    It is about group buffs. That's what a cartographer does IRL. Makes stuff to help other people. Cast free Fairy Fire, teleport away from opportunity attacks, and shoot a +1 crossbow with Truestrike and advantage. Healing Word when an ally goes down even in the fog.

    D&D 5E (2024) Its The Same Game Right? 5.0 Options in 5.5

    I wouldn't say many. Probably less than the number of things errata'd. And you can add Shepard druids to that list.

    D&D 5E (2024) Its The Same Game Right? 5.0 Options in 5.5

    PHB2 12 new classes with 4 new subclasses each. Can be (and we have) played along side any of the PHB1 classes without any issues. Not very original new classes. But it's not any more game changing than adding in Artificers or whatever.

    D&D 5E (2024) Which class is the most durable (level 1)?

    Both Fighter and Barbarian (and paladin) can easily start with 16 AC, 18 with a shield. Heavy armor can upgrade to 17 with money, maybe by level 3, but doesn't start with it.

    D&D General Dual Wielder, Two-weapon Fighting, Nick

    No. You need 2 light weapons. Light Weapon property (formerly two weapon fighting) requires a bonus action, no mod to damage. Anyone can do it. Nick removes the bonus action. It's now part of your Attack Action (important for some feature, including drawing a weapon). Still no mod. Dual...

    D&D 5E (2024) Question: I have players using dnd beyond char creators, will it be 2024?

    IMO, it makes more sense that 2 characters cast spells differently than the exact same ones. But sure, it could be confusing for the players.

    Just going to point out that there is no issue running a mix of 2014 and 2024.

    D&D 5E (2014) Giving monsters more (unlimited?) reactions in one turn

    Sure. But my point was that there are already official monsters with multiple reactions. Also, D&D is a game of make believe. So your allowed to make up whatever you want (as long as it doesn't ruin the fun for others).

    D&D 5E (2024) Which class is the most durable (level 1)?

    You can. It's 9 points to have a 15. *3 = 27 points. and +1/+1/+1 as your background. = 16/16/16/8/8/8 I'd would generally wouldn't recommend going with 8 wis, bit it's a perfectly legal array. (Works for a monk though, 16 Dex, 16 Con, 16 Wis)

    D&D 5E (2024) Which class is the most durable (level 1)?

    You missed that half damage is more than double, because you round down. If you got hit 5 times for 5 damage, you only took 20 total damage. Also a healing word on a Barbarian is likely to be 2 hits instead of 1.
