Some abilities tell you how many dice to roll (i.e. 3d6), while others just tell you which die to roll (i.e. d8). In the case of the latter, you roll a number of dice equal to your proficiency. So, I suppose it would matter how many of the former abilities you take versus how many of the...

Who knew there was such great AI in '92!?!?

I was just flipping though my high school yearbook and noticed that half my classmates' pictures are AI generated.

Mickey Mouse RPG: are you a REAL MAN or a mouse?

Also, for those who don't like the specific scene depicted in the art, this is the main piece of art for the Wizard. There might also be more artwork throughout the rest of the Wizard class description. Maybe one might be of a wizened old caster in long robes and a pointy hat.

Or maybe the Abjurer's Arcane Ward ability.

perhaps it's just a baby jackalope whose rack hasn't grown yet.

For some reason, red seems like a very “D&D” color to me. And with it being the 50th anniversary, gold is a fitting color choice. I wouldn’t mind seeing a cover depicting a fire(breath)fight between a red dragon and a gold dragon.

Saltmarsh and Yawning Portal came out before Explorers Guide to Wildemount, but I’ll have to wait until I get home from work to check if Golden Vault has any Exandria suggestions. If my memory serves me correctly, which it rarely does, I don’t think it had any for that setting.

I guess it’s too much for me to hope for suggested locations in Exandria 😢 It looks like I’ll have to do it myself like I did for Yawning Portal.

I don’t want to speak for the OP, but maybe they meant “if you make the bonus attack from GWM, can you smite on it too?” Or maybe the OP misunderstood what their player was asking 🤷🏻‍♂️

I don’t know why you would think that when the OP specifically mentioned “damage bonus” in the first paragraph and “feat” in the second paragraph.

Yes, you can carry a third Weapon in your inventory as your Inventory Weapon (below the "Inventory" section of your character sheet). But, in order to make your Inventory Weapon become your Active Primary or Secondary Weapon, you would need to erase each of the two weapons and re-write their...

A slight nitpick: I don't really like the way the Active Weapons and Inventory Weapons are listed on the character sheet. Say my Warrior has a Longsword and Dagger as his Primary and Secondary weapons and a Greatsword as his Inventory weapon. If I decide I want to switch to using my...

Oh, I would try to run it “by the book” at first. But I can foresee it quickly spiraling out of control as three 12 year old girls yelled over each other trying to take their actions all at the same time, and me trying to rein them in and discern what each of them was saying. Or, if I turn out...

Conversely, I was thinking about how this "non-Initiative" combat would port over to D&D. My initial thoughts were: 1) During combat, players can act at any time that makes sense for the story. 2) If a player makes an attack roll and the result on the d20 is <10, a random enemy gets to take...

A) I said, " I think if I ever run . . ." It's not set in stone. B) I know myself and my players, and I can see how a lack of initiative order would be utterly chaotic and disruptive to our play experience.

I think if I ever run this game with my group I will institute the following houserule: Initiative: At the start of combat, each player rolls their Duality Dice and adds their Agility modifier to determine the order of combat. If a player Rolls with Hope, they still mark a Hope slot. If a...

I fall on the side of “roll playing.” My character might be a smooth talking Bard with an 18 Charisma, but IRL I probably have a Charisma under 10. I’d hate to have my character suffer for my personal inabilities. That’s why my character has Charisma-based skills in the first place. The...

In my old 3rd edition group, our DM had us do that. It was very terrifying trying not to die again with my new, weak character. But eventually I'd work my way back up to within a level or 2 of the rest of the party. In my current 5 edition group (where I'm the DM), we've yet to have a...
