If by "excels against flying enemies", you mean excel against creatures who fly by nonmagical means (because knocking a creature flying by magical means prone doesn't make them fall out of the sky) and can't hover, aren't immune to being knocked prone, and are unable to effectively fight outside...

The feat lets you use the healer's kit in a new way. The action is still the Use an Object action, because every action required for an object's use (that isn't activating a magic item) is an Use an Object action. Even if this was somehow not the case, the bonus action stabilizing +1 hp is...

The best part about the Healer feat's healing? It's 100 percent non-magical healing that works on any creature not somehow explicitly unable to regain hit points. Which, while I've (funnily enough) been in more scenarios that have required explicitly magical healing than I have scenarios where...

What caused the alignment change? That is to say, is that a standard part of the vampiric transformation, or something special? Because the 1st level (ritual) spell Ceremony can restore a willing creature to their original alignment.

I just want to note, with regards to the intelligence limit of 5 placed on that item of yours, that beasts such as the Giant Owl and Giant Eagle have Int scores of 8, Giant Apes and Giant Elks an Int score of 7, and Giant Vultures and Dolphins an Int score of 6.

All of that is part of resolving the spell, and not a requirement to cast the spell. Otherwise, I don't have a problem with what you wrote. Player's Handbook page 194-195 disagrees with you, as far as not being allowed to aim at a location where nothing is.

No effect, period (perceptible or otherwise). Otherwise, yes. You can cast fireball without choosing a point; it'll just go somewhere random in its range. If a player says "I want to cast fireball at nowhere, in order to waste my spellslot?" I'll ask them to show me where nowhere is. Unlike...

You're conflating a spell's resolution mechanics with its requirements. Concentration is a part of the duration portion of a spell's resolution mechanics, putting a second limitation on how long a spell lasts. It is not necessary that a spell or its effects last beyond the instant of its...

Question: Assuming uniqueness in spell books is the true goal, what stops the group from doing the same research? In other words, for the spells that the wizards gets simply for leveling up, what stops those spells from being the same? Because if the answer to that is 'nothing' or "player...

Casting time is a requirement for casting a given spell. If you don't take the required time to cast a spell, the spell does not happen and you do not spend the spell slot you would have had you successfully completed the spell. Components (whether material, somatic, or verbal) are a...

Assuming I'm not just maxing hit points, it's take the (rounded up) average or gamble on the (relatively) favorable chance of getting something higher. Don't like the consequences of getting a 1? Don't gamble.

Why did they need to come up with a Plan B? Plan A obviously couldn't have been unworkable, otherwise it should have been discarded (and thus not had its merits compared with Plan C's). Ignoring that for a moment, unless we're talking about long time scale planning, what are your NPCs doing (or...

Base race is whatever the druid's race is. Subrace is beholder-kin or whatever you want to call it, and has the following features: Ability Score Increase (for races whose subraces give ASI): +1 Int Language: Deep Speech Senses: Darkvision 60 ft. Skills: Perception Special Feature: Eye Ray(s)...

A shame, because the undying tangent that's taken over in its place is a foul mockery of the life that could have been.

I guess the first question would be, is the type of paladin your buddy is rolling up the type that would have a problem with your dead raising necromancer? Because if not, is there even a problem here?

Making Simulacrum create a lower level duplicate of a creature is too complicated and convoluted for what they appear to have been going for with 5e (Also, extra and unnecessary work for the DM should a caster manage to make a simulacrum of a npc). I'd rather just make it so you could only copy...

It's less a safety thing and more a portability thing. You can reach a demiplane anywhere that: A) Doesn't block / prevent the spell from being cast. B) Has a flat surface (wall, floor, ceiling, etc) Which means that any and every glyph you cast within said demiplane is a spell you can gain...

They may or may not be referring to the act of stockpiling Glyphs of Warding within a Demiplane, that can effectively be triggered whenever you need / want them.

They'd get the epic boon of high magic, assuming they passed the percentile roll I'd make them do (based on how difficult I felt getting said boon a more normal way would be).
