So your gaming space is large enough for you to improvise a dance?? NOICE!!

Fair enough. I've never actually played A5E, only read the books. I saw that PCs got more "stuff" and assumed they were more powerful. Happy to hear the "stuff" is intended to make them more flexible instead. Note to self: only comment on games you have actually played!

While these conversions are accurate, you might also want to keep in mind that A5E's has a higher base power level than 5E. An Esper in a party with standard 5E classes seems like it could be a bit overpowered since it is balanced against other A5E class options. So Esper "expertise" and...

AND really different flavors and playstyles depending on subclass choice. I have a hard time playing anything other than a bard in 5e!

Yup. I always thought that the Warlock chassis made much more sense for the Artificer. Might have to do it myself.

Wow! Thanks. That was a LOT more than I expected. I had no doubts that you had put a lot of thought into this product, but this proves I was underestimating exactly how much thought went into it! Thanks again for the answer and the amazing product. Now log off ENWorld and get working on your...

@Steampunkette I've had a question since I first read Paranormal Power (which I love BTW) a few weeks ago: Why did you decide to make the various Mind Strike options bonus actions rather than Actions? They seem pretty cantrip-adjacent in terms of power and combat cantrips are typically Actions...

Never mind.

Several people have noted the balance/niche protection conflict between "an effective combat wildshape" and "full caster with 9-levels of spells." 3 campaigns ago (time flies) the moon druid in my game became pretty disappointed with his wildshape options around level 7 or so. I developed...

I tend use my own stuff or heavily modify modules when I run them, so take this with a grain. But I lifted big chunks of Tales of Old Margreve from KP for my 2nd-to-last campaign and loved it. I wished I could have used more of it but it would have conflicted too much with stuff I had already...

I am genuinely a huge Kobold Press fan. Their settings and modules are really top tier as are many of their creatures. However their spells are really pretty bad. Bad as an unbalanced, repetitious, overly complicated, and designed to get you to play their subclasses. Ring magic? Angelic magic...

I've always thought alignment was stupid.

Malazan Books of the Fallen. Almost all of my plots end up being "party trying to stop indescribable evil" but interspersed with light and grim humor.

Mic drop. Sometimes less is more.

This is just...eerie. Are you a Diviner Wizard by any chance? 'Cuz I'm pretty sure you just predicted the future!

Very nice. Yoink! (Is "yoink" still a thing? I'm old!)

The reason I believe the "take 10" remains useful is to determine the EXTENT of a success. This is why I especially use it as a floor for Knowledge checks, just like PP is a floor for Perception checks. If a Wizard has a +5 Arcana and rolls a 2, they get the information of a DC15 check but can't...

This just might be the grey in my beard talking, but I never truly did away with "take 10" in 5e, although I don't call it that. I especially use this with Knowledge checks (I'm sorry, the Wizard simply HAS to have a higher Arcana check than the Barbarian, just like the Barbarian is better at...

I'm going to plug the Midgard Campaign Setting from Kobold Press. One of the most flavorful and fun campaign settings I've used in a while. A dragon empire, a Egyptian-adjacent empire, an undead kingdom encroaching into its neighbors, Amazonians (or near enough), Norse dwarves, etc...

This! Thank you!
