I haven't played one but he can create magic items at the end of a short rest. How can that possibly suck?

To start with why does the bladesinger need to use shield? According to you earlier the enemy would "ignore" her, but instead of "ignoring", they use every single action they have in the first round to attack her? You just contridicted yourself. As a matter of fact the argument was not only...

Totally get what you are saying. On the other hand though I like a broader interprretation of the fantasy setting. I found the stereotypical knight in shining armor saving the princess to be rather flat. Not saying it isn't fun but not as fun as a walking cat-person for me. Part of this is...

I get what you are saying and I see it as a possibility but to be honest with the popularity of 5e I don't think wizards is itching for a new edition, especially after the 4e debacle. From a business model point of view they have to keep selling books, so yes they need new content and if there...

I agree, a few things though. First the enemy never flee in BG3 because of AC (at least that I have found). And you can certainly draw fire onto a high-AC character by keeping other characters back out of the battle and then bringing them in at the opportune time. What I am talking about...

The moral of the story is the enemy can't effectively get to any other party member, you know it, you have been exposed and that is why they are all running away. Like I said above it is a 40x40 barracks with a normal door and no other exit .... that scenario really speaks to the fundamental...

"Not a threat" yet all 6 enemy flee from battle without even trying. In case you missed we took the room, we won the fight and we used less resources than otherwise would have. And that was the whole point of this discussion, the thread where they are now raising the alarm is nothing but a...

Because I don't have a sign around my neck saying I have a high AC. At this point I am one elf standing in a doorway with a human behind her that some of them can see.

This is such BS and you know it. Even with good rolls where I kill all four orcs (which is odd since our rolls are terrible until now) and if I advance and threaten both orogs, I only get one OA and 1 orog still gets away EVERY SINGLE TIME. There is no way at all to keep him, even if it is...

So basically they did not go past me and kill the rest of the party like you said they would all the way back in the begining of this whole thread. We took the room with no casualties. Battle over. Thread over. Based on what you just said here, if I opened with fireball like you wanted the...

If it is a 10 foot wide double door the rest of the party is way back, all the way on the stairs. I open the door and seeing the orcs I back up 30 feet into the hall with the party on the stairs behind me. I am going to tak a ready action and use booming blade on the first enemy that gets...

I never said that and it would not happen in the game I play. People never "line up in a conga line and attack" in games I play. Ironically that is more or less what you think the party should do all just do an attack instead of thinking tactically. With an actual door the bladesinger just...

No it is not it is a door .... I opened a door saw the orcs and caused initiative. Here is your exact quote: "Its a party of a Wizard, Ranger, Cleric and Rogue in formation in a 10' wide hallway, opening a dungeon door and fighting Orcs in the room beyond." You "never stipulated" the size of a...

The orc can not just move past me I am standing in a doorway. I am medium and take up 5 feet of space. A door is 3' wide and we are both medium size. Form the PHB page 191 "you can move through a hostile creatures space only if the creature is two sizes larger or smaller than you" If we are...

Of course you did! Again - you did not do my move right. I posted a new diagram for you, try looking at it. Stop whining and make your first move, one that is actually representative of what I said I did above.

You have my positon wrong in your diagram. At the end of my turn I am in the hallway with the rest of the party. I get to choose where I am let's try this again, as I posted above: "Bladesinger opens the door sees the Orcs causes initiative, the orcs and orogs get their over the top extremely...

This is exactly what I have been trying to say! THANK YOU!

That is the whole idea .... and it works. As for your argument about "being a wizard" every spell being discussed is a wizard spell, and there is an entire school of wizardry in the PHB that focuses on abjurations and another that focuses on illusions. Maybe your group doesn't use them and...

I dashed through the room because you said the orcs were 20' away from the parrty in a 40x40 room. Not that the party was in the hallway. That is fundamentally different. I answered above if they are in a hallway.
