    Moderator colours and colour blindness

    Many forms of colour blindness are difficult to explain to people. It's not "don't rely on a specific colour" much of the time. It's more "certain shades of colour combined with specific contrasts are indistinguishable from each other". I tend to undersee red for example (it's one of 2 types...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is the Wall of Faithless in 5e?

    Sure!, But the poster was saying the source was suspect because Kelemvor changed stuff but the source has Kelemvor using said wall. So far as I'm aware the WotC attitude seems to be "if you want canon and more detail, it was published previously and we've made it available so use it. We may...

    Well, at least I can tell that one is different than the text around it!

    D&D 5E (2014) Is the Wall of Faithless in 5e?

    Kelemvor was the god of judging the dead In 2E too. I can quote that from the same source as "all without a patron go into the wall", if you like.

    Time to Hang It Up? (Gaming Group Struggles Pt 2)

    I did that to a DM once. He has a glorious end planned for his last session of the campaign. 4 days earlier a family emergency hit and although the crisis was over early enough that I could have attended, my relief completely blew any thought that there was something going on out of my mind...

    D&D General Wizard's hat

    Colour me curious. If you don't know what it looked like and don't know what it did, how will you know when you found it?

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder 2e

    So a 9th level Wizard Fighter is as accurate with a trained weapon as a 5th level Fighter is with his mastered weapon group and is harder to hit (assuming equivalent worn armor). In other words, within 4 levels, a Wizard outstrips a Fighter in his specialty. Does a Fighter 4 levels higher...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is the Wall of Faithless in 5e?

    I would have no issue if it works as you assume.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder 2e

    You quoted @ByronD thus: and then claimed I pointed out your premise that adding level to AC reduces reliance on gear is a negated because when opponents add level to accuracy AND must be close to your own level because of how the gameplay is designed. In effect, a term is being added to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Paladin just committed murder - what should happen next?

    Yeah, not blackmail. But you can change the wording without changing the functional or intentional logic to make the case more clear: "I am taking your companion. I will kill you if you interfere." There's no offer. There's a threat.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder 2e

    And by baking the same level into accuracy, they put the dependency right back in. Most editions of D&D do effectively assume some improvement in AC but it only sort of tracks to level. The amount also varies dramatically by role. The beefy fighter in 1e s likely to go from AC4 at 1st level...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is the Wall of Faithless in 5e?

    No, all you need to do is not pick a patron. In other words, anyone who actually acts like a pantheist goes to the wall. No denunciation necessary, (unless that was changed though I got some confirmation earlier in the thread that it isn't) . That's the part I thought was mean/silly. "Ha...

    Editor bug

    Maybe it depends on placement? Here's an opening thought. Here is where I get fancy! Here's a final thought. ETA Everything looks clean here too. (using Edge)

    D&D 5E (2014) Paladin just committed murder - what should happen next?

    An offer involves something the other wants but does not have. A threat involves something the other has and wants to keep. The dragon threatened. "Give me your wallet and your watch" is not an offer it is a demand with an implied threat. Similarly, "Give me your companion" is not an offer...

    D&D 5E (2014) Paladin just committed murder - what should happen next?

    Yeah, but social groups being what they are, people tend to follow cf. Leeroy Jenkins. "Bob is charging the demons! What do the rest of you do? Sigh, I guess we'll go in! We shouldn't split the group. <next round> Run away! Run... argh! Tell me someone got away?! Yeah CaroI stayed back so...

    I agree. I also don't think the oath forbids surrender.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder 2e

    All of that sounds fine to me and is often what I look for in systems. I have no doubt it does what the designers set out to do: I'm just less convinced what they set out to do is something I want. What I've read of the execution (specifically that level plays a massive role in pretty much...

    Moderator colours and colour blindness

    G'day Folks, There 's a post edited by a moderator. I had to be told the text was a different colour -- to me both the original and mod's text appears black on the bright white background. https://www.enworld.org/threads/have-githzerai-always-been-jerks.667498/post-7815144 Is it possible...

    D&D 5E (2014) Paladin just committed murder - what should happen next?

    A paladin fit in that campaign just fine, thanks! She did not have "I must strive to protect the innocents at whatever risk to myself and my companions!" attitude. More like a "This is wrong. This must be stopped. We shall stop it, obviously. What will it take to accomplish that? How can we...
