Heck, if the target is already next to the spikes, you don't even need a spell slot! Just cast gust on them to push them 5 feet!

Objects launched with catapult must weigh at least one pound. So probably no to the DBF bead and the OFS sling stone. Huh. It says you can throw a sphere 40 feet but can only sling one out to its normal range (30 feet). That doesn't really make sense; I'd allow you to use the sling's long range...

Find familiar + enlarge/reduce + be a Small race = getting fly two levels early, sort of

Yeah, I doubt minor repairs are that hard to make for adventurers with access to the mending cantrip. Although technically, the book doesn't use the extra "er." But it seems like it's what they meant.

Might be cool to have something where the players have to gradually reclaim the stronghold room by room. Gnolls worship demons, right? So it stands to reason there'd be a lot of nasty remnants of their blasphemous rituals and such. At lower levels, the portion of the castle they're trying to...

Every now and then I come back to toying with the idea of using these tools to make improvements to mechanical weapons, do things like give a crossbow the "burst fire" property.

But what if I am the DM? >: One thing I do do for rock gnomes is interpret the three devices they can craft as examples, and let my players use the Tinker trait to build anything of a similar complexity. For instance, one player asked if she could build an alarm clock, and I was like, sure...

I remember back before my account on the Wizards of the Coast forums got all screwed up, making it impossible for me to even look at a thread without being redirected to another page, this cool guy named Foxface started a collaborative effort to create a campaign setting. We called it...

Was that one very long adventure/chain of adventures, or a whole bunch of unique adventures going off a central theme? I wish I could play this game that often. As it stands, it seems like books like these are more for people who don't need to take proficiency in whips just to get enough friends...

Ah. Well, technically, most normal people do use a silver standard (most of the mundane equipment costs less than one gold piece), and only the wealthy use gold. But adventurers are always assumed to be wealthy. What are the advantages to using silver?

This is the clearest interpretation I've seen yet. So... for those of us who aren't using the alternative skill rules, it would come out to: Perception: Attempt to notice a living thing that is hidden from you. Perception, Passive: Sets the DC for a check made by a creature attempting to hide...

That other thread about alchemist's tools reminded me of this. If the things you can craft with alchemist's supplies are unclear, the uses for tinkerer's tools are an enigma. There is a single solitary example of something you can craft with them, and it's just on the rock gnome racial traits...

Sometimes I just want to run down a dungeon hallway with my eyes closed and my ears plugged, just to make things simpler.

So I'm gathering this adventure is really, really, good. I'm getting pretty interested. But... urgh, as someone who has never purchased a published adventure before, ~$50 just seems like a lot to me. I mean, that's how much a core rulebook costs. I only considered the rulesbooks worth it because...

Cool story! Out of curiosity, why were you measuring currency in silver rather than gold?

Well, there's no specific alchemist class like in Pathfinder, but I once made a gnomish transmuter wizard with the Guild Artisan: Alchemist background. I was proficient in alchemist's tools and the DM let me have a homunculus for a familiar. I wasn't expecting that kind of leeway in a store-run...

I actually converted a bunch of alchemical items in ENWorld Arcana, which was supposed to be this giant collection of different people's houserules. Not sure what happened with that, but this is what I contributed: Additional Alchemical Items These variants improve on the base selection of...

Ooh! No question, I'd want a Sequin Land campaign setting. For those who are unfamiliar, it is the world in which WayForward's Shantae series (a metroidvania platformer) takes place, and it's this awesome combination of Arabian Nights and swashbuckling, with an occasional dose of steampunk...

Do you find the Elemental Evil Player's Companion difficult to navigate? Well, I did, so I used some PDF-editing software to add in more bookmarks. Now you can have a comprehensive linked table of contents listing every new spell, plus every class's spell list's updates. Effortlessly jump...
