It looks like this is the only thing different from the last version of the Rogue seen in the UAs

My daughter and her friends always complain that there’s too much math involved.

Ah yes, the classic internal struggle. A tale as old as time.

So, you’re saying D&D is just “school.” Great, now I don’t want to play it anymore. 😜

The first thing that came to my mind was Knowledge checks (Arcana, History, Nature, and Religion). The DC would increase (or decrease) depending on how obscure the information is.

Ah, I knew there was something I was missing. I can’t say that my group tends to use the Ready action too often, so I sometimes forget about it.

Perhaps I’m misunderstanding you, but how would casting Haste on the Rogue allow it to get 2 sneak attacks? The second attack is still part of the Rogue’s same turn. I can see how it would double the Rogue’s chances of using sneak attack, because if they miss on the first attack, they have...

Wouldn’t Ekul be Luke backwards?

I was just thinking how I can't wait until the new PHB comes out in September. But then I thought, "No! Wait! I don't want to rush the summer away!" So now I have to be patient, which is something I'm not good at. At least I have some Civ 7 info coming in August.

I know you didn't ask me, but my answer would be: on the one hand, I find Sorcerers to be most closely related to Psions because both of their powers are internal (something within them that they are born with). As opposed to Wizards whose power comes from studying books, or Warlocks who make a...

I especially appreciate how they list sample encounters. Simple and small enough not to take up too much space. Edit: Oops, that’s technically not the stat block; just the monster’s page in the manual.

I also blame the "Similar Threads" at the bottom of each page.

And ENWorld now categorizes this thread as Undead.

Typo, or intentional?

“Do you see what I see?…” Which is precisely why I think the most quintessential D&D mascot is a dungeon inside the belly of an enormous sleeping dragon. Edit: I guess that would be the mascot of “Dungeons in Dragons”

Heck, 1d6 averages 3.5 damage and a Commoner only has 4 HP.

I believe you mean “crebadility”

I was just flipping through the DMG for the first time in forever, and I noticed that Legendary Actions are listed in the Monster Features table on pages 280-281, and it describes how to adjust the effective CR when adding them. Who knew? But that still leaves out Lair Actions.

One thing I’d love to see in this chapter is a list of potential Legendary/Lair actions, and how adding them to monsters affects the final CR.

I voted yes, but with a caveat: as long as the roles are merely suggestions, not mandatory. I would love to see the stat blocks in the 2025 Monster Manual contain things like roles, typical terrain, and groups (solo, small pack, large mob, etc.) to help unseasoned DMs like me plan encounters...
