    D&D 5E (2014) How should spells be organized?

    How can it be alphabetical and then by level? No two spells are going to have the same name, so if you have a top level sort by alphabetical, that's it. There is no second or third level sort. Unless you're just talking about adding a list of the spells by level at the end. I personally prefer...

    D&D 5E (2014) WotC Customer Support on the availability of Bigby Presents: Glory of the Giants with updated art

    When D&D Beyond replaced the AI art in Glory of the Giants, it didn't come with an announcement from WotC or any word on if/when the published books would be using the new art. I reached out to customer support to ask, and I thought people might be interested in the response I got. My question...

    Planescape Check Out The Planescape Character Options

    I don't think you understood what I was trying to say. I'm well aware WotC typically includes player content in supplements and settings and markets the book to both players and DMs. But this specific set has so little player content that there's basically no value to someone who would only buy...

    Planescape Check Out The Planescape Character Options

    I'm surprised they made this video. If you sell a book to DMs and you add some backgrounds and feats, they act as a nice little cherry on top that a DM can share with the players if they're using the setting. But by making a "New Player Options" (and magic items) video, it gives the vibe that...

    D&D 5E (2014) Companion Thread to 5E Survivor - Adventures

    I'd rather take a book full of adventures with plot holes that I can mend rather than adventures devoid of plot. I'd heard such good things about Against the Giants, so I was disappointed to find it's just three big dungeons in a row topped off with "surprise, it was drow the whole time!" I can...

    D&D 5E (2014) Companion Thread to 5E Survivor - Adventures

    Copying my comments over from the voting thread, thanks for the link Eyes of Nine. Putting Phandelver on this list is an odd choice given the book isn't out yet. Or are we judging it on the Lost Mine portion? Yawning Portal is overrated. One or two of the dungeons are good, but many of them...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E Survivor - Adventures

    I haven't read the whole thread so forgive me if this was mentioned elsewhere, but putting Phandelver on this list is an odd choice given the book isn't out yet. Or are we judging it on the Lost Mine portion? Murder in Baldur's Gate 9 Storm King's Thunder 20 Tomb of Annihilation 27 Waterdeep...

    D&D 5E (2014) Least Favorite WotC 5E Book?

    Sad to see some Dragon Heist hate here, I've run the adventure twice and loved it both times. But to answer the question, I think it easily has to be Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide, especially now that most of the good content from that book has found its way into other publications. It does an...

    D&D General Eberron: recommend an edition

    Sul Khatesh and Rak Tulkhesh got stat blocks in Rising from the Last War, both clocking in at CR 28. Though it's worth noting that Keith Baker stated these stat blocks are intended to be aspects of them after their partial release and acknowledged their 3.5e versions were much stronger. Still...

    D&D General Eberron: recommend an edition

    For that type of thing I would be much quicker to recommend the Eberronicon since it contains 5e updated lore and you can read the vast majority of it for free using the preview.

    D&D General Eberron: recommend an edition

    This is my recommendation as well. Rising is a perfect introduction, and Exploring Eberron and Chronicles of Eberron (Keith Baker's 5e DMsGuild publications) are near must-haves as well. The 3.5e books are best for getting detailed lore of specific topics/areas. I do want to highlight a few...
