    D&D 5E (2024) Multiclassing and ability score drain?

    Nah, it's in place for a good reason. I'd personally set it higher at 15. As to the original poster's dilemma, as a DM I'd probably say you couldn't pick up new levels until you met the minimum again. I'd also be contemplating whether you'd lose access to certain class abilities until you...

    D&D 5E (2024) Take A Deeper Look At The New D&D Starter Set's Card-Based Characters

    You might want to check out DriveThruCards.com - they may have something there. If nothing else, the Strange Aeon card maker software should have community content templates for what you are looking for.

    D&D 5E (2024) Take A Deeper Look At The New D&D Starter Set's Card-Based Characters

    I have the 1991 & 1992 factory set. I think there was one more - or at least a partial set. From what i recall they did lose the company money, and the stopped them to focus on printing more Spellfire, which was making them money. I mean, looking at E-bay, you can buy a factory set of 750 of...

    D&D 5E (2024) Wargamer Takes Shot At WotC for Not Respecting Forgotten Realms Canon.

    I'd certainly be for a Dragonrider / Dragon Pet subclass. But not at the mauling of an existing bit of lore. If they explained that during the 100-year jump the Purple Knights had allied themselves with dragons (purple or otherwise) and had become Dragon Knights of some sort, I would probably...

    Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks Is Talking About AI in D&D Again

    The state of my yard would beg to differ with you.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Psion+++++thread

    Don't forget to throw Jedi in there. They are the "mystic/psychic warriors" that would be akin to Psychic Paladins.

    The "Great Man" theory is dead, Jim.

    I didn't realize that set had artifacts in it!

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Psion+++++thread

    Clerics don't have an entirely different "Miracle" system, nor do Bards have some sort of "Song" system - they simply have their own unique set of spells (for the most part). At first, I was against doing the same thing with psions - treating their abilities as spells. However, the more I...

    D&D 5E (2014) MM 5.24 or the MM 5e (w/ MM Expanded, Bloodied & Bruised, Home-Field Advantage) ?

    Haven't heard of Home Field Advantage, but the 2014 MM + the three MM Expanded I'll take any day over the 2024 MM.

    D&D General New Dungeons & Dragons Adventurer Dice set

    I've seen them at our local LGFS. They're overpriced, you'd be better off with a Chessex set and a little bit of Google (latter totally optional). I picked up the paladin class set of dice from the later post, and they're not all that stunning at the table. Likewise, they lie - the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Take A Deeper Look At The New D&D Starter Set's Card-Based Characters

    TSR tried doing random trading cards back in the 90's (it had NPCs, monsters, items and the like in it). It didn't do so well back then, and I doubt it would again. As for cards covering things like the Rod of Lordly Might, take a look at The Deck Of Many's products. They probably have one...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mike Mearls 5E 2014 Monster Mods?

    I could see halving hit points and increasing damage between 1.5x to 2x. I'd only do it for creatures of, say CR 1 or higher - maybe even just CR 3 or higher (whatever 5th level+ characters fight commonly).

    D&D 5E (2024) Take A Deeper Look At The New D&D Starter Set's Card-Based Characters

    I doubt randomized cards, but they did sell cards in 4E for powers, and we've had 5E spells and some class/racial ability cards put out. I could see it being done, but beyond spell cards - they're not for me.

    D&D General What Is D&D Generally Bad At That You Wish It Was Better At?

    A Skill system that frankly sucks. To work, everyone has to have a moderate skill at everything from the start or they don't get used at all. And frankly, combat and spellcasting should be skills too. Especially when so many spells circumvent having a skill at something.

    D&D 5E (2014) Which was the most recent Wizards adventure you consider a classic?

    Oh, I love Goodman. I still have all 52 of their 3E modules sitting on my shelf, and with HumbleBundle picked up a good selection of their 5E adventures! I haven't even gotten to start looking at their DCC adventures... My point was, though that a lot of people (on this board) seem to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Which was the most recent Wizards adventure you consider a classic?

    WotC (and others - Goodman's OAR series, for a huge example) seems to clue in that customers are more comfortable buying "what they know" (i.e., reprints/remixes of old material) rather than take a chance on the (iffy) quality of brand-new stuff, in my opinion. The design team has attempted to...
