    D&D 5E (2024) The 2014 vs 2024 PHB Compatibility Thread

    I'm expecting that nobody will actually play 2014 characters in a 2024 campaign, because they'll be considered too mechanically weak, even if they technically still function. And I suspect that WotC wants it that way.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Reveal #1: "Everything You Need To Know!"

    This doesn't really sound backwards compatible to me. It seems like they're trying to have it both ways.

    D&D General Higher Level = Greater Complexity = Slower Play

    What's more, (some) people complain if the game doesn't give them more options. Unfortunately, the sweet spot is probably different for various groups of players.

    D&D General Why 5E Adventurs Suck!!!!!

    Yes, we had quite a long discussion thread on it. https://www.enworld.org/threads/matt-colville-on-adventure-length.703754/

    D&D General Why 5E Adventurs Suck!!!!!

    I started a thread to compile a list of available arcs, although I'm sure there are many that haven't been added yet. It might be a good starting point: https://www.enworld.org/threads/al-adventures-that-form-mid-size-story-arcs.672688/

    D&D General Why 5E Adventurs Suck!!!!!

    Not anymore, but WotC made 10+ "seasons'" worth of adventures themselves before outsourcing them.

    D&D General Why 5E Adventurs Suck!!!!!

    As I always point out, WotC still makes these in the form of Adventurer's League adventures. But since they're not published as physical books, they seem to fly under the radar for a lot of people. They absolutely vary in quality, but there are some real gems among them. It's pretty common to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Avernus Any Good?

    So Merric, apologies for necroing this thread, but I'm running this adventure for my group right now (at their request, so running something else isn't really an option). Since you're the most critical person of the adventure on the forum, I'd love it if you could give me a list of things to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Enhancing "Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus"

    Opening Trailer and the Song of Elturel Before the first session, I played this fan-made trailer for the group to get us all in the mood. The soundtrack is a Swedish version of the "Song of Elturel"--see further down for a link to a video with just the music. I've also found several...

    D&D 5E (2014) Glamour Bard is a bad ass subclass

    We know, but it's a big group, so there are almost always enough people who want it to make it worthwhile.

    D&D 5E (2014) Glamour Bard is a bad ass subclass

    Would work in theory, but the player in question would mutiny.

    D&D 5E (2014) The Tower of Ishmah - An adventure in the making

    I'm a little confused as to why warlocks are being targeted, since most warlock patrons are not gods. Does this setting have only celestial warlocks?

    D&D 5E (2014) Glamour Bard is a bad ass subclass

    I have a player in my group who plays nothing but Glamour Bards. Let me tell you, what I wouldn't give to design a combat once in a while that doesn't have to take Mantle of Inspiration into account....

    D&D General (SPOILERS for Vecna: Eve of Ruin) Are My Standards Too High for Adventures?

    I was lucky enough to back the Kickstarter for that one, so I got a discount. :D

    D&D General Lowest level of magic that still "feels like D&D"

    If you cut cantrips, would that raise the limit on available spells? I don't think many spellcaster players enjoy having to resort to their light crossbows, though.
