    Chris Perkins: Reintroducing Settings in Ways that Surprise People

    I would prefer you don't alter what I said again. That's rude and not at all as clever as you think it is. Plus, what I said was perfectly valid. If you want to suggest something positive, then maybe suggest they put out BOTH settings and adventure paths. If you want adventure paths so much...

    Chris Perkins: Reintroducing Settings in Ways that Surprise People

    I think they should focus on making books people want to buy. I want to buy setting books. I don't want to buy adventure paths.

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana - The 5E "Battlesystem" Mass Combat Rules Are Here!

    I would actually disagree. With every attack from a siege weapon you are doing 10x the damage you normally would. It should act the same way it normally would, except the rounds are 1 minute long instead of 6 seconds.

    D&D 5E (2014) When do you think they will announce the next book?

    To be honest, I see the head of a dog demon from Ghostbusters.

    D&D 5E (2014) Identify

    I kind of think Identify is there for those who think spending an hour with an item shouldn't mean you know it's trigger word, it's history, and every ability if you attune to it.

    Circles of Power: Three New Druid Circles

    I really like each of these circles. The Animal companion feature could use a bit more description.

    D&D 5E (2014) Mike Mearls' five tweets on the jury duty hold-up

    I'm assuming the jury is sequestered or the Gozer the Article Master would be able to put their stamp of approval on things.

    BLUE ROSE Returns, Championing Diversity & Inclusiveness

    P 121. Inspiration. Basically, if your GM thinks you roleplayed your character well you get an Inspiration. You can use that Inspiration to reward other players' roleplaying, or you use it yourself by gaining advantage to any d20 roll . If I do say so myself, this single mechanic handles...

    D&D 5E (2014) So what exactly is Wizards working on?

    They can make a new setting. Even with the old settings, I don't want to have to convert them to 5e. That's stuff I expect WotC to do. If they can't make money doing that with books then do it with Magazines.

    D&D 5E (2014) So what exactly is Wizards working on?

    So the last Bamf podcast interviewed Steve Townsend and Robert Schwalb about their work on the DMG. I got the following impressions about WotCs take on 5e as a whole: 1) They decided that mechanics drags the game down. I'm on board with that. 5e doesn't need splat books to add more to the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Of Wizards and specific 5e questions and musings

    You can make suggestions to the GM. Although since you are doing a module he might not want to make changes. You either have to live with it and take notes and when you run your own game make the changes you want. Most people don't house rule things until they have done a few sessions though.

    At Least 4 Months For Conversion Documents

    So I guess they are just sitting around the office looking at all the empty cubicles playing solitaire and working on their home campaigns until the boss comes back.

    D&D 5E (2014) Of Wizards and specific 5e questions and musings

    I think the main answer to all your problems is to House Rule the drek out of your game until you like it. Waiting on WotC to get off the butts to fix the problems is a lost cause. They have 8 people who are too busy working on how to put D&D on cereal boxes instead of add to 5e. In fact...

    D&D 5E (2014) Aversion to Creativity?

    I could say WotC has an aversion to be creative too. Instead of coming up with a new Setting or new modules they are giving us railroady adventure paths shoe horned into Forgotten Realms. Instead of growing the RPG in house, they have focused on licensing and relying on other companies'...

    D&D 5E (2014) Are hardback AP's a waste?

    I want both hardbacks and pdfs. although I wouldn't care if they were soft covers as well.

    D&D 5E (2014) How far can you nerf spellcasting and still consider it DnD5?

    Why do you even think they need to be nerfed? They have so few spells and cantrips will never become better than a martial classes abilities.

    D&D 5E (2014) Pseudodragon as a familiar?

    The Familiar rules need a lot of work. I think I would let the Familiar and the Wizard to share Hit Points. That will give the wizard incentive to not put them in harmful situations but they won't die instantly if they get caught in battle.

    D&D 5E (2014) Are DMs getting lazy?

    I wonder how much Adventure Paths are popular or if WotC just decided on Adventure Paths because they are limited in the amount of books they can produce so they just crammed an entire campaign into one or two. I don't hear about fantastic Adventure Paths. I only hear about fantastic modules.

    D&D 5E (2014) Are DMs getting lazy?

    I'd like to bring up that D&D always had many adventures in every edition. So what if people want to buy more into 5e? Why should you even care? I'm happy you can do everything you need for your game. I don't have the time like I did when I was in high school. So get off my case.
