    D&D 5E (2014) The Advenurer's Guide to Abusing Monsters ( Ultimate monster utility compendium )

    Love this guide and the concept as a whole. I never considered using those spells in such a manner and it opens up so many options! Particularly the flail snail so you can fund the components/materials the Azers need is quite clever. I can't wait for monsters to be released so this can be...

    D&D 5E (2014) ForgedAnvil D&D 5E Character Generator

    I can't seem to find where I can select the two lvl 1 ritual spells that the Book of Ancient Secrets invocation should give the warlock, the spellcasting tab does let me pick 3 cantrips for the warlock pact of the tome though. (Currently using V2. Beta build 7)

    D&D 5E (2014) Need help creating backstory for my Lvl 8 5E Warforged Psionic Fighter.

    When in doubt regarding psionic powers, blame mindflayers :P also props for the deadpool-esque naming convention, very flavorful

    D&D 5E (2014) ForgedAnvil D&D 5E Character Generator

    There seems to be some room issue when it comes to class features and multiclassing beyond two classes, is there a way to fix that?

    D&D 5E (2014) What single new class would you like to see?

    I say to hell with base classes and sub classes, give us something for our existing chars, give us prestige classes. The Unearthed Arcana from wizards gave a very appealing idea of how prestige classes could work but only did so for the magic using classes for playtesting, a prestige class for...

    Gahh!! Wild shape!?

    Look at moon circle druid, opens up a lot of more potent wild shape options, dino's, elephants, elementals, all the good stuff.

    Fighter build advice

    The DM is the type to use a wide scale of mobs to fight the party so that there's always a challenge, he does however have a tendency to upscale encounters. (example: we handled a young adult green dragon pretty easily at lvl 3, next encounter had us fighting a worg, an owl bear and quite a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Restrained + Enlarge

    Well, the casters intent in the situation is to let the restrained person break free, last session a player was captured and they want to go in and save him

    D&D 5E (2014) Restrained + Enlarge

    What do you think happens if someones tied up with a rope and gets enlarge cast on them? I've been looking for some presidence on this matter in the sage advice but haven't had any luck. Would the rope break, the spell fail or the rope grow with the targeted creature?

    D&D 5E (2014) GRAPPLING, FEAT AND DEX

    Why not houserule that the feat allows them to initiate a grapple with dex, but then need strength/acrobatics to maintain the grapple. That way you simulate the 'slipperyness' and agile movements of a dex heavy char getting into a grapple without making it overpowered or screwing over str based...

    I currently intend to switch to paladin entirely, it's why I'm rather reluctant to get lvl 5 fighter because I'd get that anyway from paladin.

    Fighter build advice

    This is a very good point..I could go for the Heavy Armor Master feat and swap out the parry maneuver with commanders strike (since I'd get damage reduction from the feat), thereby boosting my chars ability as a tank cause he can reduce damage more then four times, and boosting the parties dps...

    Fighter build advice

    Extra attacks for the rogue wouldn't be that effective, he moves in, attacks and moves back again. So he'd be out of range already, not to mention he's limited to only one sneak attack per turn. Waiting till level 8 for extra attack would be okay in all honesty, my role isn't to dish out damage...

    Fighter build advice

    So the party just reached level 4 and I'm caught between three choices I'm hoping to get some advice on. First of all it's important to clarify the party's composition as it's a little unorthodox: we have a rogue (arcane trickster) bard (knowledge) sorcerer (draconic origin) monk (shadow path)...
