    D&D 5E (2024) What would you put in 1D&D from 4E?

    Maybe I wasn't clear. I hate that potions burn your surge for a fixed amount of HP independent of your Surge Value. I love healing surges, but potions in 4e really suck IMHO, specially for defenders. I think they should give HP based on your surge value, even if it's a fraction of it.

    how about we stop spoiling a movie that has nothing to do with this series?

    The Last of Us (HBO Max)

    people keep talking about choice. There was no choice, there was no doubt, there was no other option. This girl rescued Joel from himself, made him "whole" again. She is his daughter. He will not loose another daughter because a military group decided that murdering her is for the better. JOEL...

    D&D 5E (2024) What would you put in 1D&D from 4E?

    I agree with your general point, but just for clarity, healing potions in 4e are still a fixed amount of HP, they burn one of your surges to recover a fixed amount of HP. I always hated that.

    I’m not advocating for more, but it’s hard to expand on my comment without talking more about part 2. To me they showed violence when violence told an important part of the story on season 1, not gratuitously.

    Now, broadly speaking about season 2… I think they will tone down the violence porn even more than they did here

    D&D 5E (2024) What would you put in 1D&D from 4E?

    Healing surges are a great metric to see when you need a long rest too. I feel like 5e set everything up to do healing surges (eith hit dice giving you amole design space) but gave up half of the way there.

    And that’s where he will focus all of his violence.

    To me, Marlene is just one step away from becoming like that other rebel leader in Kansas City. Sure, her reason for denying the daughter of her best friend the choice to sacrifice herself is “better” than Joel’s reason to go on a murder spree, but she still did that. She also is recruiting kids...

    Well, no one needs to worry about Joel not looking like a ruthless murderer

    Mando season 3

    Not if you consider translations, in portuguese, Count Doku basically means "count from the *sshole", Capitain Panaka means "capitain idiot" and Sifo Dyas means "you used to f yourself"....

    can I ask for the swordmage too?

    Mando season 3

    I connect the struggle with the saber directly with the struggle of being a mandalorian leader. Din doesnt see himself as a leader of anything, in fact he can see himself only as a follower, trying his best to come back to a leader and a cult that excomunicated him. While he has this view, he...

    D&D 5E (2014) A Mess of OP Characters (magic items, rest mechanics, etc.)

    One thing that I didn't see being said here (maybe I missed it) but I think is really important is to talk with your players. Yo said they are complaining that the sorcerer is doing everything, well, making the game fun is the players job too. Be honest with them and say that some rules were...

    I don't see how 3PP adventures not following 5e's structure is 5e's fault.

    D&D 5E (2024) Eldritch Blast as a class feature of the Warlock

    Tormenta20, a brazillian fantasy setting has a rather elegant solution for this problem. Any ability that is considered magicar has a dragon symbol next to it's description, so you now that anything that affects spells also affects that ability. I find this to be a simple and effective solution.

    Mando season 3

    I thought it was a fine movie, but the third act, and mainly the last 15 minutes are some of the best star wars we've ever gotten. It actually improves de viewing of episode 4 in my opinion.
