the math base is the same for 24 years... take d20 add the mod from a stat (take stat subtract ten and divide by 2) then add any proficiency you have (in 3e it was different skill ranks or base attack, in 4e it was 1/2 level or 1/2 level +2, in 5e it's the prof bonus) then maybe a magical...

someone was working on (I don't know if they ever fully did it) a PHB1 from 4e PDF that was the orginal with hyperlink openable boxes that had all the errata at a click

I don't think anyone said or even implied an obligation... they just said that they wanted them too

like I keep saying we need more non magic classes so we can cover play style and concepts... we have artificer, bard, sorcerer, warlock and wizard as JUST arcane casters along with arcane trickster and eldritch knight.... we have cleric druid paliden ranger all as the divine ones... we then have...

That is how I feel all the time. Like in 4e I made a character that's short hand elevator pitch was "Stargate's Lt Coln Shepard meets B5's capt Sheridan by way of cyclops/duke" the longer version was: I was a member of a military and I was rising through the ranks... until I disobey orders to...

we used 1 copy of the PHB for my group for a few months, then 1 person bought a used copy... it was teh same. When we met 2 new players a few months later we talked about broad swords and they asked what book those were in... we said the players, they opened theres and lo and behold, no broad...

why... why are you trying to trigger my midlife crisis?? :);) There was in 97 a guy who used to have a 2e homebrew 'updated' monk that I got to play. right around 2000ish right before our first trial run at 3e I had a friend who was using the splat book add ons like spells and power in a 1e...

that doesn't seem too much

I have heard stories of 1e/2e games taking whole ideas and classes. I have in some cases seen (and even done) some cross over house rules, and I see alot of "updating of old adventures" but not much direct mix and match

I don't know what the errata looks like for the 2014 book... but if they include all of the 1d&D changes that is a lot more then errata

again this (both kobold and 1d&D) so far looks like a new edition the way 1e and 2e did and the way 3e and 3.5 did

yup... but some people here insisit it isn't 3.5 or 1e/2e its just a new splat book... nor did I say they did... I said what I wanted

I don;t know what this means... it like it's brother statement "you don't have facts that would hold up in science" strike me as weird... we are all on a message board. We are all talking lossly with onl;y our own experiences. How do you propose we talk on a message board (one that I have over...

that isn't the argument at all.... you are misrepresenting what I said Part A of mechanical problem) Casters can sitdown and make a build that is pretty darn close to fighter for both damage and AC and about 2/3 to 3/4 (depending wizard lower others higher). THIS IS ON A BUILD LEVEL... so...

the funny part is both (to me) feels like half messures. we need an overhaul not a tinker... and both are changing enough to be too diffrent but not enough to be remade... it's 3.5 not 4e

I would argue that makeing new subclasses and feats is the easy part once you have the class frame work

a 20th level fighter has 42 more hp then the wizard with the same con, and 21 more then the bard, warlock, cleric ect they have 2 extra ASI/feats and can action surge 2/short rest second wind 1/ short rest and reroll 3 saves per day.

that was the time for the most optimization for switching weapons... silver shortsword was better then a non sivler great sword if they are immune to non silver... but once you get a magic great sword that changed a bit... in 3.5 most DR was over come by magic in 3.0 there was times silver or...

everyone loves when teh longsword and shield paladin finds a great axe and says "but I have a sword and board character"

Fighter AC 18 181hp 4 attacks +11 1d8+7 wizard AC 17 120hp 1 attack +11 1d8+3d8+5+int mod (lets say that is 3) wizard still has they'r swiss army win buttons of spells
