    Sig File Reference - Contribution Summary

    What feats are "missing"?

    I would go with this for Feats, based loosely on my psionicist mixed with the ideas you posted. TELEPATHY You have the ability to touch others minds as a mentalist, granting you the following benefits. You can communicate telepathically with any creature you can see within 30 feet of you...

    Way of Iron and Steel (Monk)

    Sorry for the misunderstanding. I'll be keeping my my version. Wish I could have helped more for yours.

    Way of Iron and Steel (Monk)

    EDIT Here is the subclass build I'm looking at using as my incarnation of the concept (basing this on the Weapon Adept monk archetype). WAY OF STEEL While all monks train in both unarmed combat and with monk weapons, monks of the Way of Steel are often chosen from amongst early students that...

    A Little Help Here?

    I'm actually not sure this is an advantage in 5E as it costs one of the more precious action slots. I'm also not certain it really needs the restriction of free hand. Even someone wielding a shield and sword can help someone up. Additionally, I'm not sold on the Opportunity Attack. In the RAW to...

    Way of Iron and Steel (Monk)

    Hey, just a few quick thoughts. Hands of Iron - I would almost say this should simply give proficiency in martial weapons and then choose 1 of them to be a monk weapon. Yes all, considering that cleric domains at 1st give either Heavy Armor Prof or HAP + Martial Weapon Proficiency. This would...

    Personal house rules

    Sorry if I somehow offended you. You ask for opinions, so I gave mine. When I do so I try to be as thorough as possible to explain the logic behind my opinion. I tend to find most people appreciate it more than the "No" or "no it sucks" trolling answers that we see around here so much. But hey...

    Personal house rules

    Little confused here. Shields only normally give flat +2 to AC. Are you saying you want to add a Trait to shields that says something like "In the hands of a Fighter, a shield grants AC equal to the Fighter's STR modifier if higher than +2." If so, I honestly think it's pushing the bounds of...

    Cavalier

    I'm really uncertain this concept needs a whole class. I think it is simply better served up as a Fighter Subclass. The "proof in the pudding" per say is that when I think of the concept between Class or Sublcass is wether or not the New Class Concept can support at least 3 concerete subclass...

    Blackguard

    Not necessarily Buff Up, as I was thinking it was in addition as well. Mechanically the Paladin (@3rd) gains Bonus Spells and One once/short rest powers from a choice of 2. So we need powers that are either: 1) equivalent 1/short rest powers 2) slightly weaker At-wills 3) Slightly more...

    Blackguard

    Ok, now that I know its not a Reverse Paladin (btw a tiny bit of fluff to introduce the class would help in that respect), I can see where you were going with some of it. 1) Dark Sight makes more sense now. However, that said, I'd make this the same as the Warlock Invocation "Devil's Sight". 2)...

    Blackguard

    Ok, well Blackguards aren't my particular cup of tea but I'll take a shot. One one hand I think this concept could be covered by a subclass, but on the other hand I guess in an all evil game you need a full class rather than waiting for the paladin to "Fall" at 3rd level. I'll also say now I...

    D&D 5E (2014) Supplemental books: Why the compulsion to buy and use, but complain about it?

    The DM isnt a novelist. The campaign should be something collaborative between you and the players. It also shouldn't be 100% up to the DM to come up with the ideas anyway. The players should be putting forth ideas on what they want to play and how they want to play. I personally wouldn't be...

    D&D 5E (2014) Dragon/Dungeon Magazines?

    I think the only real future for Dragon & Dungeon mags will be if they provide some form of digital content and then offer bound compilations Annually (hardbound) or Semiannually (softbound). The Core issue is the demand for such content has Drastically reduced over the years. In the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Supplemental books: Why the compulsion to buy and use, but complain about it?

    Wow, all I have to say here is one simple statement that covers my entire view and attitude towards those whom it doesn't fit. D&D is a game of collaborative storytelling where the DM's ONLY job is to be an advocate of the players by finding reasonable ways to say YES in ways that makes the...

    5E Fighter Variant - Light Fighter (experiment)

    I think the single +1 to attack rolls is ok. Its not exactly inspiring but its not as big a bonus as Archery fighting style. As for the light fighter three bonuses at 10th, there are other classes that get "upgrades" of features that don't count as class feature gains, Combat Superiority being...

    D&D 5E (2014) How Much Would You Pay for Digital Access?

    To tack onto delericho's statement... On the $$$ subscription front, I would pay a subscription for an actual service I found useful. I'm not paying for content. I have the books for that. If DS offers a service I find useful and that I will use often enough to warrant it, I'd pay. For instance...

    D&D 5E (2014) How Much Would You Pay for Digital Access?

    Just to throw in my $0.02 worth. If you own the hard copy you should get the PDF free (or maybe $5-10) as it is nothing more than a convenience option. It Gauls me to no end when some of these companies think they can charge full Hard Copy Retail for a pdf since most of the costs of the hard...

    5E Fighter Variant - Light Fighter (experiment) 1

    On a variety of threads here, there have been a number of debates over Light Fighters, their neglect or half-baked attempts to "fix" the neglect in older editions as well as to whether or not the current Fighter class does the archetype justice. As an experiment I attempted a Light Fighter...
