on one half of them. If the other half wastes a few rounds moving to an improved position, it's worth it.

Abi Dalzim's Horrid Kilting: Removes all pantaloons and breechcloth within a 60' radius and replaces them with ill-fitting, drafty kilts. Permanent.

Hatnap: Enlarges a hat to enormous size so that the party can rest safely within its confines. Chard Monster: Conjures an enormous leafy green shambling mound that is rich in vitamin A, K, and C. Yawn: Immediately ends your concentration, and then next round interrupts the target's...

Make it a gnome.

Thread necro but hey it's an evergreen topic. I usually let druids find/make some wyvern or hydra scale armor that's equivalent to half plate by level 5-7. Bonus if they can find a suitable creature and save on materials.

Still call it bloodied. In fact we still usually use the terms "standard actions," "minor actions," and "healing surges" even though I think by now we've been playing 5th longer than 4th now. Several of the players still think standing up provokes OA and you can't use reactions on your turn...

Drizzt I don't have any problem with. It's Salvatore's many pun and cringey character names that set my teeth on edge.

It seems to me if you want to be a rogue that's more focused on combat than skills, you spend most of your levels on the fighter class.
