Well actually no, it's not. Things of a similar design increase in damage with size. A medium sized longsword does 1D8, large one does 2D8, and a huge one does 3D8, etc... Seeing a Gargantuan dragon bite for 2D10, the same as a large one, bothers me as much it would seeing as a Huge Fire...

They did not. And on a personal note, the group included a 13th level Paladin. I never realized how annoying they are until we had one with a 20 CHA join the team :) 10' immunity to fear and charm, +5 to everyones saving throws, and come 15th he gets perma Prot vs Evil. That is one very...

I don't see any reason to get too worked up about it. CR's are in my book like the Pirate Code, guidelines. But my brother is pretty adamant that they represent hard intel that has been playtested for balance and any deviation is a sin to him. That being said, my main issue was that for...

How do you get an avg non lair damage of 134.3 per round? I see 118 + 109 +109, avg damage which comes out to 112 per round, 22.3 pt less. Also, if the dragon is fighting one opponent the damage drops considerably.

I'm actually his DM, and my concern wasn't with the overall damage output so much as with the fact the claws and bite base damage seem to stop increasing at Young Adult. So even though they go up a size category each time to Huge and Gargantuan, Claws do a base 2D6 and Bite is 2D10 still, which...

Huzzah! How charmingly well said. Happy thanksgiving all!

No, that's SEPIC.

We need more EPIC updates. Scratch that, SEPIC updates :)

I've been running a solo campaign for my brother, started him out at 12th level with a Warlock, a more advanced version of his character in another campaign we run with some other friends. So far, I've had no problem with the power levels, and he seems to be quite versatile. Granted, it's a...

You had me at "Think Obyrn Martell" :) Great idea for a fighter type! Whatever bring you joy to play is what I say, and that is a good idea.

Wow, thanks guys!

First off, I'm down with all things Cthulu/Far Realms, so kudos on your source material for inspiration. Second, sounds like it would be Huge in size, not Gargantuan, but as DM up to you.

Well to be fair, a character between 9th-14th level is a real badass. Not go pick a fight with an ancient dragon badass, but compared to normal folk, pretty burly. Add into that a racial max stat of 20, we are talking Seal Team 6 rockstar levels. And a 15 AC is pretty middle of the road...

Ok, so I'm a lazy DM, I'm sure there are more than a few of you others out there. I have some big picture ideas, but I suck at actually drawing maps and fleshing out the actual adventures, it seems too much like homework for me and I hate homework. But I still want to play more and I've got...

Now I've proposed this rule with one of my players who is very much against it, saying that the folks who made 5E have already playtested things. Basically I am all on board with the new mechanics and like them, but don't like that big creatures don't really seem to hit that hard. This has...

Actually, as long as your bodies are hidden and/or well guarded, and you're not fighting the Githyanki on the Astral Plane, this spells seems are great way to explore dangerous areas of the outer planes with little to no risk. Wanna raid a Balor's stronghold and loot his treasure? Great, go...

The Cherry has it's roots deep in my mind as well :)

Welcome back! I had almost given up on the dream of seeing an update on the best piece of DND Story Hour of all time. Thanks for coming back Sep! Here's hoping we don't have to wait as long for the next one, but no pressure :)

I hope Sep isn't dead or something. Sep, if you're out there, can you drop a line to at least let us know whats up? Some closure would be nice if you've wrapped things up :) And if you have indeed retired the saga, thank you so much for all the work putting it here for our enjoyment!

Sep, seriously, tell me how much and where to send it, I'll pay cash money for an update :)
