    D&D 5E (2024) Are single class martials still going to be viable in 2024?

    You still can use a bonus action to make an attack when you kill an opponent or when you roll a 20, you also get a +1 to STR I believe so it is a very solid feat but best on a fighter than other martial classes due to the extra attacks.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D 2024 Player's Handbook Reviews

    So it was asked at the content creators panel at gen con. Someone asked about the Artificer and Chris responded that they were working on that as he spoke but he could not give any details so it could be Eberron 2024, it could be another Tasha's or Xanathar's guide like book or it could be just...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D 2024 Player's Handbook Reviews

    Just an FYI they are already working on their next book and Perkins said it will have Artificer in it. Now if that is an updated class or just new sub class he did not specify but with it already in the works I think we will get it in 2025.

    D&D 5E (2024) Are single class martials still going to be viable in 2024?

    The wording of GWM is "to attacks you make with the attack action", they have added that to a few things so they don't work with weapon spells like true strike, they don't work on bonus action and they don't work on reactions.

    Yeah I have to agree that I would rule it after you make your attack roll.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D 2024 Player's Handbook Reviews

    So in my opinion the problem stems from having the bulk of your play testing done with people who know what the rules are supposed to mean. I have seen this same problem in other companies and other products. They know exactly how the hide rules are intended to work so when they read the rules...

    D&D 5E (2024) Dual Wielding

    That is way to much for the feat, also remember that all of our feats give us a +1 to a stat like dex for this one. The bonus for the dual weld feat has moved from welding 2 d8 weapons to having a 4th attack (assuming mastery) which is much better in my opinion. 2-3 bonus damage on average...

If you go to make magical item you can type in the name of am existing one and just modify fit so you can change a vorpal sword and change they weapon type to any existing weapon so you can have a vorpal whip of you want...

    D&D 5E (2014) Should the Paladin be changed into a more generic half-caster magic knight?

    So I could see some type of arcane path for your paladin. I don't particularly feel like they are tied with divine thematically anymore just with their spell selection.

    Just to let you know the Dungeon Dudes asked this question at Gencon and were told by Perkins that you get TWF on both the attack from nic and the attack from Duel welder

    D&D 5E (2024) Are single class martials still going to be viable in 2024?

    All Classes: you get your subclass at lvl 3 so for me taking a multi class dip before then is something I don't think I would personally ever do with a few rare exceptions. Fighter: You can get your bonus action attack at level 4 when you can pick up a feat, that combined with the fact that the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Dual Wielding

    Not that while you can draw as part of your attacks made with an attack action that last bonus action throw you will not be able to draw immediately. It shouldn't be a problem since you should always still have a dagger in one hand but something to remember.

    D&D 5E (2024) Are single class martials still going to be viable in 2024?

    So Paladins: a 1 lvl warlock for pact of the blade is nice but all of the martial styles feats provide you with are or dex so you are you are probably going to still get a fairly high str. Fighters, if you want a bonus action attack you will be picking up PAM, GWM, Crossbow Expert, or Dual...

    D&D 5E (2024) Learning to Love the Background System

    So I am curious what inability to customize are you talking about? I make custom backgrounds, custom subclasses, custom feats, custom magic items and custom monsters regularly. There are a few hiccups like certain things only being able to be added to a feat but not a magical item or sub...

    D&D 5E (2024) Learning to Love the Background System

    No I was talking about the ability in DND beyond to create your own background, feats, subclasses ect. Once the 2024 PHB drops when you go to creat a new background they will have a place to put your background feature instead of background feature and a place for the ASI Now as far as the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Dual Wielding

    Alas they are improvised weapons so no weapon masteries. If you are however a giant soul barbarian then you can set them on fire and throw them and they return to you automatically.

    D&D 5E (2024) Learning to Love the Background System

    Regardless of if they have the custom background feature in and beyond it is very easy to create your own backgrounds in DND beyond and that is not going away.

    D&D 5E (2024) Do you understand the words coming out of my mouth? - Languages in 2024

    First of, I love these backgrounds. Second I was quite disappointed to not see Martial adept or the similar fighting style in the core book. We have background feats that dip you into wizard, cleric, or druid but the martial one is Savage attacker and I just think something more interesting...
