First, the trio is wasting their time doing all that healing. 'I'll spend all my spell energy on healing you at the end of the adventuring day. Just before we take a long rest - WHICH HEALS ALL OUR HIT POINT DAMAGE.' So I shouldn't worry about that. The default assumption is that they will be...

I knew that about savage tide, and forgot it. :P I suppose my point is that of course D&D adventures mimic each other, that's how things that share themes work. I'm not sure people complaining about that add anything to the overall discussion. At most they are drawing a parallel that actually...

This. This exactly. Could, at this point, anyone come up with anything and no one go 'It's just X rehashed'? I doubt it.

That is a stretch. But it does kind of point to the fact that maybe whatever they produce, we are going to be able to point to another product and go 'it's a bit like that one'. That's due to the fact that D&D is buiolt on familiar terms. They tried to do an entirely different take on D&D with a...

So what was Out Of The Abyss a 're-hash' of? Also, Having re-read Against The Giants recently as a DM, I think I am of the opinion that Storm King's Thunder is better. Curse of Strahd is a pretty solid product with great additions. So if you want they want to re-mix, I'm not gonna dismiss the...

This has to beth weirdest start to a thread ever. OP posts a question whis clearly going to get a lot of 'YMMV' answers. Then gets four positive responses, two negative ones, two post about physics but 7 'YMMV but if it's fun, go for it' responses - complains about negative and physics posts...

I meant that because you chose to run adventurer's league, now you're trapped within adventurers league. AL controls the input of your campaign. It's kind of like being in a domineering relationship.

This is really interesting. You're kind of locked in a cycle of control.

A lot of people came up with some good suggestions. I'd add one other thing - Dragons fly. They also have ranged breath weapons. How do you outrun that? I'm assuming you don't actually want to kill the sharpshooter and the idea of damaging them isn't because you want them to actually die but...

My point was really that is doesn't really die then. If D&D has stopped at 2nd ed, I'd still be playing it. But I feel I might be arguing semantics here rather than adding to the conversation. With your clarification, I realise that my point is tangential to the point you are making. As for...

Most of this - Rules for stuff we could just be roleplaying. Magic Item Economy Stuff - Well. About Dang Time.

How, theoretically, would that happen? Even if wizards stop making the game, it doesn't stop people like us playing it.

My bad. I just assume everyone on the internet is yelling at me.

I think I straight up don't agree with this. For a few reasons. 1) Nature clerics and Druids to me, aren't doing the same thing 2) I have no issues with two things doing the same thing differently. If two players want to build ninjas but one wants to go shadow monk and another wants to go...

I know this. That was my point. That precedent for Druid as a separate class already existed and it wasn't a 3rd edition invention.

I think druid was justified as separate to a nature cleric for all sorts of reasons. Or are you worried the nature cleric suffered somehow? Why be concerned with differentiation at all?

I think the problem is, with new legends, is there are more of us able to talk now. Everyone agreeing what a good dungeon was easier back when the communities voice was minor and channelled through very specific events. If I was listing my legendary dungeons, how like would you be to agree with...

I tend to agree now I have thought about it. As stated in the 'defence' I mustered, I was only really doing that to understand what my Dm at the time might have been thinking. I know my party got the same idea though so maybe we were all treating anti-magic fields differently back then. But that...

Didn't 1st edition introduce the druid, in like the AD&D handbook as a standard class? BY creating it as a class back then, surely they were saying it was different.

Well first, this is how another Dm explain it to me after we'd decided not to pick up the staff and had finished the adventure. I thought then that it was literally the best trap I'd ever seen. I'm sad to hear it apparently isn't the case. But as I enjoyed it let me make a case for it anyway...
