Haste doesn't do that. It lets you take an action that only lets you Attack(one weapon attack only), Dash, Disengage, Hide, or Use an Object. Nothing in there let's you cast a second cantrip. How are you maxing them all? I assume you are using Overchannel. It's...technically legal to use it...

I'm not sure how 2d8 damage with a cantrip is the same as 4d6+8. It's average 9 damage vs average 23. That's without factoring it hit chances. Most enemies have about +1 to saves. It's DC 15 to save for a 18 Wis cleric. So enemies save on a 14+ or about 35% of the time. Most enemies have...

WOTC looks like they really want to push the Adventurer's League. They want everything they publish to be playable in the Adventurer's League. AL is tied directly to the factions and to FR. Honestly, I don't see a way for them to publish things in any campaign setting other than FR with the...

This is not true at all. It took nearly 8 hours for my PCs to get to level 2 using the Starter Set. It took another 8 to get to level 3.

Here's the problem. A large number of Realms fans of the books are also D&D players and DMs. So, these people expect to see the game books stay in line with their novels. They think it's cool that when a new D&D book comes out that it mentions that a building in town that was destroyed by...

Those "clear guidelines" for Adventurer's League are "You can't get a second permanent magic item unless everyone at your table already has 1." It says absolutely nothing about how often you should get them. In fact, it is specifically designed to avoid getting too many. And, having seen the...

Yeah, it's been my experience that they get to work in the morning and then they verify they wait until the person who is in charge of giving the go ahead double checks the file for errors and gives the word. Then it gets posted, tested to make sure it can be downloaded and released. Since the...

That wasn't an exact quote. He said it would be up the same day that the PHB was released, August 8th.

You can copyright the exact text of a work. You can't copyright the concept of "roll a dice, get higher than a number". That's a process. You'd technically need a patent rather than copyright to protect it. Though, the patent of using dice to determine the result is likely so vague that it...

Mike Mearls said the plan was to update it when the PHB was in early release(i.e. today) just like it first came out when the Starter Set was in early release. Earlier this week someone asked Mike Mearls on twitter if it was still coming out on Friday and he said something like "we hope so, but...

I doubt they'd sell this product without WOTC's permission. That's way too big of a legal risk. It's likely they already have a closed door deal with WOTC that says they are allowed to publish this. Obviously WOTC is willing to negotiate with individual companies to allow them to publish 5e...

For now, I'm using the stats from the adventures I'm running which are Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle and Legacy of the Crystal Shard. I'm increasing their hitpoints slightly to make them a little tougher though. As of later today(or early next week) when the monsters get added to the Basic...

They've always shown that online. People who preordered got shipping confirmations yesterday however...don't know if it was EVERYONE who preordered, but some definitely did. Also, the people who have them in the other thread didn't order online. They went into one of the 3 or 4 Chapters...

Both the Alpha of the PHB and the playtest material say there is no difference at all between clerics of different gods who choose the same domain. I doubt this was changed in the final PHB.

I have only read the Companions and have been reading Night of the Hunter. But I've read the Sundering adventures and a couple things people have posted about the other books. Basically, the only things the books released so far say is that the Shadowfell is slowly getting further away from...

They will be. Mike Mearls has said that all adventures they publish will either have the stats in the Basic rules or in the adventure itself. The Monster Manual won't be necessary to run any of the published adventures. The update with the monsters is scheduled for tomorrow. Though Mike...

Wait...what book are you going by? There's nothing that says that in 5e. So far, my experience is that it takes about 5 5-hour sessions to gain a level when handing out xp per the book. The first couple of levels being about twice as fast. It takes 30 goblins to bring a group of 5 PCs to...

It's not a good idea to rouge backstab. It gets red all over people's backs and makeup is hard to get out.

It says you can pick anything. I'm guessing that's how it'll work in OP.

Now I feel like moving to Ontario.
