    Is there a way to get a Kelemvor Cert?

    I don't want to derail the thread any further, but any chance of providing images of what authentic con certs look like? Since the sale of certs doesn't look to be discouraged by the administration, it would behoove those of us on the ground to know what authentic certs look like. As for...

    SCAG Thread

    I just hope that the variant half-elves are legal for AL use. The PHB version feels more like a human with a two generic elven traits instead of being varied like the three elven subraces. Each half-elf in AL play should be able to choose to be more like their elven parent than their human...

    New SCAG Info: Someone Got The Book

    Correct, the Swashbuckler needs to stick to outside edge of melee to get the solo SA.

    New SCAG Info: Someone Got The Book

    I'm actually glad that there's no timeline in the book. This book needs to be as accessible to FR newbs as it is to the veterans. While it's perfectly fine to make allusions to the novels, the novels should not be needed to understand the content of this book.

    New SCAG Info: Someone Got The Book

    Three questions about the same subject. Does the Sun Soul Monk's ranged attack use Dex/Wis for attack/damage? Does it cost ki? Does it use the Martial Arts die for damage?

    So what power level does your scouter read for the Sun Soul Monk?

    Is there a way to get a Kelemvor Cert?

    The fact that AL certs are being sold for profit sickens me. Certs for Sam is okay because of its charitable nature, but straight-up profiteering is downright despicable. Not to mention, the premise of paying upwards of $200 for what amounts to one-time use DLC is ludicrous. I love AL as much...

    I love the Order of the Profane Soul. Having a 1/3 Pact Magic Gish is a nice counterpart to the Eldritch Knight.

    Running Expeditions as Encounters?

    Just make sure that players who go to both sessions don't gain more than the listed maximum xp cap. Generally speaking, the minimum xp is 75% of the max.

    D&D 5E (2014) How to Build Indiana Jones

    I'd give him the following stats, after racial: Str 10 Dex 14 Con 14 Int 16 Wis 12 Cha 8 Remember that your modifiers only go up on even ability scores, so use the two +1s to even out the two odd scores. As for classes, I'd go with a mixture of Battlemaster Fighter and Thief Rogue. The Thief...

    D&D 5E (2014) Optimizing Greenflame Blade

    Actually, if they quicken it, then the only spell that can be cast as an action is a cantrip. I don't know the exact page, but it's in the PHB under casting spells as bonus action. A quickened GFB is likely to be followed by another GFB. Still useful in a Sorclock build, with either a Fighter or...

    D&D 5E (2014) Challenge: Mixing the Paladin and Rogue

    Just make sure you have the appropriate stats if your game is using the multiclass prerequisite stat rules. Paladin is Str 13 & Cha 13, while Rogue is Dex 13.

    D&D 5E (2014) Optimizing Greenflame Blade

    It should totally work with Warcaster, as long as there is no secondary target in range. Very useful for Swashbucklers who use GFB as a means of getting off-turn sneak attack damage. I think that I'm going to work that into my Belmont build. This is what I have so far. Just think Captain N-era...

    D&D 4E 4elements question

    Four Elements (FE) Monk feels like a failed attempt at recreating the Enlightened Fist, by limiting the number of options available to them. The other two Monastic Traditions provide abilities that are geared primarily to complement the existing Monk action strategy of "Hit fast and move...

    D&D 5E (2014) Optimizing Greenflame Blade

    Operating under the assumption that the recently revealed Greenflame Blade will be available to Sorcerers, Warlocks, and Wizards, as the title of the section GFB is included in is called "Cantrips for Sorcerers, Warlocks, and Wizards." What builds would get the most mileage out of it? Here are...

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Initiate Feat Debate!

    "Social" encounters in a dungeon should translate to puzzle rooms. Even combat encounters can have a degree of puzzle elements to their nature. For example: Two weeks ago, my AL table running OotA yielded an interesting random encounter roll while being chased by the Drow. They encountered the...

    D&D 4E 4elements question

    Eyes of Fire doesn't look that bad to use. Maybe have a 6th level requirement, but otherwise good to go. My biggest complaint about the Mot4E is the limited number of disciplines known. I think that gaining two instead of one at each listed level would allow the player more variety in what...

    D&D 5E (2014) Some recent tweets.

    I tweeted him months ago about magical rods used as weapons (club/mace?), but never got a reply. Could someone more likely to get a reply ask for me? I'm an AL DM/player, so it's good to know how to handle situations where my Fighter/Warlock decides to swing with his Rod of the Pact Keeper...
