    D&D 5E (2014) No Feats Allowed?

    I allow the PCs to learn Feats every four chacrcter levels, although I have changed SS & GWM from -5/+10 to a straight +3 dmg bonus, and the Alert feat to grant a +5 bonus to passive Perception rather than "immune to surprise". I also allow multi classing, but everytime you multi-class you...

    D&D 5E (2014) Sleeping PCs and threat

    Leomunds tiny hut - every party's most popular spell. Pretty much invulnerable while you sleep. For a night time camp, you can even make the force bubble black to make it hard to spot at night. Even if something does, unless its a beholder or spell-caster with disintegrate, they aren't getting...

    D&D 5E (2014) Druids vs Command & Sleep

    Say you have a druid with 80hps. They wildshape into a bear with 34 hp's and get hit by a sleep spell. I am assuming the bear falls asleep? Also, what if a cleric cast command on the druid to "revert" - would they shift back to their humanoid form ?

    D&D 5E (2014) Wall of Force - Incorporeal creatures ?

    Wall of Force - Nothing can physically pass through the wall. It is immune to all damage and can't be dispelled by dispel magic. A disintegrate spell destroys the wall instantly, however. The wall also extends into the Ethereal Plane, blocking ethereal travel through the wall. So can an...

    D&D 5E (2014) ranger getting caught all of time---What to do?

    Maybe I am reading some of these posts incorrectly, but there seems to be some consensus here that passive perception is something you have to "actively engage in" . Doesn't that pretty much ignore the word passive ? Passive ...Definition = not participating readily or actively; not involving...

    D&D 5E (2014) ranger getting caught all of time---What to do?

    To my knowedgle that is incorrect. Passive Perception is your situational awareness and is active so long as you are conscious. It is the DC against which someone porperly using Stealth is contesting against to remain Unseen. Search rolls aren't supposed to be in play "at-all-times". They are...

    D&D 5E (2014) Which feats would you change, why would you change them & how would you change them?

    Yeah, I haven't really noticed any impact in game play with any other feats .. some are better than others But the +10 dmg/hit.. especially with sharpshooter and archery style +2hit.. is pretty damn lethal..

    D&D 5E (2014) ranger getting caught all of time---What to do?

    Yes., not being a wild elf, his ability to hide in a wilderness environment is seriously hampered.. Chances are your DM is saying the ogre "see's a figure dashing from tree-to-tree across the field as he moves toward the ogre" Everytime he leaves cover/concealment the Ogre (etc..) automatically...

    D&D 5E (2014) ranger getting caught all of time---What to do?

    Also is he a wild elf ? If he is, he has a natural camouflage ability to hide in natural fiolage.. Most monsters would never see or hear him.

    D&D 5E (2014) Which feats would you change, why would you change them & how would you change them?

    The only feats that i've noticed that have a truely impressive impact on the game is Sharpshooter and to a slightly lesser externt, Great Weapon Mastery, the +10 damage/attack and bonus action attack for dropping a target lets these characters truely carve their way through their oppenents

    D&D 5E (2014) Cloud of Daggers - magical damage ?

    Cloud of daggers states it does slashing damage. Even though a magical spell is creating the cloud of daggers, the spell does not state that the daggers deal magical damage, only slashing damage. Would this spell affect creatures requiring magical weapons to do damage, such as werewolves etc...

    D&D 5E (2014) New Players same level as Current Players?

    Does anyone have to deal with a player continually rolling up new PCs.. Every 4-5 levels they get bored and want to drop their PC for a new cherry flavored one. What rules do you use for gear for PCs above first level ?

    D&D 5E (2014) Alertness & initative Query

    As bulletes have no Stealth score, and only 10 Dex their ability to Stealth is "Not Good"... But assuming the Party has a Perception able to notice the appearance of the monster, the Alertness feat means they cannot be surprised and can so act on the "surprise round". Mt query is if they have a...
