    D&D 5E (2024) How do we feel about 2024 Feats? (Origin vs Others)

    An idea I had for Savage Attacker (not playtested, admittedly) was to give +3 damage in the first round of combat, if you hit. I thin kit isn't meaningfully stronger than what's already there, but (a) it will feel good when it hits, and (b) it ic entivizes a slightly different playstyle (you...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Magic Items, Crafting, Etc

    That's a kind of timekeeping I'm just not going to worry about, and it's not what PT is suggesting. If you imagine crafting magic items is the same as whittling, you do you.

    That's a really good point.

    D&D 5E (2024) How do we feel about 2024 Feats? (Origin vs Others)

    There are better and worse, but they all are viable, except (in my opinion) Savage Attacker, which I don't see ever taking. Crafter is an odd duck because the benefit is a purchasing power one. Do Diamonds as spell components get the discount? If so, it's a valuable feat. Otherwise no. I think...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Magic Items, Crafting, Etc

    It's a helpful summary, and the video has some good insights. My three main takeaways from PT's discussion, though, are these: 1. The idea of a wizard crafting through short rests and while riding a horse is silly and just wouldn't fly at my table. YMMV but I cannot believe that is what's...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel takes the sack of gems, to be shared later. It's a shame there's no personal items per se, but this, at least, is something that will be noticed (assuming the fire Giant -- Smolderheart, was it? -- was alive to notice its absence). The Colonel is ready to leave, when he sees Doc...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel wants to make sure that Doc is protected. Here was the forge, and it's clear the Fire Giant has it fuelled by some magic supply... curious that it even needs the billows, he thinks. Regardless, it would be satisfying to make away with something personal of the giant's, and so he...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    I agree we don't want to go to the excavation, and rescuing the prisoners is the Colonel's priority. I see the room with the doors closed at CB-CK 65-70 on the last map, and it would probably make sense to check it out, if there were appetite to do so. I want to know what's there, even if the...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel is poised to strike, when the echo of two shots rings in his ear, as Doc fires past him and into the heart of the giant before him. The giant's body collapses in front of him. "Good shooting, Doc," says the Colonel before stepping over the corpse to make a quick recce of this room...

    D&D 5E (2014) How Do You Handle Mounted Combat in Tight Spaces?

    If I make a character that rides horses, then I fully understand that I may not be able to do so when in a basement somewhere. Players can make choices to mitigate that (be small and ride a Mastiff) but in my view it's unreasonable to expect that a build deliberately designed around a large...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    So I thought the Colonel was in pretty good shape: during the short rest he was nearly at full, here. I sort of like him being completely clocked by this guy, though. I will assume that he's not down to 1 and attack, but if I'm wrong or have made a mistake, that of course is fine, and I'll live...
