    D&D 5E (2014) Shillelagh question

    For more what? I don't think shillelagh does 1d10 damage if cast on a staff and used with two hands. One handed, clubs normally do 1d4 and staves do 1d6, but shillelagh just changes them all to 1d8 + casting stat.

    D&D 5E (2014) Shillelagh question

    I know you use WIS to attack, and it does 1d8 damage. Is there anything that can add to that damage? STR mod? Additional spells?

    I need help optimizing my Druid.

    Well that makes sense. LOL I'm most concerned with point #1: does a Druid get the saving throw proficiencies of its animal form when wild shaped?

    I need help optimizing my Druid.

    A few questions, as I've never played a Druid before: 1) when wild shaped, a Druid takes the proficiencies of the animal form? That's really weird. Do they lose INT/WIS? 2) why does a human have an extra spell over the gnome? 3) I'm open to most any race.

    I need help optimizing my Druid.

    I'm starting a Moon Druid soon. I can't decide if I should go with a variant human or with a forest gnome. This is a deadly campaign. Our first session resulted in a TPK. We are starting at level 1 using 27 point buy. Human gives me Resilient (CON) off the bat, a higher starting WIS, and an...

    D&D 5E (2014) Trying to build a pole arm fighter

    Pretty damn good! I mean, you'd do more damage with a greatsword or greataxe, but not much more. You need to be using a mat to get the most out of this character. The beauty of this character is the increased range. It allows you to get in front and prevent enemies from reaching your...

    Would a Paladin/Druid work?

    Page 163 of the PHB. Read the first sentence under "Prerequisites"

    Would a Paladin/Druid work?

    No sir, you need 13's in the scores to leave the class too.

    Would a Paladin/Druid work?

    Well, we play point buy. So, you'll need 13 in STR, WIS, and CHA to make the multiclass happen. You're going to max out WIS anyway, but you want a good CON too. INT/DEX can be dumped to 8.

    Would a Paladin/Druid work?

    I'm thinking Paladin 2, then all Druid levels. When you reach level 4, you'll have a smiting bear. And the Druid would give you so many smites. Question 1: if I go to Paladin level 5 (or 6), does the extra attack translate to animal forms? Question 2: what race is optimal? Variant human...

    D&D 5E (2014) What's a Warlord? Never heard of this class before.

    I can onlY assume it was in a previous edition. Considering I jumped from 2e to 5e, I must have missed it. What is this class trying to do? Was it too powerful for 5e? Is that why it keeps being imitated by other classes, but hasn't been duplicated yet?

    D&D 5E (2014) Breaking down the Fighter archetypes.

    I don't have my SCAG with me, but I thought having multiple Purple Dragon Knights working together, inspiring each other would be cool.

    D&D 5E (2014) DM's: what do you do with players who miss time?

    If another player is controlling the character of somebody who didn't show up, how do you handle combat without the character sheet? How do you handle it if that player dies?

    D&D 5E (2014) Has anybody ever made the story of Baldur's Gate (cRPG) into a campaign?

    Did you just assign a player to be The bhaalspawn? I like the idea of running it just like the first video game. The bhaalspawn stuff is minor for most of the game, but it keeps the player (or players, if the Bhaalspawn discusses it with the others) guessing. Giving out a couple of free level...

    D&D 5E (2014) Optimizing Favored Soul Sorcerer

    Favored Soul is awesome, but you guys got it wrong. Don't combo it with Paladin or Fighter, you already get the extra attack from favored soul. Doubling up on that ability is a waste. If you want to make a Gish and you're looking at 5-6 pally or Fighter levels already, make it a storm...

    D&D 5E (2014) Powergaming a Barbarian 5

    Never considered the rapier/barb combo. Does that work with rage? I like improved crit, that's cool with the ho barb. Maybe just 3 or 4 levels of champion, because multiple attacks don't stack (I'm talking about the extra attack at level 5 barbs and ftrs get). I like continuing as ftr or barb...

    D&D 5E (2014) DM's: what do you do with players who want to switch characters?

    Player A no longer wants to be a dwarf paladin, now he wants to be a human ranger (or whatever). Do you allow him to just switch with no XP penalty? Do you start him with less XP? What if that dwarf paladin had magic items? Does the human ranger get them?
