    D&D 5E (2014) Power Gamers Guide to Elemental Evil Players Companion

    What 's the purpose of "in either case" in the last sentence? If it the object is aimed at a "person" the target can make a DEX save to avoid, right?

    D&D 5E (2014) Banshee is Nasty!

    My group of three 5th level characters and a 3rd character just mopped up 2 banshees last night. Only the third level barbarian failed (and failed and failed and failed) the saves and banshees couldn't hit to do any damage. Now the CR 2 Sea Hag with a similar mechanic dropped the 5th level...

    D&D 5E (2014) Speed Zero and prone

    If a PC's speed is reduced to zero and is then knocked prone, can she stand up as a move action? I think the answer is no but wanted to check.

    D&D 5E (2014) Quintessential Starting Campaign for a group of new, young players.

    I think Keep on the Borderlands and/or Lost Mines of Something or Other are excellent suggestions.

    Is their standard stat block different than the WOTC one?

    That means 600 words + the stat block right?

    D&D 5E (2014) AC....5th level

    Thanks, I want him to appear confident in battle. I want him to have the "nothing can hit me attititude". I also don't want to fudge the mechanics..... IS cutting words a reaction?

    D&D 5E (2014) AC....5th level

    I am trying to make an NPC with a high AC in light or no armor. In a nut shell, the guy is a professional explorer/problem solver (think MacGyver or Indiana Jones). I am thinking human monk, 16 wis (+3) 16 dex (+3), Defensive Duelist feat (+3 as a reaction) Magic Iniate Feat [Shield of Faith]...

    The Celestial Warlock

    I see your point but I think you are over valueing 3-4hp/level. You'll be able to literally be as good or better than the fighter in to hit, AC, and damage. Trading 3-4 hit points per level (which becomes less with the false life incantation at 2nd level, and your ability at 10th level) for...

    The Celestial Warlock

    What are they sacrificing to get it? I am not trying to be snarky, I am really asking. It just seems to easy to get a high AC.

    The Celestial Warlock

    I have an issue with the AC thing as well. Between medium armor, shield prof. AND the +1, that's a lot. I would say two of the three but not all three. I would reccomend an ability that that added AC as a reaction (something like the spell shield) that recharged once per short rest or...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana is Here - and it's all about EBERRON!

    I love the shifters. I will be using them ASAP. I like the Dragon Mark Feat as well. I am a little worried that it is so much better than the Magic Initiate Feat but I don't think that was good enough anyway.

    Kensai fighter archetype

    I was assuming the Kensai got the regular fighter stuff as well. This guy seems like he will need the feats and stuff. In fact, I would use feats instead of the fighter style at some level. Just spit balling but I think I would use: Defensive Duelispt (that's the parry one right?) Resiant...

    Kensai fighter archetype

    That is REALLY good. I suggesting make this a sometimes as opposed to all the times. MAybe something like: can add the bonuses for one round a number of times equal to their wis modifier. Have it recharge on a short rest. These keeps them from being better than the fighter ALL the time...
