    D&D 5E (2014) How do you feel about games without Feats and Multiclassing?

    I allow both but almost never see multiclassing. Maybe once or twice total throughout 5e. Only did it once for one of my characters. I rarely see feats. Maybe one per character about 20% of the time. I rarely take them myself, preferring to keep characters as simple as possible.

    D&D 5E (2014) Lycanthropy and Player Characters - homebrew progression rules

    In my game, you black out while transformed and have no control or knowledge of what your character did in lycanthrope form. On the 3rd transformation, you lose the character forever. They are now an NPC villain. That's if you're human. If you're anything else, you die upon the first...

    D&D 5E (2014) Lightning Bolt should be better.

    I have it bounce off walls for the full distance and shock anything in water nearby that line. Not to make the spell better, just because common sense.

    In 5e, I do 1/10th the normal amount of xp for monsters. Plus various goals awards in the 50-250xp range.

    D&D 5E (2014) Why are potions of healing so expensive?

    Totally depends on your campaign. In mine they're not available at all in small towns. Maybe available for 50-100gp in medium towns.

    D&D General On Grognardism...

    Looking purely at mechanics and not the repercussions of the playstyle they cause, 5e is definitely the best edition. Looking at the implications of what the rules are doing in pre-WOTC editions and not the wonkiness of the mechanics themselves, 1e and/or Basic (depending on your crunch...

    D&D General What published module have you run or played the most?

    I generally refuse to run the same module twice. The only exception I've made is for B10 Night's Dark Terror. Because it's the best.

    D&D 5E (2014) Cantrip nerf (house rule brainstorm)

    I did this and it's working great. Your spellcasting modifier = # cantrips per day. You can spend 30 days downtime to double this number, training at cost = 1gp/class level/day plus lifestyle expenses. Short rest = 8 hours sleep. Long rest = 5 downtime days.
