The idea of a class that can only cast a single spell was mentioned on this forum months ago as a possible new class. I thought it was clever and started thinking about how to create that, but I'm getting stuck - as one might expect with such a limited toolbox - and need help. Utility...

I'm disappointed that a kensei cannot use a glaive (naginata), was looking forward to that.

Ha ;). We came up with the Mordor scenario at the same time to illustrate opposite opinions. Of course I'd make it possible. It'd be a dumb decision, but I'm not going to stop them from making dumb decisions; I don't believe that is a DM's job. But I would think it would be contextually obvious...

I totally disagree. I believe a sandbox should have a very large range of encounters. If a group of beginner PCs decide to tackle the most powerful being in their world, that's on them. If a group of 20th level players want to kick around CR 1 monsters, that's on them as well. A campaign world...

Think about sandboxing as roleplaying that is closer to the real life... IRL, I wouldn't walk up to a bear and attack it with a dagger; I'd be cautious of where bears lived and be on the look out to avoid them. I might try to deceive my boss that I wasn't late to work; I wouldn't try to try to...

Interesting that Plisnithus8 posted some home-brew Racial Feats in December: http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?534688-Racial-Feats A few are oddly similar, but I guess that can be expected: - rock gnome Alarm gadget - Dragon Hide BTW, the home-brew also includes non-PHB races for...

Could Animal Handler allow you to attack with your familar, animal companion, and/ir eild-shsped druid as a bonus action?

If you are foing s sandbox, tell the players it's s sandbox and what that means - choices more danger, just because they pull a Comet from the Deck of Many Things doesn't mean your next opponents will be balanced for you to beat them. Narrative fate isn't as strong if things aren't linear. There...

I don't think the spell mentions that the caster must have seen/observed the beast so we play that any 5e beast that the caster has read about is valid - kind of like a player becoming a dragonborn or aarakocra after reading about them in the PHB or EEPC.

So would aarakocra talons use Dex or Str? EE p. 5 - "Talons. You are procient with your unarmed strikes, which deal 1d4 slashing damage on a hit."

Maybe I'm missing something. Why would a clawed sneak attack be unbalancing?

That makes sense to me but is why it would seem like a tabaxi would be better (or at least equally as good) at using its claws compared to a dagger. I really don't see how finesse claws unbalance* - for flavor it just seems weird that a warlock tabaxi would use a dagger/daggers when it has...

1. 4/4/17 Dragon TALK They discuss Wild Shape and say a monk/druid cannot use a beast's claws in conjunction with an unarmed strike because Claw is different than an Unarmed Strike; you have to choose one or the other. On the other hand, a tabaxi's claws are written as an unarmed strike...

You regain a hit point on your next turn if you take damage, even if you are at 0 hp. It doesn't happen 6 consecutive rounds unless you take damage the round before each of those. While this helps especially at lower levels, it is possible it could still come into play at higher levels with a...

Perhaps make so that only penetrating skull damage kills a walker so an attack would need to do at least 3 hp of damage and get disadvantage for a called head shot. In TWD, [spoiler alert] everyone is infected and turns to a zombie when then die, biting just causes an infectious wound that...

What about something like this? "REGENERATION. When you take damage, you regain 1 hit point at the start of your next turn. You do this a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus. You regain use of this feature after a long rest."

In one of current campaign worlds, dwarves, elves, and humans have destroyed themselves with magic. The other races have segregated themselves except for one growing city where the adventure began. My party works for an agency that sends them into the zombie-infested old world ruins hunting for...

PHB p. 195 "You can make an opportunity attack when a hostile creature that you can see moves out of your reach...You also don’t provoke an opportunity attack when you teleport or when someone or something moves you without using your movement, action, or reaction. For example, you don’t provoke...
