    D&D 5E (2014) Tiamat?

    Think of it like a greater demon who is only banished for a while.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiamat?

    Sorry, but I dare not. I am not DMing right now, and am currently playing Tyranny of Dragons, so I don't want to see too much of the statblock. edit: But I did do a followup in post #11

    D&D 5E (2014) Can you tell me a bit about the blue fire during the spellplague?

    She can theoretically be defeated, but she can not be killed.

    D&D 5E (2014) Cantrips

    It was for the cantrips I decided my level 4 cleric should take a feat instead of raising WIS to 18. I took Magic Initiate to get 2 more cantrips, plus an extra Cure Wounds.

    D&D 5E (2014) scroll prices

    That would be 10 healing potions. A healer's kit has 10 uses. So, how much is a feat worth. Do you want to spend your first feat on Healer so you don't have to buy healing potions? And remember, the "Healer" in the party might not be able to reach you right away during combat. Or he might be...

    Since it is out of print again, I guess you let up to soon! And they didn't reprint Chainmail!

    D&D 5E (2014) What previous edition books would you like to see re-done?

    Something that is a rehash for some of us is brand new to many players that might be 10-20-30-40 years younger than us (OMG! 55 years younger. :eek: ) Also, instead of a rehash, it might be done differently or even (gasp!) better than before. In any case, even a reprint can make something...

    D&D 5E (2014) Legendary, Lair, and BOSS Actions

    This seems like the most elegant solution. And the players can get it if they want it, so no foul.

    D&D 5E (2014) Initiative and Delay

    Your example of the SWAT team is not about changing initiative on the first or surprise round. Everyone is already in position (except the sniper in 2). Obviously the first round (or several rounds) have been spent assessing the situation and assigning tasks, then getting into position. All are...

    D&D 5E (2014) What previous edition books would you like to see re-done?

    Add to that the third part that was never published (nor promised): City Survival Guide I always hoped for that to round out the adventure areas.

    D&D 5E (2014) Initiative and Delay

    I think I will allow anyone to choose to go after an ally who is lower on the initiative count, not interrupt a tied initiative (that's too precise). Decisions will be made before finding out opponents initiative (that goes for the DM as well). This is only allowed first round, otherwise ready...

    D&D 5E (2014) The Case for a Magic Item Shop?

    This is fine for worlds where magic items are relatively plentiful. Where they are more rare, a side quest is in order, if the item is to be available at all.

    D&D 5E (2014) Orc or Half-Orc?

    (Was Worf a half-Klingon?) Anyway, since we have had half-orcs since 1E, many people expected them. Many people see some difference between orc and half-orc, some more subtle than others. In my upcoming campaign both (also goblins and hobgoblins) will be playable races, possibly including...

    D&D 5E (2014) DM purposely gimping my Warlock

    My bold. I must have missed the entire transcript of the game and dialog between the DM and OP, so I can't speak on whether the DM never EVER tried to work something out with the OP. As far as I can tell, the DM has not responded to this thread to explain/defend his position, nor tried to say...

    D&D 5E (2014) General Feats Discussion

    I am currently playing a variant human cleric of light. I took Healer at first level, that has proven to be a lifesaver for our party, repeatedly. We just made 4th level, and I have been having a hard time deciding between several feats and the stat boost. Warcaster: I use a mace and shield so...
