    D&D General Cthulhu by Torchlight Brings Mythos To D&D

    For those who don't read the full thread, this is the reason it is DNDBeyond only. It wasn't WotC's decision.

    D&D General Did 5e 2024 Not meet the economic goals set, and if not, why not?

    I have been scouring through his messages, but I can't find confirmation on the Q1 one.

    It's not staying flat, D&D is still growing.

    D&D General Have you ever retired a character?

    I had been playing a PC for 4 years, and I felt like her story was done. I had lost the interest in her for a while. She was an elderly dwarf, so in agreement with the DM, I rolled a d100 after every long rest to see if she’d pass in her sleep. Right when we saved her home town and I had cool...

    A Deep Dive in D&D: Dragon Delves

    It should be alright, only the bugbears and the hag are an issue, the rest are animated candy.

    Damn, I stand corrected, my bad! I was so sure this spell didn’t have that because of BG3…

    You are spreading misinformation. There is no such thing as alignment affecting spells or features in the 2024 Player Handbook. As for alignment. In adventures they give us context anyway, so we don’t really need them. I couldn’t care less personally.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Gladiator: The Narrative Dissonance

    5.5 didn’t bloat any apart from legendary monsters and monsters who lost b/p/s damage resistance. For some data analysis, look for Blogofholding and the Finished Book.

    D&D General Did 5e 2024 Not meet the economic goals set, and if not, why not?

    I get it. It's just that so far, my experience is that PC's have gotten a bit stronger at level 1, but overall the balance between classes and subclasses is a LOT better. Some of the spiky bits have been filed off, like Stunning Strike and Divine Smite spam. The big improvement is that the...

    D&D General Did 5e 2024 Not meet the economic goals set, and if not, why not?

    How deep do you want to dig your grave? The encounter building thread was made BEFORE the release of the 2024 DMG. And then you pretend like I am the fool? I don't like how smug you are about this either, and I hope you learn some humility.

    D&D General Did 5e 2024 Not meet the economic goals set, and if not, why not?

    Yes, but what does this have to do with the revision? I understand this. If anything, I see a lot of people running it without the other supplements. Are we now against adding player options? I just limit options based on the campaign setting, but I really don't get where we are going with...

    D&D General Did 5e 2024 Not meet the economic goals set, and if not, why not?

    I don’t see the issue. They make new options, and a few of them are more powerful in certain situations. I think you’re just talking about an increase in options? I don’t understand what this has to do with the revision. That thread doesn’t talk about experiences using the new monsters and...

    D&D General Did 5e 2024 Not meet the economic goals set, and if not, why not?

    The thing is, there isn't that much power creep. In my experience, the difference is the biggest at level 1 because of origin feats and weapon masteries, but they even out over the levels. My lvl 12 bard didn't feel any different after transitioning to 2024 D&D, except that she was actually...

    A lot of the rules is out there for free, and people ar happy to teach you. If you are interested, I run one-shots from time to time. Could be fun!

    D&D General Did 5e 2024 Not meet the economic goals set, and if not, why not?

    Opposed checks were tedious and stacked in the PC’s favor to an insane degree. It was easy for a barbarian to make every grapple check with +5 and advantage while the enemies only had +1 to +3. This only got worse at higher levels, when the PC’s bonus grew with proficiency, and less than 1% of...

    Playing the game is the most important thing to me. Have you tried the revision yet?

    I am not insisting that. I just think it would have given some more clarity. Please don’t put words in my mouth.

    A lot of people who have played it agree with it being an improvement.

    A Deep Dive in D&D: Dragon Delves

    There isn't. Let me know if anyone finds a statement or video fragment. I also think it should have clearly stated that the 2024 books should be used for this book.

    Which is fine. They did not promise forward compatibility.
