They "underkilled" it really. changes were, more or less minute. I bought the new PHB because old was falling apart from usage. If I can pencil-in or write a few post it stickers in old PHB with new material, then it's not a really a big change except in very few things. they listened to the...

I think that 3rd party publishers, especially the smaller one will use AI art first. They run on really low budget and having AI means that if you are doing house rules or some homebrew for DMs guild, you can do it all yourself if you are tech savvy for editing and clearing AI nonsense in...

Since we still do not have any decent options of special materials for weapons/armors or better crafting method for bonuses(masterwork/elvencraft/dwarvencraft), I see +1/+2/+3 weapons and armors as just better crafting quality and nothing really special about them. flaming sword is a magic...

no, nothing should scale by that. however, you are able to visit more dangerous areas because of your higher level. the idea behind bounded accuracy(in theory at least) is that your scaling is slower so even low level problems "might" affect you later on. if environment DC is 15, it will be a...

the 11+ levels are not the problem, some spells of level 5+ are the problem, those spells need to be reign in, especially control and immunity spells. damage spells are OK, summon spells are OK(unless summons themselves do not have problematic spells), resurrection spells are OK,

one solution for moving between covers or moving towards target in the open: You can move a number of feet in the open equal to your "passive Stealth" or "take 10" score. that is, if you have +5 to stealth, you can move 15ft in the open. When you move in the open, you take disadvantage on your...

classes are pre-picked feat trees that players have no choice in.

1. increase DC to 10+prof+ability. 2. merge abilities STR and CON to need Fort save, Dex is Ref save, int, wis and cha is Will save 3. Fort: STR+CON mod Ref: DEX+INT mod WILL: WIS+CHA mod every class is proficient with one save, feat gives +1 ASI and proficiency in another.

it is nightmare to balance, all features in the game must be coded and balanced around being feats and/or half-feats. I.E: paladins aura. take a feat at 6th level. +1 to all saves to all within 20ft take it again at 12th level: +2 to all saves to all within 30ft take it again at 18th level: +3...

only one class and about 300 feats, level and other feats may apply as prerequirement.

OFC its debatable how much is rolling popular, no official organization uses them, personally, from I do not know how many campaigns I player from 2000, we used rolled stats in 3. objectively, they are bad for the game because they bring imbalance between PCs only if you really force them...

option 3 is put there for a reason as option 3. you have 2 opportunities to ignore it.

subtraction every single roll that needs to be done on the fly is bad. sitting in your room and making 6 rolls for your character is not bad.

4d6D1 or 5d3D1-8 is more or less the same, both is 1st grade elementary math. edit: also, that is why rolling stats need to be 3rd optional rule. 1st: array 2nd: point buy 3rd: rolled stats everyone will get +3,+3,+2,+1,+1,+0 for their character creation.

yes, there is, 4d3-8 for average 5d3D1-8 or 6d3D2-8 for adventurers, depending on your preferred power level how exactly, except in the explanation; we have been doing it that way for 50 years?

it's not really complicated, but it's needlessly complicated. instead of just having a single digit number, you 1st need to have other number that you then reduce by 10 and then divide by 2(round down) so you can get the single digit number that you will use in 99% of the time in the game. one...

ability score value is for 3d6 not d20 or we would roll d20, but when they made the game, they realized that bell curve is better for ability distribution and all of this is also described by ability modifiers. no need to have two sets of stats for the same thing. ability scores currently...

because explaining to new players why 17 is +3 and why 8 is -1 is chore to do for gazzilionth time and that step should be avoided in this game. that is 2 minutes that can be spent on improving backgrounds. if we remove "grognardism" from the equation, if we axed ability scores today, no one...

why do we need even that? just use point buy -1: -1pt +0 : 0pts +1: 1pt +2: 2pts +3: 4pts +4 7pts or array: +3,+3,+2,+1,+1,+0 or if we really need rolls, it can be: 5d3D1-8 or 6d3D2-8 that gives range of -4 to +4. we have so desperate attempt to make them relevant with requirements of...

playtest exclusively by munckins/powergamers, game needs to be broken, before it can be fixed. or just one class with endless combination of features with 10-20 suggested kits of preselected feats that will describe "legacy" classes for people that do not want or need system mastery.
