Imagine if the monk was of the Long Death variety, truly unkillable. The Monk class has the accelerator on the floor from level 1 and never lets up. That is why I find it humorous when you read grognards, (whom clearly have limited experience with the class in 5e), state with such adamant...

This seems to be an old modality. 9th level spells are available at 17th level, and a Wizard can either cast Time Stop or Meteor Swarm, not both. Fighters get Indomitable. Paladins boost their saves and others. Monks get Stillness of Mind and Diamond Soul, Barbarians have Advantage on Dex...

That is cool, and definitely counts as a “Fresh Eyes” story....but Levitate is almost always a good spell in any edition. 😀

Yeah, the first image drawn by a player on a Google Whiteboard in one of my online game....a penis. Actually two players were drawing the same thing simultaneously. Even funnier, the aforementioned juvenile, 40 year adults are both teachers. Cylindrical objects must just be fun to draw, or...

Dragonfist....like the old Jackie Chan movie? Or Dragon Fist like the Super Sayan Goku move? Also Dragon’s have claws not fists. 🤫 Lankhmar and Blackmoor would be cool, but I have the old products. I would love some original content...how about a swashbuckling style adventure in the vein of...

I love it when, in game, a confluence of PC actions engenders a surprising result. I’ve been playing in a group of players that are, predominately, new to D&D, and am often pleased to find that options that are deemed “subpar” by the D&D Borg/Internet Hypermind, actually are decent or good in...

Should a distinction be made between personal dice and community dice? My household has 3 lbs of Community Dice, labeled as such, and contained in an old, large pickle jar. I have no emotional attachment to these dice. Indeed, like others in this thread, I have actively encouraged players to...

Cost, would be my main concern. Beadle and Grimm is not cheap, (some might argue overpriced). I personally don’t need a B&G treatment of the PHB, for example. I use PDFs frankly more often today, a box set PHB for $199.99 has little appeal, to me. I would be interested in a Beadle and Grimm...

So here are a select grouping of photos from one part of my multiple RPG shelves. Notice how much more space the 4e style Gamma World box takes on the shelf compared to hardback RPG books. Now, I will direct your attention to the Beadle and Grimm box set. It dwarfs the dimensions of of the...

Firbolg Druid is a quick way to create a Loki style trickster. Charm Person, Animal Friendship, Racial Ability Disguise self and Invisibility, and Wildshape. Pass w/o Trace is golden.

Honestly, I am not a fan of box sets. Box Sets in D&D history, typically meant a map, loose pages of information, of various unusual sizes, and a softcover pamphlet or two. In practice, the boxes made it difficult to store, the boxes got destroyed or damaged and then of course the loose items...

This is the Resilient Feat per the 10th printing of the PHB: RESILIENT --- ---- Choose one ability score. You gain the following benefits: • Increase the chosen ability score by 1, to a maximum of 20. You gain proficiency in saving throws using the chosen ability. Unless it is hidden by an...

That is true, and I made the exact same point in the U/A feedback. The wording is vague: If you have a Psionic Talent die from another source, such as a class feature, you don’t get more than one die; use only the one with the largest starting size. Psi Replenishment. As a bonus action, you...

That is technically true, Shroomy. Yet based off how many CharOp builds on the internet, advise taking the Resilient feat multiple times; I would venture a guess,that the rule that a feat, can only be chosen once, is, in fact, one of the more oft forgotten rules. Wild Talent and Tower of Iron...

Yeah, Wild Talent (Con) has minimal utility, unless your DM has a penchant for calling for Constitution checks. The Metabolic Control feat would be a better selection for a Constitution boost. Frankly even then, I am not sure Metabolic Control is worth a feat selection, unless you want to...

Not yet, but the day is still young! 😉 In practical terms, the Wild Talent feat grants the effect of adding a proficiency bonus to ability checks that Psi Boosted ability applies to. If you already add your proficiency bonus, the Psi Talent die, on average, will grant a bonus that brings you...

A friend started up an Eberron game, and I received the go ahead to play a Psi Knight fighter subclass from the Unearthed Arcana article. The campaign started at 3rd level. I am playing a variant human Fighter Psi Knight. For my bonus feat I chose Wild Talent (Strength). It was really, quite...
