    New martial based full caster class

    It seems pretty strong. Is the intent for it to be balanced with the core classes? I also think it's a bad mechanic to add to to hit rolls. Lump on damage all you want or give advantage.

    Hammer to the Helmet- Only useable with a bludgeoning weapon- On a solid strike (16+) the wielder delivers a crushing below to the head of it's enemy. The opponent must make a CON save of suffer concussion like symptoms. The DC is equal to the damage dealt and opponents wearing a metal helm...

    13th Age 13th Age monster powers for 5th edition D&D

    I am also thinking about something along the lines of, 2 rounds after being reduced to zero hit points, the creature regains 1/4 of their max hit points as temp it points. Something like Danny LaRusso is Going to Fight?!. Maybe the creature has a level of exhaustion or something as well.....

    13th Age 13th Age monster powers for 5th edition D&D

    The effects are ripped right from the SLOW spell, WIS save and all. Changing it to CON is no big deal, works either way IMO. In my mind, it's nothing more than a six second concussion. The metal helmet was just a flavor thing. I really like the mechanic of SHOCKING GRASP, maybe that is more...

    I like that. I use something like that for most of my saves.

    13th Age 13th Age monster powers for 5th edition D&D

    I like that mechanic. I plan on using something like the 16+ for most "bonus effects". For example, I am thinking of replacing the 7 points of extra damage hobgoblins do with something like: Sweep the leg: On a hit of 16+ the target must make Reflex save (DC 8 + damage dealt) or be...

    13th Age 13th Age monster powers for 5th edition D&D

    Not in the FACE: On a critical hit the target must make a CON save (DC damage dealt) or be blinded for one round.

    13th Age 13th Age monster powers for 5th edition D&D

    I love the list. Couple suggestions: Big shove (each enemy engaged with monster)—3x/day, as its action, the creature deals 1d6 damage to all targets and they must make a DC 15 Constitution save or be pushed 10’ away. Quick use: This power only requires a free action (once per round) instead...

    D&D 5E (2014) Feywild encounters and short adventures

    Some ideas: 1. Have the storm priest spell effects look like flowers instead of lightning when he rolls a 1 on damage. 2. Have some fey chief ask the party to remove their giant ant/aspis/other lawful bug/modron problem. Have the bugs do "lawful" damage or something. Nothing says 5 room...

    D&D 5E (2014) Any suggestions for the Suggestion?

    It's a bit of a game changer. If you want a PC to stop casting it ALL THE TME, their needs to be some pretty serious consequences to having it fail.

    D&D 5E (2014) Any suggestions for the Suggestion?

    The way I rule is: If an NPC makes it saves (and it is reasonably intelligent) it knows a spell was just cast. I make the "suggestion" the verbal component. I also make it an easy Spellcraft or Knowledge (arcana) check to identify the spell.

    D&D 5E (2014) A DM in need of assistance: the Interior of Tiamat's Temple

    That's what I think. Big room, no walls, the middle column goes up 100' the outer spires go up 50'. Perfect setting for an ariel battle. Things in one spire have total cover from things in the other.

    D&D 5E (2014) DM Prepared one page of notes.

    No, what are the "supposed" to mean? That's a circular stair case in my simple mind.

    That's awesome. I love the Glabrezu Power Word Stun Reaction.

    D&D 5E (2014) Which Demon Lord(s) are associated with orcs

    I often use Vampric the Destroyer when making "non traditional" orcs. Vamprac (Vampric, something like that) is the evil god of Ogres and Trolls (I think) and at some point, in some book, some where was associated with the Demon Lords. I think.
