Hey now, don't go putting my favorite class on blast! Granted...they can be REAL one trick ponies before they get that third spell slot, but they're steady damage dealers at all levels. I've played several, and I almost never feel like I'm not making a significant difference in the outcome of...

The inherent downside to this [ESPECIALLY if they're running a pre gen] is that it won't take into account this non-standard way of leveling. Monsters and encounters will get tougher and tougher without the PCs gaining the needed tools to overcome the challenges, which will only lead to...

Here's probably a better point: Both of the Unarmored defense abilities in the PHB specifically separate Armor and Shields Barbarian UAD: "While you are not wearing any armor, your Armor Class equals 10 + your dexterity modifier + your constitution modifier. You can use a shield and still gain...

no, you didn't http://www.sageadvice.eu/2014/09/01/reach-weapons-10/

DAMN YOU PARAXIS! You beat me to it :)

Yep, totally works. The only times when AC increases do NOT stack are when one of them gives you a new way to calculate your AC. Mage armor sets your Base AC to 13+Dex Monks have a Base AC of 10+Dex+Wis Barbarians have a base AC of 10+Dex+con Any suit of armor changes your Base AC to a new...

It all comes down to what each style benefits from and what each style is designed to do. GWF - Big damage, Low AC S&B - Low damage, High AC TWF - Mid Damage, Mid AC I think GWF and Shield master are both fantastic for playing up the style of each type of fighter. TWF kinda loses out, because...

My point wasn't actually about the combo we are currently talking about. My point was that, with one feat, you can achieve everything you're doing with two feats and a fighting style. The k ly difference is that you're using a quarterstaff Inoted of a longsword. Something is rotten in denmark.

I'm well aware. You missed where I said it was a champion fighter and he had a second fighting style. All the MORE reason why the fact that you can do something similar with one feat is totally broken.

So, Here's ANOTHER interesting thing to think about: Let's give this whole mess to a Champion who then also takes the Dueling fighting style, which has already been stated numerous times to work with a shield in the off hand. Well, the Shield is being used as an improvised weapon, so that...

Edit: Only one of the three. Certainly taking cantrips Cantrips - Spare the Dying - Be the worlds most amazing paramedic. - Minor Illusion - Entertaining in a million ways. - Eldritch Blast - Who the hell DOESN'T want to be able to shoot lasers from their hands/eyes/mouth/wherever?

My standard thing at my table (And that many DM's have picked up off me over time) is a standard array of 18 16 14 12 10 8, before racial modifiers. It's quite powerful, and totally leads to characters having a 20 in a stat at the start of the game, but I haven't found this to break much of...

Howdy Folks! Here again with another fun Warlock Patron: The Beacon! http://www.enworld.org/forum/5earchetypes/showentry.php?e=117 Take a look at it and tell me what you think!

Have you actually played a ranger? At my tables, they are almost always the Highest DPS characters in the party, and when it comes to the "lets go exploring through the woods!" portion of the game, the Ranger is your best friend. I don't mind this, since I didn't understand why they didn't get...

YOU....are 100% right. Mother of god.

The feat doesn't help. Xbow expert specifies ranged weapon attacks. EB is not that.

I don't see how adding in One more thing you can do a round makes it overly complex. You get an action, a move, and maybe a bonus action if something permits it. That's about as uncomplicated as it gets. in fact, linking it to specific abilities only makes it MORE complex than it was before...

Hey folks, just posted this awesome new thing here: http://www.enworld.org/forum/5earchetypes/showentry.php?e=97&catid=1 It's cheesy, its OP, and it's designed to be used in a vacuum, but its also a lot of fun! If you had some good ideas for balancing it out for normal play, I'd love the...

I'd like to point out that a crossbow focused fighter can VASTLY outstrip a Warlock on DPR, especially when we get to talking about Feats and/or magic items For comparison, i'll do a level 20 warlock with Agonizing blast and 20 Cha and Hex and a Level 20 fighter with 20 Dex and the Archery...

The first 5e Game I played in, I played a tiefling warlock. CG, nobleman, loved the people. I played his powers up as a birthright, as he had been born into a human family after Asmodus used his great-great-great- whatever grandmother as a consort. As his parents were ashamed of him, they locked...
