    D&D 5E (2014) Improving the Fighter's Stickiness

    Because Rogues get to apply sneak attack to attacks made in other people's turns, such a feat would be a lot more useful for that class then fighter. Thus any solution that involves multiple OA probably is a bad idea.

    D&D 5E (2014) Summoning in 5E

    I don't halt play. So time that the player spends making a decision is time that the character spends doing nothing but making a decision.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E Challenge Ratings

    Challenge 0 creatures can be worth 0 or 10 XP, maybe you read that and extrapolated. ;o)

    D&D 5E (2014) Intelligence and Mounts

    I think I would pretty much go by languages, if its "-" it is not an intelligent creature. There may be exceptions to this rule of thumb.

    D&D 5E (2014) Making Poison and Health Potions

    It does explain why every merchant you meet wants to pay you to take care of his their problem, because it's a lot cheaper than putting down poison!

    D&D 5E (2014) Making Poison and Health Potions

    Not really sure what your looking for beyond affirmation the crafting rules are, as normal, not very sensible? I mean, you can make a chunk of cheese per day... or a bottle of wine, that's instant fermentation!

    D&D 5E (2014) Rarity of Healing for the Common Man in the 5e Implied Setting

    True, but bizarrely we are way more cash strapped on average today than average peasants ever were. We do still have a much better life style because stuff is way cheaper (and in many cases, exists, peasants did not drink much Cherry Cola for example). One of the issues is that history tends to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Rarity of Healing for the Common Man in the 5e Implied Setting

    Well, looking at the Hireling rules, Lifestyle Expenses seem to take exactly half the minimum wage. So an Unskilled Labourer (laborers, porters, maids, and similar workers) with a Squalid Lifestyle makes 1 spare silver a day, or 1 spare gold a Tenday. A Skilled Labourer (mercenary, artisan...

    D&D 5E (2014) Rarity of Healing for the Common Man in the 5e Implied Setting

    Wow. You are going to be very upset when you roll that on a random treasure table rather than some nice 'rare' item like the +3 AC Bracers.

    D&D 5E (2014) Mounted Combat Question

    There is no default option to let a mount attack. So, like with many things in 5th edition, it is a case of 'Improvising an Action'.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5th Edition -- Help Me Break the Game!

    Yes. I actually think the fact that the Monk Elemental powers actually specify you use Class Level rather than overall level is a pretty good argument that the Warlock powers are based on Character Level as there is no disclaimer.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e niggles:- Multiclassing Spellcasters; Dragonborn Sorcerers; Tavern Brawler; Warlocks

    I think so yes. Arcane Trickster and Eldritch Knight do not exist below level 3, so you can safely ignore those. Paladin and Ranger both add Half their level (rounded down). I don't think your breaking anything by applying that rounding after adding them together. Lets face it, its not a case...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5th Edition -- Help Me Break the Game!

    Looking through, given that it just says 'Level' and their are no special multiclass rules for Invocations, I would again say its based on what we used to call 'Character Level'. Although I can see an argument for saying all 'class features' (as opposed to spells) work on 'Class Level'. Over...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e niggles:- Multiclassing Spellcasters; Dragonborn Sorcerers; Tavern Brawler; Warlocks

    He would get spell slots... what he would not get is any spells.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5th Edition -- Help Me Break the Game!

    It is unbelievably clear, its based on Level. For example, Firebolt: 'This spell’s damage increases by 1d10 when you reach 5th level (2d10), 11th level (3d10), and 17th level (4d10).' Level is always what was sometimes called 'Character Level' in previous editions. The Multiclass...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e niggles:- Multiclassing Spellcasters; Dragonborn Sorcerers; Tavern Brawler; Warlocks

    Bot sure that is how you are supposed to do it, but it would definitely be how I would do it.

    D&D 5E (2014) Monsters as templates?

    I would just give the Bugbear the Reckless Trait tbh. It will keep the flavour and be less maths.

    I am not sure her armour is realistic....
