    Product page for Volo's Guide to Monsters updated

    While I understand where you are coming from, "bean counters" are important to keep D&D profitable and around for the long haul. Most of us want D&D to be successful and that takes "bean counters". A well run company takes a balance between the creative side and the "$" side, so that it can...

    Product page for Volo's Guide to Monsters updated

    Just because WoTC isn't putting out the product(s) you want doesn't mean that they are being mismanaged. The info that we have seems to say the opposite, that WoTC is being managed very well. A well run company can't be everything to everyone and blaming the "bean counters" without knowledge...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is the Monk of the Long Death overpowered?

    Another overpowered class with rolled scores is Bladesinger. I saw a mage/bladsinger with 18 int, 18 dex, and 16 of con at 1st level.

    D&D 5E (2014) Is the Monk of the Long Death overpowered?

    I would also add Paladin to that list as well (Str, Con and Cha).

    D&D 5E (2014) Volo's Guide to Monsters - Which monsters do you want to see?

    I want more devils and demons, more fey, and more undead. I really want more human variants as well (I would love to run an all human campaign, so more variations in the guards, soldiers, rogues, hunters, wizards, etc would be great). ETA: I want to see "Wizards" and "Clerics" at multiple...

    D&D 5E (2014) SCAG -- Worth it?

    I also think it depends on what you are paying for it. I don't think that it is worth $40 but I have seen it in the mid $20's previously on Amazon and at that price it is probably worth it (Currently it is in the low $30's on Amazon).

    D&D 5E (2014) Help! My Players Are Leveling Too Quickly

    You can have breaks between chapter 1 and chapter 2 and again between chapter 2 and chapter 3 (well off the top of my head those breaks could happen). The problem with slowing down progression is that the PC's won't be of adequate level to survive the adventure, unless more is added to the...

    Well, I guess it is time to back my 3rd Kickstarter. Thanks for the advice.

    D&D 5E (2014) Little rules changes that still trip you up

    I haven't played since 2nd edition, so that probably explains my issue with it.

    D&D 5E (2014) [Merged] "We're back!" Threads

    I am very happy that the site is back up. I have to admit that I am a little worried about my addiction to this site and how many times a day I was checking to see if it was back up or not. :blush:

    D&D 5E (2014) Dungeons on Demand Volume 4 Kickstarter

    https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dancoleman/dungeons-on-demand-volume-4-5e-dnd-dungeon-adventu?ref=profile_created I was wondering if anyone joined in on the previous Kickstarters (or bought it off drivethru) for volume 1, 2 and/or 3? What were you thoughts? What level of quality are the...

    D&D 5E (2014) low-magic 5E: rules for item wear?

    I once played in a group that gave armor "HP", basically you took the armor class and times it by 20. For example Studded Leather gives you an AC of +2, it would have 40HP, and everytime a player took damage from an attack roll you would subtract the damage from it. A character would need to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Berserker - How does it really compare to Totem Warrior?

    That is the difference between disadvantage and normal. I just went back and added the columns for advantage and advantage averaged 14 over 1000 rolls. So for the 1000 rolls average for each advantage: 14 Noraml: 10 Disadvantage: 7

    D&D 5E (2014) Berserker - How does it really compare to Totem Warrior?

    While I would probably agree that it isn't crippling, the average difference over 1000 runs is 3 (well according to the quick excel sheet I set up), 10 vs 7. While a difference of 3 isn't crippling, it is significant and can drastically change the outcome.

    D&D 5E (2014) How often do you tie in backgrounds?

    Shouldn't the background that the player writes up include their background from the PH (or customer one)? In my group we do frequently use backgrounds for more than just mechanical purposes. In our group it flows both ways, sometimes the DM initiates the use and sometimes the players do.

    D&D 5E (2014) 30 Minutes before a game session, what prep rituals help you DM/play your best games?

    This is easy 1. Put Kids to bed 2. Drink beer and get snacks ready 3. Come up with put-downs/jokes for my players such as "Yo mama so smelly that even trolls stay away" 4. Listen to my wife make fun of me for playing D&D.
