You are right in that a Duergar would need a very good reason to be adventuring. Being sensitive to sunlight, they would rather stay in the Underdark their whole lives if they can help it. Mechanically, that's the reason I have not seen anyone roll a Duergar/Drow either, its just too big of a...

Its natural for people to powergame, min-max etc. When there are numbers, rules, people will eventually figure out the best option. Even if they are mechanically equal, people will figure out the game's meta and still rank some higher than others. But D&D has a different balancing compared to...

When a Valor Bard gains Magical Secrets upon reaching level 10, nobody asks him if he stays single class because of mechanical power, or take levels in Fighter since he has been bashing people with weapons more than being bardy. Do you see how silly your question is?

A wise man once said, if the problem can be solved by throwing more monsters at it, its not really a problem. This one is clearly one of them.

I actually started with Milestone leveling before moving on to the standard XP gains. My DM somehow preferred XP. But its not like you can't mix the two; my DM did instantly push us from level 9 to 10 for the final session of the season. We will be starting season 2 at level 11. Milestone does...

I'm fine with class stereotypes, male fighter/female wizard don't bother me. Stereotypes exist because they are true, and men are generally stronger than women. Don't argue with me on this, because I am right. I will point to sports and athletic records in history to prove my point. Same goes...

Just one Conjure Animal spells have you all shaking? What a bunch of rookies. I'm going to hit Level 5 soon, and my DM already gave my druid a Staff of the Python, and a Bag of Tricks (Gray). I sure hope he can handle my beast army of Conjure Animals, a Giant Constrictor Snake, and possible Dire...

Wow thread necro. Not sure if this will ever come up since i am currently playing a druid, but if it does, I'm going to direct my DM to this thread, hope he gets a headache from this and decide to do the easier option: Disintegrate the druid's ally.

What is JC smoking? I went to a session 0 yesterday, and almost everyone rolled vhuman with Sharpshooter feats.

I wouldn't count on D&D class/subclasses to have the same meaning as whatever they sound like. I mean, just look at the Bard. Technically, bards refer to poets or musicians, but in D&D they are musical casters.

Its common knowledge that most people don't play 100% vanilla dnd, unless you are playing AL. So what house rules have you or your DM implement that have made your character just the way you wanted it to be? Mine was as the UA Mystic class, playing a Soul Knife. I felt very unsatisfied with my...

Most of them require concentration too, so your combo will not work.

Ya think?

The best use of this spell is to use it in your character back story to justify playing a different race from race-specific subclasses like Bladesinger. 'Well I used to be an Elf, then I died and got reincarnated into a Tabaxi...'

I think too many people have the wrong idea of how a druid should behave. They are not the tree-hugging, animal-loving, urban-hating people that you would believe them to be. I am playing a druid, and i too have a pretty judgmental group of party members. There was once, our party was ambushed...

I just had a session where the fight was against 6 humans in a tight space. I rolled 18 on initiative, and I felt good, thinking I would go first and proceed to Fireball the crap out of those dummies. But my DM rolled group initiative for all of them, and got a nat 20. Obviously, they all went...

Boring. Give us more feats already.

Boring. Give us more feats already.

Most of your understanding of the ability is correct, I think. Though I'm not sure what is the actual intent, and nowhere says that it can't be healed. All the usual combat rules are assumed to apply to the hound unless otherwise stated. It does seem silly that a 'creature of darkness' can't...

I don't know what is that, but I want it.
