    Greenflame Blade Cantrip from SCAG, Courtesy of EXTRA LIFE

    I agree. I think the only part that could use clarification is the wording about the melee attack roll. Logic dictates that it's a melee weapon attack, as Sage Advice has said that a "melee weapon attack is a melee attack with a weapon." Application of the reflexive property would make our...

    Greenflame Blade Cantrip from SCAG, Courtesy of EXTRA LIFE

    Judging by both the heading of the section it appears in "Cantrips for Sorcerers, Warlocks, and Wizards" and the compact nature of the format as seen by both the ToC and Mastermind previews, I suspect that all spells in that section will be for all three classes for the sake of saving page space...

    Greenflame Blade Cantrip from SCAG, Courtesy of EXTRA LIFE

    Your reading of "Whenever you cast a spell other than a cantrip that deals lightning or thunder damage" differs from mine. Without proper punctuation to separate the qualifiers, it reads like it's only excluding Shocking Grasp and Thunderclap with language that excludes other future cantrips of...

    D&D Adventurers League Amendments to Out of the Abyss

    Here's the thread about GFB. My last post points out a synergy with Storm Sorcerer, the likely included subclass because Swashbuckler.

    Cleric of Kelemvor

    Curses for being on the opposite corner of the country in Florida! I really wish that DM reward certs were of that caliber. I would love to use some of the DMG player options, if only as a means of encouraging others to sit on the other side of the screen. Then again, I just don't have the...

    Greenflame Blade Cantrip from SCAG, Courtesy of EXTRA LIFE

    Cantrips are spells. Spells taken via Magical Secrets count as bard spells. A Valor Bard could cast GFB and get the bonus action attack. It's a way of keeping your second attack if you rely on GFB as an Attack replacement. Of course, that eats up your bonus action in terms of action economy. At...

    D&D Adventurers League Amendments to Out of the Abyss

    I foresee a small percentage of the metagaming population to act upon this ruling, but not so much from the core AL community. If anything, they'll find it as a surprise the first time it affects them. Glad to see the random item generator includes Goggles of Night, as I ended up rolling one...

    Greenflame Blade Cantrip from SCAG, Courtesy of EXTRA LIFE

    High Elf Swashbuckler (provided that it hasn't changed much since UA) with a Fighter dip for Dueling and armor proficiency becomes a veritable Dex tank of GFB goodness. Use GFB as Attack replacement, and still get Fancy Footwork activation, freeing up your bonus action to Dodge. Toujours...

    What magic items are now "out there" in AL?

    The AL Staff would prefer if such lists didn't exist. Therefore, you probably won't find one posted here by any of us who frequented the old AL forum. As for the item that had a different description in the DMG than its first appearance, the ruling is that the two are separate versions of the...

    Philosophical approaches of PFS and Adventurer's League

    As long as the store is okay with it, there's nothing stopping you from running Expeditions off-site. The only caveats are that the games must be advertised and open to the public. I've started running games at conventions that my store is attending as a means of increased item distribution...

    DM Discussion thread: The Occupation of Szith Morcane

    Good to know about those missing stat blocks, as I'm about to start this on Thursday. Any advice on where a good midway point would be, as I run the Expeditions as two-session adventures in a two hour block? I generally aim to stop after Part 2, but I would like some feedback as to how long each...
