    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Missile vs. Mirror Image

    You just Stated the problem in your own post: Magic Missile is a special case because it doesn't have a saving throw or an attack roll. It just does automatic damage - which is probably why is has a magic item (brooch of shielding) and a spell (shield) specifically to counter it. Its a...

    You are super clever. Good one. Be careful. You can put a smiley face on the end to pretend you aren't mad, but your angry is showing. And its NOT clear. When I say "WE" I am referring to everyone else that has a problem with How Unclear it is. Thus, the reason for the thread. If you like the...

    Why is it NOT an Attack but plenty of other similar spells ARE an attack? Oh..Because he said so? WHERE is the explanation or his thought process? MM seems an awful lot like an attack to me! LOL

    D&D 5E (2014) Anyone else think the Bard concept is just silly?

    That's a very thoughtful Post. Thank you I will say that I think You are reading an awful lot into the fact that I used the word Pansy. I DID not say GAY. Straight people can act like a pansy too. If Pansy troubles you I can replace it with wimp? or say I don't like the Prancing bard? It has...

    I feel that we are entitled to a better explanation. Yes. His answer was akin to when you ask your parents why you cant do something and they say " Because I said so" He literally gave a feeble explanation. No Im not upset by the ruling itself. I don't care for it but that doesn't really...

    He is still just a dude. And the Spell description Sucks. I am sorry I am not impressed with what the "lead designer: had to tweet about. It was a bare bones LAZY way to answer. Literally the Minimum he could say to answer the question. What WOULD impress me is if the "Lead designer" took the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Missile vs. Mirror Image

    Yep, Someone posted that. Not sure I care who he is. The rules are sh*t and some dev roles out to clarify that "you should do it this way". No Thanks. Rewrite that sh*t and have it reflect that is the actual rule, and put it in the new edition. Until then I have a Rule book at my table and I am...

    D&D 5E (2014) Anyone else think the Bard concept is just silly?

    I don't think I have hidden that from anyone. :) Also I have conceded that My viewpoint has changed a bit because I have heard some good stuff in here To Be clear: My mind has NOT changed as it concerns the generic Minstrel pansy however. I still do dislike the cliché Image / persona of the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Missile vs. Mirror Image

    I DO know how vision works. I also know that unless the "Real target: suffers damage he isn't hurt. So While you can see several DUPLICATE images only ONE is a VALID target. You can dance around this to make the rules seem like they were written well if you want, But the rules are unclear to a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Missile vs. Mirror Image

    Spells can be attacks. Im sorry you don't acknowledge that but someone in this thread already showed the RAW post that Indicates that some spells are considered attacks even if there isn't a roll "to HIT". They are still classified as Attacks. Mirror image doesn't make it more difficult to...

    THAT is how we play it around My table OR If the player wants They can guess which is the real one and go for it. if they hit the real one great, if they Hit a fake one it dispels that fake one. It works well for our group and the player has the power to make the decision

    Except that You have to Pick a Single target. That is hard to do if you cant differentiate the REAL target from the duplicates? The Rules are suck on this :) LOL

    D&D 5E (2014) Anyone else think the Bard concept is just silly?

    I Imagine them pointing and saying a word of power. What I don't imagine is them Strumming a lute, Playing shrill Notes on a Pan pipe and dancing around like a Pansy :) I Imagine them with a Weapon or shield In one hand thrust before them, A determined look on their face and An Earnest word of...

    The High Level fighter took MAY MANY SMALL bruises and cuts. ( They may have been for example 8-10 points of damage each, any one of which would kill a commoner), but that fighter can have 10 wound that total a High HP number and it translates to ten separate wounds that , While on paper are...
