    D&D 5E (2014) Warlock/Cleric Best of all Worlds

    When it comes to the RP aspect of this combo, ultimately it will be up to the DM to decide whether to allow it, or to require an in-story justification, etc. I'm a big believer in the idea that multi-classing should have an in-character justification, I hate characters that are just bags of...

    D&D 5E (2014) Warlock/Cleric Best of all Worlds

    "You determine what spells you know and can prepare for each class individually, as if you were a single-classed member of that class." isn't really open to interpretations, it's quite explicit. You determine which Cleric spells you can prepare solely based on your Cleric level, so the Pact...

    help with optimizing the Sea Sorc

    Are you talking about using Twinned Spell to curse two people at the same time? Because I'm fairly certain that doesn't work based on the wording.

    D&D 5E (2014) Do you ever let players stack skills?

    This is probably the best way to go. It's simple, and it's in keeping with the way 5e runs. The only thing you'll need to decide is if you let the player choose whichever skill modifier is higher, or if you define a "primary" skill for the check and any relevant "support" skills that would grant...

    D&D 5E (2014) Sharpshooter

    It also happens to be a correct reading. The main principle to keep in mind is that a "ranged weapon attack" and an "attack with a ranged weapon" are two different things. Look at the wording in each of the three sections of the feat. The first two deal with "ranged weapon attacks", and the...

    Celestial (archfey?) patron for my aasimar warlock

    Plus, it shouldn't take much to re-skin the Fiend patron template into a Celestial one. The mechanics of the abilities don't even really need changing, just the flavor around them(instead of Hurl Through Hell, it could be something about opening their mind to the Light Of The Heavens, something...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ideas for Warlock Party Member

    Perhaps a set of Black Dragonscale Mail and swap out one of its bonuses for "does not impose disadvantage on Dexterity(Stealth) checks". I say swap out rather than just add it on because Dragonscale armor is "Very Rare" as it is, and at 3rd Level that's pretty darn powerful. Black Dragonscale...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ideas for Warlock Party Member

    The original post said the Warlock is 3rd level, so he could only have one feat. He'd need to take Moderately Armored as his bonus Level 1 feat, and then take Medium Armor Master at Level 4.

    D&D 5E (2014) Best 5E warlock patron for character optimization?

    Fiend is probably the most straightforward, especially when it comes to combat. Temp HP, resistance to the damage type of your choice, and Hurl Through Hell is just nasty when you aren't fighting fiends. Though for me, one of the best parts about Warlocks are the roleplay possibilities, and as...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ideas for Warlock Party Member

    Out of curiosity, how does the Warlock have Medium Armor Master if Warlocks don't have Medium Armor proficiency?

    D&D 5E (2014) Ioun Stone(Reserve) and Warlocks

    That would be my assumption if the DM house-ruled it, that the spell being stored would have to fit at its native level.

    D&D 5E (2014) Ioun Stone(Reserve) and Warlocks

    If a character with at least 7 Warlock levels comes upon an Ioun Stone(Reserve), are they unable to store spells in it? DMs, do you allow the Warlock to essentially "downgrade" one of their Pact Magic spell slots to a level that would fit in the stone? Or is the Warlock just SOL?

    D&D 5E (2014) MPMB's D&D 5e Character Tools

    I am blown away that you're now incorporating the UA material right into the sheet, I was already impressed that you were making the .js files available, but making them options in the main sheet itself is truly amazing. Thank you for all the work you put into this sheet!

    D&D 5E (2014) Started Lost mines

    How'd she get the +5 charisma at such an early level? Congrats on getting a new player into the fold! I have a soft spot for Warlocks, especially Archfey. Comes from being a Dresden Files fan, I suppose. I won't be following this threat TOO closely as I'm currently playing in a LMoP party...

    Protector Aasimar Fey Pack Tomelock Spellsniper Acolyte

    Sounds like he means Volo's is his +1 as in "PHB +1" for source material, meaning he can't choose anything from SCAG.

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Fighter: Samurai, Sharpshooter, Arcane Archer & Knight

    I checked with Crawford on Twitter, and the intent for Ever-Ready Arrow is that after using your 2 normal "per-rest" uses, you have unlimited uses after that, but with a 1-minute recharge time in between. So basically, one per combat. Still feels like it's not enough, basically the whole...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Fighter: Samurai, Sharpshooter, Arcane Archer & Knight

    I like that idea, something along the lines of "If you have not moved yet on your turn, you can expend all your movement and take a bonus action to steady focus your aim on a given target, gaining the following benefits to each of your attacks against your chosen target on this turn:". It might...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Fighter: Samurai, Sharpshooter, Arcane Archer & Knight

    Took a look at the Sharpshooter archetype, and am highly intrigued. You get part of the benefits of the Sharpshooter feat, part of the benefits of the Crossbow Expert feat, and some other nifty tricks. I think the only downside is that I'd probably end up taking the Sharpshooter feat anyway for...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Fighter: Samurai, Sharpshooter, Arcane Archer & Knight

    I'm assuming it's a clumsy way of saying that it's an arrow not a bolt, and as such cannot be used on a crossbow of any size.
