Hmmmm... After searching for about a half hout I have yet to find a specific answer to my question. I believe you when you say the question has been addressed, but I sure can't find it. I'm not trying to re-start any old arguments. I'm just guessing that there's a reason why those spells...

Will do. Thanks.

In the game I'm currently running I've got a player running a dwarven tempest cleric who has asked me if I'd consider adding Sunburst and Sunbeam to the clerical spell list. His argument is, thematically it makes sense given that they are radiant damage spells which rightly belong in the...

What would be the CR of 100 orcs attacking as a group on an open battlefield?

So it appears that there is no real agreed upon answer for this. Despite some opinions to the contrary, it looks as though even some of the designers are using house rules to temper the halfling hide trick. I've read this thread until my head hurts, as well as a couple of other threads on...

That's generally what I do. I've been DMing long enough that I can usually scan a stat block and know what my PC's can handle. However, this being a new edition for us, I've been trying to get a handle on some of the minutia rules, as well as trying to see just how well a CR"x" creature stands...

I am officially more confused than when I started this thread

For the life of me I cannot find a CR formula for figuring out how many multiple monsters equal a given CR. In other words, what would be the CR of an encounter with three CR5 foes? How about a CR8, CR6 and a CR 4 creature? If I have a party of 4 6th level PC's, how many CR2 monsters do I...

Why? How does it provide that exception? Reading the single sentence on page 28, PHB, Naturally Stealthy: You can attempt to hide even when you are obscured only by a creature that is at least one size larger than you. Where in that sentence does it allow the halfling to hide from a foe who...

Thanks for the correction. Didn't have the book in front of me.

That's not the point of contention. I totally get that lightfoots can do that. The question is : can he hide after having been seen, and while still in view of the foe?

The End.

Rdyr’t 26 This has been a busy, yet productive day. We have also managed to tidy up a few loose ends and even get some real rest. This morning Sensesi and Happy slipped out of the mansion, despite Griff’s frowns and Caribdis’ pouts. Griff could, of course, keep some track of his wife...

Rdyr’t 23 Today began innocuously enough. Surprisingly we were not attacked during our rest and neither were the soldiers barricaded in the front entrance. It remained quiet. Too quiet, but given the situation there was no winning. I slept hard, determined not to wonder why our enemy would...

Rdyr’t 2 I have just returned from an exhausting twenty days on Edik, though only two of Havilah’s days have passed. My plan worked perfectly, and though I am bone weary, I am also alive with excitement over the knowledge that I can use the time difference in Edik to my advantage. For...

Ptchwl 16 At last! We are on our way again! We left Clangeden’s city at early noon today once Hap had finally received her armor. I must admit, it is beautiful. It is as thin and supple as Ebarium silk, and though it is not as “roguish” as her old armor, which was darker in color, it...

Just wanted to say how much I am enjoying this story. I'm only about half way through, but already there have been several laugh out loud moments, and I'm loving Roger and Fanboy. I'm not really a fan of superheros, but those two have won me over. Thanks for sharing.

I can only imagine that this has been covered at length, and if so, maybe someone can provide a link to the answer. Otherwise I'd settle for just a little clarification. Here's the situation: The PC's meet a monster. They see it. It sees them. They engage. The party rogue (a halfling) hides...

Whoops, I should have said, I was able to incapacitate FOUR of the nine ambushing hobgoblins with sleep spells, not eight. Still, knocking out almost half of them is a pretty good day, IMO. Especially as these particular hobbs were rocking 18 AC's and our fighters were having a heck of a time...

So it will come as no surprise that I have not read all 70+ pages of this thread, and chances are I won't add anything that hasn't already been said, but our situations are so similar I thought I'd chime in, just in case. I, too, am playing a 4th level wizard in HotDQ, but I must say that my...
