    Adventurer's League - Temp Gold During and Adventure

    Uhmm... Ok, but you didn't actually answer either question. 1) Can you use the gold that you find during a game session to scribe spells into a spellbook? You can't use it for much of anything else. It seems wierd (and maybe slightly unfair) that the book casters can make good use of it, but...

    Adventurer's League - Temp Gold During and Adventure

    Ok, we were discussing a few character concepts that seem extremely difficult in the context of AL. Eldritch Knight with the Ritual Caster feat for some utility magic options. Warlock with Pact of the Tome and Book of Ancient Secrets for the entire Ritual spell list. Wizard of any sort. With...

    D&D 5E (2014) Warlock - What is it actually good at?

    Ok, better than I maybe initially thought. I've also been reading a different build guide. So I'm thinking: Tiefling Great Old One Pact of the Tome Spells to control/dominate/immobilize Not sure on invocations, except the Book of Ancient Secrets. Eventually have all the rituals from every...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ritual Caster Spell Lists

    Yeah, but I'd have to ditch the rest of the party to do it.

    The optimizers' opinions on my first 5thEd character, fighter build plan

    Could a Warlock with the Book of Ancient Secrets invocation also take the Ritual Caster feat. Then he could get say wizard and druid ritual spells?

    D&D 5E (2014) Warlock - What is it actually good at?

    Started reading the about the warlock and immediately loved the concept. Seemed like they would be great at controlling others and the battlefield. But the spells don't match that too well. Maybe a blaster? Once I started getting into the details I'm not so sure what to do with him. A much...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ritual Caster Spell Lists

    Don't really know if any of you would be interested, but since I was compiling the lists for myself, I thought I'd go ahead and share. These are (I think) all the ritual spells in the Player's Handbook. I don't have any of the other books yet. So if they have more that you'd like to share...

    Hopefully simple Ritual Caster question

    I have an Eldritch Knight with the Ritual Caster (wizard list) feat. There are 2 ritual spells on both the cleric and wizard list. Detect Magic and Gentle Repose are on the cleric list, but he never prepares them. However, they could occasionally have proven at least mildly useful. Can the...

    D&D 5E (2014) My (Personal) Early Evaluation of the D&D 5thEd System – Wall of Text

    I don't want you guys to get the wrong impression from me. I'm not saying D&D 5thEd is horrible or anything like that. I actually think it is a pretty good game in a lot of ways. I will have fun playing if I get invited to a game. I just think I like PF a little bit better. That opinion could...

    D&D 5E (2014) My (Personal) Early Evaluation of the D&D 5thEd System – Wall of Text

    As I said above: ...Not just one store. I've been to AL in 4 different stores in 3 different states. All charged $5 and said they were 'supposed' to because of AL rules. None of them charge for a PFS or SW game at the same store. The only place that didn't charge was AL at a bar. But even they...

    D&D 5E (2014) My (Personal) Early Evaluation of the D&D 5thEd System – Wall of Text

    Hmm... I'm not sure how useful that will be since I've yet to see anyone use a tool. But I suppose it is something to do with my built up downtime. I will look into it.

    D&D 5E (2014) My (Personal) Early Evaluation of the D&D 5thEd System – Wall of Text

    Believe it or not, I do understand and agree somewhat with what you are saying. However, to me, the build is usually a part of the role play. The personality, goals, and attitudes of the PC have to be influenced by what he can actually do or it just doesn't make sense. To me. In PF I had a...

    As I said, I can understand why many people like that simplicity. But it isn't an attraction for me.

    D&D 5E (2014) My (Personal) Early Evaluation of the D&D 5thEd System – Wall of Text

    My (Personal) Early Evaluation of the D&D 5thEd System – Wall of Text I’ve played D&D since the old blue and pink boxed sets. Except 4thEd. I was never able to find a group willing to give 4thEd a try. Reading the books I was not impressed. Last several years I have played 3.5 and/or PF almost...

    D&D 5E (2014) Eberron Campaign

    Ok, so if there are only 2 (+ the prequel) WoTC modules modules for Eberrron, how are people supposedly doing and entire Eberron campaign in Adventurer's League?
