    D&D 5E (2024) Can Wild Magic be a Wizard 'thing' in D&D 5?

    It doesn't work thematically IMO. Wizards study arcane formulas, which doesn't lend itself to chaos. Your write the arcane pattern and say the words, and the thing happens. Do it again, repeat the results. It would make more sense for a Cleric or Warlock tied to an entity of chaos. That...

    And while we're on the subject. To make your own rubies you need 99% Aluminum Oxide (sold as rock polish, not the sand blasting stuff) 1% Chromium Oxide. More makes it deeper red, less is more clear. Really just a tiny amount, think drop of food dye in water. Alternatively go 1% Titanium...

    I've been toying with 3d printing rubies. I got a arc hot enough to melt the aluminum oxide, but haven't managed to control it very well. So it's not very well shaped. Probably need to do some magnetic stuff to aim it. Seems like you're ahead of me. So can you put a UV led in the middle so...

    D&D 5E (2024) Best Classes 1-20 5.5 vs 5.0

    It's the barbarian I'm playing at the moment. But even without Gnome, Mage Slayer really helps cover a main weakness of barbarian (or fighter), with +1 Str.

    D&D 5E (2024) Best Classes 1-20 5.5 vs 5.0

    Paladin. High durability, high damage, lots of support, and some control and utility. I know you said subclass was out, but Wild Heart's ability to disengage + dash +polearm master + pike can be great for holding a position. Swap to elemental resistance against dragons Or go wolf if stuck in a...

    It's also not every turn. It requires at least one other turn, enemies in the correct location, enemies with enough hit points, and limited use features.

    D&D 5E (2024) 13 Attacks a Round the Most You Can Get?

    Right, Hew But you can still swap to a light weapon for Nick. You lose the great weapon damage bump that way, as well as any magic greataxe. But it's doable.

    D&D 5E (2024) 13 Attacks a Round the Most You Can Get?

    You got 4 attacks and can swap weapons. One with a halbred to trigger cleave. Swap to a Shortsword to trigger Nick I'm not saying it's the most damage. Just the most attacks. Oh, bonus action Polearm master.

    Wild surge action could still add more attacks, just not repeatedly. Warlock 1 EK 6 Bladesinger 6 Wild Sorcerer 7 Cast scorching ray, surge 55 for an extra action Then then Eldritch Blast, etc.. Feel free to count that.

    D&D 5E (2024) 13 Attacks a Round the Most You Can Get?

    Edit: nope. 1 spell slot per turn. Also theoretically. Wild magic using tides of chaos on scorching ray can trigger an extra action. Roll a 55 on the surge table for an extra action Then use tides of chaos on a scorching ray, and trigger an extra action. Repeat.... Then use Chromatic Orb for...

    D&D 5E (2024) Fireball is a C Tier Spell

    More like 2 vs 2.5. Again, not saying it's bad, but I would still rather have grappler in most parties. Just FYI, there are magical hand wraps for unarmed attacks. Which can apply to all attacks, including flurry.

    D&D 5E (2024) Heavily Obscured/Greater Invisibility and targeting spells?

    Many spells say "target you can see". But not all. Eldritch Blast doesn't. Also, if both parties are blind, then you get both disadvantage and advantage, which cancels out (also means no sneak attack).

    D&D 5E (2014) What is your go to Concentration spell?

    Web. It's available to a lot of classes (Eldritch Knight and Arcane Trickster), at lower levels. Double save. Once when you cast/enter and once at the Start of their turn. And add in easier access to Push (Pike +Polarm Master is great for this) and you can get even more saves. And yet again...

    D&D 5E (2024) Earthdawn races for Dnd 2024, views welcomed.

    Re flying. Consider having it only be 5' off the ground. Jump checks are doubled +5', and they can cast feather fall on themselves at-will. Still plenty useful for avoiding Web and Spiked Growth or there ground based effects. But not immune to melee.
