Relic nods his head, content with the plan. "If we fly around the outside of the wall, there will be little need for extra measures of stealth. Armour does not make a noise flying through the air. If we want to save our resources so be it, but let us begin." ​

Not planning to run 5e at this stage but if I did I would use my homebrew world that is a crumbling Forgotten Realms becoming more and more Ravenloft-esque as the Shadowfell seeps through the cracks of reality. My players are not RPG regulars (Don't visit online forums, don't buy rulebooks...

I know it is hard to tell on the internet sometimes but the four smiley faces before the -ing seem to suggest you are getting agitated. Maybe time to put into perspective that its just one sub class of one class option of a game. You don't like the mechanic for your own reasons, others disagree...

It is the players job to wreak havoc on the DMs plans. It is the DMs job to accept this and not have plans which are set in stone but rather ones that dynamically change and adapt according to the actions the PCs choose to take. The mechanic is squarely placed in the DMs hands, which means the...

I guess the GM could make up an effect of the wild surge, but that is not what is meant in the power description of Tides of Chaos by 'the DM can have you roll'. It is not 'the DM can have you roll on the chart or make one up on the fly that better fits the scene'. It is 'can have you roll' or...

No, I don't think so. It reads that if you use the Tides of Chaos, from that moment on until you gain the Tides of Chaos power (after a full rest), each time you cast a sorceror spell that is not a cantrip, the DM can have you roll on the table. That is a cool way to leave the manifestation of...

Nice! Maui healed himself before he cast that spell by the way. He should be back up to 70 HPs. So ... who's going to go into the water and check out the underwater frescoes? :) Not sure how useful it is to rush open the next door to try and get the most out of our water elemental... too many...

If I am reading it right, you won't. At least you wouldn't if I was DMing you. If you use Tides of Chaos the DM can have you roll on the table each time you cast a sorceror spell. And then you can use Tides of Chaos again. I thought that was a pretty darn cool way of doing it! DM can see if...

Oops! Sorry mate! I will edit the last post! It will be Rain who's name will be most known in that case (Sorry Sabynha!. Umm ... Master Phreys ... sure. I will go back and remind myself who that is and add something. Edit: Okay, Master Phreys, got it. Rain is expecting information from the...

Maui blinks several times, looking to Menik and then to Vincenzo clearly baffled by these new and far too similar words. "What?" he says simply but then turns away. "Never te mind. Maui will pray to Tane for help. Maybe te Water Spirit come and squash te liches." Maui intones a prayer in his...

Just from the responses in the thread so far, and reading the Durable feat myself, I have to agree that it seems poorly worded and open to different interpretation unless there is a definition somewhere in the rules as to what a 'roll' entails i.e. the pure roll of the dice or the dice and any...

Maui shakes his head at Vincenzo. "No. Not te liches. Te bloodsuckers. Maui does not think te liches live in te water if they make te big mumbo jumbo magic stick that chase te magic away. And I hope if there is te lich, there is te one lich and not te many liches. But if te bloodsucker is te...

Relic nods approvingly at Orlando and the information the sneak provides. "I can cast a spell on Daylilly so he can fly. He is obviously strong enough to carry someone else in tow as well. I can fly myself given I am a student of Air and Priest to the Wind. Who has no means to magically fly? He...

When the group finally decide to move from that restful spot in the sun and enter Crystalbrook it takes but a few moments for the town to be set abuzz, rumour of the heroe's return spreading like wildfire. Soon the heroes find themselves surrounded, pulled and pushed ths way and that as the...

"Te Bloodsuckers are in te water. They come to te light. Make te magic light over there on te other wall quickly" points Maui, hoping that one of the magic users is able to create a magical light as he shuffles back from the edge taking out his wand of healing. He gives himself a few taps in...

When the door safely clunks on the improvised wedge Maui holds it a moment longer to make sure it has held and then lets go. If nothing else untoward happens he makes his way gently over the covered pit to the water's edge where he mutters a prayer to Tane before he touches his temple...

Maui's feline form shuddered as Taniwha slips through the closing door in response to the low rumble emitted from his master's throat. A moment later as Vincenzo and Menik held the door fast Maui stood in his true form once more. At first he just stood there. The narrow steps that lead down...

Relic rubs his wooly beard for a while and then says: "I can give one of you the ability to fly. Or I think I could create a stone ramp up to the top of the wall with a few minutes consulting with my spellbook. perhaps heading across the top of the inner wall is not such a bad way to reach the...

I had only read the first few pages of the thread when I replied (luckily). I don't want to step into what is (or at least seems to be) an irreconcilable difference of opinion, but I do have to agree with permeton's above statement. I remember the transition to 4e. WotC did themselves no...

Thanks for the link to the discussion thread. My leaning is more for flavour reasons. Even at my table top game magic items are rarely rarely found in shops, and then there is a selection that matches the flavour of the shop. They are treasure hoard rewards for me. My players are all...
