    D&D 5E (2024) One D&D Grappling

    Wow, a topic where this forum is indistinguishable from Reddit for a change. The new grappling rules cannot be optimized to the same extent yes, but the old rules were also silly with what could be achieved. These rules better mirror what I expect to happen if adventurers wrestle large dangerous...

    D&D 5E (2024) One D&D Grappling

    The save to escape the grapple happens at the end of the monsters turn. That means if you grapple successfully they cannot move for at least one turn and can attack only you without suffering disadvantage. If they do make the save you still have the opportunity to grapple again in the same spot...

    D&D General Rebuilding a new monk (+)

    One thing I would enjoy is if the class would allow you to use Ki for extra uses of innate abilities. So a Dragonborn could spend Ki to use their breath weapon attack an additional time per day . This would come with the assumption that the Ki pool is larger.

    D&D General Rebuilding a new monk (+)

    I think an important question to answer is what is the role of the Monk outside combat? What history or genre fiction do we draw from there? Are they doctors, acolytes, scribes? Does martial arts training take all of their time?

    D&D 5E (2024) August 18th Tarrasque-sized D&D News (Poll)

    There’s a new book placeholder on Amazon Canada https://www.amazon.ca/dp/0786968281/ref=mp_s_a_1_44?qid=1660350285&refinements=p_27%3AWizards+RPG+Team&s=books&sr=1-44

    D&D General Rebuilding a new monk (+)

    I’ve put a lot of thought to this topic and a few months ago I’d have wanted this or the other mechanical improvement. I think it is more important however that the class has a core identity. To me that should be the power of self - body and mind, amplifying the innate. The are classes for...

    D&D 5E (2014) Wonders of the Multiverse survey is up

    I always ask for new weapon feats and more Ki for Monks, not expecting to get that but at least they know it’s my feedback :) The “more Ki” guy likes Cartomancer

    D&D General An In-Depth Review of Journeys Through the Radiant Citadel

    I love this book, it has given me so many ideas. I actually also appreciate that some of the adventures have ties to real world festivals so that you can run something other than the Halloween or Christmas one-shot.

    D&D 5E (2014) New Unearthed Arcana: Wonders of the Multiverse

    I was staring at the Cleric domain and I don’t feel like all the little ways to give bonus and penalties really convey the theme. What about letting the Fate Cleric cast a certain number of d20s (3?) at the beginning of the day and then keep those rolls. Let’s call them fate dice. At any point...

    D&D 5E (2014) New Unearthed Arcana: Wonders of the Multiverse

    In previous UAs I was bothered by how weak some of these feats were but I see where they are going with it now. It’s mostly a flavor thing that you get for free at level 1 and sets you up for a story arc that completes at the end of Tier 1. What could be interesting is if they do this again...

    D&D 5E (2014) New Vecna Battle (Let's Get Ready to RUMBLE!!!) - CONCLUDED

    Realized today that Spirit Shroud pre-cast would also be a good spell in this fight.

    D&D 5E (2014) Vs Vecna battle simulations.

    People laughed when I suggested it as the MVP cantrip for this fight in another thread. I guess this proves something.

    OSR How to make a Witcher for OSE

    Ok, so if I take the Ranger, give it the Half-Orc Infravision and Charisma penalty, Paladin saving throws and then the five abilities above would that be balanced? It seems maybe too good? Instead of Infravision how about allowing Magical research but only for traps and potions? If it needs to...

    OSR How to make a Witcher for OSE

    Excellent, I have that Zine. The Skill based makes a lot of sense. I think it might actually have something in the Mystic I can use for Aard.

    Yes, this would be Advanced rules. Which save table do you recommend?

    OSR How to make a Witcher for OSE

    Hi everyone, I’m brand new to OSE and was wondering what would be the best way to make a Witcher? My initial thoughts are maybe race as class by combining Ranger with Half-Orc, the thought being they get Infravision (for a gold cost making Cat potion) but get a negative reaction from the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Get The Vecna Dossier Free At D&D Beyond

    I confused his immunities and didn’t see the resistances, my bad. Chill Touch I meant in the context of subtle spell, quickened spell suggested earlier up.

    D&D 5E (2014) Get The Vecna Dossier Free At D&D Beyond

    The real MVP cantrip here is Chill Touch. 120ft range and no 80 hp healing. Edit: I also think the Iggwilv stat block murders this one in a one on one fight

    D&D 5E (2014) New Unearthed Arcana Today: Giant Themed Class Options and Feats

    Could this be a case of options for different books combined into one UA? The Druid class in terms of the examples given really fits with the MTG Ikoria setting while the Giants and Runes fit with Kaldheim. Is there anything in the MTG lore of these worlds that could make these worlds collide in...
