Ok, not totally against that. Mostly just making sure I understood correctly. I try to make sure all of my characters in any game system all have unique recognizable personalities. Also I do like needing to make use of the magic items found rather than the everything available magic item shops...

Yeah, I was just thinking that if we had a group that was completely devoid of a whole classification of spells, that might be a way to get a few of them. At least outside of combat. Whoops. Totally missed that. Thanks.

Hmm... I will say that I always thought PF made it too easy to know about monsters. But unless it is just the particular GM's I've seen, I think 5thEd is making it too tough. So far I haven't seen anyone able to learn anything useful about any monster (even if it is common to the area) we've...

Aha, I missed the Ritual Caster feat. So if my (for example) Eldritch Knight will be casting wizard spells with his spell slots. But he doesn't have a book and is stuck each day with the ones he knows. However, I can take the Ritual Caster feat and chose say cleric spells to write in his book...

Ok so I've played Pathfinder for years. So some of these questions are coming from that background, some are just some confusion with the system, some are making sure I read it correctly. 1) There are no 'monster knowledge' skills. So unless the players metagame from reading the monster manual...

Aha! I didn't realize that. Ok, it will bear some thinking. I'll find a couple still background appropriate but more useful to me.

Where is that? I'm not seeing any subforums within the 5thEd forum. {Never mind, I found it. It's not within 5thEd.} I will consider defense instead of protection style. Not sure. I never thought of the weapon bond replacing a lot of the early warcaster benefit. I will have to think more about...

I forgot to list it. I do have 2 shortswords. That is what the starting equipment gives. I'm not sure why that is helpful since I don't have two weapon fighting. I only have the Player's Handbook so far, so no Gloomstalker. I did try to let the barbarian and fighters handle the melee. Didn't...

I am brand new to 5thEd (though I remember clear back to the blue and pink boxed sets). Just finished 1st session with this guy in Red War Tier 1 Adventure League. Did surprisingly poorly. Stealth never worked once. Rarely hit with bow or blade. Unconscious 5 times (once in first encounter twice...

Playing this guy in the Dragon Heist Adventure League. Brand new to 5thEd and only 1 session so far with this PC. Dragonborn, Bronze Fighter level 1, protection fighting style, planning on eldritch knight Align CG Deity Mystra Background Soldier Str 17, Dex 10, Con 13, Int 14, Wisdom 12...

Heyo. New to 5th Ed D&D. So looking for a place to get answers to some of my simpleton questions about the game mechanics, builds, and the Adventurer's League.
