I watched the whole thing. At no point did he discuss the relationship between 'taking a bonus action whenever you like, once you have one!' and Extra Attack. Discussing Shield Master, he said that you don't have the bonus action shield shove until you've actually attacked using the Attack...

That's the point though: there is no 'general rule' that actions are indivisible! If there is, let us know which page of which book states this rule so we can see it for ourselves. I have Extra Attack and the Shield Master feat. It's my turn. I announce that I am 'taking the Attack action' and...

Ummm...slightly embarrassed, but no druid for me. I had decided on Grasslands, for access to invisibility and haste (buffing my party), and the always-prepared pass without trace which I love. Then I had an idea for a half-elven Ancients paladin. I had both concepts worked out and went to the...

Stunned that no-one's called this out yet! He totally fails to answer the question! We want to know whether the bard can/should see the number rolled on the d20 so he can get a clue whether or not to use Cutting Words. We still don't know. How hard can it be? How hard can it be to answer...

??? What do you mean, "You can't Dash between attacks"? Even if you accept the totally unwritten 'rule' of not being able to interrupt action at the same time as ignoring the actually printed rule of being able to take bonus action whenever you like during your turn, 'Dash between attacks' is...

Thanks for some great advice guys. I'm going to give summon-type spells a miss. They are tactically great, but I want to avoid hogging the screen time at the table. Any thoughts on which druid circle?

@Treantmonk: do you have a guide to a druid equivalent of the God Wizard?

You know Treantmonk's God Wizard concept: (briefly) a wizard who doesn't seem to do much themselves but instead makes victory easier by empowering allies and messing with enemies? Well, I want to do the same, but with a druid. Specifically, a single-class 5th level druid. What spells should I...

Just started two new campaigns: one for Pathfinder's Serpent's Skull, and one for 5e's Dragon Heist. For Serpent's skull, The DM had us roll 4d6, re-roll all 1's until they weren't 1's any more(!), keep 3, six times, arrange to suit. Pretty standard apart from the re-roll 1's bit, which I...

Hey! I have a real life you know! I can't just sit at a computer all day! ;) I only get short bursts of time to read and reply. ....damn ninja sloths...!

Ninja'd! ...damn ninjas...

:D Yeah, these incompetent powergaming wannabes are ruining the reputation of us powergamers who know what we're doing. :D

And thereby throwing the baby out with the bathwater. You are pre-banning thousands of character ideas that even you admit you'd be totally okay with being in your campaign. Instead of pre-banning MCing just in case the fluff turns out to be inadequate, why don't you take the trouble to find...

Stormwind Fallacy guide, part 1: The Two Player Types. Type 1: fluff is all that matters. Player 1: Hey, DM, I've got a brilliant idea for my next PC. It all started many moons ago, the wind was howling around the moors. A lady in a dark dress, grey, charcoal maybe, maybe just shiny black, I...

I must admit that this seems strange to me; the idea that IF a player is all about 'grabbing powerz' then they do it spontaneously, on a whim! In my experience, the TRUE system master who is motivated by 'powerz' will already have worked out their level progression 1-20. And, if they can be...

That's one perfectly fine way to do it, but there is another way which avoids the heartache:- Bear with me. :D Back in AD&D 1e/2e, multiclass PCs were always multiclass from level 1. For single class and MC PCs alike, the idea was that you were trained from a young age in the skills you need...
