    D&D 5E (2014) I want to be a tough full caster

    Hill Dwarf War Cleric is pretty tough and a full caster. Not as tough as a druid with all the extra hit points from animal shapes of course, but still pretty tough.

    D&D 5E (2014) Brainstorming about Interparty Conflict

    The party should probably put the paladin down. If that is too drastic, then at the very least the party should no longer help the paladin and let them go on their way.

    D&D 5E (2014) Athlete Feat and Crawling while Prone

    No, I would not. But I wouldn't be opposed to it being a house rule.

    D&D 5E (2014) I need good ideas

    Sorry, couple more questions. What races are the two characters, and 5 levels of rogue for your character, or 3 rogue and 2 of another allowed?

    D&D 5E (2014) I need good ideas

    I don't mind lending advice to this situation at all Shikamaru. I would like a few more details. What level is the paladin, what level is your new character. Also, is your new character an assassin as in single class rogue who is higher then level 3 and selected the assassin archetype, or is...

    Keep those pics coming! Again I gotta say great job.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E, HP, and Constitution

    My experience is similar to Horwath's. 14 and under for Con on a melee without consistent escape abilities seems like just asking to be down in the second round. And I don't feel that the games I play in are particularly deadly. I guess I could be wrong though.

    D&D 5E (2014) Terrain WIP for upcoming final boss fight

    I second what Imaculata said. That looks great, and it is pretty cool. Hope the final fight plays out well and is entertaining for you and your group as well. And more pics of course, ha ha.

    D&D 5E (2014) Brainstorming about Interparty Conflict

    If this was my character, I would take them out when they were sleeping. It's a matter of serving the greater good. They have proven they are foul beings, and if your character walks away from the party, it's the same as letting any other evil beings roam to spread evil. This sounds like a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Need a NPC villian

    I second the doppleganger. I had one as the main villain of a campaign. Loads of fun. Nothing wrong with the barb twins or anything, I just have fond memories of the doppleganger villain.

    D&D 5E (2014) Is he evil?

    Ahh, I thought all this discussion was in relation to the question of " Is he evil? " Especially when paladin codes and samurai behavior was swept up into the mix. I still don't agree with the term innocent for a person in the bouncer's position though. Obviously they were doing their job, but...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is he evil?

    People keep using the term innocent to describe the bouncer because during the last seconds of the fight he gave up. That is NOT innocent. That is realizing too late he couldn't actually defeat the people he attacked and hoping for mercy. Cold blooded murder keeps being used also. It was not...

    D&D 5E (2014) About Ability Scores...

    Along the same lines as Aaron's reply in regards to ASI's, the 1 ability point feats are much better when coupled with an odd stat then an even stat. In games that we use standard array ( 15 14 13 12 10 8 ) for instance, I often will play a standard human, put the 15 as primary stat, 14 as con (...

    D&D 5E (2014) How much do you value your Con score?

    Con is usually my character's second highest stat, especially if they are a caster who will be using concentration spells regularly. I also frequently play humans and take the Resilient ( Con ) feat because of how frequently Con saves come up, especially in conjunction with the aforementioned...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is he evil?

    I guess I just view it differently then you. Or I used the wrong terminology. To me, hunting down someone that killed your family is not a crime of passion, but fully premeditated. The criminal had time to think about it and go out of their way to enact their revenge. Killing someone seconds...

    D&D 5E (2014) Deceptive Spellcasting

    Personally I am against concealed/deceptive spellcasting. I believe it was intended that spellcasting be obvious, though circumstance may make it less obvious or go unoticed ( a crowd cheering, smoky conditions, and whatnot ). However I agree that by the rules there isn't anything stopping it...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is he evil?

    There's such a thing as crimes of passion, things done in the heat of the moment. I would classify this as such a thing. Yes, the player could have had the character act differently, but in the character eyes this person was just trying to kill them. The act was very wrong, but I don't think the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is the Monk of the Long Death overpowered?

    Rolled stats are overpowered if they are significantly better then point buy, since bounded accuracy is part of the game and the game makes certain assumptions about PCs at various levels. I don't agree with the notion that overpowered means game breaking, it simply means overpowered. Look at...

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Missile vs. Mirror Image

    If Magic Missile was an attack, the trigger to use it would still work, regardless of it applying a +5ac bonus ( which wouldn't matter ) or reducing the damage from Magic Missile to nothing. They aren't listed as two different effects, they both happen when you use the spell. Why would the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Missile vs. Mirror Image

    I was simply paraphrasing the same thing the rest of you were talking about with the rule "If there's ever any question whether something you're doing counts as an attack, the rule is simple: if you're making an attack roll,you're making an attack." So since we, as a group are discussing this...
