    D&D General Survivor 5E - Tasha's Subclases - Druid Circle of the Stars outshines the rest!

    Sidebar: Why don't people like the Peace Domain? It has a non-concentration "bless" effect, an "AoE" heal at level 2, and a decent protective ability that grants a teleport effect.

    D&D General Past Edition books in D&D5E

    Also, maps. I love maps. 5E maps suck. I know I can always find solace - both literally and figuratively - in the warm embrace of Ad&d poster maps.

    D&D General Past Edition books in D&D5E

    A ton. Source material and modules are and always will be valid. I'm borrowing heavily from Raveloft source material for running CoS soon. I consistently go back to Greyhawk and FR source material as well. I dug out my old Greyhawk stuff when I was brainstorming on a Saltmarsh campaign and was...

    D&D General Survivor 5E - Tasha's Subclases - Druid Circle of the Stars outshines the rest!

    I can't stand something so heavily reliant on random effects. Same reason I don't like the wild sorcerer.

    D&D General brainstorming on theme/rules for hexcrawl campaign

    Wow this is awesome! Exactly what I was looking for! I had a conversation with a friend last night explaining this to him and took a little while for him to wrap his head around what I was asking. I'm not looking for rules to explain or account for the travel itself, I want ideas to explain why...

    D&D General brainstorming on theme/rules for hexcrawl campaign

    Some background: - We are a group of 6 players (myself included) of varying levels of experience - Still playing online/virtual only - Scheduling is very challenging and session length varies because of real-life, kids, odd work schedules, etc. So I'm looking for a campaign that supports the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Everything We Know About The Ravenloft Book

    "Valachan (hunting PCs for sport)" This caught my eye and I couldn't recall much about the original Domain. I did some research and discovered an awesome adventure and source material in Dungeon #50: Felkovic's Cat. I like the idea of "hunting PCs for sport". That could be a nice "exit" post...

    D&D 5E (2014) Help With fixing the BBEG, after he got destroyed in 3 rounds

    Yeah the multiple forms section is awesome. I've used it to great effect. Again, boss battles are about draining resources and it's a great way to do that while also giving your characters a "rest" (healing surge) in between. The Minions, Elites, and Solos section is also excellent for quick...

    D&D 5E (2014) Help With fixing the BBEG, after he got destroyed in 3 rounds

    Giffyglyph's stuff is far, far better than much of the 3rd party/homebrew stuff that I've seen.

    D&D 5E (2014) Everything We Know About The Ravenloft Book

    I know, I was being facetious. I hope it doesn't take up too much page count. The "large section" descriptor caught my eye. It really doesn't need more than a paragraph reminding DMs to "talk to your group about what kind of content they are comfortable with."

    AD&D 2E Let’s Look At The Old Ravenloft Boxed Set!

    Yup, it's amazing. Got it on my shelf right next to me. They don't make 'em like that anymore. The majority of the 2ed Ravenloft stuff is awesome (some oddballs mixed in, but that was par for the course in the 2ed heyday). I sold a good chunk of my collection but kept the Raveloft stuff. The...

    D&D 5E (2014) Help With fixing the BBEG, after he got destroyed in 3 rounds

    BOOM!! https://giffyglyph.com/monstermaker/ To expand a bit, 5E does solo boss battles really poorly. Legendary and lair actions help but even they aren't enough sometimes. You either need to tie up the PCs with minions to eat up their resources (and actions!) or cheat. Giffy Glyph's Monster...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e and the Cheesecake Factory: Explaining Good Enough

    Cheesecake Factory is "upscale" dining for people who don't know any better. A large menu is a HUGE red flag. I would argue that's not what D&D is. It's focused in scope and while it's been varied, the design of every edition has been fairly tight. D&D is better described as a restaurant that...
