If you described most rounds of combat, though, you'd no doubt have similar results. For example, in the Tales of the Valiant game I'm playing in, last session, my Alseid (a sort of deer-centaur) Cleric started her turn 15' up on the branch of a mighty oak. Due to her Quick Talent she has a...

It probably makes more sense in regions of the Realms where Genies have had more influence, like Calimshan. Or maybe it's proponents are Genasi- Earth Genasi in particular, are known to have a special Paladin order. There does need to be a little more lore here, but I don't think it's a...

I have had experience with a player being confused about their proficiency bonus and what it applied to in the past. But I don't think it's really any worse than remembering something like a Base Attack Bonus. What does occasionally cause confusion that I can understand is recalling what your...

Hang on, I just remembered that there are Elemental Gods in the Realms: Kossuth, Grumbar, Ishtishia, and Akadi. Also, in Zakhara, it is believed the Zakharan pantheon created genies.

Maybe the genies empowering the Paladins are the Wind Dukes of Aqaa (Vaati)?

Yeah, either you're always going to have to deal with 300 goblins with rest or 300 goblins without rest, right? Do3s anyone really think the players can handle 300 goblins without resting? RE: hordes with ranged attacks. Don't forget cover, even cover that comes in the form of goblins in...

I've had players asking if they could turn their action into a second bonus action for quite awhile now, lol. It's something you could do with 4e's Minor Action. I'm loath to allow it because while it doesn't look problematic, it would be my luck that they'd find some way to break it.

So consider a large dungeon, like say, the Sunless Citadel. It has multiple factions of foes who are hostile to one another. Given the level range, it's unlikely the party will have LTH, but bear with me. So if the party ends up fighting the Kobolds and decides to hole up and rest after a few...

See what they're talking about is that the fact the text says "if the spell is of a level you can prepare". It doesn't specify that you have to be able to prepare Wizard spells of that level, just a spell of a level you can prepare. So our hypothetical Wizard 3/Druid 5 can indeed prepare level...

I see what you're getting at. But while you could prepare 3rd level Druid spells in this case, you couldn't actually prepare 3rd level Wizard spells. So while the text does have ambiguity about your ability to scribe 3rd level Wizard spells into your book, you still can't select to prepare a...

Sure but aren't those the same? You can't prepare 3rd level spells as a multiclassed Wiz 4/Druid 1. That means you can't prepare 3rd level spells. If you can't prepare 3rd level spells, how could you copy them into your book?

Star Wars d20 (not Saga!) might be obscure...

Read that part about Copying a spell again. "If it's of a level you can prepare" is the key. Now, in the multiclassing section, you find: Spells Prepared. You determine what spells you can prepare for each class individually, as if you were a single-classed member of that class. If you are a...

It probably has more to do with my players than anything else. If there's some "average 5e D&D player" out there, I don't think I've ever run a game for such, lol.

I think that might be because you don't often see large amounts of targets for AoE spells. If the system was built to actually allow your CR 1's and lower to be real threats, that might be different. But not only am I only guess, that's just my experience, where low level foes are usually...

No, since a Wizard can only copy spells that they can prepare: Copying a Spell into the Book.When you find a level 1+ Wizard spell, you can copy it into your spellbook if it’s of a level you can prepare and if you have time to copy it. For each level of the spell, the transcription takes 2...

And the party inside sees the goblins doing this and reaches outside the hut to brush them away, or just, I don't know, steps outside to kill the goblins? Only the caster has to stay inside for the duration, and it doesn't obscure their vision.

I haven't played with a Twilight Cleric, but as I understand it, a big complaint isn't so much that they are busted (though they might force a DM to use more specialized tactics if they did find them a problem at their table), but that they are so much better than most (or arguably) all other...

Having Type 2 myself, I once wrote a fantasy story about a character from our world who ended up in a D&D-a-like setting. They were really worried about not having insulin, but then were handed a magic item that protected them from disease and were over the moon, while their new adventurer...
