    D&D 5E (2024) Dissonant Whispers vs Command in high level play on a melee character.

    Both are a Wisdom save. And at that level, both are mostly used to get the target to move away from you. Whispers does some damage, but at that level it's not a lot of damage. Command can also do halt, drop, approach. and grovel. But, at least based on my limited experience, Command is most...

    D&D General D&D Releases New Japanese Campaign 'Oni’s Right Hand'

    And I think that's after-the-fact copium. Half-elves have been in the game since 1e, and half-orcs I think the same? One or both are prominent named figures in the history of not one, but almost every single setting WOTC ever put out. At various times they ranged from major to minor differences...

    D&D General D&D Releases New Japanese Campaign 'Oni’s Right Hand'

    What you just described never made it into the books. When you say it's explicitly allowed, I believe you're referencing something they had in a UA, which got scraped for the 2024 books. As far as I am aware, it's not explicit nor implied. They don't mention the topic at all.

    D&D General 70% Of Games End At Lvl 7?

    But these days it's almost just casting any 8th level spell. Doing anything else with it is highly risky.

    D&D General 70% Of Games End At Lvl 7?

    I have never had a campaign last beyond 13th level. For 5e, my highest level PC is 12th level though that is going strong and will reach higher levels I think. But we also take much longer to level than most, it seems. We have lots of sessions of just RP. We play a single campaign for years. A...

    D&D General Cthulhu by Torchlight Brings Mythos To D&D

    Cthulhu by Torchlight was just announced on Treantmonklvl20's Patreon channel, because he helped work on it (mostly on subclasses, some on monsters) with Mike Mearls, who is the lead designer on this book. This book, which is now newly available on DnDBeyond, combines Call of Cthulhu and 5th...

    D&D's October Product Revealed to Be Stranger Things Tie-In

    My daughter is a Stranger Things fanatic. We've been to a Finn Wolfhard concert together, where we also met McKenna Grace, and had tickets to a Maya Hawk concert, and met Grace Van Dien who played Crissy. This might be the very thing to convince her to play D&D (the first crossover RPG didn't do...

Game stores are a primary gateway for new players, primary gateway for new DMs, and their success in the long term helps all game consumers. So yes, it's in WOTCs best interest and the best interests of gamers in general to...

    Eberron: Forge of the Artificer Delayed Until December

    Yes, he's saying some people don't care about that big picture reason, don't care that game stores are a gateway to new players and critical to the health of the industry, and just want their digital access because that's all they care about.

    Eberron: Forge of the Artificer Delayed Until December

    You don't screw every game store in the nation because gamers who game online want their stuff earlier. They're absolutely right to delay both releases.

    D&D General Weapon Mastery - Yea or Nay?

    That's totally fair. Having yet to play 2024 in-person, and playing it only on Foundry and Talespire so far, surely biases my view on some things.

    Wizards of the Coast Reveals Revised Eberron Species Details

    Khoravar rogue can get true strike as a species trait, allowing them to select a different background feat like Lucky. Nice! Yes I know there was already a High Elf option for this, but a different choice is good. And, well, yeah it's a half-elf. About time.

    D&D 5E (2014) Sorcerer vs. Wizard: Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better?

    Yes it's a non-magical spellcaster class. Spellcaster meaning a class operating essentially off a slot system which increases with levels, and the slots are used to use a power which controls something, or damages something, or heals something, etc... This just looks like a melee based non-magic...
