Thanks all for sharing. Alright here's another complication: All objects in this room is invisible. This includes the arrows which were fired at the invisible monster. I would still rule that PCs have a chance to locate the monster if and only if the arrows hit, from the sound of impact, painful...

Agree, I can rule it this way too.

The idea of using Cordon of Arrows is creative. I wanted to make it work but unfortunately for the PCs, all the arrows missed due to dice rolls... For detection of the invisible monster, I guess I did not follow the rules accurately/strictly - In this particular scenario I ruled that the PCs...

Skaven. There is just too many of them. They have clans specialized in combat, magic, war-machines, giant monsters, assassination, disease. They have weapons of mass destruction, which will blow up in their faces sometimes, but still, there is just too many of them to blow up themselves into...

I must say the doc is useful. Must be a lot of work!

PCs did not know where the monster is, although it was very obvious that the monster was in the square and empty room. I thought the spell is just 'meh' too at first when the player decided to learn it. When he used it to find the invisible monster, I found it rather creative without breaking...

The only flaw is with the d4 itself. It doesn't roll. Nevertheless, I like to roll many dice even with d4s. FEEL the handful of power in your hands!

PCs encountered a monster with permanent invisibility in a room. In order to find their enemy, the Ranger cast Cordon of Arrows. Q1: Will the arrows used in this spell auto-fly towards the invisible target? Q2: With 4 arrows, is it correct that each arrow flies out once per turn?

Theater of the Mind. Generally for me, it is easier than fiddling with little pieces and maps. Another reason is that I do not have minis that can represent the PCs and monsters accurately. However I must say I appreciate the benefits of using minis as visual aids especially for tracking battles...

What? Result's hidden? Anyways, I vote for the Fighter. Be natural my friends, stay away from witchcraft.

Well, as of now, I see that all 3 votes from me come in the highest. I like the advantage/disadvantage system best. Advantage/disadvantage roll, best invention since... "fill in the blank"

Another forgotten monster is the Human. After chargen and purchasing of equipment in the marketplace, arrange a poor-looking girl to approach your heroes for help. She will bring them to a dark alley and our heroes will get round up by a local gang. Have someone escaped (perhaps the girl...

Goblins are my normal choice - evil, small, smelly and squeal loudly when you hit them. Since the advent of D&D, goblins have been fantastic trainers for level 1 PCs to take on the world.

I'm looking at the cost of spellcasting in the Adventure League Harried in Hillsfar and quite amazed at how cheap spells can be. Eg Remove Curse is only... 90gp? Raise Dead... 1250gp? Comparing to gears, a magnifying glass is already 100gp and a Plate mail 1500gp. What this is telling me is...

Side question: One cannot attune to two magic items of the same type. Am I correct to say you cannot attune to two magic shortswords, but can attune to a magic shortsword and a magic scimitar at the same time?

Yes. If each power is with separate item, a person can use both magical items together. Both would need attunement. Not that I can find one existing item that comprise both magical traits or comparable power.

DMG page 135 states the rarity of an magic item corresponding to the character level and value (gp). I'm not looking at the value (gp) since the new item is likely to be unique and cannot be re-created. I'm more interested at the indicated character level, so I can estimate whether the new...

I am trying to customize a new magic item by combining powers of two Uncommon magic items. What is the Rarity of this new magic item? Rare? How does Rarity work for customize items? Uncommon+Uncommon=Rare? Rare+Rare=Very rare? Uncommon+Rare=???

"I know the beast, that's right. Terrible monstrosity with three heads and large leathery wings. Why 3 heads you say? To eat you up 3 times faster, that's why! Back then, no one cared or sane enough to take up that Baron's contract but young and strong and brave we were. Hey, we had 7 heads plus...

It is only recently that I made a Paladin of Vengeance NPC to assist my players that I first realized the damage potential of a smite, especially on a crit. I'm curious, for those of you with experience in using these Paladins, do you see the smite breaking the game? (Say, the DM unleashed a...
