    D&D 5E (2014) Mental prison; power creep, typo or working as intended

    I see where you’re coming from. I don’t really agree though. Teleport is specifically called out as exempt from opportunity attacks. It doesn’t offer the mechanical or fluff reasoning. I think people are taking that specific instance and extrapolating back to say teleporting is not movement...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mental prison; power creep, typo or working as intended

    Not simply superior to disintegrate for straight damage, is that what you mean? Why would teleportation (misty step, teleport, plane shift, blink, etc) escape this spell? The text says: If the target is moved out of the illusion, makes a melee attack through it, or reaches any part of its...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mental prison; power creep, typo or working as intended

    Okay, lets take it down a notch. I never said anyone's game is going to be irreparably broken with one spell. But: Disintegrate to me is a bit like Fireball/Lightning Bolt in that they are iconic spells, and intentionally do more damage than typical spells of it's level. So looking at it...

    D&D 5E (2014) Booming blade and green flame blade for clerics

    I believe these cantrips were directed to melee oriented spell casters, but were only added to wizard, sorcerer and warlock spell lists. They seem perfectly suited for clerics and I’ve seen many guides and threads describing the various ways to obtskn these cantrips for clerics: would it break...

    D&D 5E (2014) Reckless Attack / Mirror Image

    There have been many huge discussions in many forums about Mirror Image. In my opinion, the best, most consistent interpretation is that Mirror Image is basically a personal defensive buff against attacks (attack = uses an attack roll; not, for example, needing a saving throw to avoid).
