The main problem is delaying your spell progression. And you need TWF or a good chunk of SA damage is gone. And you need a high Con to keep that twinned blur up. But you can twin BB and dance away. It's a cool concept.

Play with adults who are story driven and believe in their DM enough that they will push as far as it takes to have a fun challenge. Let them police themselves to maximize their fun.

At low AC, bless on those 3 will add 1/6 of 700% ~ 116% Instead of 100% damage now, cleric's first action will do 116% before his turn returns. Bless will add 16% + 116% + 116% + ... At better AC, it should be around 1/4 or ~ 175% Bless will add 75% + 175% + 175% + ... If you lose your best...

Here's my python code: import random results = dict(hit=0, miss=0, bless=0) for i in range(100000): h = random.randint(1, 20) b = random.randint(1, 4) if h > 10: results['hit'] += 1 elif h + b > 10: results['bless'] += 1 else: results['miss'] += 1...

I find this hard to believe. There are 80 cases of 1d20 + 1d4, your answer must be a multiple of 1.25%. Assuming you need 11+ to hit, bless will help in 10 cases: - 10+1, 10+2, 10+3, 10+4 - 9+2, 9+3, 9+4 - 8+3, 8+4 - 7+4 That's 10/80 = 12.5% There must be something wrong with your program or...

High hit: 15/20 + 2.5 ~ 1/6 gain Middle hit: 10/20 + 2.5 ~ 1/4 gain Low hit: 5/20 + 2.5 ~ 1/2 gain Melee hit: 1d8+3 ~ 7.5 Guiding bolt: 4d6 ~ 14 Spiritual weapon: 2d8+6 ~ 15 D: charater DPR x: number of rounds N: number of characters Normal damage = NDx {+Dx} with spiritual weapon: NDx + Dx...

The sum of 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + ... = 2 This is a 50% chance of having to reroll next turn. The general case: S = ∑ p^i S * p = ∑ p^i - p^0 S * (1 - p) = p^0 S = 1 / (1 - p) If you have 19/20 of failing your save, it will take {1 / (1 - 19/20) = 20} rounds tl;dr Your average durations...

Feats p 165, 2nd para, last sentence: "each feat only once" And notice elemental adept last para.

Pick one, you can't have both. About the "unkillable" bit: remember there's no aggro. If you are too hard to kill but don't do any damage, smart foes will ignore you until the rest of the party is down.

Certainly not the sidebar on p127, since we're not hiding. Not p194, Unseen Attackers and Targets, which doesn't link "you automatically miss" to being hidden. So we're only left with the description of Wisdom (Perception) checks on p128, of which "or hear a monster moving stealthily in the...

It's your loss if you believe all men are Athenians. - You get hit by a fireball that does 32 damage to all in range. - because you succeed your save, we apply a "modifier to damage" to reduce it to 16 damage. - because you have resistance to fire damage, we apply the resistance to reduce it to...

You haven't brought a shred of evidence that succeeding the save for ice storm and fireball is some sort of "resistance". Your whole argument is nothing but "Plato is a man, Plato is Athenian. Therefore all men are Athenians." "Resistance and then vulnerability are applied after all other...

I like the "ammo dice" system to handle that. You roll an extra 1d8 "ammo dice" with every attack, if it rolls 1 you replace it with 1d6. You roll an extra 1d6 "ammo dice" with every attack, if it rolls 1 you replace it with 1d4. You roll an extra 1d4 "ammo dice" with every attack, if it rolls...

That's your first damage roll, it becomes 2+Int. You will have multiple application of that single damage roll, all doing the same damage. "Empowered Evocation (p. 117). The damage bonus applies to one damage roll of a spell, not multiple rolls." Your fireball won't do 35 damage to the first...

This was discussed some time ago and is supported by sage advice. http://www.sageadvice.eu/2016/10/17/magic-missile-do-you-roll-the-same-d4-for-all-darts/ quotes p196, damage rolls, saying it applies to darts from magic missiles. "Empowered Evocation (p. 117). The damage bonus applies to one...

How can you disagree with Yunru #71 then?

Ahh, ok. Sorry for the confusion.

I'm sorry, what was your previous post about, again? I just put in other words my previous post. Weren't you in disagreement?

"Resistance and then vulnerability are applied after all other modifiers to damage." Ice storm does not use the word "resistance" to describe the "half as much damage on a successful save". Plato is a man, Plato is Athenian. Therefore all men are Athenians. I would add: magic missile rolls a...

Well, you do need a "free hand" to hold the sword, which might be hard if you don a shield while grappling someone. But as long as you keep a hand for your weapon, your material component is covered. As for the other spells, you can still cast with a greatsword in hand. Or any versatile weapon...
