    D&D 5E (2014) What Subclasses would you like to see?

    As some wrote before: A druid with a pet. A non magical ranger. Also a summoner who can cast low lvl summonings.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e ranked skill system

    Sure. Lets take an example of an elf rogue with charlatan backaground. Standard 5e skill system 1st lvl Rogue starts with 4 skills and 1 tool from his class, 1 skill from his race (perception) and 2 skills and 2 tools from his background. He has total 7skills and 3 tools. His proficiency...

    D&D 5E (2014) What do you like to see in the Dungeon Master's Guide?

    Not something fancy. Someone could play a summoner from 1st lvl in the last two editions. Now the summonings are few and mid to high lvl spells. Especially for the wizard.

    D&D 5E (2014) What do you like to see in the Dungeon Master's Guide?

    No cantrips magic system, a *real* summoner class, a *fun* animal companion class (i know this is subjective), a rank based skil system, ways to make your own subclasses and magic systems. I would love to see these rules.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e ranked skill system

    Thank you very much for your input. I don't have problem to allow them to choose any skill they want, and i agree with you about the "spirit" of 5e regarding the skills, but in PH we still have "class skills", which means that WotC wanted, at least in a limited way in comparison with the...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e ranked skill system

    Just added the last sentence which inticates that the ranks cannot exceed the proficiency bonus.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e ranked skill system

    Although the 5e skill systems has certain merits our 3.x gaming group wants more diversity. So, i tried and created a ranked skill system under 5e context. I know that at dmg will be a ranked skill system but until then we will use a homebrew rank skill system. At 1st lvl. - You can put ranks...

    D&D 5E (2014) Anything You Miss From Past Editions vs 5E?

    Exactly the word that i was searching all these days!

    D&D 5E (2014) Ranger

    From what i have read i also find the ranger a disappointment. First of all, 5e ranger is too magical for my taste. It is a martial/caster class. The iconic rangers i have in my mind from Aragorn to Drizzt hardly cast a spell. Moreover, "Primeval Awareness", the ability that a ranger can use...

    D&D 5E (2014) Beastmaster's animal companion: can it survive for 2 rounds?

    I think that the beastmaster is part of a greater issue that has to do with the management of the creatures. Have in mind they avoided also to give druid an animal companion (what a pity) and they didn't give summoning spells to the wizards (at least in the form of the summoning spells of the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Summoning Spells

    It is funny also because the conjurer as ability has that his summonings are much stronger while his first summoning spell is 4th lvl? He has to wait 7 lvls to be a summoner and use his abilities? Let's hope DMG will cover this otherwise the summoner subclass is really underwhelming. And...

    D&D 5E (2014) Summoning Spells

    I consider to be a glaring omission. It is pity because summoner was my favorite kind of wizards too. :/

    D&D 5E (2014) Monster Manual First Spoiler!

    I love gem dragons! I would be very happy to see them return!

    D&D 5E (2014) Finally

    Thank you again! So, there is no a "conjure monster I-IX" spell or something equivelant? The summoner has no in an every spell level a summoning spell?

    D&D 5E (2014) Finally

    Thank you for all this info guys! What about summoning spells. In Alpha there weren't many and as i remember there weren't the classical summon monster and summon nature ally spell. Are they back? Have them substitute them with something else?

    D&D 5E (2014) Starter Set - how many sessions did it took your group to finish the adventure?

    I have not finish it, but i estimate it would take 4 six-hour sessions. One session per part. :)

    D&D 5E (2014) And the backgrounds are...

    I am the only one who thinks 13 are way too few? This seems to be probably the innovation and the stronger feature of the 5e character creation. It is pity to have only 13 default choices. Of course anyone can make one, but is good to have more for lazy characters and dms.

    D&D 5E (2014) TIAMAT! It's that gargantuan mini we've all been waiting to see!

    Am I the only one that Tiamat seems to me ...cheap? I have all the other big dragons and this sculp and color combination doesn't fit to my tastes very well. Bahamut on the other hand is more beautiful dragon, although as many have noted it doesn't seem like a platinum dragon... :P

    D&D 5E (2014) Muls - 5th edition?

    In my new campaign i intent to put muls as a playing race. Although i have never played/bought Dark Sun, I always loved the concept of them. Do you have any suggestion of what racial abilities would muls have in 5th edition? I would imagine something like: Muls: +2 Con, +1 Str Advantage on...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiefling preview!

    Well, i am another planescape fan and i am disappointed in this approach of tieflings. Unispiring at least and very limited in scope in comparison with the PS approach. Conversly, i liked the art more than the female dwarf.
