    Disengage

    Neither attacking nor disengaging costs you any movement, and neither of these actions give you extra movement too. You can always move up to your speed during your turn regardless of the action you take. The Dash action is the only exception, it gives you extra movement equal to your speed...

    D&D 5E (2014) Wizard Loot?

    For homebrew spells, if the player likes necromancy, I recommend The Necromancer Spellbook (5e), a supplement written by a friend of mine.

    D&D 5E (2014) Wizard Loot?

    Wizard loots typically include: • books with spells they can copy into their spellbook, or a whole spellbook full of spells to copy • spell scrolls and potions (not only healing, but with different effects) • spell components (take a look at this list of spell components; this is in my gdrive...

    D&D 5E (2014) ranger getting caught all of time---What to do?

    At 3rd level, he should have a Dexterity score of 16 (+3), and proficiency with the Stealth skill (+2). This is the best a ranger can achieve at this level. A rogue can have a maximum of +7, so they are better, but not that much. However, consider that rogues have the Cunning Action feature...

    D&D 5E (2014) rapier+dagger and/or longsword+dagger?

    Allow without the feat, using dual wielding rules, this is ok. Longsword/rarpier + dagger are virtually equal to two shortswords. The player's average damage will increase by 1 per extra attack, so +3 on 20th level, but IMO, +3 damage on 20th level is not much significant. For more clear rules...

    D&D 5E (2014) December Survey is Up

    What? Are you ok with a -1 on attacks and being forced to be 30 ft. from the enemy as a ranged character? It's like turning a ranged character into a melee character without a shield. I suggested they change the bonus to +2.

    D&D 5E (2014) Fluffs or Feats? Your re-skinning thread

    About the cleric thing: 1. He wont be affected by spells like shocking grasp and heat metal, and his equipment will never be stolen, so this is technically a mechanical advantage. But still a minor change, since it may never come to the table at all. He also won't be able to upgrade to plate...

    D&D 5E (2014) My lvl 3 Paladin just crit for 58 damage - Did I do it right?

    Yes, this is correct. Also, he can decide to use smite after seeing if it was a critical hit or not. -Does the crit roll all dice twice, not just the mauls? Roll all dice twice, yes, including from Thundering Smite and Divine Smite. -Does Great Weapon Fighter affect the non-maul dice? Going...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is there a type of riding / mount proficiency in 5e?

    New fighting styles for 5E.

    The idea is very cool, but can be refined. Instead of increasing the damage, the attack should be increased by +2, just like the archery fighting style, since cover is an issue to ranged attackers. The range limit of throwing weapons is another issue that makes throwing weapons unworkable, so...

    D&D 5E (2014) Life Cleric Multiclass armor prof

    Bolditalic you can insist how much you want, doesn't change that this is an assumption. Your interpretation of RAI. You can homebrew this way, but RAW says the character gets the proficiency. Multiclassing rules says that you get the proficiencies in the table instead of the initial...

    D&D 5E (2014) Life Cleric Multiclass armor prof

    If you pay attention, every feature of every class in PHB qualifies the level they get the feature, and they refer to actual class level, not character level.

    D&D 5E (2014) Short Rest Hit Point Recovery

    My homebrew for recovery is: 1) Players do not fully heals at the end of a long rest 2) Players gain a number of hit dices equal to their proficiency bonus at the end of a long rest (hot half) 3) They can spend hit dice on both short and long rest They won't feel much difference in the first...

    D&D 5E (2014) Life Cleric Multiclass armor prof

    Wrong. Heavy armor proficiency is a 1st-level feature for clerics of life domain, so yes, you get heavy armor prof. as a wizard 19/cleric 1, for instance. (as long as you choose life, nature, war or tempest domain)
