Wow, I'm so happy that they listened to what appears to be 0% of the critiques of the Theurge Wizard, and then made a new tradition that looks almost entirely useless at surface-level compared to every other tradition. This is the first UA I think I've genuinely despised in every way.

I actually love the idea of the patron-specific weapon invocations, but I do think that 2d8 flat damage per spell level is a bit much for nova damage. It steps on the Paladin's toes a bit - not that that's a bad thing, I'm not a big fan of how powerful it is - but it should at least be a bit...

The Favored Soul is the most disappointing archetype to come out of these yet. Though I speak as someone who has looked on most of these archetypes with a favorable light. The fact that they gutted everything that made the test archetype both fun and good (and similar to the original 3.5 class...

I made a custom gunslinger archetype for a player of mine just this summer that had that same ability - Bonus damage for not moving during a round. I think the ignoring cover benefit is redundant in a world where everyone who has this archetype is going to take the sharpshooter feat. Trading...

Given the trend between this week's and last 's, I would guess that this UA a week deal will last 12-13 weeks; one for each class to chum the waters with new archetypes, with that 15th level mystic playtest that was mentioned when the news first came out included towards the end. Hopefully it...

Player's Handbook 2: Player's Handbook-ier

It did indeed. I'm pretty sure it was in the PHB2. I actually kind of enjoy looking for old art from previous editions- it's like a small nostalgia trip.

Chances are they're putting it to print because it was only in the EEPC thus far, and this'd be the first physical release it comes in. The Genasi was the only race from that that made it into Princes itself, and Deep Gnomes came later on in the Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide. Aarakocra will...

I'll be the first (and hopefully only) one to say this, but that M:tG character in the banner isn't Jace Beleren, it's a man named Gideon Jura. Not to be nitpicky, but hopefully you catch it before other Magic fans poke their head in to read the article.

Are you saying that most of the older adventures and modules do this? Because this occurs frequently in the newest 5e adventure book, Storm King's Thunder. Most of the big dungeons have charts with a shorthand description of what's in each room and then goes into detail about what monsters will...

Pretty sure Matt Mercer said on Twitter that Critical Role will still be available for free on Youtube. https://twitter.com/matthewmercer/status/781187993792950273

Well, Orcus is $75 and is larger in base size but smaller in height, his saving grace being that he might be rather hollow on the inside. Demogorgon is likely to be as valuable as that if not moreso - their priciest miniatures easily reach $90.

Is this book going to have a WPN advanced release? Do ALL D&D books have an advanced release? I want to know if I can get this at my FLGS in two weeks or if I should order it off of Amazon to get it cheaper.

Both, honestly. I don't mind variant rules, I loved most of the ones in the DMG (Especially proficiency dice, just like the old playtests), but these ones change things that either don't need to be changed or change them in a way that doesn't do anything, less alone their intended use. Variant...

Absolutely can't wait to trash this UA in the next survey.

I don't think there's a single GF9 product that comes either assembled or painted. Not saying you have no reason to be uninterested, but if you've seen GF9 products before then there should be no surprise in that respect. That said, I love it. It's a beast of a model with a wonderful sculpt to...

One question; Are Warlocks naturally proficient with Short Swords? I ask because I made a magic item for Warlocks that's normally a dagger until a Warlock picks it up, then it becomes a Short Sword. I wanted to know if I either have to make the item grant proficiency with it or if Warlocks...

I like everything you're getting at with the rest of your post, but this is where the conflict of interest comes in: I honestly love the tables. I would dread having to search the "Sword" section and go through hundreds of swords just to find a "longsword" and then have to read a whole paragraph...

Something in my gut tells me that "Dungeons and Swords" just didn't roll off the tongue well enough when they were coming up with a name some 40 years ago. I actually enjoy the idea of the sword having a variety of uses, and each part of the sword doing something different(perhaps using a...

I've been looking for days and days, and can't pull up anything truly relevant for a character I'm trying to build. I need to find a race that has a penalty to Int but a boost to Cha out of the books. I can work with LA, as long as it's no higher than 2. I've contemplated using a heinous...
