This seems a bit similar to the initiative system for Shadowrun. In that system, initiative was rolled. Then everyone acted in turn order of what they rolled. Then you subtract 10 from everyone's initiative. Everyone who still has a number above 0 gets to act again in new count order. Repeat...

I'd actually just swap Primal (use Cha) and Divine (use Wis). In my mind, "Primal" conjures up images of shamanistic casters entreating spirits or using their own force of personality to cast magic. Which all goes under the rubric of Charisma.

I loved True20, ran several games with it. Watching this thread closely. :)

All good information thanks. Looks like I won't be using this for that specific purpose, but that still doesn't diminish my interest in this :)

For anyone who has experience with Tomb of Horrors, I have some questions. Right now in my LMoP campaign, the PCs are approaching level 8 and at one point they used a bean from a Bag of Beans and summoned up a pyramid (fortunately it was in an out of the way place on the road to Conyberry)...

Yes, I have said that since I first got the PHB. All spells should have at least a couple of options like this when you cast them at a higher level Options could be.... - Increase damage dice - Increase die type - Increase range - Increase area of effect - Increase duration - Increase number...

Truly we live in a golden age.....

Really neat idea. Wonder how this could be adapted to other systems like Fate Core.

The only way this Pact makes any sense to me is through multi-classing into it once you have found one of these powerful weapons. If you are adventuring and come across a powerful sentience weapon, it promises you more power if you "give yourself to it". You then use the weapon to tap into new...

I've just seen way too many discussions (especially bows) where people are talking how both are needed, and logically it does make sense that anyone who is practiced in a weapon's use would need both the ability to move quickly and the strength enough to lift the weapon and maneuver it properly...

I've been contemplating a radical shift..... All weapons use Dex to hit and Str for damage.....

Not quite. We have a pact with the Raven Queen and a pact with stuff from the Raven Queen's junk drawer.... Sorry, that seems a bit nonconstructive. It's just the more I look at the Hexblade, the more I'm not liking the concept. Mechanically it may be fine, still going through those, but the...

Thanks, I knew about these. I just thought that from the description, that there were MORE powerful weapons out there. I guess my complaint would be that the Hexblade as presented really just doesn't make much sense to me. As others have stated, if the weapons are this powerful how are they...

I'm a bit confused about the Hexblade patron. Are there literally powerful weapons out there calling to people? Maybe I haven't read enough lore but everything I know about powerful artifact level weapons is that they are waiting for people to find them and then once they attune, they may...

It really depends on what type of EK you are playing. Sword and shield? Two-hander? Bow? For example I've played an EK for a while now (just reached level 18!) and my roll in the group was as primary tank using a sword and shield. So I focused on spells that would help me in my role like...

I my game, the PCs let Glassstaff live (took him to jail) and didn't quite kill all the Redbrands (but they killed most). I had Glassstaff escape from custody, thanks to Halia Thornton, and then smuggled to her contacts in the Zhentarim. While he may have been defeated, a Wizard with knowledge...

I've also done a lot of mixing of the time lines. In the one I'm running, I'm skipping the whole event from 4e. Basically it is more like the tail end of 3e with a jump to some stuff from 5e. Specifically I'm running the LMoP box set, so Neverwinter is still reeling from the earthquake, but it...

Is it April 1 already?

By the rules adamantine is a metel and druids cannot wear metal armors. In the PHB, no specific reason is given why druids don't wear metal armor and no specific consequence is given for a druid that does wear metal armor. It just flatly says druids don't wear metal. I'd say that if your player...

I think I have to agree with pretty much everything here.....get out of my head :)
