    Pax Prime seminar 2012 juicy news!

    If there is a spellpoint variant/option for the wizard that you could simply call the sorcerers of your world (thus removing the 'story' that WotC may/may not tie in to the class that they label as sorcerer given that the base wizard class won't have an assumed story built in to it), would that...

    The Perturbed Dragon S01E03: The Cheat [video]

    she's a cheater and she uses the 'guide to profanity' - my kind of woman ;)

    How do you role getting new spells?

    i think of it as an abstraction. During the course of adventuring at level 1 the wizard has some downtime while resting or when otherwise not directly engaged in activities. It is during that time that the wizard is studying, testing magical theories, etc. At level 2 is when he figures out how...

    Why Can't We Report XP Comments?

    i speak with no authority here, but it might be possible to report the post to which the offending xp comment is listed and then in the details of the report put down that it is the xp comment to which you are trying to draw attention. since, as far as i understand it, reporting a post doesn't...

    Common/Uncommon/Rare...

    when they talked about common/uncommon/rare before I seem to recall that they specifically said that rarity was not a reflection/product of campaign story/setting (regardless of that implication from those titles of common/uncommon/rare implied). Instead, common,uncommon, and rare were solely a...

    Reworking the Adventuring Day, OR Alternate Daily Resources - ideas appriciated

    addendum to my last post -- looking over your list of suggested fixes more closely... a) as an outsider, it seems like a lot of house rules to potentially have to reference during the game and something i might consider a bit too much. but obviously my opinion doesn't matter on that part since...

    Reworking the Adventuring Day, OR Alternate Daily Resources - ideas appriciated

    this may be a bit oversimplistic, but what if you change the narrative of the mechanics. 'extended rest benefits' only happen after an adventure thus, they still need sleep at night, but the surges and daily powers and other daily resources don't 'recharge' until they rest inbetween quests...

    Saving against daze in the "middle" of your turn

    This what I was going to say... slow is another 'negative condition' so it makes an appropriate comparison (so you don't get the 'left over balance of actions'... turn is done). and that's how i'd handle it at my table if I were DMing and asked that question.

    New Content

    while it might be nice, i suspect not since they just sent out the surveys for playtest 2 so they'd have to deal with a lot of logistics regarding who filled out the survey already with the initial release vs who filed it out after the later release, etc. not saying it couldn't be done. just...

    A call for rampant speculation and suggestions on classes.

    Rampant Speculation (with no real basis in reality at all)... Ranger: Will be similar to Fighters but with those combat dice advancing at a slower rate AND they'll have the ability to use combat dice to cast nature-y spells rather than affect their damage inflicted or attack precision. And...

    Races You Always/Never Use

    Personally, 90% of the time I play humans. The remainder of the time i might play something else if i can think of a good story-concept for the racial choice (example, i never really thought i would play a warforged but for one PC for a few sessions i had an idea in my head that just seemed to...

    Best miniature for Avandra?

    is there something about Avandra that is emphasized in the purpose of the portrayal? I ask because maybe something halfling-like , or something roguish like, or something that looks like a traveler

    Political scheming for the good guys?

    What can the LG Head Priest Offer to the NG Churches.... What are the selling points... that's the main question.. Some brainstorming (not all great ideas but may spark something better) * can they offer funding support? (perhaps from the "better off" city temples) * can they offer man power...

    Thank you EN World

    yeah, yeah. now shut-up and get back to work writing more stuff ! (insert obligatory "dance, monkey, dance!" subtext) *that's all a joke. i'm pretty sure it's in line with your style of humor. if not, i apologize!!!

    D&D 5E (2014) So did they just drop modularity ? This is what has me worried.

    having a sorcerer with spellpoints does not exclude the eventuality of the final wizard having a spellpoint optional module. Moreso if you take in to account that wizard is suppose to be a common class whereas warlock and sorcerer are predefined as rarer and thus more specific and complex...

    What forum question

    there is also a rpg freelancer link at the top menu bar (though poking me head in there at this moment doesn't seem to have much current activity. but i don't know if that is just a momentary lull or typical).

    What is the Sundering?

    perhaps it involves a hatch, some numbers, a smoke monster, and a cork? while drizzt and elminster play a game of white and black stones... no wait, that would just be ridiculous... :D

    D&D 5E (2014) New D&D Next Playtest Packet Is Here!

    i'm sure everyone has noticed by now but i didn't see it mentioned in this thread so i thought i'd say it in case random people didn't notice and were just watching this thread rather than other announcements from gencon that it was happening... If you redownload the playtest packet today (when...

    Creating your Character vs. Meeting your Character

    while i enjoy the idea of doing that, my experience with actually doing it hasn't been that great.... no so much because of me specifically, but because of the atmosphere it created for the group. There was typically that one person who got a character type that he/she didn't want to play...
