Cantrips aren't faster than leveled spells of the same casting time- they're simpler. They are spells that a caster has practiced so often and so repeatedly that their second nature to them, and thus require no resource expenditure or real effort to implement. It's not stated anywhere, but it...

How is time stop maimed, exactly? Comparing it to the 3.5 SRD version, I'd much rather have the 5e version.

That's technically expanding/explaining what all falls under weapon attacks (as opposed to spell attacks), not saying that natural weapons (or manufactured items that aren't actually weapons) count as weapons everywhere the game refers to a weapon.

Which part is that? Because I couldn't find it in my monster manual. I mean, on page 10~11 I see this:

You know that old quote, "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog."? Hit points are essentially the size of a specific creature's fight. In other words, they're a measure of how much you can take and keep fighting - of how long you can withstand adverse...

Do you allow more than one bonus action or reaction in a round in your games? Because otherwise, the 15th level feature is practically worthless. Also, as a general side note, I feel it'd be more elegant to have the battle master bonus be equal to proficiency modifier. (Actually, I'd prefer a...

I'd personally keep both, if it's possible, and dual wield the Goblin Render and Ild Rune weapon. But that's definitely not optimal. Alternatively, keep both (again if possible) and switch between the two depending on the circumstances. If you have to choose to keep only one, though...

About that list... Half-Orc Savage Attacks - This still works Two-Weapon Fighting (even if you consider Unarmed Strikes "light) - This doesn't work, go get martial arts if you want a bonus action unarmed strike Barbarian Frenzy (Path of the Berserker) and Divine Fury (Path of the Zealot) -...

Prices for most magic items aren't explicitly given; instead suggested magic item value ranges are listed based on said item's rarity. These value ranges are: Rarity Minimum Suggested Value Maximum Suggested Value Common 50 gp 100 gp Uncommon 101 gp 500 gp Rare 501 gp 5000 gp...

It's a really dramatic fight opener, and potent/useful buff in the event you can't or don't want to meaningfully engage someone in the first round of combat.

Assuming the target is still in range after getting knocked back by the first hit, they'd get knocked back by the second. If the target's still in range after getting knocked back by the second hit, they'd get knocked back by the third. And so on. Which means, to answer your question, the...

As someone who plays a lot of monks, I thoroughly reject the idea that monks (in their current incarnation) aren't cool.

As a side note, what disaster happened to let these items be the cream of the crop? More like cream of the crap. Anyway... Amulet of the Planes 20 Bag of Tricks 20 Elven Chain 20 Frost Brand 23 Helm of Comprehending Languages 20 Horn of Valhalla 20 Mace of Disruption 21 Portable Hole 22 Ring of...

Should any character (low level or otherwise) know to burn a troll? Depends on how common and well known trolls are in the area/region/world in question. Honestly, if I was trying to kill something (i.e. running away isn't an option) that mundane / standard weaponry is obviously not dealing...

If I ever decide to get a homebrew game off the ground, I was going to do something similar. In my case, anyone with an initiative of at least 30 would get two turns every round (a full turn on their initiative count and a reduced turn (half speed + action or full speed + bonus action) on their...

Technically speaking: The Eye Rays action (for both Beholders and Death Tyrants) specifies it can only affect targets it can see. So a Beholder / Death Tyrant does need to see you to target you with rays using that action. The funny / evil thing is that, because the none of the rays...

I allow as many Dashes as a given character can possibly take, because the game by default doesn't put a restriction on it. So if someone showed up with a hasted rogue fighter and wanted to Quadruple Dash (Cunning Action Bonus Action Dash, Normal Standard Action Dash, Haste Standard Action...

Pact Magic spell slots are different from normal Spellcasting spell slots, and thus the multiclass into wizard has no effect on the spell slot gained from warlock. A multiclassed 1st level warlock / 1st level wizard would have a total of three 1st level spell slots (two from the Spellcasting...

I know there's a principle thing going on here (one I don't agree with), but I'm thoroughly confused as to why people keep trying to get the druid to get into the metal armor to sneak into the castle. Like, why not turn into a rat or some other innocuous little creature and ride in another...

Assuming the druid fails their save, they put on the armor. And then, immediately after they put on the armor (and the Suggestion ends), they take the armor right back off. You know, since they're no longer under the effect of something that subverts their will.
