    D&D 5E (2014) Great Weapon Mastery - once more into the breach! (with math)

    I been saying all along I have GMW etc in all my games pole arm with GWM etc and it has broken nothing. All my groups have slightly higher stats because we do 4d6 drop the lowest and they do three sets and pick one. I also found that when you start hitting higher AC it becomes even less...

    Creating magic items in 5e

    I been making the items usually in theme with the characters; it is my favorite part of being a DM. I do add +x in damage on magical weapons sometimes or it may be a roll. I have removed all too hit bonuses from magic items and some times I put side effects on items. I have one when he touches...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is the Rogue the only reason TWFing needs a Bonus Action?

    For two weapon i house rule that you can make 1 attack once per turn with the offhand. Just like the ranger colossal Slayer and it has made twf a non trap option now Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

    Well my ek that did that but is a dragonborn they just got to 18 and he had no qualms giving up an attack at 20 and i have one that will have the extra attack.

    D&D 5E (2014) Deadly D&D5E

    Easiest way to make things deadly Up the monsters ac just a touch if they are an 18 move it to 19 the encounter just got harder adding HP helps but I find the a small AC bump changes the encounters by a big margin making them deadlier. Up the mobs you throw at them instead of just a big boss...

    D&D 5E (2014) Hasbro's Goldner - D&D up 50%

    D&D 5E (2014) Eldritch Knight

    From running my games the EK was probably the 2nd best tank in the group the Totem Barbarian with rage, shield and good stats is hard to beat because they soak up so much damage. But with Shield and Absorb Elements (from EE) and at higher levels blur or mirror image I find they make better tank...

    D&D 5E (2014) Removing the bonus action - analysis

    In 5e that becomes a feat tax and that makes DW worthless in non feat games you would bacailly make it worthless and why -6 heck GWF is only -5 way to big of a penalty it is already balanced you need twf from fighter or ranger to add the damage modifer to the off hand attack

    D&D 5E (2014) MPMB's D&D 5e Character Tools

    Found a bug on the revised classes for Kensei it says simple or martial weapons but when you put kensei next to a simple weapon like a spear, dagger , club etc it does not flag magical but if I do a martial weapon or a ranged weapon it works

    D&D 5E (2014) Is it fair to cast save-or-suck spells on the players?

    Me personally I will use save or suck spells it is life and makes the game challenging and have consequences. I also require every player to have a backup character (different from their current player) for when these type of situations arrive and I work them into the story line in that session...
