One of the issues I have with the rogue is how spaced it its subclasses are. Having to wait until level 9 for the second subclass ability is too long a wait for all of the rogue subclasses.

The blade cantrips made it feel a little more magical, but otherwise I agree that the EK felt a bit lacking until level 7.

Using the halfling as a ranger I think works as a quick way to get a ranger in the game, it has a lot of abilities that would suit a ranger for BX and you can always extend the levels out if desired instead of halting it at 8th level. I do kind of feel like I'd want to allow all weapons though...

I used to read more, I used to walk more and explore my surroundings, I used to sketch and draw; but now I just sit around watching TV shows/movies if I'm not gaming. I guess I have started to collect Transformers toys. I guess that's an interest, I just think they're cool and they've brought...

I have a similar issue. When I hit a wall in how to write a formula in excel or Power BI I'll ask chatgpt, often eventually get an answer that works but I don't really remember how to do it again because it did a lot of the work for me. I try understand what the functions are but find they often...

Generally my campaigns either don't require any specific class, or there is some sort of item or NPC that the team can use to cover what a specific class can do. So if I need the group to get to the City of Brass, there will be a way without needing a high level wizard in the party to cast a...

I've always found 5th level is when classes really get interesting to play, moreso if single-classed. Warriors can hit more consistently since they have 2 attacks, casters get 3rd level spells, everyone has a feat/ASI and a proficiency increase making them much more consistent if they focused on...

Pretty sure he's telling you about the games he runs with that comment.

Cool artstyle for Conan.

Give me your character as a wrestling porno

I'm not sure that it would make a great difference either, but I think when looking at the classes that sneak attack is taking up the damage budget on the rogue.

Page 21 I thought that was Captain Marvel/Shazam for a second.

I have a barbarian 1/wizard 4 and, while it still works, I think I'm going to be missing the lack of fireball in the upcoming session. I remember trying to put something together in 5e that felt like the 4e swordmage which mixed abjurer with eldritch knight, it took too long to really match up...

I'd say rogues don't get extra attack because of how sneak attack scales, that's their damage ramp, not extra attack.

I'll be getting myself back a couple of magic missile slots and a 2nd level spell slot for a spell like blur, mirror image, or invisibility. It really would depend on my spell selection and what we know about an upcoming encounter. Like, if we know a well placed fireball will make the next...

Back when I was running 5e, I considered giving both people in that magical darkness disadvantage on attack rolls as they fumble about. Don't think it ever came up though.

A rather pessimistic take on what would happen. While it might be possible for their popularity to decline, I think the majority of players would either keep playing or move onto something else. New players will still join groups to play, people might be more open to playing different rpgs. I...

I'm most interested in the forgotten realms books, not sure if I'll get them though since I'm moving away from 5e.

I don't think it would really matter, plenty of DnD adjacent RPGs out there now, I've seen people mention how they still haven't got through all of the options in their 5e content and so have enough to play with for years to come so I kind of feel like if WotC goes under (or perhaps just the DnD...

That whole BMX bandit/Angel summoner thing is also something which I've never experienced. I think in the real world, people just pick a class and settle down to play, they don't really care what other options others have and instead get down to playing and having fun. I sort of feel like it's...
