    D&D 5E (2014) Nonstandard Races You Love And Want Back

    That Carnifex is a large tyranid monster from Warhammer 40k. The picture I grabbed is actually the old school version from several editions ago. Here's a more modern revamp they use now: Same exact name is all, which is why I asked.

    D&D 5E (2014) Nerfing Great Weapon Master

    Might that include people such as you and Zapp, as an example? Just curious about your thoughts on that possibility. And yet, the devs know the numbers as well and find the range within the expectations of the system. In fact, their desires for it are clear. So perhaps it isn't the numbers that...

    I've seen Bard/Rogue multiclasses, primarily for expertise stacking skill monkey as a goal. Still wasn't broken.

    D&D 5E (2014) Menacing and Diplomat from UA Skill Feats

    Agree with this. As long as they figure out a way to impress that these feat are allowing a character to do a "thing" more easily than someone could otherwise, we're good. I've seen somewhat similar arguments in the past regarding disarm, for example. Some have complained that only...

    Who is telling the OP not to mod the feat? I must have missed that. Though I agree I've heard a few claim the latter.

    D&D 5E (2014) Nerfing Great Weapon Master

    For whatever reason, I continue to be surprised by those who toil so vigorously to convert 5e into 3e and/or 4e. Maybe my surprise is a result of my being so baffled as to their reasoning for trying? I mean, its not like they can't just use those editions' books to play the game they clearly...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Feats for Races

    Majority of what players? All of them? Are you qualified to make that assessment? I certainly am not. Sure, I could tell you what I've experienced at the tables I've played at. But even if that's a hundred tables, that's still just anecdotal. In what sense? In-game? Or are you speaking...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Class Design Criticism

    No. But you definitely presented your opinions which read, to me, like some kind of sweeping, objective fact. You made universal claims that apply only to your particular playstyle. Not anyone else's. Would my suggestions above work for you and your table? I guess not. And that's fine. But don't...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Class Design Criticism

    "...were I to implement it. Though that's just my opinion." "...to me. YMMV." "...in my games. I've heard others have had much better success in that department." "...at my table. But I can't speak for everyone." "...IMO. Though the devs have said otherwise and even given suggestions based...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Get Better At Skills With These Feats

    I get that. And I commend it. I'm all for people offering their feedback. But I don't get this. These feats don't change whether you can be "good" at a skill. Taking one does, however, significantly improve the chances of being "singularly great" at its corresponding skill. I'll give you that...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Get Better At Skills With These Feats

    Its only a feat tax if, as you imply above, DMs start houseruling to inflating DCs arbitrarily. 5e does not suggest doing so. In fact, it campaigns against it with bounded accuracy as a core system paradigm. Fair enough. Cool. I see nothing in the description of Stealthy that suggests it only...

    D&D 5E (2014) Menacing and Diplomat from UA Skill Feats

    For someone who was just espousing appreciation for abstraction, and understanding a need for simplification for gaming purposes, you seem hung up on "can't". Do you realize that the narrative is just as readily, "won't" or "disinclined"? I mean, are you apt to punch a friendly acquaintance of...

    No classes "need" it. Most classes still don't get it. These feats do not give classes expertise.
