    D&D 5E (2014) Official D&D Basic Discussion Thread

    Yep. Agree. Luckily my players aren't ones to try and play the "rules don't say we can't chain short rests". So no worries here. If it ever became an issue, I can solve it myself. Me: As the smoke clears you see a rather large demonic figure; a balor. ShortRestChainingGuy: A balor!!!!!! But...

    D&D 5E (2014) Monsters for 5e Basic rules

    Something does. Gnolls, wolves, etc. I originally saw it somewhere in the playtest docs I think.

    Or just whip up your own based on previous editions, the Starter set (if you already have it [Canada]), past playtests, or any other info leaked thus far. So as... HOAR FOX Small beast, unaligned ----DEFENSE---- Armor Class 12 Hit Points 13 (3d6+3) Speed 40 ft. ----STATISTICS---- Str 8 (–1)...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D 5e Basic Set: Things that make you go "what?!"

    Scythe will likely appear later I am sure (PHB or some splat book). As for multiclassing.....houserule the requirements away. Problem solved.

    D&D 5E (2014) Official D&D Basic Discussion Thread

    You're adding bonuses regardless of reroll or not. Reroll is just one more step in the cycle. Bonuses/modifiers wouldn't be calculated until after the roll/reroll anyway. Forgetting the mod with whatever buff spell can happen....reroll or not. Since average ability score is 10-11, Easy would...

    Yep. Meteor swarm is nasty. (On par with the 3.x disintegrate spell damage-wise [40d6 max I mean]).

    Good calls. It would be weird to be blinded and/or poisoned, and then bless takes the sting away. :)

    Yep. Cone of cold does 8d6 damage as well. Likely jacked up to balance against increased monster hit points (if the ogre preview, for example, is any indication).

    Regarding the bless spell, wouldn't it be "cleaner" to say it grants advantage to those affected? (I know the average/mean of advantage vs. adding 1d4 can be greater, but still.)

    I can honestly say, I did not expect this. I don't think anyone did.

    D&D 5E (2014) Gaining Skills

    I think you should be able to learn skills during downtime personally. It makes sense. Take time off from adventuring and learn to pilot a boat. Or learn to weave a basket. Or whatever. However, me personally, if I implemented skill training during downtime, I would require a cost investment...

    D&D 5E (2014) Starter set being shipped early in Canada

    Even if class/background/race/ability scores/etc are the same, can't you just change personality? No mechanics needed for that. Just role-playing.
