    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 PHB - A much too early review

    I think something closer to BG3 ''encounter'' powers varying for each weapon type would have been the best for my table. I think 5e lacks this layer of resources. There's also the fact that in the end, its just ''moar damage, moar boom-boom-pow'' for martials, instead of more varied...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 PHB - A much too early review

    Maybe its because I dont like the way they implemented those buffs to martial. I think masteries as presented in 2024 are dull and spammy. I think martials deserve way better than those meager ''masteries''; they are better than nothing I guess, but still far from a breath of fresh air from a...

    D&D 5E (2024) Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn

    I hope we get a bunch of faction NPC statblocks, since FR dont have a multitude of truly unique monsters but sure have a lot of humanoid bad guys. The agents/cultists of the the Dead Three in BG:DiA could be reprinted The Calimshan focus could give us more elemental soldier. The elemental...

    WotC How much does Hasbro / WotC impact your feelings towards D&D?

    Genius. The ultimate out-of-touch warcry!

    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    In 5e, its ''you only live once per short rest''. A little more permissive.

    WotC How much does Hasbro / WotC impact your feelings towards D&D?

    MMO is the new catch-all word to represent something I hate without having any fact as to why I do and never bothering figuring out the said ''why''. I preferred when it was ''anime'', felt more natural. For example: '' most of my exes were MMOs. Do you remember when she went full Pinkertons...

    How Dragonbane Pointed out the Clashing Desires of My Gaming Group

    I think your players have to help you make the game work. Play 5e like you did for a good while, but don't try to bend yourself to fit the system, bend the game to fit your desires. Build encounters to be cinematic and action packed, screw the DMG rules. Push your players from action scene to...

    How Dragonbane Pointed out the Clashing Desires of My Gaming Group

    Maybe a tactical skirmish game could do the trick, like Fallout Wasteland or Mutant:Year Zero Zone War, or even the old 4e skirmish game. No full on war gaming, but action packed adventures for you bloodthirsty wife.

    How Dragonbane Pointed out the Clashing Desires of My Gaming Group

    Maybe you could try super simple games with come with procedures for everything and anything, like Knaves and the like. Lots of rolls, easy mechanics, no talky-feely padding 😅

    D&D 5E (2024) Creature Stat Blocks in 2024 Player's Handbook

    The ability block we got today is pretty good. I still think it's somewhat lacking in flavor, but efficiency is 900% spot on. I'm waiting excitement to see the major, more complicated players such as dragons and Beholder.

    D&D 5E (2024) Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn

    Phaerim plz!!! And I guess "chosen of Mystra" can be a new creature type, since there seems to be more and more of them, just like goblins, in a setting where gods were recently forbidden to have chosen or interact directly with Toril after the last RSE, no? (Looking at you, BG3...)

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 PHB - A much too early review

    Exactly. It just, just step over the line of "too fiddly for my players". If the book was just a new layout with awesome art and a working index, I'd have bought a PHB for each of my player! 😅

    D&D 5E (2024) Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn

    Yep, it was icky in a the right place without being full on gross and edgy. On the Schwalb Scale it ranked about 2 out of 10. 😛

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 PHB - A much too early review

    Good review. After reading the book, I finally decided to stay with OG 5e because I don't care much for the mechanical changes. The new presentation of the rules and the general quality of the book is greatly increased though. This is a high quality production for sure, if only for the MTG-like...

    Dungeons & Dragons 2024 Player's Handbook Is Already Getting Errata

    Yeah I wish they'd given us some options for diseases and curses outside of Contagion and Bestow Curses options in Tasha's instead of pretty underdeveloped puzzles, her being a Witch and all that.

    Is it me or is are the remaining/total Hit Dice absent from Beyond character sheet?

    2024 Player's Handbook Officially Live on D&D Beyond

    So far so good, I'm converting my old halfling diviner (nothing fancy) and the whole legacy/2024 is pretty easy to mix and match.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 PHB Release Hype Thread

    Your shop is in Canada? Do you have a website for online shopping? My FLG here in Quebec is not that friendly, and I'd love to support a shop who does not disrespect old ladies shopping for their son's geeky birthday present!
