    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 - Do magic weapons bypass resistance now?

    IMO "get magic weapon" was never a puzzle. It's not like going out of your way to find wolfbane, adding silver to your weapons, or coating it in wyvern venom. You would simply use any +1 weapon you could find as soon as you could. Irrelevant of what creature you where against. Also, if your...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 - Do magic weapons bypass resistance now?

    Not that I'm aware of. Even the Rakshasa lost it's weapon resistance, replaced with double the hit points.

    They no longer help beyond the +1. But less monsters have BPS resistance.

    My guess is they just started it. Put the changes out as the next batch goes to the printer. That said, it's still going to take a while before they are in circulation.

    D&D 5E (2024) Multiclassing: Slots and Prepared Spells

    not sure why that matters Eldritch knight/ arcane Trickster draw from the same list, but won't get high level spells. If it's a level you can prepare as a single class wizard. Maybe? I guess it depends on if you consider "replacing" different from "preparing". No idea why that second...

    D&D 5E (2024) Multiclassing: Slots and Prepared Spells

    Correct. As a level 3 wizard would. And a level 3 wizard only has level 2 slots, and thus can only prepare level 2 spells. Multiclass rules don't say anything about casting rituals from your book however. Or replacing spells you already had prepared. But I'm sure the intention is to limit...

    IMO Optimizer: enjoys doing math and puzzles. Power Gamer: enjoys being more powerful than others. You can be one or the other, or both. You can generally tell the difference by suggesting they can play a support build. an optimizer might maximize healing. A power gamer might say no. both they...

    A moment too late, but the wizard subclass Savant features should not say. "The chosen spell must be of a level for which you have spell slots." Should be "A level you can prepare" Because multiclassing.

    D&D 5E (2024) The New Direct Damage Spells You Should Be Using.

    Truestike has an 80' range, 360 with disadvantage. 100' if you get martial weapons. And nothing stops you from swapping to melee if needed. Depens on the party too. I'm in a group with a pike polearm master wild heart barbarian (bonus action dash + disengage, reaction push), and a ranged...

    D&D 5E (2024) Multiclassing: Slots and Prepared Spells

    No. Multiclass rules don't mention the spell book at all. It only indirectly applies with prepared spells, which is the same as an appropriate level wizard.

    I'm not sure i can sell you it as the only damage cantrip, there are just too many ways for it to be useless. But i could definitely see it as a pair. Possibly using it 70% of the time, with sorcerer's burst as the other 30%. And I do wonder about mind sliver as well, for being the most...

    In 2014 the was a loophole about writing higher spells to a spell book, but it looks like that was fixed for 2024. "Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots, as shown in the Wizard Features table." "you can copy it into your spellbook if it’s of a level you can...

    By looking at the wizard class as if you where a single class wizard.

    Each class has it's own seprate prepared spells restricted by the class level. Wizard 3 can prepared level 2 wizars spells. You combine the slots as per the multiclass table (except warlock). You can any cast prepared spell in any slot (including warlock). Which leads to upcasting spells...
