Oh man, my character is straight up stupid. lol The only thing holding me back from adding champion levels is I'd be becoming a clone of Tony's DE character. He's a Champion 4/Barb X with a greataxe.

That's the only thing holding me back: the lower critical hit. It doesn't make sense to go champion and increase the chance of a critical hit if I'm going to go Rogue and reduce the damage when I get a critical. I think it's best if I go with one or the other.

Point buy. Right now he's a Barbarian level 5. Half Orc. Stats are 18/16/16/8/8/8 Game is expected to go to about 15th level. Barbarian over level 5 is kinda lackluster. I'm thinking of multiclassing. Am I better with Rogue (Assassin) levels, and using a Rapier (unlimited sneak attacks with...

Hi Waylander! Check your PM for my contact info. One of our players has offered their house for us. It's in Montclair, NJ. It's looking like the games will be Sundays at 1:00

Thank goodness. Some of those are wonderful, and have inspired me to create characters similar to them. I was really worried they'd be gone when the Wizards forums closed.

Is that from Twitter? Can you please post a link or screenshot? TY

You're right, short rest, not long. My bad. Still, the ability by itself works with light armor. The Monk and the Barbarian ability doesn't work together because they're both Unarmored Defense. The Bladesinger ability is different. It's a temporary bonus.

ZOMG, they're going to hate the iron crisis. LOL

Barbarian/Bladesinger AC totally works. One sets your AC (Unarmored Defense), one is an AC bonus (Bladesinging), and Bladesinging only works for two combats per long rest. That being said, it's a combo I don't see being used often. As mentioned earlier, you probably don't have the stats to...

Do the DMs here make characters explain their multiclass choices, or do you just let them go with it? Does a new class take years to train in? Some multiclassing just makes sense to me. The Barbarian, exposed to a more disciplined lifestyle picks up Fighter levels. I can see any character...

Wow. This is so much better and easier. Thank you. Thank you so much!

One PC is the offspring of Bhaal. I plan on following the first BG, with one (or two) leaving Candlekeep and the rest meeting up shortly after (either at the Friendly Arm Inn or on the way). The one PC will discover his demigod abilities after dreams. I just thought this would work for me...

I was brainstorming a bit on future ideas for games, and I think this one could really work. Thoughts?

I want to create the best D&D "feel" for the players. Two of my players are brand new, and have never rolled a d20 before. On top of that, I'm new to being the DM. While I'm looking forward to this, I do want to make things as easy as possible. Thanks!!

IDK man, this looks kinda like a glaive. I can see a Barbarian with a polearm.

Thank you everyone. You've helped me a lot better how? Why?

I'm trying to get supplies to host my first game as a DM and pawns are a much more affordable option than buying tons of miniatures. Thank you.

Half Orc Barbarian with (at least) 3 levels of Champion is a crit machine. Reckless attack and crits on 19's make them happen a lot. Half Orcs loooove crits. :D

I know in editions before this, sorcerers were often considered weaker because they didn't get spell levels as fast as wizards (they'd get their first 2nd level spell at level 4, while wizards got it at 3), but that isn't the case anymore. What's the skinny on these spellchuckers? What do new...
