    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    I agree we don't want to go to the excavation, and rescuing the prisoners is the Colonel's priority. I see the room with the doors closed at CB-CK 65-70 on the last map, and it would probably make sense to check it out, if there were appetite to do so. I want to know what's there, even if the...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel is poised to strike, when the echo of two shots rings in his ear, as Doc fires past him and into the heart of the giant before him. The giant's body collapses in front of him. "Good shooting, Doc," says the Colonel before stepping over the corpse to make a quick recce of this room...

    D&D 5E (2014) How Do You Handle Mounted Combat in Tight Spaces?

    If I make a character that rides horses, then I fully understand that I may not be able to do so when in a basement somewhere. Players can make choices to mitigate that (be small and ride a Mastiff) but in my view it's unreasonable to expect that a build deliberately designed around a large...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    So I thought the Colonel was in pretty good shape: during the short rest he was nearly at full, here. I sort of like him being completely clocked by this guy, though. I will assume that he's not down to 1 and attack, but if I'm wrong or have made a mistake, that of course is fine, and I'll live...

    D&D 5E (2024) Wizard subclasses are a missed opportunity.

    In a parallel universe, this might have been awesome.

    That's just silly!

    D&D General The Death of DIP feats...

    As for the general point: I suspect all of these feats were omitted because (a) they weren't going to be origin feats, and (b) if ported over as is, they couldn't simply add +1 ASI, which all the general feats offer, in one form or another (I'm not saying that's my position, but it's the...

    D&D General The Death of DIP feats...

    I have thoughts on your point generally, but I'll start with this, since I do not see how this is at all funky or unclear. If you play with a DM that allows you to take the "Fighting Initiate" Feat from Tasha's, then taking the feat at 4th level or above gives you the ability to choose any of...

    D&D 5E (2024) Should paladin's aura of protection be "normalized" a little?

    Yes -- absolutely true. If you're playing with just the PHB 2024 (which is how I'm thinking of things), then you need to be Human or have the Guide background for Shillelagh, and Guide does not include a Charisma boost. I understand that the DMG will probably allow people to workout things...

    D&D 5E (2024) Should paladin's aura of protection be "normalized" a little?

    It's fine as it is. You wait 7 levels for it to come online, and then you, as a paladin, are rewarded by an ability that helps your whole party. That's the best outcome possible. No one is incentivized to do a max CHA build, and (with point buy) I think it would be rare for a charisma to be...

    I'm sorry -- I messed up my move. It's one round, and I'll focus next round. It's clear I've made a mistake, but will be betterin round 2.

    not closing the door, but trying to block any exits. I should have typed CO instead of CN. TYhe colonel is trying to draw fire and prevent anyone leaving the room. Sorry if that isn't clear. I was delinquent and wanted to post right away.

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel steps forward and blocks the door, preventing the giants from getting out of their room. Keep them in there, he thinks, and they'll not hurt anyone. With his booming voice he steps into the doorway, and smiles. No one is gettingpast hi, and he is determined to dodge any of their...

    D&D 5E (2024) Can you get resistance to all 13 damage types?

    Of course it is -- it's not a character I would choose to play. I was merely answering your question of getting resistance to get them all.

    D&D 5E (2024) Can you get resistance to all 13 damage types?

    So here's a way to get resistance to all by level 9: Wildheart Barbarian 3: while Raigng has all but Force, Necrotic Psychic, or Raidant. How to get the rest? Aasimar has resistance to Necrotic and Radiant Aberrant Sorcerer 6 has resistance to Psychic That's everything except Force using the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Abusing True Strike 2024

    That's true, but it means you need to invest in two separate attack stats. Yes -- forgot to say. Exactly.
