You have to spend your action each turn casting the spell. You can still move, use bonus actions, or use reactions while casting a spell that takes longer than 1 action. You wouldn't be sneaky chanting whilst walking for 10 minutes, but you certainly aren't immobile.

Basically, the sunlight is smothered that is within the area of Darkness. The sunblade itself is not dispelled and it cannot dispel the darkness as darkness only has special interactions with light from SPELLS. So your blade is still working, but there is no sunlight within the darkness. You...

3.5 Cleric, Choosing two domains and all the options available really felt like you could create a unique persona that was also flavored their mechanical abilities. Also you know.. you got decent BAB, lots of spells, heavy armor.. uhh honestly they were probably a bit much.

Simply put, way too powerful, even if it gets more adventurers out of the -1 int zone. Probably easier and safer to just have it require 14+ int and increase crit range by 1. Having a crit range of 15-20 would definitely move INT to secondary stat for rogues who get a lot out of critting...

From current perspective, it appears that they are entwining their books to be crunch+fluff. SCAG, EE, Volo. All had a smattering of crunch and a lot of fluff. They want to sell stories, and have some crunchy bits thrown in to assist in that story. That said the blitz of Unearthed Arcana that...

While passive score usage is certainly optional. The same can be said of critical hits on a 20, or allowing the monk class or multiclassing. It doesn't say you may choose to use passive perception but its totally optional and a variant rule, it says use passive perception. You are free in your...

I would guess that the leg would be pulled with greater than 10 lbs of force, thereby overpowering the hand. Although if the hand moved it out of range of the controlling force, then its out of range.

Thank you for noting first that if a player specializes in detecting traps, that's what they should be able to do. I have seen more than one argument about Observant where people basically decided that passive perception doesn't exist for their games. Do you make every creature in the game get...

You could treat it as a quarterstaff or greatclub, both would allow shillelagh. However, the important thing is anytime you are speaking about mechanically introducing powers (as opposed to merely using creative methods of describing existing powers). Then you need to make sure to get your DM...

BTW. The latest FAQ is version 6.1 and is available at the DMSguild with the players or DMs pack for season 6. In the FAQ 6.1. http://www.dmsguild.com/product/199562/DD-Adventurers-League-FAQ&affiliate_id=925821

Please read the latest FAQ under "Do I have to select My +1 at character creation?" (Page 5) Nope. You don’t have to choose a +1 until you decide to use material from outside of the PHB. Once you have chosen your +1, however, that choice can’t be changed; it should be indicated on your...

First, you might glance at the Unearthed Arcana version already available: https://media.wizards.com/2016/dnd/downloads/2016_Fighter_UA_1205_1.pdf Stereotypes of samurai are discipline and honor. This could be implemented in game by granting advantage against fear, and possibly charm effects...

My observant perceptive cleric is going to have mad passive perception skills.

You know, you could have a second wizard in your party, then you effectively get 4 spells per level, as they can each copy each others homework (if time and money allow)

I don't know but can guess: Printing / Publishing rights to some of the materials may have been sold to another company. And until they expire (which they may not ever) WotC cannot legally allow another entity to print out the material. Whenever things seem arbitrarily limited, Guess its...

The FAQ specifically states you are under no obligation to choose +1 source material until you actually pickup features/classes/spells from that other source materials. Effectively, you don't have to pick until you need it. Also I believe it stats your background for your character is outside...

I allow them if for no other reason than the fact there's not other selections for high CR beasts. Thematically I pretend its just an animalistic dragon. Polymorph is a 4th level spell, meaning even the first access to it you are supposed to be able to use CR7 creatures. Also these big guys...

BTW guys, Tasha's Hideous Laughter is the spell to force creatures to lose concentration. Level 1, only restriction is Int 3+. Much lower spell level cast than dispel or counterspell.

I was kinda miffed when in the middle of a campaign I was told my goblin couldn't try to hide behind a wall because "They know you are here now". Next campaign I just skipped the whole thing and picked halfling, Hey a creature, I will attempt to hide, since my racial feature states explicitly...

Knowledge is actually really strong if you don't have a wizard in the party, you will basically be the only one with a good chance of passing history or arcana checks. The channel divinity to know any skill combined with guidance can give you a shot at most skill checks. Knowledge basically...
