    D&D 5E (2014) Sphinx

    It's nice that three of its Lair Abilities can actually be used for beneficial effect, so its well worth negotiating with one.

    D&D 5E (2014) Lance is not a heavy weapon - Ergo halflings with lances. :D

    Pretty much I think I will be using the Pike as a Long Spear and the Lance as a Pike.

    D&D 5E (2014) "Young" versions of Large beast companions for Rangers - how to do?

    D&D 5E (2014) The Worst Capstone Abilities

    yes, it's pretty good.

    D&D 5E (2014) Roguish Archetype: Bravo

    Compared to using Hide, this seems a bit woeful. I would probably do something more like this: Cunning Feint: Starting at 3rd level, you can use the bonus action granted by your Cunning Action to make a Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) check. Whenever you successfully use Dexterity (Sleight of...

    Yes, starting wealth does not seem to change by level.

    D&D 5E (2014) Ranger

    Pretty sure shortening Animal Companion to AC is going to get pretty confusing.

    D&D 5E (2014) Opportunity attacks : Shove and Grapple?

    Something inspired by another thread. Do you believe that according to the rules that you can you use your opportunity attack to make a shove or grapple?

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

    You can not be a Eldritch Knight until level 3, at level 1 and 2 you are simply a Fighter.

    D&D 5E (2014) Bracers of Defense

    It's like giving the fighter +3 magic armor that doesn't let him use a shield. Which for some Fighter's would be a pretty big issue.

    D&D 5E (2014) No update to Basic today?

    I wonder if surfarcher has seen the monster stats in the back of the PHB yet.

    D&D 5E (2014) Hoard of the Dragon Queen (D&D Encounters version)

    D&D 5E (2014) Is it just me or does it look like we are getting the "must have feats" once again?

    I am still not sure that taking Resilient in any save that you do not have a good Ability mod is going to be worth it. Your target's seem to be 8 + Proficiency plus Ability Modifier. Resilient basically negates the Proficiency, so you basically rolling your Ability mod versus 8 + Ability...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is it just me or does it look like we are getting the "must have feats" once again?

    One of the players in a friends AD&D campaigns would only research fire spells, to the point that the other PCs actually went on a quest specifically to get him Cone of Cold so he wouldn't suck so much. After receiving it, he worked with the GM to copy it into his Spellbook as 'Cone of Fire'.

    D&D 5E (2014) Two-Weapon Fighting Style seems ... bad

    I am honestly not sure people are doing themselves any favours in getting their point across here by expressing everything in %s rather than that actual numerical increase.

    D&D 5E (2014) Why play a pact blade warlock?

    Yeah, Bladepact Warlock has definite Elric vibes to it.
