    D&D 5E (2014) Gloom stalker dead ambusher questions

    I'm with @Flamestrike on this one. You can't make an attack until you have declared the Attack Action. It's just a courtesy and benefit to smooth play that we let people take those declared actions back if they haven't done anything yet. Very Magic: the Gathering-esque.

    And sometimes... a reply is agreeing with you and building upon what you're saying. Not just arguing against you. :D

    D&D 5E (2014) 20th level Wizard vs the World

    Divination gives truthful answers out to 7 Days. It does require a little finesse, but she should be able to narrow it down and get your true name in under a month. Literally 20 Questions. :ROFLMAO:

    D&D 5E (2014) Low level healing to stay up in a kids game

    Change Cure Wounds: Duration: 8 Hours. A creature you touch regains a number of hit points equal to 1d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier immediately upon reaching 0 HP within the duration of this spell. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs. Much less stress for children if they...

    D&D 5E (2014) 20th level Wizard vs the World

    I think he means the Wizard cannot locate the Sorcerer on the Ethereal plane. But the World Wizard can see the Ethereal plane, because Diviner.

    D&D 5E (2014) Agile Parry + Dual Wielder AC

    As a DM, I would allow it in a heartbeat. RAW, Two-Weapon Fighting requires you to attack with weapons you are holding. You can get around this by making one attack with your primary weapon, the second attack as an unarmed strike (probably a kick, knee, or elbow), and a bonus action to attack...

    D&D 5E (2014) 20th level Wizard vs the World

    Yeah. And Gate can be opened to specific locations, which can include "The place I was just standing at when someone threatening tried to assassinate me." Yes. I don't want the World Wizard to sit in her sanctum and turtle until she conquers the world with summons. I much prefer her scouting...

    D&D 5E (2014) 20th level Wizard vs the World

    Check this out: Create Magen. The really important part is the line saying "Any magen you create with this spell obeys your commands without question." In this case, we're going for the Hypnos Magen. There's nothing wrong with any of the other Magen, but the Hypnos only costs the Wizard 1HP to...

    D&D 5E (2014) 20th level Wizard vs the World

    The World Wizard is already gone. Nothing to target. Also, you don't have Etherealness or Wish. The highest level in the world beside the World Wizard is 11-12th. Gate can open to a specific location. You don't need to use a true name if you are going to a location. I'm not casting True Seeing.

    D&D 5E (2014) 20th level Wizard vs the World

    Okay. Initiative is rolled. You lose (Diviner). Contingency Otiluke's Resilient Sphere triggers. I counterspell your counterspell. I cast Plane Shift and go back home. The next round I cast Gate and open a doorway to you. Over 100,000 Hypnos Magen surge through, along with a small assortment of...

    Prepared spells will depend on what needs to be accomplished in a day. Not even slightly.

    D&D 5E (2014) 20th level Wizard vs the World

    I personally prefer the wizard finding some extremely loyal people, and True Polymorphing them into various ages of HD appropriate Brass Dragons. Even a Wyrmling has 60 Fly, 15 Burrow, line fire breath, and cone sleep breath. It only gets better from there. Perfect rapid response unit, guerilla...

    D&D General Your thoughts on "Social Combat" systems

    Skill challenges for me. 2 rolls for the really simple challenges, and up to 6 for prolonged or really important negotiations. The entire party gets to describe to me how they contribute, and roll something or help someone else.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tasha's Mind Sliver and Shadow Sorcerer. The most efficient spellcaster?

    Oh, I definitely agree! My point is that you're not a Giant Ape or a T-Rex, you just have the shape of one. That includes having a much "smaller" brain, but not the experiences and reactions of someone who has lived with a "tiny" brain all their life. Or even living wild or in captivity. What...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tasha's Mind Sliver and Shadow Sorcerer. The most efficient spellcaster?

    Low stats are definitely an issue, but keeping your personality means keeping your socialized behavior. Not replacing it with the lifetime experience of an animal, because that's not what the spell does. It's more like downgrading your computer. Some files might go away because the HD is...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tasha's Mind Sliver and Shadow Sorcerer. The most efficient spellcaster?

    Well, there's no reason you would have the instinctive or socialized behavior. You could certainly feel fear, rage, or sadness... but you're not going to react like a real animal because you've never been the real animal. The low intelligence would be a big hinderance coming up with new ideas or...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tortle Druid

    I allow the tortle shell to work in any wildshape that has some kind of shell. But not wildshapes with no shell. Essentially I am happy to transfer racial abilities if it's somewhat possible for that creature to have it. Powerful Build is one that I allow to transfer onto almost all wildshapes.

    Can we get a specific timestamp? I work 70-84 hours a week.
