    D&D General What elements does D&D need to keep?

    I dunno, I think leveling is fun, and three classes that you are expected to multiclass gives you a nice simple choice at every level, while allowing mix and match of abilities within those classes (skills for expert, fighting styles and manuvers for martial, and spells for mystic) in order to...

    D&D General What elements does D&D need to keep?

    I should have phrased it "hit a nerve" not "on to something". The "I would never play this game, and I would encourage everyone I know to boycott it." reaction and supporting likes was a bit surprising to me, and I'm wondering who/what I triggered? Wasn't expecting that level of vehemence in a...

    Seems like I might be on to something if this off the cuff idea has already triggered an enraged holy war against it? :rolleyes:

    D&D General What elements does D&D need to keep?

    You don't really need any archetypes defined by subclasses etc. You have access to all spells as a mystic. Your spell choice is your archetype. Want to be a life cleric? Pick some healing spells. Want to be a heal wizard? Pick the same spells, but a different backround. Want to be healing...

    None of this is likely to happen, have you read the thread concept?

    D&D General What elements does D&D need to keep?

    I think D&D could get by with 3 Character Classes, Mystic, Martial and Expert being focused on Magic, Fighting and Skills respectively. Or INT/WIS, STR/CON, and DEX,CHA more loosely. Combined concepts, half casters, holy warriors, etc would be all just created by Multiclassing a level or two...

    D&D 5E (2014) My Six Favorite Candlekeep Mysteries

    There are demonstrated 5E way to make SOME spell effects permanent in 5E. Typically either to cast the same spell using a 9th level slot (some spells) or cast the same spell in the same place every day for a year. Only a few spells have this scaling.

    D&D General What Have You Liked Most About Each Edition (+)

    AD&D - Introduction to the Game, Played the most (ages ago). Rough edges, and Dumbly complex subsystems, but great Fun. 2nd Edition - Bought the beautiful setting books and dreamed, but never had time play much anymore 3E & Friends - my great RPG-less gap is here. I thought those WotC guys...

    D&D 5E (2014) Too Few Player Options During Combat?

    (Then come up with a ruling on the spot) Or use some of the optional rules, or any one of the third party martial maneuvres rulesets. Or just give all your fighters a couple battlemaster maneuvers, or a feat or two for free?

    D&D 5E (2014) Too Few Player Options During Combat?

    If you fight your battles against faceless enemies on a featureless plane with a Champion fighter, sure.

    Who is the quintessential D&D artist?

    If I had a 4th vote, would vote Parkinson... He did the mounted Tuigan warrior on the Forgotten Realms grey box cover, and Lord Soth's charge in Dragonlance. The king of the hyperrealists in 2nd ed.

    Who is the quintessential D&D artist?

    Team Easley! First really world class artist on the team as far as I am concerned. Now there are many at that level connected to D&D now, but Easley stood head and shoulders above the other guys back then IMHO. (Also voted for Brom and Tyler Jacobson, who are both unbelievably talented).
