    D&D 5E (2014) I have the DMG!

    What's odd is if you set a trap's danger to Setback, say the party has two characters affected by it. One 4th level, one 5th level. The 4th level character takes 1d10 damage. The 5th level character takes 2d10 damage. From the same trap. :) (I'd never play it that way as DM, but it's something...

    D&D 5E (2014) I have the DMG!

    Morale is a DC 10 Wisdom save for the creature or group leader. If the opposition is overwhelming, save is made at disadvantage. (DM can also say the save auto fails.) Saves are made when creature/NPC is surprised, reduced to half or less hit points the first time in combat, has no way to harm...

    D&D 5E (2014) Where is Trap the Soul???

    Probably editing yep. Check out the minimus containment option under Imprisonment. That seems to be where it ended up.

    D&D 5E (2014) I have the DMG!

    The party only ends up with "bounded accuracy breaking gear" if the DM allows it. Even in canned modules/adventures, the DM can and should modify it to fit his campaign.

    Eric "Shade" Jansing (1971-2012)

    I think Shade would've dug 5e. And yeah, I agree with ya, he'd likely be knocking away at 5e monsters as we speak.

    Eric "Shade" Jansing (1971-2012)

    "Old News" I guess, but we did put a dedication to Shade in Tome of Horrors 4 (which came out last year). It read simply "This book is dedicated to Eric “Shade” Jansing (1971–2012). Thanks for keeping the Creature Catalog flame burning at ENWorld. You will be missed my friend."

    A Skellyfish?

    D&D 5E (2014) Create or Destroy Water spell ruling

    I would also say no. If the player insists, then the next NPC party they encounter: all clerics, armed with create/destroy water spells. Have fun.

    D&D 5E (2014) Interesting (if you like geeky analysis) little anomalies in the 5e NPC statblocks

    The DC is figured like a monster's DC for attacks: 8 + proficiency bonus + ability modifier (in this case Strength). So, 8 + 3 + 4 = DC 15.

    D&D 5E (2014) Gamehole Con Live Tweeting Perkins Panel

    I believe this is a bit disingenuous. Nothing was stolen. Paizo used an existing license/method (created by WotC themselves) to create a game that filled a void left when WotC decided to change the way D&D worked. 4e was a drastic departure in many ways from all editions that came before. Lots...

    D&D 5E (2014) How would you do Yellow Mold in 5e?

    Pretty sure it doesn't cure Step 6: Death. DM: "Your character dies." Player: "All good. We take a long rest and I sleep it off." DM: "You're doing it wrong."

    D&D 5E (2014) Preview 3: Rings

    Yep. They may adjust the bonus, but I doubt the ring offers resistance to physical damage.

    D&D 5E (2014) Next DMG Sneak Preview is Up! Figurine of Wondrous Power!

    Folding Boat of the Dwarvish Lords? Folding Boat of Vecna?

    D&D 5E (2014) Can you see when you're Blinded?

    Or when they arrive, ask them to close their eyes. Explain to them that's what the blinded condition is. Then throw the DMG (1e, because it's nice and heavy) at them. Ask them why if they can see when blinded they didn't see the DMG flying at their heads.

    D&D 5E (2014) Can you see when you're Blinded?

    Too easy. How about a horde/flock/dragoon of blind dragons? Better yet, blind monks riding blind dragons. But I definitely agree with ya, PC. Mock them. Mock them all the way.

    D&D 5E (2014) Monsters You Miss

    That was/is the Lamia Noble (1e FF). The original Lamia (1e MM) has the same type lower torso as in the 5e MM.

    D&D 5E (2014) Have shared actions returned in 5e?

    House rule? Cause I don't recall 2e mentioning System Shock roll to avoid dying from a fall.

    They did if you made an NPC cleric, fighter, wizard, sorcerer, rogue, etc.
