Why are saving throws handled differently in this conversion than in the 5e core? Does anyone know why?

Thank you all! This is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for! WOOT!!

I really badly want to run Ravenloft in 5e. I recently bought the 3.5 edition Expedition to Castle Ravenloft but I have a few questions. 1) Would you run the original Ravenloft adventure or Expedition to Castle Ravenloft in 5e and why? 2) Has anyone converted Strahd into 5e yet? I'd really...

So my Druid I just made last night has an AC of 13. It is 15 when he has equipped his wooden shield he carries. So when I wild form into an animal do I lose use of my shield and it thus isn't calculated into my AC anymore? I am just wondering why Magic Initiate-Mage Armor would be useful while...

I like the alt point spread from variant: customizing ability scores better than the default spread from the Adventurers League.

How would you place your point spread for the Adventurers League for your ability scores as a Human (variant build)? I put the 15 into Wisdom and the 14 into Constitution. Now sure how I want to do the rest as a Circle of the Moon Druid.

It is not always powergaming to ask what is efficient. I haven't decided on anything at this point. I'm mostly trying to get an idea of the different capabilities and ways to mix things from other classes. If I were to dip into Rogue after lvl 1 in Ranger about when would you suggest I do so...

I am making a new Adventurers League character four our local 5e game and we are currently lvl 3. I think I am going to likely go with the variant Human and choose Magic Initiate for a feat so I can use Mage Armor while wild shaped. I am going to go likely Circle of the Moon.

How good are Wood Elf longbow archers in 5e? How can you make one be very effective?

Myself and the players in the campaign can asure you he did not.

I got my invoice sent to me today and tracking info from UPS. Mine are expected to arrive on the 16th.

I only came to this forum after I had decided I was probably going to leave the game and yes, I was taken aback and somewhat angry the way he treated me because I dared ask him about the impact of his house rules that none of us were told about before-hand, that were simply sprung on us in the...

This is EXACTLY right. As soon as I asked him about his house rules that was sprung on us in the middle of the first session he got VERY defensive and spurted at me that if I didn't like it I could just re-roll a different class. HE was the aggressive one. Even another player spoke up in my...

There is no rule in RAW about how far apart short rests need to be....only a rule that they are around 1 hr in length.

Absolutely 100% correct. My face-to-face DM doesn't arbitrarily limit short rests. If we are deep in a dungeon it might not be feasible to get one in because there are too many wandering mobs, etc. This is a better way to handle it. We have a Bard in our group that can't even get a musical...

You forget that there was already dialogue WELL before this post you are talking about. DURING the first session is when it all started. When in the middle of the game he announced his house rules and I protested simply stating my concern for how it limits my character he said to me "then you...

You can only take TWO in a day and they must be at least 8 hrs apart.

Here was our latest discussion about it: daddystabz Permalink Quote Edit Delete I would like to please request that any and all house rules be laid out before us here in this thread so nothing will be a surprise for us in-game. I think it is always healthy for a DM to list all his/her house...

I get that but let's not kid ourselves and pretend that it isn't a HUGE part of it? If I wanted to do nothing but tell stories I would read a book.

Not sure how much enjoyment I am going to get from casting the same cantrip every time it is my turn in combat.
