    D&D 5E (2014) Should All Subclasses Be Gained at 1st Level?

    I would like them all at level 3. I would also like all subclasses to give features at the same levels, so that you can apply a subclass to any class.

    D&D General I hate pdfs, and I'm happy that WOTC primarily publishes Books

    I like books the first time I read them. Then they sit on my shelves, never to be touched again. Which kinda makes me hate them in the end. I only use an actual book at the table when it’s the only book we use to play. Like, we played a BECM(I) campaign, and all I needed was my Rules...

    D&D 5E (2014) Adventuring Day XP - asking for an opinion

    @Lyxen noted! That table is only needed to calculate the encounter difficulty, right? It does not change the amount of XP earned by the PCs?

    D&D 5E (2014) Adventuring Day XP - asking for an opinion

    I was (finally) reading a bit on adventuring day and XP in the DMG, and I decided to prepare a few encounters for my party Do you think this would be too challenging? PS: I ignored the multiplier based on the number of monsters for each encounters, since it gives me a big headache ... Party...

    Wheel of Time Discussion - Spoilers(with book spoilers)

    I enjoyed the first three episodes. Somehow the costumes look a bit cosplay-like to me, but it is a nice show. I read the first four books some ten years ago, so maybe I’m misremembering, but isn’t the Dragon Reborn supposed to be a man? I get the sense that Moraine was imply that Nynaeve could...

    D&D 5E (2014) Rune Knights: how do you begin a fight?

    Currently playing a level 15 half-orc rune knight (Ganelon), my main issue is how to use my Reaction more than my Bonus Action! I just have so many options, and on top of that I took Sentinel, so every round is a constant "how do I spend my reaction in the best way?" Regarding Bonus Actions, my...

    D&D 5E (2014) Max HP?

    ONLY 7 rounds? 7 rounds is a lot… it’s at least one hour of play at the table, if not more, if you have legendary actions and minions. I actually wish fights were shorter

    D&D 5E (2014) Dnd 5e, but everything is a “spell”

    it does look like a lot of work... maybe as someone suggested, I should look at a system that already does that, instead of completely reworing 5e @Rabbitbait suggested Numenera, I actually own the first edition and a few scenarios. Maybe I'll give it a shot

    D&D 5E (2014) Grumbling about New (and Announced) Releases

    I don't mind the CR book, I just hope it sets a precedent: publish a Setting book, then publish a Campaign or Adventure Anthology for that Setting. I wished they'd done the same with Eberron and Ravnica. It kinda also happened for Ravenloft, only they did the Adventure first, and the Setting...

    D&D 5E (2014) Astral Wars: A New Hope

    All these ideas are making me realize that Star Wars was actually pretty limited. The Empire and the Sith as this ONE BIG ENEMY, when there could have been so much to explore and fight against.

    D&D 5E (2014) FeeFiFoFum *splat* goes the giants

    Regarding the 6/8 encounters a day, there's one thing I never understood when someone brings that up. Of those encounters, one must be the FIRST, right? So, every first encounter ever at every DnD table needs to be a cake-walk? Because, you're at full power, and you could hypothetically unleash...

    D&D 5E (2014) Astral Wars: A New Hope

    @Steampunkette all great ideas! I'm thinking that my tyrant dragon empire will indeed be just one of the many threats to be found in the Astral. Still not sure about the Spelljammer. I really don't like the idea of NEEDING a mage in order to fly a ship. So I'd prefer a fantasy ship that works...

    D&D 5E (2014) Astral Wars: A New Hope

    The way I'm envisioning this now would be that the Astral Sea is Space, and the only way to reach it is through some Astral Gates that connect the Astral Lanes, a bit like someone suggested above. So indeed I would have "blockades". These Astral Gates would still be relatively near to each...

    D&D 5E (2014) Astral Wars: A New Hope

    thanks to everyone for the reactions so far, all good input, I'm going to address a few things that jolted my imagination. @AtomicPope thanks for the great suggestions! I heard a lot of good stuff about the 4E book about the Astral Plane, but never got a chance to read it. I'll try to remedy in...

    D&D 5E (2014) Astral Wars: A New Hope

    Did the title give it away? I'm planning a new campaign, and I'd like to do a mix of Planescape and Spelljammer (super original, I know). But I would also like to have the Multiverse of DnD work a bit like a "galactic empire". Basically, planar travel would be something that the average Joe...

    D&D 5E (2014) Revised core book wishlist

    Subclass features at fixed levels across all classes, to allow (some) subclasses to be useful for multiple classes. Like they tried for Stryxhaven.

    D&D 5E (2014) Zooming In On Monsters of the Multiverse [UPDATED!]

    The more Monsters books, the less useful I find to have them in "book" format. Let's say I need a Fiend of CR 10 for my next adventure, I'm not going to go through all my monsters book to look for it. Digital database is the way to go for this.
