a pole arm is not two weapon fighting style.

this material is not 5.5 compatible

the other familiars are immensely useful out of combat, and make excellent scouts. The skeleton lacks a lot of that utility :(

So I've been thinking about making a bladelock - a campaign I used to be in is being restarted, and I have to convert my level 11 bladebbound magus to 5.5e. The bladelock seemed like a good way to go about it, although with a 1 level dip in fighter, as it is rather fragile and that one level...

Have you heard of the GLOG, Many Rats on a Stick edition?

I believe that Tenkar bends right, politically, but I can't recall his position on trans issues? Ie is it plausible he would have said that? (... I think it's not him, but I can't be certain)

Isn't this directly contradicted by @Emerikol 's keen observation? What made that particular period/location more "valid" than another? You have the exact same problem.

That's a fair point, but in no way shape and form does it invalidate the economic yardstick principle. This problem exists with or without the use of a yardstick. Keep in mind, I am not advocating using the yardstick to redo the entire price list! That's a huge effort, and one with limited...

A late reply but... Thank you for the comment, it's a very valid one. So what would you use as your yardstick?

Well, I find that by finding the pact item at level 1 and the subclass at level 3... it suggests a story. The item is a "lure" a "first time it's free" device. A would be warrior finds a strange magic sword, which grants them power. So instead of, I don't know, practicing their action...

I concur that a dragon would not engage without really stacking the deck in its favor. The dragon has learned that with a bit of luck, the PCs could win. I've seen 2 battles this year alone where the PCs won when they shouldn't have. 2 weeks ago, in a battle vs a powerful gnoll lord (the...

I'm not sure your analysis quite holds to be honest. The reason why is because low level spells work better in 5.X than they do in 3.x. In 3.X, a spell DC is dependent on the spell level and on the competence of the spell caster. So low level spells are easier to resist! But in 5e, spell...

I almost have to wonder... what's the point/utility of publishing more campaign settings at this point? The market seems beyond saturated

You said you're using the 2014 rules... is the monk going to be using the 2014 version of the subclass?

I fully agree I noted that one of the gishes build in 5.5 (the bladelock) is a total glass cannon. It doesn't really "work" if you go single class, it's just too fragile. But if you take a single dip in fighter, you solve so many problems. Your armor class is now decent, and you have a...

@kigmatzomat I love these! However, I already had an idea for the "guidance" granting item. Something... better... I think. PERSONAL GOD Also known as "pocket gods", this is a statuette of a god - a very minor, tiny god. By praying to it, you are granted divine guidance in your tasks...

So, in the new DMG, there is a new type of items, called enspelled armor, enspelled weapons and enspelled staves. The staves can have any spell, the armor and weapons are more restricted. They require attunement. All of them are very basic 6 charges, 1d6 recharge per day, with the staves...

So I've noted in another thread that uncommon items, given the fairly generous item creation rules, are going to be kinda common (head to that thread if you want to talk about that). In particular, I've been very interested in pondering enspelled items, armor, weapons or staves which have 6...

I am amused how the idea of "D&D is not an economic simulator!" is going around (I agree with this idea btw)... and at the same time some are asking fundamental economic questions, perhaps even without realizing it! What your asking about essentially is, "what is money". "50g is 50g is 50g"...

DMing is a craft you will never stop learning about - there is no point in "I shouldn't do this because I need to perfect it" kind of thinking. I will never perfect it. Even if I did, I am changing as a person, so I have to change how I GM!
