mmm. Rapier 25 gp 1d8 piercing 2 lb. Finesse Falchion 75 gp 2d4 slashing 4 lb. Finesse, heavy, two-handed It doesn't look unbalanced on the face of it tbh.

My rule thumb is getting Advantage should involve using an Action and making a skill test. Beyond that it is pretty free form with the provision that attempting the same thing twice may suffer Disadvantage on your skill check to get Advantage. So an Action spent feinting would be a Dexterity...

Yeah, that totally should have been made a Tool Proficiency.

Because you only get to add your rage damage and use Reckless Attack with strength based attacks, I am not sure a Dex-barian is a very good idea tbh.

I would hardly call Int 14 stupid. They are positively bright!

It's in the Tyrany of Dragons download.

TBH, I think your argument is 50% undercut by the fact it can still fly.

Because is 3.5 Martials sacrificed nothing and Casters sacrificed everything. People have to adjust.

Just looking through the Feats and looking at Kobolds. Kobold Sentry = Kobold with Alert Feat Kobold Alchemist = Kobold with Magic Initiate Feat (at will Acid Splash, Poison Spray, 1x Burning Hands, DC 9) Kobold Dragonshield = Kobold with Sentinal Feat Kobold Komando = Kobold with Sharpshooter...

Honestly, I think people over estimate how viable stacking caster classes is in 5e. The fact that the level of spells you can learn is limited by you class level is still a huge hindrance, even if you do get to cast them in higher level slots. To give perhaps the most obvious numerical example...

A +1 club that does 2d6 Elemental damage will, and that's not outside the bounds of what we have already seen. Doesn't look like it. This is a game that thinks adding the ability to change 1s to 2s of a spell Damage roll is worth including in a Feat. So I don't think you are going to see very...

Doesn't the Dragon's Bite attack do elemental damage?

No mention of removing Exhaustion under Lay on Hands at all.

The Rage resists are pretty nice, not sure they are worth putting the levels you get an extra attack up by 1 though. It depends I suppose if you would rather be the Irresistible Force or the Immovable Object. Multiclassing always seems to lead to pretty hard choices in this edition, which I am...

That seems to be the case, yes. Which I had actually overlooked, so thanks!

I don't like the simplicity of 5E monsters, oh no. I love it. (You may have to sing that first line quite fast for it to fit the tune).

I prefer to think of it as creatures are now more diverse, because everything isn't loaded down with pretty much the same Spell Like abilities. That said, I believe there may be some generic devil powers, such as summoning other Devils, that have been taken out of the stat block. It is also...

I ended up assuming all monsters had rolled max possible hit points and the players still went through them like they were wet tissue paper. Really looking forward to their reaction when they meet an ogre they can't overpower in one round. ;o)

He often works elaborate con jobs on the rulers of hell. Sometimes successfully. For example, selling his soul to all three rulers of hell at the same time.

I am guessing the starter set was built with a slightly earlier set of rules. The NPC parry ability is also slightly different. Not spotted anything else yet.
