The non sequitur that you keep bringing up hasn't been correct since the first time you did, Arial. Frankly after 81 pages I would like to believe that you would be able to understand that.

I don't think that's ironic nor is that actually a good comparison. The DM not revealing the attack roll die result has nothing to do with luck factor. Rolling multiple dice is the unknown, since you don't know if the roll you add via the lucky feat will be lucky or unlucky. But really, luck...

what need do you have of hidden dice rolls?

eeexactly. So glad others see this as well.

I'm still wearing the vest because I never took it off in the first place. Instantaneous spells are still instantaneous regardless of the weird nonsense you keep posting about this topic.

This comes back to the fudging threads imo. The DM rolls behind a screen, calls out "I rolled x". I would ask to see the dice. But regardless, the un-modified number has to be given / shown before the player decides to use a luck point or not. That doesn't change regardless of rolling in the...

As for the spell Call Lightning, this is the 5e wiki entry: Casting Time: 1 action Range: 120 feet Components: V, S Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes A storm cloud appears in the shape of a cylinder that is 10 feet tall with a 60-foot radius, centered on a point you can see 100...

Correct. You can't use dispel magic on instantaneous spells.

He didn't walk into anything. Arial Black is still twisting logic to go full circle back to "eldritch blast can be dispelled". The answer is still no, 79 pages later.

Was this a way for you to make Charisma more attractive or needed? What happens with a class that naturally wants Charisma?

guys, guys, calm down. You're talking past each other. You're not disagreeing with each other. It's ok.

You missed the point of what Aaron was saying. It's not about what DM's know vs what players know during play. It's that your statement puts the DM on a pedestal. That they know better than their players what constitutes entertainment for everyone at the table, one person deciding what is...

For clarity:

agree to disagree. Passive aggressive attempts at resolving out of character problems via in character methods, such as the targeted killing of a player's character, has never in my experience helped resolve anything. Gl to you if you try that method at a table.

Trying to resolve this problem by killing the player's character won't solve anything. It'll just make things worse, especially if you use that kind of targeted stuff. Now he's under attack by an evil DM, he's the victim. This is an out of character problem. From what the OP described the...

Just because you found it unambiguous doesn't mean it wasn't or that it was. It means that you had a belief at the time which was shown to be correct after you asked someone who knew the answer to the question. 50/50 chance essentially. So good job, you were right. I've since changed my...

The stone giants have a chest, made up of pure rare ore they hewed themselves, that would fit with the requirements of the ritual. Problem solved. If you want to add a degree of difficulty, make it a tucked away in a secret treasure room or near an important place. The chest could also have...

In what sense?

My small contribution

The crafting rules in 5e are ridiculous. Do what makes the most sense for you and your group. Maybe introduce items required to make the chest that have to be gathered via side quests, ranging from simple to complex. You could also tie in those sidequests into the main plot of the campaign in...
