You know, I have no idea how that works. Presumably It would remove the Stunned condition, because that is what the spell does. But you still have INT 0. I am not sure what that mechanically means. Ahah, no see trystero below. The point would still stand if you found another way to removed...

Well I wouldn't want to get charged by a Challenge 2 Rhino (+7 to hit, 4d8+5 Damage) for a start. That said, yes there is a wide variance of difficulty within a Challenge rating. It is a pretty blunt instrument by design for measuring difficulty. But if you are throwing creatures with a...

That does seem to be a problem. It is pretty hard to 'knot a rope' without a rope, or 'swing from a rope' without a rope, or... actually I have run out of things to use rope for. But you get the idea.

Without getting to bitchy. You started of saying you wanted to be 'dependent on only STR or DEX, not both' so I assumed that STR based was still on the table. You also said 'I am not primarily asking for charbuild tips; I am asking about how different rules mechanisms interact, where those...

Assuming you have a 16 in your main stat, the Fighting Style gives you +3 damage on one attack per round. It is your bonus attack which without the feat you may not even get as you need to Ready an off-hand weapon (without the feat you only ready one weapon each round). That is just not worth...

The specific rule in this case is that a Natural 20 on a dice roll is a Critical Hit, regardless of modifiers.

No, it implies that if you throw one of these at a 2nd-level party, you probably will not kill them. Fighting things that are the same Challenge as your party is a big deal. Most of the Challenge 2 monsters we have seen are more than capable of dropping a Level 2 Character in a single lucky round.

Again, all the Two Weapon Fighting style does is allow you to apply your Ability Bonus to the damage of your off-hand attack. It is by no means needed to duel-wield. Rage damage is better. The Dual Wielder Feat is what you probably want, as that allows you to use non-light weapons.

I hate to say it, but I suspect that it is not intended for it to work like that: I would read the general rules on triggering opportunity attacks as still applying, i.e. 'You also don’t provoke an opportunity attack when you teleport or when someone or something moves you without using your...

Covered.

Hang on, why are rage and duel wield not compatible? The fact you get the Rage damage on the off-hand attack (as long as you use Str to attack) makes it better with duel wielding than any other fighting style. The Two-Weapon Fighting Style from Fighter/Ranger would add a bit more damage to this...

basically yes, I do. Some curses can only be stopped by fairly specific means. A wrong must be righted, a princess kissed or or a god must be somehow appeased. In such cases I might let Greater restoration solve the mater until dusk or something like that. Frankly, if Pelor has cursed Baron...

You know, I had a lutist performing at my place of work two weeks ago and I foolishly failed to ask him *any* questions about how he would go about fighting and spell-casting. Oh the opportunities one misses...

I think you are possibly focusing on mechanics rather than setting a bit to much. We already know that variant healing rules and crafting rules are coming in the DMG, so I would hang fire on those. So instead, setting wise, I would like to ask about Arril. Specifically, what does it add to...

I can't find any word of god pronouncements, but it is certainly the accepted ruling on the majority of message boards I read based upon the wording. However, given the variation between the wording in the book and how the designers have interpreted things on twitter recently, I would not bet...

TBH, (and this is totally non RAW), I have always used the rule of thumb that 'S' means you have to be capable of pointing to your target. So if your holding something pointy, staff, sword, wand, banjo, that's fine. If on the other hand you hands are tied behind your back or you are carrying a...

It effects all Damage Dice for the attack, in the same way that a Critical Hit doubles damage dice. So anything that adds extra Damage Dice (Divine Smite, Hunter's Mark) you would get to re-roll. Of course if you Crit, you get to double your extra dice and re-roll them on a 1 or 2, which is...

From Basic: Dancing Lights, Light, Minor Illusion

To be frank, I am not really sure how the relevant strength Animal Companions in past editions should in any way be considered relevant to this thread? We do not have to go back to a prior edition, you are for some reason inventing a requirement we in no way have to meet. So I regret to say that...

Ok, page 7 of the basic rules 0.2. So you are always proficient in spells.
