    Level Up (A5E) Bucklers

    The normal light shield uses your hand but you can modify a light shield for +25gp "hands free" to have the shield hand "free" (you can't wield weapons with this hand or throw the shield)

    Level Up (A5E) Visual Art Speciality and touch spells?

    Counterquestion... does a spell have to have a Material Component that you can exchange for a Spell Focus or can you add a Spell Focus to any of your spells?

    3PP Release New 3PP release: Manual of Adventurous Resources: Complete! AVAILABLE NOW!

    Boo on me working today... If I didn't I'd have been at home to receive the printed book. Now I have to wait till monday (at least) to get the package from the post office myself :(

    Homebrew Making a time gargoyle (weeping angel)

    To me the weeping angels are somewhat of a kitchen sink with regards to their abilities. Every time they appeared they had different motivations/powers/... But timelocked and quantum state look good. Timelocked might just be the answer why people don't just destroy the angels while someone...

    Level Up (A5E) Quick Question about Lean Into It

    Since this applies to all your melee weapon attacks that you make until the start of your next turn (including Opportunity attacks) it applies to all your attacks including those on the turn where you activate the maneuver. Since there is no "your attacks deal no damage" clause the knocking...

    Level Up (A5E) Thoughts on A5E classes from your table(s)?

    It only costs the bard a reaction if he wants to activate a new hymn but if it is still active (or sustained) they can just declare a target whenever. Regarding instrument specialties and hymns... May I suggest cards for them? The current hymn (with all the info on the card) on the table at the...

    a5e.tools Errata & A5E.tools

    It's almost identical. "Normal" Magic Resistance works against spells and magical effects and not just spells (and the Magic Resistance isn't limited to spells cast within 30 feet)

    Level Up (A5E) Some questions about druid rules interactions

    A shield is carried equipment that disappears (and is effectively ignored) The Wild Shape AC is listed in the rules (or the form you take if that is better). Even things like rings/amulets/... or other "permanent" effects that you just have to carry won't stay active once you shift forms.

    Level Up (A5E) Some questions about druid rules interactions

    Regarding 1: Since it never left your hand I'd still allow you to have it ready after turning back if you changed back fast enough. Regarding 2. If the only things you could do would be Dash, Disengage or Dodge you'd be immobile unless you spent your action to Dash to get any movement...

    Level Up (A5E) The Marshal Daring Assault feature, is it as strong as I think it is?

    Also... the character who uses the effect has to be within the Commanding Presence, so relatively near the Marshal, making it easier for area attacks from enemies to target both together.

    3PP Release Two New Releases! The Disciple Class and Twists of Fate

    I browsed a bit over the disciple yesterday and wondered why this (obviously martial) class doesn't use the mechanism that all A5E martials (and even some "adjacent" get)... Exertion. All the disciplines look like they could be the basis for a combat tradition (and some of the effects remind me...

    Level Up (A5E) Marshalls with Extra attack

    My Vox Savant (who recently MCed into Marshal because talk can only help you so far in Hell) could maybe use one of these in 2-3 levels (and maybe even get to the second one if the DM allows me to exchange one of my previous feats) just before the campaign ends. Currently the Spymaster (from...

    Level Up (A5E) Meet Gywven, Dwarf Rogue

    Have you seen the video where a sleeping/dozing dad almost reflexively catches his baby that falls from the couch?

    Level Up (A5E) Difficult terrain in creature's space

    A5E has a note in "Combat in Movement" that blocks movement through a creature's space unless the creature allows moving through it. The only other way everyone can try is "Overrun" and that doesn't mention anything that your movement is hindered

    Level Up (A5E) Basic artificer question

    If your Narrator allows you a generic "Cantrip Wand" schematic (that infusions might need a nonconsumed spell scroll of the specific cantrip) you can also increase your "at-will" potential greatly. But this is an uncommon item, so you need level 3 to craft/infuse/... it.

    Level Up (A5E) Basic artificer question

    Also note that while an infusion is active it acts just like a normal magic item (including using it as a component to build another item) Alchemical Prodigy gives you a headstart on schematics for potions. Also remember, an Artificer just needs to study a magic item for an hour to try to find...

    Level Up (A5E) Are Bard Hymns Overpowered?

    I like the idea of the Hymn but it really isn't easy to explain (especially with archetypes and higher level class features changing the basics of the hymns) An idea to think about the Hymn in game could be to have them printed out (like spell cards) and once the bard starts a hymn just put it...

    Level Up (A5E) Are Bard Hymns Overpowered?

    First: You expend one BI when you start the Hymn, so if you never declare a target and just sustain the Hymn you have just "wasted" this BI. You don't need a Reaction to choose a target ("You may choose to target a creature at any point, but after targeting a battle hymn its target cannot be...
