I didn't really need it, but I'm not opposed to it. I think it might give some more interesting ways to build characters and encounters. Love the art!

I heard Beasts actually have their own chapter, specifically for Wildshape and Polymorph.

There are links in my post, use the titles of the monsters

Let's do some comparisons from the videos! Half-Dragon Comparison AC 18 --> 18 HP 65 --> 105 Speed 30 --> 40 plus a jump bonus action 30ft at the cost of 10ft move ATK +5 --> +7 DMG 21.3 --> 36 Empyrean Iota (new celestial) CR 1 AC 13 HP 22 Resistance to all B/P/S ATK +5 DMG 7 Empyrean...

Only recently have I come to understand that a PC dying is a very important moment. Nothing makes the drama land more than having the PC enter the afterlife for a brief moment. I ask them who they see, what their PC feels like. And then when returned, what do they see now? Have they hardened in...

Do we know yet if the question is about permanent death or death that is temporary?

I'll be having a viewing party on the Sly Flourish discord again. I still need 8 entries for our bingo card. So far I have: Makenzie De Armas INTENTIONAL Players will hate this Todd looks excited Todd geeks out about warlocks Justice Arman Glow-up for dragons Bloodied Condition Top to Bottom...

The most important thing for a DM is to build the campaign around the concept of the players returning to their bastion often. If you don't prepare for this, the system won't work as intended. I have been running a bastion based on the playtest rules for about a year and they work really well...

Probably Jan 7th. Their announcements have been on Tuesdays 99% of the time.

It really depends on my setting. My Theros gods were emotional deities, while my wild Ixalan gods are often little more than worshipped wild animals.

I dislike so much of spellcasting in D&D. I really, really dislike the arbitrary spell schools. I dislike how there are so many spells that just help people ignore parts of the game that could be interesting. Why have a rogue when you have find familiar? Why do you have the survival skill when...

Lore changes don’t matter to me. I like having more options, so at my table, I can always pick between what I like most. If the designers aren’t allowed to change the lore, then why bother?

I Worst at what?

What’s this big bag ‘o hit points nature?

Yeah, it’s strong, but… You have to hit first, and then attack the same target to get the benefit. That reins in the power.

Just because there is design space, doesn’t mean it needs to be filled. There exists such a thing as overdesigning. At some point the mechanics get in the way of rolling dice and pretending to kill a goblin.
