There is a maaaassive difference between the two. Find Steed doesn't require anything besides a spell slot. Animal Friendship requires there to be an actual animal there to begin with AND requires the DM to give credence to something that happened at a different DMs table (the player finding...

*sigh* I hate seeing posts like this. There isn't any build (outside of super high level Wizards that break the game) that can't be overcome without a modicrum amount of creativity. Off the top of my head: 1. Heat Metal. Doesn't care about AC, in fact in punishes it. Have some Fire...

1. Yes, Find Steed does have specifics. Namely that it makes the creature intelligent + telepathic bond + spell sharing + undying loyalty. That is a massive difference that no amount of animal handling can match until the Awaken spell comes online. 2. Agreed on this point, which is also...

A few problems: 1. Find Steed is a spell with specific effects, so you won't get the same obedience or even actions out of a animal you happen to find. 2. AL doesn't like unusual things being brought from table to table, aka the animal companion you want without having to be an actual...

For the record, there are still creatures that are NOT legal (confirmed by AL Admin). For example, players cannot Wild Shape/Polymorph into the beasts in the back of Storm King's Thunder.

1. Take my Wizard that got it from Barovia and used the Barexit. 2. Use in SKT. Find Rune. Poof, magic musket. Truthfully I've never seen anyone else use the Musket though, so probably never going to happen. Just really wish there was a way/magic item to improve Monk's Unarmed Strikes...

Honestly, this is the biggest reason I buy minis via third-party sellers. I've never been able to justify buying a box of minis before knowing what I'm actually going to get. *edit* With that said, I'm really glad that they are doing this. Anything that helps monetize D&D in a non-necessary...

Doh, completely forgot it was an insignia. I always pictured it as actual claws that would go over the hand. Oh well, thanks for the response. Although that does mean you can now, in theory, get a runic imbued magical gun in AL...steampunk here we come.

So thanks to HotDQ, we know that "claws" are a weapon type, albeit not one specified in the PHB. This is because there is a set of magical claws that add +1 to unarmed strikes. My question is, because certain Rune items from SKT can be imbued into weapons, could a player imbue the Rune into a...

Understable misunderstanding. "Not belonging there" was more in reference to the "wtf are snake people doing in Barovia?" all my players did regardless of the explanation about being "pulled" in. Same for the Elven "village" that either does or does not exist depending on which module you're...

There are TWO Romeo and Juilet storylines that make ZERO sense in the contest of, really, any storyline. They both involve mysterious outsides that had precisely zero foreshadowing. The last two modules are literally impossible not to be TPKs unless the DM goes completely against the creatures...

Can you please show me where they have been confirmed as playable races? Last time I asked, it was linked to tweets by MM that only confirmed them as being in the guide, not that they would be listed as playable races.

People really need to start differentiating between "races" and "playable" races. Because many on that list of yours have been confirmed as being IN the guide as races, but NOT as playable races.

Let me save you a LOT of frustration down the line. Stop playing the Season 4 expeditions. Simply put, they are terrible. There's one, maaaaybe two that are worth it. The rest are so bad and disjointed your players will end up more frustrated than anything else. Instead, run through a...

....you're talking about a level 20 Wizard with 9th level spells. I'd have my Simulacrum come and DDoor me away, or one of a bajillion other things 5-9th level spells let you do that straight up don't even allow the fight to happen in the first place. Even at advantage you're still going for...

Just FYI, grapple doesn't do jack to stop spell casting. So Misty Step/DDoor, Planeshift, et al.

Technically? My guess would be some combo of Bladesinger Wizard/Black Dragon Mask with max Charisma from HotDQ. Permanent Shield spell (+5) from level 18 Spell Master, +5 Int (Bladesinger), +5 Cha (Black Dragon Mask), + 2 from Haste, could add Bracers of Defense for another +2, with Mage Armor...

Ahhhhh gotcha, misunderstood. So no way to do the original request (Disarm all day, e'ry day), but several ways to get a close approximation (so often that it's good enough).

For what it's worth, if you want an experience that is significantly better than this season's epic: Just play DDEX 1-14 and take the fight all the way through at the end.

Unless they happen to have a certain Dark Gift that prevents 95% of all healing in the game from working on them anyways *cough cough*
