Errr…. If its got the Artificer class rules and the Warforged race (which it states it does) then what are they leaving for "Wayfinder's Guide to Eberron" ? Based on the listed contents... it looks like they just renamed it. ... • Meld magic and invention to craft objects of wonder as an...

lol, My GM switch Identify back out for Shield because the felt it was more appropriate and he doesn't use Identify spell in his games because he thinks curses are silly and you can already identify magic items on a short rest. While it does give me ridiculous AC defense my 20AC +2 shield of...

Dex is not the god state, Charisma is!! With enough Charisama and Expirtise in persuation I can defeat any foe!! Deflect any attack!! and win any battle!! I will simply tell them they should give up and they shall lay down their arms!! I will tell magic missiles to attach their own caster and...

I am playing a Dwarven Forge Cleric tank of Moradin. At level 1 had a base AC19 + 2 for AC21 when casting shield of faith, inpart due to blessing of the forge. Since I mostly use self buff spells and self healing I have a low 14 wisdom but I have 16 constitution so my health is pretty good. At...

I am not sure it matters as long as the Bonus and DC adjust to the scale. That's all I am saying. Even if we use your joke 100 skill +1d20, but then we make the DC 115 its really no different than 10 skill +1d20 with DC 25. That's the whole point of bounded accuracy philosophy behind 5th...

I never said that and It was not in the post to which you replied that I was replying on. So if some where later in that thread on some post @jgsugden said that, then he did cross that line into jerk. I don't see that post and I am posting in the context of the original post. It would not...

That's not wrong. Its just the same as taking a -5, 0, or +5, instead of a 0, +5, or +10. I simply prefer a default of 0 being no skill and the base at which they start. Then your good or your and expert. I get the idea of being truly bad at something but at the same time a bad swordsman might...

[/FONT][/COLOR][/LEFT] I get that he is saying "its fun and there is no issue on raising an idea of an alternate system" but I also don't think its rude to bring up a point of consideration and question the need for the topic. [/FONT][/COLOR][/LEFT] I also don't think is rude to bring up a...

[/FONT][/COLOR][/LEFT] Sure but wizards don't generally use longswords so they don't get better at them. You have option for ASI / feat to choose what you have been doing and improving as well as any skill you actually do can count toward training gaining said proficiency bonus... and done...

I had a GM that did. He also felt that applied to weapons even though it didn't say so when I multi-classed rogue so I had find wood from a D&D Quebracho tree (aka Axe Breaker Tree) to make daggers that wouldn't NORMALLY break in combat and use mending to fix them when they did. Add to that my...

Since you only have one attack, I would consider poison lacing your weapons. You can buy and make poinsion and you sheath/unsheath as a free action. So I would poor the poision into your sheath, then ask the GM as a special exception for your unusual build that it allows you to apply poision to...

True, but my point is that its very niche and you are (read "I am") not likely to need it more than a few times campaign. So the level ups more then cover it. Unless its something I can do once a day as a bonus action, I am just going to build the best cantrip list I can have and stick with it...

Usefulness is dependent on if you use it or not, am I wrong? The problem is "The Right Cantrip for the Job" doesn't switch as and bonus action so your likely only going to switch when you KNOW one cantrips is better than another for some things... but once you know that, your likely to keep that...

Normally with any other class you would be correct. However below is a direct quote from the latest version of the Artificer: "Cantrips At 1st level, you know two cantrips of your choice from the artificer spell list below. At higher levels, you learn additional artificer cantrips of your...

If they would take awesome "Spell-Storing Item" ability from the level 18 where no one will ever see it used and replace the lack luster "The Right Cantrip for the Job" at level 10 where "Spell-Storing Item" would be more a part of the class I would be happy. "The Right Cantrip for the Job" is...

I think this is were it strikes me most. To me, a Thug is more a professional fighter (aka warrior) than defined by skills. That said backstab is more of skilled assassin shot than a fighter. So I actually played a rogue archer as a sniper which is a skilled warrior and mechanically very much...

So what of that can't be achieve by role playing fighter or barbarian as thug? What does the Rogue class offer as Strength based design like this that makes it the choice for this subclass? Again, that's why I keep referring to the rogue class as a group of features. What detracts from this if...

You are correct sir. But I am also trying to ask for clarification incase I am the one that is confused. (It happens). So I am offering my perspective of what I see and asking for correction in hopes to gain a clearer picture. Sure, but understanding the full intent is important to...

"It" being rogue features? How do you see it playing? In pretty much every game I have ever seen the rogue features results in ranged combat using dex or stealthy melee fighter using dex. Using strength is inherently abstract to that... so what is it your keeping about how the rogue plays? The...

Sure I forgot that languages come from race and background (meaning it has nothing to do with any feature group). Its not uncommon for me to use a flawed example. I don't agree that the overall point is diminished, concept of classes being feature groups and that building off a feature group...
