It's not class-specific, but it is action-specific. Any character would be able to move and then do a full attack action as if their BAB were 5 lower. Or, depending on which option I go with, any character would be able to attack as if he or she had the Vital Strike feat. Again, my motivation...

Greenfield That's an interesting approach, thanks. I may steal it. Did you do anything about the huge discrepancy between full attack and move/attack at higher BABs? I'm considering something like the following: "As a standard action, you can make a full attack as if your BAB was 5 points...

Amen! Plus, beans give me gas.

I'm running a 3.5e game, and one of the things I'd like to do is give martials more options to remain relevant in combat longer relative to their spellcasting counterparts. I already have snagged a few feats from Pathfinder or other sources (including homebrew) to beef up damage output or make...

Huh. Interesting discussion. I'm actually surprised this hasn't turned into a dumpster fire, so that's good! Overall there's been a lot to think about. At any rate, I have no plans to add it to my game because Corellon Larethian doesn't exist in my homebrew. If I had a player who felt...

Indeed, which was well-played by WotC. There also should be a lot more first-hand familiarity with high-level 5e by the end of the year. Is it too early for /popcorn? ;)

Cool! That looks like it deserves a thread all it's own :) I hope that people can tone down the debate about settings on this thread a little. It's starting to get personal, when it really shouldn't. As far as the two releases, the Waterdeep heist and Undermountain, I think they look pretty...

Nice! It definitely makes me think about bringing a laptop to my games :)

Interesting. So it sounds like part of the game is the setup, which helps create a more engaging play through. Cool, thanks! I'm still not sure it's for me, because it sounds like the DM has to really push a narrative along, which is something I rarely do and am not comfortable with, but it...

This thread has convinced me that I need to buy the AiME rules. Thanks for the awesome, evocative descriptions of gameplay. I love the concept of concretely different phases of an adventure such as Journey, Fellowship, etc.

I agree with this in principle, but I think it's a little more nuanced than that. In my experience a character can be memorable to the player, or it can be memorable to the group. The two aren't mutually exclusive, but neither are they directly related. For a character to memorable to me (the...

Speak for yourself! Although some people don't really appreciate it when I check out the closets... In a classic dungeon crawl, mapping is an important part of the experience to see how areas interconnect and where unexplored sections are. I think it would be extremely challenging to run a...

Roc. I know you said it's too big, but come on, Rock, Stone, Roc... it's too good.

This is a judgment-free question... Was this fun? Reading through that, my first thought was "Ugh, what a lot of prep work for what sounds like even more forced and challenging DM-shepherding through to something that nobody could have been invested in." I'm quite certain my opinion isn't the...

Frankly, I don't require or expect anything of my players for how they play their characters, other than they are not disruptive or offensive. Players have their own reasons for playing the characters they choose, and I'm totally ok with that, whether they want to express certain things through...

How about more ... setting sourcebooks? *pinkie finger*

Really sorry to hear that. I'll try not to start any internet fights in your absence. :(

Maybe it's just because I haven't really played PF1, but I find that statblock incredibly daunting to read. Just based on the statblock, I would need to know and track the following off the top of my head: * The different qualities of items and their effects (expert, etc) * The differences...

When my kids were three they had only been talking for a year and were fresh out of diapers, so I don't really have any advice for you. Good luck though.

At first I was shocked that they were able to take the owlbear without any deaths, but then I realized this was converted to 5e. Sounds cool, thanks for posting!
