You are correct, "being" was the wrong choice of words. "Acting Like" is a better selection. To be clear, as we are all on the Internet...referring to someone as an Internet Troll..is not denying their humanity. It is instead questioning wether said human is trying to provoke a reaction...

Helldritch, I believe you have used examples like the above quote before, in other threads as well. As a matter of introspection, is it not curious that you assign the creature (meant in the 5e technical rule sense), generally held in higher esteem to one of the hallmark's of Occidental...

Tyler, you joined ENworld two years ago and have 14 posts. So based off the principle, you evinced in the post quoted above, can anyone with more posts then you, just dismiss whatever you write, out of hand, a priori? I think it looks mighty suspicious that these ENworld members, with low post...

Charm Person is on the Druid, spell list. Beast Bond and Animal Friendship is a good combo. Starting a criminal organization that uses animals to gather information and steal....is good flavor. Having Animal Friendship and Speak w/ Animals auto prepared is a nice perk, and a plus in the cleric...

That is not Kirk...that is an Imposter. Having seen the actual William Shatner take a tumble off his electric bike, I will say he takes a fall well. I will admit, I was glad he was unhurt....but lowkey disappointed he did not get up and yell "Khaaan!"

Or it shows that the flavor of settings is customizable. Now instead of Half-Orcs being the angsty hero type fighting against inner darkness, it can be goblins. Sidebars detailing designer intent, is a best practice. WotC needs to do this with much greater regularity. As a DM, I hate creating...

Testify!

I've never thought of this use of the Command spell for swallowed characters. The trick is how to make the purple worm understand you. Does that make you a crappy DM? 😇 Or Just the 💩! 😂....(intended as humor, does not contain insults)

It can be, AC 18 is not bad at all in early tiers. My Fighter is more then willing to act as cover for the cannon, especially when it is in Protector mode. As a DM I would allow an Artillerist to create a custom Infusion that would boost the AC and Saving Throw bonus for the Eldritch Cannon...

I think we can assume Monte did not leave WoTC because he had a "case of the Mondays" and didn't want to do early morning meetings. If this was the case, Monte would have just said "I love D&D, but I need a more flexible position then what being a WoTC designer allows". Instead Monte said " I...

This is a bit of a non-sequitur, but in my experience, persons from the U.K. disliking forced, perfunctory, politeness in retail settings, is not a quality that is solely limited to Paul Farquhar. There are numerous U.K. based ENworldians whom can speak to this more directly, if they so chose...

In no way is this meant to detract for Orion Black's statement, but having worked for a large, Fortune 50 company, previously, Worker Alienation is a real psychological phenomena, in my opinion. Occupational Psychologists seem to agree. An important historical note to keep in mind is Monte...

Can you buff or cast beneficial spells on an Apparatus of Kwalish or a Dancing Sword? The fact that a Mending cantrip heals the Eldritch Cannon, 2d6 damage is a fairly significant aid as is. Also the cannon is immune to status effects. I agree with Flamestrike, that a tiny sized cannon, that...

Shatter states this: A nonmagical object that isn't being worn or carried also takes the damage if it's in the spell's area. So as a magical object, a DM can either rule the Eldritch Cannon is immune to the damage, or gets a Saving Throw at +0. I, frankly would apply this rider of the Shatter...

Agreed, however, the goblins, I think are more likely to use their bonus action to Disengage first then hide, once out of sight. Can terrain make hiding easier...absolutely. If Bruce Banner turns into the Hulk, and 20 goblins run away and hide, I would call that a resource efficient...

Per the PHB, 10th printing... DISINTEGRATE 6th-level transmutation Casting Time: 1 action Range: 60 feet Components: V, S, M (a lodestone and a pinch of dust) Duration: Instantaneous A thin green ray springs from your pointing finger to a target that you can see within range. The target can be a...

Correct, no dispute here. If the canon is an object...you quoted that above....go ahead Boba Fett. If the canon is a Magical Object or Magic Item...no disintegration, Boba Fett. If the DM rules the Arcane Canon is instead something other than an object or a creature, but a bit of both...Saving...

DMG pg 133: Magic Items. Types of magic items include armor, potions, scrolls, rings, rods, staffs, wands, weapons, and wondrous items. Magic items also have rarities: common, uncommon, rare, very rare, and legendary. I would say, categorizing the Arcane Canon as a wondrous item, which is what...

doc, that was to bring emphasis to the fact that Flamestrike was not responding to factual points, but to the irrelevant, attempted humor in the post. The intent of the phrase you are objecting to was not to say "I win", but to encourage a response to points made, rather then making a straw...

Right the rule is common sense...which is the DMs call. As the Disintegrate spell predates the rules for the Arcane Canon..judgement is required. Magic Items are not intended to be targets of Disintergrate... Flamestrike, you seem to be selectively pasting only parts of the texts of spells...
