    D&D 5E (2014) Can you concentrate on a spell while resting?

    This is a valid point. I retract my previous statement. No concentration during any rest. You can concentrate, but you don't get the benefits of the rest.

    D&D 5E (2014) I have the Monster Manual!

    I suspect the FLGS won't run out of copies today so I'm picking mine up tomorrow.

    D&D 5E (2014) What happens in the sundering?

    Oh... I agree with you that it's silly to not describe it. But since they aren't describing it, the best assumption to make is that it turns out exactly the way you want it. If this conflicts with some future campaign guide so be it. It's not like there haven't been other events that have put...

    D&D 5E (2014) What happens in the sundering?

    What happened is exactly what you need to make your perfect version of FR.

    D&D 5E (2014) Fabricate: a world change spell

    Winner, winner. Chicken dinner. Chemistry, biology, and physics all work differently in a D&D world. All this talk of turning graphite to diamond is pointless. Everyone knows that diamonds are made of a mixture of stars and souls. That's why they aid in resurrection.

    D&D 5E (2014) Can you concentrate on a spell while resting?

    Yes for short rest. No for long rest.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e ranked skill system

    Can you give a side by side example of a character built the 5e way... and one built with your system? Show a 1st level example and a 5th level example. Thanks... I'm not quite understanding the number of points floating around, and a concrete example will help with that. Thanks.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e ranked skill system

    That seems like a lot of ranks. Eventually they will just auto succeed on their checks unless you increase the DCs.

    D&D 5E (2014) Your wishlist for fantasy adventure beyond medieval Europe

    Mythical India, mythical persia, mythical Silk Road.

    Would a typical D&D town allow adventurers to walk around?

    I take no offense from ideas. I take offense from being called an idiot. The irony is rich that you don't seem to understand that very simple concept.

    Would a typical D&D town allow adventurers to walk around?

    I saw a lot of words. And a couple of insults. If you want me to read your words... Maybe try to start without insulting people.

    Background resources from around the web

    Thanks to Morrus for creating the ENWorld backgrounds database, but I thought I would piggyback on that by providing links to other Background resources on the interwebs... First we have the Hack & Slash blog. Lots of interesting new Backgrounds to play with...

    D&D 5E (2014) Action Econ 101

    We were talking about using it OUTSIDE OF COMBAT! If you want to switch back to using it during combat, that's fine... but be consistent. I don't ask for much, but I do ask for that. Yes, of course, players will maximize their actions whenever possible or useful. What's your point? I don't...

    D&D 5E (2014) Cleric-dependant parties

    I agree. It's not really that difficult to die from failed death saves. This is especially true when multiple people go down at the same time. When your allies are faced with the choice of stabilize or fight... fight is usually the best option. So, you might go several rounds before someone...

    D&D 5E (2014) Cleric-dependant parties

    We played without a healer. It works, but it's much more difficult. Players didn't quite grasp that they couldn't just brazenly walk into a lair and just kick butt. TPK was only avoided with lucky death saves. One player is multi-classing to Cleric. Should make things a little less deadly...

    D&D 5E (2014) What I want: 17 books or book series (and two boxes) for a Third Golden Age

    Funny you should mention it. Back when WotC was selling PDFs (not the current DnDClassics) I bought the PDF of The World Builder's Guide. It's not the best scan, so if they do decide to sell it again I hope they re-scan it. That said, it's a great little resource that makes building a world a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Action Econ 101

    As I stated above, you use bonus actions when it makes sense to do so. Does it make sense for the rogue to use cunning action all the time? Probably not... so don't do it. I'm still not understanding where this is going. It's a choice the rogue makes. It's not always turned on. Let's take a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Action Econ 101

    I don't get where you're going with this. I can use bonus actions whenever it makes sense to do so. For most of them, it makes most sense to use them during combat (like a Monk's Martial Arts class feature). For some, like Healing Word, it can happen whenever I want it to, assuming I have a...
