I suspect this is just an oversight, but the Darkmantle's Crush ability says that "the target is grappled" and "The darkmantle’s speed becomes 0, and it moves with its target." However, the grappled condition sets would set the target's speed to 0, too. So neither of them move. In our game, we...

We've been playing an A5e game for several months now and the maneuvers and the wealth of features you get have made a huge difference. As Mike said, there's a lot of "I have a thing for that!" moments outside of combat in particular, which is just amazing. I am intentionally playing a character...

VTT. In my case, it's Foundry. When they eventually finish the character builder, I will probably also create them there, especially if they have a PDF export option (I like to keep them after the game is over), but since everything is going to be in the SRD, that may not strictly be necessary...

Oh hey, the just dropped v 0.9.0 (and 0.9.1), so have at it! They are going for a happy medium between of some useful automation while allowing those official unofficial modules to add in some additional stuff (like calculating if an attack hits, etc). It has been pretty good so far and they...

We've been running a game in Foundry for a few months now and for the most part, it's fine. At present, there are a lot of features missing, but version 0.9.0 should be out soon (like probably next couple weeks or sooner) and that will add quite a few of them, with more added throughout the...

My wife used to work as an editor and she saw this sort of thing all the time. Something about the conversion process makes it lose the drop case letters, I guess? And then she'd have to grumble at the printers to fix it. She's in your designer's Discord if you want to chat with her about it...

They'd make you pay to fix that? Really seems like something the printer ought to fix at their expense. I'm so sorry this happened. If it helps, I'm just happy it's out! Maybe I'll draw my own letters just for fun :)

Sorry you have to deal with this :(

I'm talking about the book, not the PDF.

I don't remember if this was mentioned before, but I'm noticing that everywhere a paragraph starts with a graphic letter - for example, the first word on page 4 - that letter is missing. So it says "hat are psionics?" "n a time..." "hile this book" etc. Basically the first letter of every major...

I wonder, if it was $120 for the hardcover, would people still be complaining about the Patreon? Then it would be the same price. I, for one, backed it when it launched because if there weren't enough patrons, it wasn't going to launch at all. The monthly fees, presumably, pay the authors...

If it takes a fundraiser to pay for de-OGLifying, I'll happily back Advanced Not-5e.

Cervids, yay! I'm not biased or married to the author or anything... Love the art!

The book is outdated, not the tools. It was changed in the errata, as shown here: Errata — Level Up: Advanced 5th Edition (A5E). Which suggests that they rather intentionally did not want the spell to create supply.

To be fair, most multiclassing has some sort of cost/benefit based on what you choose first. There is almost always one "better" order to do it in, so that's where that "them's the breaks" mentality comes in.

I would just start with the rules on maintenance that are already in the game: Maintenance | Level Up. I think there are also maneuvers that can break things and crits may also have a rule for that. We are about to start a game with a heavy focus on exploration and spending a lot of time out in...

I love how A5e already has more tools available than D&D Beyond does despite them having years and years to actually put something together.

Yeah, the haven part is really the main draw IMO. Otherwise you risk trivializing the entire exploration aspect of the game not to mention one of the big reasons to have a ranger in your party in the first place since they can create safe havens. If you don't need a haven, you don't really need...

I've got mixed feelings about it. I think they definitely did the best they could within the constraints, but there are a handful of things that feel kinda clunky as a result of maintaining compatibility. On the other hand, that compatibility is kind of the point and without it, well it would...

I kinda feel like as time goes on, the content in the GPG could probably stand to go through some revisions and a collected edition would be a great way to do that. Unless they just end up adding it into a "proper" book later, kinda like how WotC integrates their smaller releases later.
