    D&D 5E (2024) 13 Attacks a Round the Most You Can Get?

    There was the 2014 ranger ability to attack each creature in an area. And then you unrealistically pack the area with pixies. But that's gone. They can still damage a thousands small creatures, but it's now a saving throw. Same as cone of cold in any edition.

    D&D 5E (2024) What are your 2024 houserules?

    Seems like if you select "question" when making a new post (discussion / poll / question). Though I did that by accident, but sure. Up vote your favorite houserule.

    D&D 5E (2024) What are your 2024 houserules?

    Mine Two weapon fighting takes 2 hands. I'm sure that was the intention of the rules. Spirit Guardians and similar doesn't trigger when moving the Cleric around outside their turn. Conjure Minor Elemental damage is limited to twice per turn. Hidden breaks if you don't have cover at the end...

    D&D 5E (2014) What is the Deal with the Twilight Cleric?

    It's easy enough to just throw out a few more minion to chip away at the THP. Or say "the whole room fills with Posion gas, you all take 5 damage at the start of your turn". Which makes the Twilight feel special for countering that, when it's really there to counter Twilight. Or every monster...

    D&D 5E (2024) Can Wild Magic be a Wizard 'thing' in D&D 5?

    I still disagree with the premise, but I am pro fun. So maybe something like. 3: as a bonus action, select a random 2md level spell from the wizard spell list. You have that spell prepared until you take a long rest. In addition, once before the end of your next turn you can cast it using a...

    Which means the wizard would know what he is getting, even if others don't.

    D&D 5E (2024) Can Wild Magic be a Wizard 'thing' in D&D 5?

    It doesn't work thematically IMO. Wizards study arcane formulas, which doesn't lend itself to chaos. Your write the arcane pattern and say the words, and the thing happens. Do it again, repeat the results. It would make more sense for a Cleric or Warlock tied to an entity of chaos. That...

    And while we're on the subject. To make your own rubies you need 99% Aluminum Oxide (sold as rock polish, not the sand blasting stuff) 1% Chromium Oxide. More makes it deeper red, less is more clear. Really just a tiny amount, think drop of food dye in water. Alternatively go 1% Titanium...

    I've been toying with 3d printing rubies. I got a arc hot enough to melt the aluminum oxide, but haven't managed to control it very well. So it's not very well shaped. Probably need to do some magnetic stuff to aim it. Seems like you're ahead of me. So can you put a UV led in the middle so...

    D&D 5E (2024) Best Classes 1-20 5.5 vs 5.0

    It's the barbarian I'm playing at the moment. But even without Gnome, Mage Slayer really helps cover a main weakness of barbarian (or fighter), with +1 Str.

    D&D 5E (2024) Best Classes 1-20 5.5 vs 5.0

    Paladin. High durability, high damage, lots of support, and some control and utility. I know you said subclass was out, but Wild Heart's ability to disengage + dash +polearm master + pike can be great for holding a position. Swap to elemental resistance against dragons Or go wolf if stuck in a...

    It's also not every turn. It requires at least one other turn, enemies in the correct location, enemies with enough hit points, and limited use features.

    D&D 5E (2024) 13 Attacks a Round the Most You Can Get?

    Right, Hew But you can still swap to a light weapon for Nick. You lose the great weapon damage bump that way, as well as any magic greataxe. But it's doable.

    D&D 5E (2024) 13 Attacks a Round the Most You Can Get?

    You got 4 attacks and can swap weapons. One with a halbred to trigger cleave. Swap to a Shortsword to trigger Nick I'm not saying it's the most damage. Just the most attacks. Oh, bonus action Polearm master.

    Wild surge action could still add more attacks, just not repeatedly. Warlock 1 EK 6 Bladesinger 6 Wild Sorcerer 7 Cast scorching ray, surge 55 for an extra action Then then Eldritch Blast, etc.. Feel free to count that.

    D&D 5E (2024) 13 Attacks a Round the Most You Can Get?

    Edit: nope. 1 spell slot per turn. Also theoretically. Wild magic using tides of chaos on scorching ray can trigger an extra action. Roll a 55 on the surge table for an extra action Then use tides of chaos on a scorching ray, and trigger an extra action. Repeat.... Then use Chromatic Orb for...

    You forgot Nick. Also, do you mean weapon attacks? Because you can stack Eldritch Blast. Warlock 1, 4 Sorcerer 2, Quicken, 8 Eldritch Knight 11, 8 + 2 weapon Bladesinger 6, 12 + 1 weapon +Action Surge, 20 + 2 weapon + haste, 28 + 2 weapon **Warcaster, 32 + 2 weapon Nick 32 + 3 weapon Cleave...

    D&D 5E (2024) Fireball is a C Tier Spell

    More like 2 vs 2.5. Again, not saying it's bad, but I would still rather have grappler in most parties. Just FYI, there are magical hand wraps for unarmed attacks. Which can apply to all attacks, including flurry.
