Really how is any of the posted stuff any less confusing for new players or better than a bonus action ? I am just not seeing it and note I have no edition war history to fall back on; prior to 5e 99% of my D&D played was original D&D and 1e and that was 20+ years ago.

Even with advantage on every attack it has not caused me any issues; like I said some people may have issues with it and they have options if they think it is over powered. The options are Pretty simple disallow feats or certain feats or modify the numbers. I know some people have modified the...

I have had the feats and the two combo feats in my games no issues at all but none of the magic items I give out have any +to hit and I amke sure to properly encounter build for the players I have.Note I do not run D&D campaigins everything is custom.

Play the monsters smarter as while not every monster in the book is going to focus on the melee type. Also the easiest thing I seen to change the diffculuty of any monster is raise the AC even just a little bit can change the encounter dynamics and you nailed it on the head more monsters means...

Just do TWF like colossus slayer were you can only do one off hand attack per turn that fixes the issue not trickey at all way over complicated by people then you are using already established rules nothing new to learn.

The issue is outside this forum I have seen very little of people complaing about -5 +10 feats. I think it is a minority group that hates this feat in fact the surveys say people are askign for more feats. I do not think it is as big an issue as people are making it out to be in most peoples world.

I have no problems with the bonus actions yes it takes new players a while to grasp it some times but so would most anything. People call it cluncky and I read why I just do not agree with that stance. I have no problems with the bonus action it self sometimes I wonder why they made some things...

I have a player doing a Dragon Born EK Knight two handed bo GWF he took protection no GWM he took two level of wizard for Portent and the lucky feat and of course Imdomtiable when he got high enough. You will have some fun with the character

Multi classing in this edition is not the power game of 3.5 in fact what I seen while it has a few combos that most the stuff people complain about being easy or broken are specific feats and certain feat combos put together from what i have seen

I do this in some campaigns and when I have had great success

I find EK that focus on shield and absorb elements to be very tankie it changes a lot of the dynamics; I love the Battle Master for DPS and versatility, but EK gives you the survival edge on par with the other classes and a DPS boost 3&4 and 7-10 levels (SCAG Cantrips) I think the issue is that...

Oh the flash backs to my youth Marvel Heros work out better for TSR hobbies than their SciFi game Star Frontiers (1982 vs 1984) they use the same base system the Die 10 Model note they made some improvements in the system in Heroes. I still have copies of my Star Frontiers I never bought the...

I would say Battle Master is while designed on the fighter side the EK was better than I expected Monk I think the Way of the fist and Long Death and shadow is solid their is nothign to realy liek about the elemntal monk

I always try to build encounters that will challenge them and may kill them at least a few some they will breeze through it is about burning resources. I am not actively trying to kill them but at the same time sometimes it works out that way. Had a few guys die most the time it is gets sketchy...

I do not use maps of minatures so not an issue with me but terrian matters heavy wodded forest you lose sight of targets, I counter wiht my own NPC snipers from 600 yards away with sharpshooter opps that hurts, ambushes some times I drop spell caster

My only thing with gfb & booming blade is we only get fire or thunder so I have to build options for different damage types Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

EK route for you then :cool:

They can work with reach weapons if you take the spell sniper feat to double their range from 5' to 10' The best dpr whip builds I could create for fun were around EK and warcaster leveraging gfb and booming and you need the spell sniper feat for the range

I am sticking with my rulings how can they make one not an aoe in EB spam and since magic missle can go 120 ft in several directions I call shenanigans and am not changing my ruling; the same for scorching ray you have to roll to attack for each ray. Sorry I am not buying this at all. You can...

Could go EK to 7 war magic use Greenflame Blade or Booming blade followed by another melee attack multiclass into paldian for converting spell slots into smite instead of just shield and abosrb elements or you can go dex based and goto 7-8 EK mixed with Wizard blade singer.
