    D&D 5E (2014) Party Synergy

    Probably light clr, bear GWM bbn or ancients GWM pally, abjurer wizard, lore bard. Probably add a ranged dpr guy for a 5-man party.

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    Yep, totally agree. The pricing could probably do with some simplification. It's cumbersome and probably too expensive but for me it was mainly the explanation of the options.

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    Exactly! Its nice to have the option to buy seperately because that caters to people who want to buy that way... but wheres my option to buy everything in one go? Also, I just want to play 5e. I imagine the instances where someone downloads the software without knowing what game system they...

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    The options aren't necessarily the issue. Its how you package, explain and present the options. For example, the usability of that page is not great. The packages need more space, and they need a big clear thing that says "Which option is right for my group?" because by the time I get to this...

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    You've framed in a lighthearted way, but this is actually a barrier to your product. People should have questions about the functionality sure, but they shouldn't have questions about the distribution or subscription model. That should be so clearly spelled out and accessible that even a...

    D&D 5E (2014) So.... hide?

    From the way some of you talk, you imagine dungeons that look like Raiders of the Lost Ark but behave like featureless white spaces with uniform ambient light that cast no shadows...

    D&D 5E (2014) Arcane Trickster into Warlock

    Yikes, maybe bladepact for the extra attack and darkness/devils sight? You could do the eldritch blast thing once it overtakes your sneak damage (since you won't get sneak attack dice on spells). Warlock doesn't add to your arcane trickster multiclass casting levels like everything else does...

    D&D 5E (2014) Does a sentinel attack interrupt a charge?

    Same. It doesn't say "when you take the attack action" which is what they tend to say when they mean a specific action type.

    D&D 5E (2014) So.... hide?

    This was an interesting ruling. It implies that once you've discovered a hiding creature, you're less likely to lose them again in the fray. This presumably also applies for PCs who discover hiding opponents. Kind of a side question regarding hiding, is it possible to move while hiding? The...

    D&D 5E (2014) please delete

    Personally, I'm not keen on abilities that simply replicate a spell, especially if the ability actually casts the spell. A class ability should provide some benefit that a spell can't provide or an interesting twist. For example, instead of saying "you get nondetection with a save" (which...

    D&D 5E (2014) So,whats up with those half orcs?

    Yes, too long have these filthy half-orcs flooded into our lands, taking our jobs and women.

    OK, good its not just me. I agree. I've just been trying to puzzle out how I change the brush size. Does it have an undo tool? I'm trying the usual shortcuts but I have no idea what it is.

    D&D 5E (2014) How would imposing no stacking of magic affect 5E game balance?

    If you're proposing that effect bonuses overlap instead of stack, you probably have to determine whether the overlap applies only to exactly the same effect and bonus or whether its different effects to the same bonus, for example advantage on an attack roll is basically a bonus to an attack...

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    I picked up the ultimate subscription so I can muck around. Been looking for a decent VTT for ages. I've watched the 5e videos but to be honest they confused me because the developer already has all the rulesets available so when he's explaining how to make a character, he's dragging and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Designing a fantasy army in 5th

    This might've already been pointed out, but Silence in 5e is a stationary effect. It can't be cast on an object or person and move with them like it could in previous editions.

    D&D 5E (2014) So,whats up with those half orcs?

    One HO, one half-elf, one lightfoot halfling, three humans. The extra feat is difficult to beat.

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    There must be something I'm missing here. How do I play the game without any of the rules? Also, what scripting and automation tools?

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    Oh ok, so the Ultimate license provides access to the application and then you have to buy the rules for whatever game you want to play. Cool, cheers. Thanks for explaining that because the website does a truly horrible job of it. I just spent 30 frustrating minutes with the application...
