    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Update: 2024 Rulebooks & Survey Results

    Any word on the next playtest packet? It’s been a couple weeks since the last survey ended and I was hoping today would be the day for the new one. Next week is American Thanksgiving so if they don’t release it today, I don’t see them releasing it until the week of the 27th (probably on the 30th).

    D&D Movie/TV Check Out These Previews Of Hasbro's New D&D 'FAST' Channel

    Rats! I wanted to watch Encounter Party, but the Bruins are playing the Sabres tonight

    D&D Movie/TV Check Out These Previews Of Hasbro's New D&D 'FAST' Channel

    So, correct me if I’m wrong, but it seems like I need to watch these shows live as they’re aired? I can’t record them and watch them later or stream them at my leisure?

    D&D General Edition Changes and Brand Identity: Remembering New Coke

    Am I the only person here taken aback by Snarf comparing Coke to the New York Yankees and Pepsi to the …….. Detroit Tigers?!?! Was the Boston Red Sox just too obvious?

    D&D General When do you overrule RAW?

    My take away from Matt’s decision is: while I’m perfectly fine with the last 2 bullet points of the Sentinel feat, the first bullet point should include one of the following: A) a size limitation (…if the target is one size larger than you or smaller) Or B) a saving throw to avoid the speed...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ending movement in occupied square?

    My personal adjudication would be to have all players involved in the collision make either an Acrobatics or Athletics check (probably with disadvantage because they don’t see the collision about to happen). Those that fail are knocked prone. Those that succeed either absorb the impact...

    D&D General Jaquaying the dungeon - a term to avoid

    In my daughter's lingo, "cringe" has now become an adjective. She uses a heavy dose of "slay" as well. The other day she actually said to me, "bestie, what?" I had to remind her that I'm, in fact, not her "bestie."

    D&D General Jaquaying the dungeon - a term to avoid

    It’s a quote from the movie Mean Girls: Gretchen: That is so fetch! Regina: Gretchen, stop trying to make fetch happen! It's not going to happen!

    D&D 5E (2024) Brawler is out. What subclass should replace it?

    I agree with most of your list except for the above lines. I’m not so sure that the “opposing themes” is something that is etched in stone. They might be willing to drop it just to get a 4th subclass into the book. Or maybe it was just an amusing little coincidence that they noticed and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Justin Alexander's review of Shattered Obelisk is pretty scathing

    Speaking of long term adventures, how do people feel about Call of the Netherdeep? I never seem to see it mentioned whenever adventures get brought up in threads. Has anybody here ever run it, or played it? Is it any good? I was thinking of running it for my daughter and her cousins if I can...

    Oof, now I can’t stop thinking about The Yawning Portal with that thought in mind 😬

    D&D 5E (2024) Does WotC view the Monk class as overtuned from their perspective?

    Way to go, Clint! You’ve just rendered us all obsolete. We no longer need to have back and forth discussions on the forums; we just need to type the OPs into Chat GPT and let the AI do it for us. 🤪

    D&D 5E (2024) Playtest 8 Survey

    The only explanation I can come up with (bear with me, because this is a massive stretch) is: Acid, cold, fire, force, lightning, thunder, and I suppose radiant damage all attack the body from the outside, while necrotic and poison damage attack the body from the inside. Psychic also attacks...

    D&D 5E (2014) If WotC Did A New Setting Search

    I would be onboard for a complete Exandria setting. I know we already have the official Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount and the independent Tal’Dorei Campaign Setting Reborn, but I want the whole world including Issylra, Marquet, and the Shattered Teeth.

    D&D 5E (2024) Symmetric Balance vs Asymmetric Balance.

    Wow, that’s a lot of words to say . . . I’m not really sure what, to be honest. I’m not certain that bringing up your own D&D knockoff contributes much to our One D&D discussion. Also, I’ve never played Breath of the Wind, so that segment didn’t really land with me. But I do know it’s a 1...

    D&D 5E (2024) Symmetric Balance vs Asymmetric Balance.

    Wait, what? Cooperation in a party stems from characters being specialists in their own field, working together to achieve a common goal. If everyone can do everything, nobody needs to rely on anyone else to achieve that goal and cooperation is not necessary . Thus, niche abilities lead to it...

    D&D 5E (2024) Homebrew: New ability for Rangers; Rapid attack, it is fueled by spell slots, but adding more martial flavor to ranger.

    Maybe you should change the title of the thread to "My proposed new ability for Rangers . . . " I read the title and thought I had missed a new UA or something.

    D&D 5E (2024) What would you like in the 2024 DMG Instead of the Bastion System?

    Huh. I would have considered these three for the Feywild, not the Shadowfel. See, this is why I need this nonexistent 5e Manual of the Planes!
