    D&D General Baldur's Gate 3 will now be releasing August 3rd on PC and September 6th on PS5, increased level cap, race & class details and more

    What level are you? You really should be level 4 before doing the goblin camp. And while the hag is doable at level 4, I would honestly wait until level 5.

    D&D General Baldur's Gate 3 will now be releasing August 3rd on PC and September 6th on PS5, increased level cap, race & class details and more

    Either Lore Bard or Devotion Paladin. I've had it narrowed to those two for the longest time, yet still struggling to decide between them.

    Kill the Final Fantasy series in general? No. Kill Final Fantasy XVI specifically? Actually quite possible, considering the mixed reception that game has had. (Personally I enjoyed it well enough, certainly far more than I did XIII and XV, but it is held back by some significant flaws.) Also if...

    D&D 5E (2024) Playtest 6 Survey is Open

    So apparently WOTC is intentionally limiting feedback on the Ranger compared to all other classes. They don't even let you rate and comment on the Ranger subclasses, and you only get 200 words on the Ranger compared to 500 for everyone else. LOL, WOTC really does hate Rangers.

    Oh, I agree. That wasn't a complaint. I just think it's funny that WOTC pretty much admitted Searing Smite is an intentionally inferior spell.

    I love how they kept it on the Divine list and didn't bother to make it part of the Paladin's Smite kit. Hey, Cleric, wanna Smite? Cool, you get Searing Smite, which is still light years inferior to even the Paladin's nerfed Divine Smite.

    D&D 5E (2024) UA Ranger (Playtest 6)

    It's overpowered in the early levels but just fine past level 6 or so. They just need to add this feature to the progression: Favored Enemy improvement When you reach 6th level as a ranger, you no longer need to concentrate on hunter's mark.

    D&D 5E (2024) So, Cunning Srike?!

    Yup, I love it. Hopefully this also means the Battle Master is getting a do-over.

    Needed to happen.

    D&D 5E (2024) How is Flex still a thing?

    Pretty sure they haven't had the opportunity to revise weapon mastery yet. All of it is as it was in the previous doc.

    D&D 5E (2024) UA Ranger (Playtest 6)

    Plus Rangers can still take cantrips as their Fighting Style (from Tasha's). And having Weapon Mastery makes that tradeoff much less painful.

    Fine with this. If you want cantrips as a Paladin or Ranger, take the Fighting Style from Tasha's. Weapon Mastery makes doing that a lot less painful now.

    Good, I hope that means the 2024 Battle Master steps up its game.

    D&D 5E (2024) New Survey Results | Druid & Paladin | Unearthed Arcana | D&D

    Not even so much that. More like to multiclass, you need to have the stats for ALL the classes you want. A Paladin/Ranger multiclass needs 13s in four stats (STR, DEX, WIS, CHA) to even happen in the first place.

    D&D 5E (2024) New Survey Results | Druid & Paladin | Unearthed Arcana | D&D

    Because you'd need 13s in literally four stats to even do it?

    D&D 5E (2024) How to balance the shield spell?

    If the Paladin takes Shield, it's not going to smite with 1st-level slots.

    D&D 5E (2024) How to balance the shield spell?

    lolwut? You're relying on something that happens 5% of the time, and within a specified time frame. Shield OTOH affects 25% of all attack rolls against you. That's a much higher frequency of meaningful effect. It's not hypothetical. It's pure math. You're the one arguing hypotheticals here...

    D&D 5E (2024) How to balance the shield spell?

    It breaks the game because it gives the Wizard AC against multiple attacks that should be reserved for martial characters. It's just another example of casters ruling over martials and doing martial things better than martials do. Also by level 4, a Variant Human or Custom Lineage Wizard has...

    D&D 5E (2024) How to balance the shield spell?

    OK but we were talking about Paladins dipping to get Shield. So, nice job shifting the goalposts. P.S. I don't think Wizards should have access to 18+ AC against multiple attacks in the first place without investing in Lightly and Moderately Armored feats. It just makes them too good at...
