Except the see invisible spell, blind sense, tremorsense and true sight specifically call out that they can see invisible creatures, that is how they can "somehow see you". With the hide action you can be seen by a successful search check or a high passive perception, we do not know if or what...

So I have to agree with @Maxperson on this one. The PHB should have a good description of what each skill can do. Now under the search, study and influence actions do give you some information about what those specific skills can do but your physical skills need more information

So I used to play with a DM back in 2e and 3e who would not let us know our stats. We told him what our priorities were and described our characters to him and then he determined what they were.

See I think you are assuming they are taking away DM agency since we haven't seen the DMs guide. Once we see the DMs guide I feel like we will see there are a lot more official ways for DMs to adjust difficulty and grant bonuses or penalties. Yes your hide check might always be a DC of 15 when...

@Maxperson The PHB give you enough information to make an informed choice on what character you want to play. The game is a collaboration between players and the DM so yes if you are playing in a game the DM should then tell you what gods you can choose from. The idea that you should have all of...

Forgotten Realms: 50 gods +20 old gods, + gods from other parts of Faerun for about 100. Dragonlance 21 gods. Greyhawk listed as over 100 although most of those are minor I would drop it down to 40ish.

I was hoping the same but I saw the official new spell and it is the same as it used to be.

Just so people know according to other people under NDA Nerd Immersion there are still a few sections that you can not show the creature stat blocks and the index. By showing a page by page shot of the book including the pages that they were still under an NDA for he has broken his NDA and was...

The 3000 copy's that are out there are in the hands of people who are still at gencon. Come Monday maybe Tuesday I expect a fan who legally can show you a page by page break down will be out there doing it. Most of the content creators are doing small staggered releases I suspect this is to help...

One of the things they said was going to be in the DMG was list of important people, places, that have happened and/or are used throughout D&D's history. This will probably include many gods from Forgotten Realms. In the Greyhawk setting part of the DMG there will be the Greyhawk pantheon. In...

First just as an FYI my character has been a crafter in every game, I have played in the last ... 10 years to some extent. I have had brew masters who kept the party in libations during our long rests, I have played a doll maker who was an assassin, my Viking was a shipwright and the list goes...

As long as you don't make a sound, make an attack, use a verbal component, or get spotted on a search check then yes. However most of those will happen sooner rather than later.

So one of the things they have said is that the took out most of the rules that were more for DM's and put those in the DMG. So based on that there is a hope that, since they said there was more explanation, in the DMG it will be sufficient. The problem is that they haven't shown anyone the DMG...

So in my opinion is as follows. 1: make your hide check while no one is looking as long as you get at least a 15 or higher you are now "invisible". 2: when you enter into an area where someone could possibly see you the dm checks their passive perception vs the number you rolled...let's say you...

So that is the guards perception noticing the rogue. Once you are hidden then people can make checks to see if they notice you before that you clearly are not hidden.

See to me it is the same as failing to pick a lock or failing we'll most everything that is not perception in that you know that you failed. You don't know that you failed to find a trap because you literally don't know that there are any. A player can tell if he is not hidden imo

Except with the minimum DC now he knows that he is not hiding well enough.

It is because he got a digital pre release copy over a month ago. Each of the pre release off have the person who the copy was given to. This way if there were leaks it would be easy to identify who leaked

So according to some of the above content creators it is that twitch is watched for live plays but not discussions about the rule or about the game in general. Now who knows some of those twitch creators might have 2024 games lined up once the NDA is lifted.

Most of it has to do with how many subscribers they have, how active they are with D&D on their channel vs other content.
