Closing this thread because it is in danger of devolving to the very silliness that the book burners espouse. I also question the value in having this thread at all - what value did it have other than adding "them and us-ness"? Honestly, we have 5e threads, 4e threads, pathfinder threads...

Y'know what? This thread started off being about 'surprising rules that people have found in 5e' but has turned into back and forth arguments about whether or not it is a game that people can have fun playing. As a result, I'm going to call this thread done for now and close it. Hopefully we...

Hi Jack, It's nice to see new people here - welcome to ENworld! But I must remind you of the code of practice that you signed up to when you joined - it is important for the civility of the site that people avoid making what amounts to personal attacks on one another, and you are steering very...

Best? No. Best for one particular style of wizard? Perhaps. An interesting choice? Certainly.

Hi Emerikol, I thought you might remember that if you've got a question about something in 'moderator voice' then the best thing is to PM the moderator rather than turn a bit of moderation into a discussion (something we don't normally allow for various reasons). It would also draw my...

Thanks Tony, 'ppreciate it! Cheers

Arguably some evidence that it doesn't matter comes from OD&D were it was the norm and D&D grew very well. This was when your 1d4 hp, single spell wizard had to earn 2500xp for second level and an Orc was only 25xp! We kept those guys going for weeks and weeks somehow ;) Agreed that there is a...

Tony, since you appear to have missed Umbrans point, I'll spell it out. Using terminology like h4ters again will earn you a suspension. If you can participate without choosing emotive language like that, fine. Otherwise you'll get suspended. Thanks

I want to play an Eldarin Rouge. Is that bad?

After 80+ pages I think this thread has probably had all the positive things said that are being said! and it is generating a lot of reported posts right now, so I'm closing it. Thanks

Oddly I find myself in a different place to most people here. I love reading PDFs on my retina iPad mini. It's a great size and nice and clear for me. True, that isn't for a table rules reference, paper is much better for that in my experience. However, I've bought many RPGs as PDF which I...

Well, I've never had a problem with going with what I personally think an intent is, rather than attempting to parse grammar precisely to do so. I wouldn't want to be in a position where I was deciding what the rule is for anyone else though. Cheers.

Either of which I'd be completely cool with. I think that over the last fifteen years two handed weapons have received too much love and been made too attractive in many ways. Fighting with a two handed weapon and using one of the other fighter styles could be very interesting.

FWIW I'd be running it that way - so 2d6 weapons trade higher average damage and more predictable damage for less likelihood of getting the GWF reroll on a 1-2. Cheers

The fighter two-weapon ability triggers off low damage - roll a 1 or a 2 and you get to re-roll the damage. So greataxe gets to reroll on 1 out of 6 attacks. greatsword and maul gets to reroll on 1 out of 36. Quite nice for two weapon fighters. edit: unless there is a rule that applies the...

Let's avoid personal attacks please. OK?

Thank you for editing your post to be more generous in your view. I like to think that ENWorld will continue to be a place to celebrate and discuss gaming, D&D of various editions, other kinds of games, media, story hours, art and so much more for many years to come. I promise that I will make...

I'll look at the books when they are out and then choose. They'll have to knock my socks off to cause a purchase though :)

I'm afraid I don't see how this is baiting, it is just expressing an opinion - if it isn't an opinion that someone happens to agree with, just don't reply to this thread. Nothing special to see here.
