    Unearthed Arcana Light, Dark, Underdark - November's Unearthed Arcana

    They make it REALLY confusing publishing two different Warlock archetypes with extremely similar names (Undying vs. Undying Light).

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss, Your First Session

    My table got most of the way out of Velkynvale in the first 2 hour session. Looking back, I should not have let that happen. I'd recommend keeping the first session to PCs getting to know each other, suffering under the drow, and gathering intel & supplies for their escape. That also gives...

    D&D 5E (2014) Challenge: optimize my gnome paladin...

    1. Skip the spear, use a lance. It's a d12 reach weapon that even a small PC can use one-handed while mounted. 2. Convince another PC to let you ride them into battle. You can be stabbing from a barbarian's shoulders, or mounted on a druid mid-charge. The mounted combatant feat will let you...

    D&D 5E (2014) Newb Needs Help - Dwarf Cleric

    Whoops, that should be HP 11. The Hill dwarf gets +1 max HP per level. I forgot to mention cantrips. Other than the nature/druid cantrip, you get three. I'd recommend Guidance, Sacred Flame, and Spare the Dying.

    D&D 5E (2014) Newb Needs Help - Dwarf Cleric

    First things first, I'd take Hill Dwarf for the extra HP and Wisdom. Assign stats (with racial mods) as STR 13, DEX 13, CON 15, INT 11, WIS 17, CHA 11, with an eye to going CON 16, WIS 18 at level four. For background, take Sailor for the Athletics and Perception. Athletics always help for...

    D&D 5E (2014) Character Build - World's Greatest Detective

    I'd suggest a Variant Human Cleric (Knowledge) w/ Observant feat. Gives a great passive perception & can channel divinity for proficiency in any skill or language. You can always take a one level dip in Rogue for the extra skill and expertise.

    Chris Perkins' Io9 Interview: Art & A Bit Of Plot (Big Spoilers!)

    "...because the only thing scarier than a mob of mind flayers is a mob of undead mind flayers." Why? Now they REALLY want to eat your brain? An undead mind flayer is just a better target for clerics and paladins.

    D&D 5E (2014) Dungeon Obstacles

    Can't go wrong with a great big mold growth or fungal bloom obstacle. It can believably show up in any underground or seldom-used area. It creates a nice moment in the spotlight for the character with Nature or Survival skill. And it can cause all sorts of fun poison or hallucination problems...
