    D&D 5E (2014) I Don't Like Damage On A Miss

    Ok then maybe it just needs a limit? You can do this miss hit x amount of times per day?

    D&D 5E (2014) I Don't Like Damage On A Miss

    If the BBEG hasn't managed to kill the party while they've managed to miss him every sing attack... then I think there's more wrong with this fight then the fighter miss hit... I'm picturing two guys like the mole man from the simpsons standing there boxing...

    D&D 5E (2014) I Don't Like Damage On A Miss

    So the answer would be for them to make it the Fighter does damage on a miss unless the target has fewer HPs then the total damage done. But then why should the Wizard be allowed to kill someone even when they "miss" with a fireball? (The target saves.) (How come no one ever called THAT...

    They're pretty easy questions... Not a lot of open endedness that you would need to think about too much.

    The Playtest Agreement

    The agreement does not- it doesn't have to. It's a legal term meaning profit. You are getting MORE legal. You are looking at it in terms of a contract, not an agreement. They're leading and.. well you're off somewhere doing the robot or something. :P It's not a big deal- you are just making...

    The Playtest Agreement

    Benefit in this case means profit. Don't try to do that stuff and profit. Also note- they indicate pretty much what will happen should you violate the OPTA... They're revoke the OPTA (essentially kicking you out of playtesting). I think you're getting a bit too legal where no such thing...

    Surprise (-20 Init) the penalty that won’t go away

    Or upon meeting some circumstance(s). I'm not a big fan of it just hurts your initiative- why not make it a condition similar to stunned? (Or just say surprised creatures are effectively stunned.) The condition would impose some sort of penalty (disadvantage being one of them, or maybe grants...

    Surprise (-20 Init) the penalty that won’t go away

    I like how 4e made it a condition. They should keep it being a condition.

    Healing Fully With Rest - Is It Really That Big of a Deal?

    Yeah I don't personally use a wound system, and never have (only very rarely back in my 2e days of crazy critical hits...) I also like HPs for their simplicity- I just have a hard time seeing how they can be seen as any sort of physical injury. It just doesn't make any sense to me. Trying to...

    Healing Fully With Rest - Is It Really That Big of a Deal?

    I have a lot of trouble picturing D&D characters being seriously injured period. Hit Points are just terrible if you're trying to represent physical injury. Characters can still jump, run, attack, think, etc at full ability no matter how many HP they're missing. THAT to me doesn't seem like...

    Is this WotC's pipe dream?

    I guess I'm a sparkly snowflake. I don't choose a rule-set and then dig in against all change forevermore... If a game is fun I will probably end up playing it.

    Under what conditions would you give advantage/disadvantage?

    I'm kind of hoping they don't have a list... I like the idea of it being fully open ended. Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk 2

    What's with weapon percentages?

    Combat issues: slayer + at-will magic missile.

    Will the attack be as boring against enemies that aren't as weak as kobolds? Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk 2

    The Playtest Fighter

    I agree the game needs "Easy Mode" characters... But I also think it shouldn't just default to the fighter. Give me an easy mode Cleric, Wizard, and Thief as well.

    Monsters with spell lists is not a good sign

    Yeah add me as someone who wants to see: All monster abilities in one place. Monsters that don't have to use the same rules as PCs.

    Aesthetic vrs Stat Build Possible?

    I think we're kind of along the same grounds... Trouble is I think you're thinking with the mindset of a stats guy. ;) So you the Aesthetic guy wants the price of the Mace higher... It's a mace it SHOULD be more expensive then a lump of wood. But now the stats guy says wait, what reason do I...

    Aesthetic vrs Stat Build Possible?

    But there again... Aesthetically speaking, they're both things used for thumping people so the damage shouldn't be different, but obviously the mace is made of metal, so it should be more expensive. So if you're designing for stats now you say oh wait, but now there's no reason I should buy...
