    D&D 5E (2014) Radically shrinking stat blocks

    Initiative, Stealth and Perception being 1d20+Reflex in this case? Like, Perception is more or less a Reflex saving throw against Stealth (and vice-versa). Question: Where does the +3 to damage comes from? Shouldn't it be +5 (+ Fort). I guess that's probably from 16 STR (+3) + Prof bonus in...

    D&D 5E (2024) 5.24e New Cleric

    Your last line should be CON score, but I would subscribe to your newsletter.

    D&D 5E (2014) Rant about Forced Movement

    Come and Get It! The poster child of all that is wrong in the world for many h4ters. It still think it was a super cool and thematic mass taunt. Having it be a a weapon attack against Will and having mindless creature be affected was a bit much, though (IMO, most mindless creatures should be...

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

    I'm thinking of changing mastery to be a + to hit and damage with specific weapons. Don't much how much of a bonus would be best. Or maybe change mastery to be closer to the old Elven Accuracy feat (3d20 for advantage instead of 2d20) with a few weapons. OR boost martial weapons traits (reach...

    Bringing Back the Fighting Man

    I think basing a Fighter ''extra attack table'' on the cleric's turn undead table could be a good idea. Once per round you gain a free attack against creature of an ever-increasing CR within your weapon range (or in a X ft zone if ranged?). At higher level, very low CR creatures hit by one...

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

    That's part of the problem with design-by-popularity playtests. There's a correlation between casual players and simplicity in a system. But I'd guess most people taking their time to playtest and answer questions are not what we would describe as ''casuals''. Thing is, casual players are a...

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

    To be honest, 2-3, but bad actions count for double. I decided I'll at least give the digital version of 2024 a try, see if it can improve some things at my table, but I almost skipped the whole thing partly because of some D&D related things, but most of my distaste came from WotC actions...

    D&D 5E (2024) MichaelSomething's Official Statement on the 2014 D&D rules going out of print

    It's just a game. Playing it does not make anyone special or, worse, some kind on crusading moral warrior figthing for a superior concept. Your Fandom isn't any better than any other. Just play the game you love with the people you love and forget proselytizing.

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

    My bet is Vecna killing Mystra. It's been a while since she last died.

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

    Because we have a youtube video of someone enjoying the product! That's proof, right?

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

    Best way to convince people to try something new? Crap all over the thing they currently love with a ranting post from the top of a soap box! Elevate and prove the product is better, don't bash down the competition.

    D&D General I miss Mountain Dwarfs

    I generally base the two on the 2 dwarven cultures of Dragon Age: Mountain dwarves still live in their ancestral holds in the mountains. Hill dwarves is a pejorative term used by Mountain ones to insinuate their exiled, surface wandering cousins are lesser than them.

    D&D 5E (2024) Bonus action minor illusion (wizard illusionist 3rd level ability) creating cover and halflings

    Is there a rule saying when you know an object is an illusion, it becomes transparent? If so I'd go with 1/2 cover. If the object stays opaque, I'd go with disadvantage.

    D&D 5E (2024) Heroes of the Borderlands

    What, you want to tell me that my Freekrigspiel story-emergent diagenic westmarch story telling game is really just a bunch of dudes making silly voices?!

    D&D 5E (2024) Greatweapon fighting style? Is this another joke? Did everyone at WotC failed elementary school math classes?

    Honestly, since I cut my D&D teeth on BG1-2, this is my favorite kind on mage: web, charm x, haste, invisibility and then, fireball, fireball, fireball!

    D&D 5E (2024) 5.24e New Cleric

    I don't think it is more powerful. Just more flexible and with better defined features.

    D&D 5E (2024) 5.24e New Cleric

    My favorite part wad the dispel effect on heals. It's super niche, but its super thematic.

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

    I hope not, I was really hoping for a full fledged campaign!

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

    Maybe the often cited Red Wizards campaign will feature Neverwinter? It was the main target for the RW agenda in the Sword Coast in 4e.

    D&D 5E (2024) 5.24e New Cleric

    IIRC it is explained how to mix match those specific options in the 2024 PHB.
