    Legends & Lore: Clas Groups

    And IF the monk is a trickster, why should the thief king let him into his throne room? I agree. And 5e is just getting stranger as this keeps happening. There is no reason I can see that the outlook of a thief king should depend on a superclass that he can't see. I mean if Mearls is accurate...

    D&D 5E (2014) Trickster/Expert/Adventurer/Rogue

    Okay, but how would it be benefited if all these items were restricted only to the rogue. Only rogues can use hat of disguise. Only them. That is what is being said. To me, it seems more reasonable that anyone can use a hat of disguise. Anyone. The point Savage Wombat made was name something...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Q&A: 09/27/2013

    While I love this list, and the ideas presented in that link (thanks Kobold Stew) I think they have a major flaw assuming the other races are humanoid. Elves, dwarves, kobolds, whatever; aren't cheetahs or elephants or hippos. They aren't dumb bestial animals. They are people with scales, pointy...

    Pathfinder 1E Let's make a pathfinder group,skype/maptools, european friendly time

    I'm the same as StreamOfTheSky. I'm interested and also EST. And 20:00 CET (assuming we've both done that conversion correctly) sounds like an excellent starting time. At the moment I'm not doing anything with regularity that can get in the way, the time and system are ideal so I'm very...

    Pathfinder 1E How many GMs use Divine Channeling to revive unconscious opponents?

    In combat, if the enemy is in range and gets healed by positive energy.. then they get healed by positive energy. After combat, downtime when everyone is milling around... then I assume the PCs have either curbstomped the enemy dead, or are in some way making sure to heal only the friends (keep...

    Pathfinder 1E Does pathfinder strike anyone as too gamey?

    Um.. "Isn't." As in "Is Not," as in "Not Everyone." Group 1: People satisfied with solution. Group 2: Dis-satisfied people (with solution). Group 2 =/= Group 1. And let's say group 3: Group 1 + Group 2 That is what he said. How large or small group 2 is not part of the sentence. Neither of...

    Pathfinder 1E Does pathfinder strike anyone as too gamey?

    Agreed. Like I said last time it seems like he is using the first level of probably the worst offender for "gamey" and saying PF = 4e levels of gamey, which simply doesn't seem to be true when you compare literally anything other than the first level alchemist. But, sure OP I'll agree: the...

    Pathfinder 1E Does pathfinder strike anyone as too gamey?

    Personally @Rob1207 I think your problem is that you played an alchemist at .. first? level or near it. When the alchemist can only do self healing and what not but before it kicks in and he can do more things and stuff for the rest of the party. So, Alchemist was probably the worst class in...

    D&D 5E (2014) New D&D Next Playtest package is up (19/9/2013) [merged threads]

    This seems like where having a level 0 would be immensely helpful. Level 0 of a class gets certain benefits. Then takes levels 1-20 of the class. Level 0 of another class gets others. Then takes levels 1-20 of the other class. Then at level 1, or 6, or any level, when the guy from the first...

    D&D 5E (2014) Wandering Monsters: Basic Beasties

    While I agree they're pretty flavourless, giving little more than the base description of the monster, I don't know what else we really expected from it. The description is fine, nothing objectionable. What more would we expect from a Bear, or Lizard, or actual (sea) Shark description? These are...

    Well, it is more that someone told him about it and he suddenly caught up. No surprise really. Sad, but not surprising. I found myself answering "Yes?" because it was my guess for who you were talking to.. which was not me. Thus "yes?" as I was not sure but took a guess. As far as why I would...

    D&D 5E (2014) New D&D Next Playtest package is up (19/9/2013) [merged threads]

    Yes? When one version/game has something you want and another one doesn't then, all other things being equal, you are going to pick the one that has what you want. Entitlement is another reason why someone may pick things. Is it not one of yours Mistwell? That is cool but I think everyone is...

    D&D 5E (2014) Monster Builder's Guide

    a. No. (as long as it is very well made) b. I would buy that one in place of a monster manual. (as long as it is very well made)

    Calling out, "systems mastery"

    So, scrolls. The wizard, any wizard, can use scrolls and cast higher level spells as long as they have the requiring intelligence. Does that qualify them to trigger this ascending system? If not, why not? I am truly confused. And even though plenty of other have proved (perhaps unsuccessfully)...

    Calling out, "systems mastery"

    I'm still confused. Where do the extra slots come from? I get from the vague wording in the UA that you are arguing that as soon as you have a spell of a certain slot (able to cast 2 2nd level spells, means 3rd level slot and thus up to 9th) that you know all. But I don't understand where you...

    Notification Bug?

    lol, nice try. But no, I only got 1 notification from that. Is this x3/x4 thing happening for everyone or just me??

    Notification Bug?

    Four times this guy edited it and so I got notices? ...Alright. It was then 3 and then 1. I guess it is possible, you would know better than me. Maybe it is only the 5 minute edit version that causes the notification.

    Why are undead inherently evil?

    Why are devils evil even though angels are good? Because both of those archetypes are not meant to be a good guy. Becoming a lich is like willfully becoming a vampire. You want to lose your soul and everything that makes you you, by cutting out your soul and stuffing into a box. A good person...

    Why are undead inherently evil?

    I'm going to go off on a bit of a tangent here - that's like saying murder is only evil until you run out of family members for the first person you kill. If you kill a hobo in cold blood = not murder = not evil. Um.. no. We still define it as evil/murder regardless if there is anyone left to...

    Notification Bug?

    I don't think it is. At least it wouldn't make sense given last night's quote garnering me "4" replies from a single - and as far as I can tell - unedited post.
