    D&D 5E (2014) Ranger's favored enemies and spells.

    D&D 5E (2014) Ranger's favored enemies and spells.

    No. The last thing that comes to mind when I hear the word ranger is finesse (as D&D defines it). When I hear ranger, I think of Aragorn, John Rambo, George Washington Sears, Zachary Bass, John Thornton, Davy Crocket, and Daniel Boone. (Boone was 5'8", but he was burly.) Not that there...

    D&D 5E (2014) 10th 5e Survey

    Exactly. For instance, am I happy with starting hit points? You can only pick a degree of happiness, you can't indicate whether you feel they are too high or too low. If I want less hit points, my answer might lead to the opposite. Their survey is useless.

    Pathfinder 1E WotC's playtest and Paizo's playtest -- how do they compare?

    From what I can see, both pay about equal attention to feedback from playtesters - none.

    D&D 5E (2014) Forgotten Realms - How would you publish this setting this time?

    Actually, Salvatore is on record somewhere with a proposed "fix" to FR. It's on Youtube somewhere.

    Is Spell Blasting Doomed to Suck Even More in Next than it did in 3.x?

    And your experience is just that. Your experience. Mine is the exact opposite. Only I'm not claiming my experience as universal. So we're back in Socrates cave. If a claim like that is to be made, FACTS should be presented, otherwise, it's merely anecdotal, and worthless.

    Eh, rangers still don't have magic user spells. I didn't read any further.

    D&D 5E (2014) Idea to handle the "ghoul problem"
