    D&D 5E (2014) What Aspects of Every Edition Should be Included in 5e?

    Please no. This was absolutely the worst thing about 3.x. At the very least, they would have to make the system so that you do not gimp yourself by being just a regular class all the way through.

    Adventures will set the tone more than the system

    Its a showcase adventure for a game in Alpha mode. Chill.

    D&D 4E Things 4E Did Well & Should be Kept in Some Form

    I agree with you completely, I never saw the point of it either. But, with seemingly a good deal of people wanting it, what would be the harm in including it? Maybe what we need is some sort of siloing of skills as well, so that if you want to spend some stuff on craft or perform, you do not...

    Same rules or different Rules (PC vs NPC)

    While I must admit that I am trying to steer clear of calling anything a deal-breaker, this is one of the areas where I am really hoping that they make it exactly as I wish. PC: Simple skeleton with lots of meaningful options, not just +modifiers to attack, damage and saves. NPC: Simple, yet...

    D&D 5E (2014) Hope for an open GSL?

    Mearls was relatively small potatoes (at WotC) at the time when 4e was made and launched. He is now the top dog, it does make a difference with regards to how much you can convince whoever needs the convincing. There is also the matter of being able to prove that the GSL failed. Anyway, Morrus...

    The "No-Flame-War" Pledge

    Apparently my thread, posted 40 minutes earlier, on the same subject has the plague. I feel so unloved. But since you are off to such a good start... I, Jack99, pledge to not make ENWorld's forums (or any other forums for that matter) a hellscape of flame wars. I will respect my fellow posters...

    Lets try to keep the flames to a minimum

    I know this might sound funny, coming from an alleged edition-warrior such as myself, but considering this is edition of dnd will have an open playtest, I think we ENworlders owe it to ourselves and everybody to get the most constructive debates going, in order to help WotC make the best damn...

    D&D 4E 4E/5E Transition issues

    The DDI doesn't cause a problem with transitions between editions, it fixes the problem. Before, every time there has been an edition change, the owner of DND have lost customers, customers that stayed with the previous edition and thus more or less stopped giving the owner their money. Now...

    Monster manual 1 and 2 errata

    Fair enough I guess. I obviously think it's easy, so maybe it's just a matter of me converting so many monsters' damage expression. The +5/tier was originally from a WotC-guy, irrc.

    Monster manual 1 and 2 errata

    Thanks for spotting my typo!

    Monster manual 1 and 2 errata

    I dont get the +5 damage per tier fix. I mean, the new math is level +8 for average damage, +25 for brutes or non-at-will powers, -25% for area powers. That's fairly simple to do, no?

    D&D 4E Reply if you love 4e

    Pffft, around here, I am so the original f4nboi! ;) Mostly because of this ^^^- 800 hours of DM'ing in 3 years speaks for itself. I <3 me some 4e.

    Monte Cook and 5e

    I have read it now, thanks. It does make sense. Apparently I was wrong about his moving to Seattle being connected with full-time work with WotC. Moderators might as well lock this thread, since hardly anyone is talking about the original topic. Piratecat

    Monte Cook and 5e

    Now, with all the talk about Monte and his possible involvement in the next edition of dnd, I figured this might be relevant. https://twitter.com/#!/MonteJCook/status/150121100930584576 For those of you too lazy to click, it's a Twitter message from Monte, saying that he is now full time in...

    Playing Essentials-Only

    Can't, the list includes description of all the feats, which would violate ENworlds posting rules. But toss me your email and I can mail it. This short message was brought to you by Tapatalk and my iPad

    Playing Essentials-Only

    I have been running an Essentials-only campaign for a while now. It started as a Dark Sun campaign, but as they hit paragon, they escaped from Athas. The Essentials-only approach has almost worked flawlessly, except for the feats. Both the players and I feel that there are just too few feats, so...

    D&D 4E iPlay4e Live now in the App Store and works offline

    Just bought it, to see if it was something for my players (got 3 who use iPad to handle their characters) - will definitely recommend the app.
