    Witch Class

    Your notion has a nice "makes sense" feel to it. A simpler fix may be to rule that the lowest CR level wildshaping can be done without the shawl, but the shawl is required when wildshaping into the higher CR level beasties.

    D&D 5E (2014) VGTM races with a Natural Unarmed attack

    More about headbutts (RW): 1. They are generally ineffective from a purely mechanical aspect (talking RW here). The length of the human neck limits the possible angular momentum; even taking into consideration how much other body parts can be put in play to increase the applied force, will...

    D&D 5E (2014) VGTM races with a Natural Unarmed attack

    @TheHobgoblin: Now that you have clearly explained why headbutts are stupid to use in a game because they would be foolish to use in the real world, will you please address why magic is stupid to use in the same game because it doesn't really exist in the real world? This game is all about...

    QB's Monstrous Races

    Ah-ha! Your thinking is a little clearer to me now. And thanks for the link to Keith Baker's post.

    D&D 5E (2014) UA Druid Speculation/Wishlists

    First thing that came to mind was Forget-Me-Nots until realizing that undead keeping one in mind is probably on the Not-A-Good-Thing list.

    QB's Monstrous Races

    UA - Eberron; TranscendantViewer, & QuietBrowser Core Trait Comparisons: Warforged Unearthed Arcana: Eberron This one has the least to offer in context, just a bare-bones explanation of their origin and a brief statement of their nature, before providing the base traits for a generic warforged...

    QB's Monstrous Races

    Fair enough. That will take a bit more time for the analysis.

    Homebrewed Warforged for 5th Edition

    Hello, again! QuietBrowser has been working on his (her?) own take on warforged. Just in case you haven't seen it, here's the link: Read more: http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?489755-QB-s-Monstrous-Races/page11#ixzz4QwAxzxqh I also posted a link to this Thread in that one.

    QB's Monstrous Races

    I'm a big fan of warforged, and like you, I'm disappointed by the official releases so far for them. Transcendantviewer is in that camp, too, so I think you might appreciate his thinking on this. You can find his thread at...

    D&D 5E (2014) UA Druid Speculation/Wishlists

    Here! Here! to these suggestions, especially the Brehon judges. True confession: I am a fan of Peter Tremayne's Sister Fidelma mysteries, an excellent resource to get a feel of Brehon law.

    D&D 5E (2014) VGTM races with a Natural Unarmed attack

    RAI: the claws are not meant to be a main weapon. Tabaxi are not big cats; they are humanoids with some feline features. What's the non-monk unarmed strike in the PHB? 1 bludgeoning damage (p. 149). 1d4 slashing damage is a nice, flavorful bump, and that's all it should be imho. The same...

    D&D 5E (2014) Selecting the Simplest Sorcerer Solution

    @Sword of Spirit. This is an excellent explanation of aspects of the sorcerer class that concern you. I am especially impressed that you did not include any solutions that presume to fix any problem, instead leaving the discussion far more open than otherwise. (Would that I demonstrated such...

    D&D 5E (2014) Warlock 1/long rest Invocations

    Points to clarify: 1. I assume this invocation becomes available at 5th level; true? 2a. Is this invocation progressive, in that as the warlock gains levels, he/she can choose any prerequisite-appropriate spell from the list? 2b. Or must the warlock choose 1 specific spell from the list when...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why Are Rangers Arcane Spellcasters?

    I like the idea of variation among groups of rangers. Kind of like edition-preferences among D&D fans, eh?

    D&D 5E (2014) Monk

    Had to look it up ... but, yup, giant octopus, CR 1. There it is. Takes 8 levels of druid to get there, so I'm going to have to recalibrate my ASI/class suggestions. LOL Even better: I was playing in a 4e adventure when the DM decided to introduce us to the decapus - a ten-tentacled arboreal...

    D&D 5E (2014) Monk

    Another consideration is the ASI, since it is tied to class level, not to character level. Seven levels of monk nets only the one ASI at 4th level. Adding 12 levels of rogue would give you ASI options at rogue levels 4, 8, 10, and 12, for the typical 5 ASI that most classes end with at level...
