    D&D General Initial Thoughts on the Two 2025 Forgotten Realms books

    I can barely paint minis. I have the artistic ability of a blind gerbil on Crack. Apologies to the Gerbil tbh.

    D&D General Mike Mearls says control spells are ruining 5th Edition

    Lol I used assassin as well and bhaalists. Same thing happened all 7 got paralyzed. I redid them at CR13 and buffed the hell out of them. Remember my chromatic orb thread? Guess what it does especially in that scenario. CR13 had a +1 wisdom save. It got 1 turn. Legendary saves need to ve...

    D&D General Adventurers in Faerun-The Book of Low and Mid Level Adventures?

    I can run them. Its not fun though ive gone up to 21-30. Amount of effort isn't worth the time/fun ratio.

    D&D General Mike Mearls says control spells are ruining 5th Edition

    Yeah i prefer the newer hold spelks vs say 3E. Being immune to them is basic 101 at higher levels though. Level 7+ cleric or ring will generally do it. I use hold spells on PCs had 3 in one encounter last week. The DCs 12-14 and theyre all buffed and have appropriate defenses. 1-2 failed...

    D&D General Mike Mearls says control spells are ruining 5th Edition

    4 hours would be excessive. I dont mind now ones and my fights are quick. Each player gets about a minute otherwise is dodge action. Old school hold person could suck but fights were quick. My longest was 2 hours in 2E in a 27 hour session. It was a siege though

    D&D General What Is In The New FR Books That IS Useful Outside FR?

    You could make them evil. The purple dragon is an ancient black one with a skin condition.

    D&D General How often do you use or encounter Dungeons and/or Dragons in your games?

    Dungeons. I use smal ones a lot. Every level probably or at least most ones. Dragons 2-3 times a campaign probably. True ones at least.

    D&D 5E (2024) Forgotten Realms subclasses discussion.

    Well stoneskins not very good tbh so thats fine. 4 or 5 high DC stun saves well draw your own conclusions.

    D&D 5E (2024) Forgotten Realms subclasses discussion.

    Well idk about all levels. Did A5E nerf all the spells not just fireball?

    Ive seen the X4 multiplier estimate being used as well. Funny here when you get pushback on bomscan numbers essentially confirming what WotCs already told us lol. Basically the bog selling 5E items eg core rules, tashas+Xanathars, 1st boxed set and Strahd/Dragon Queen which got redone...

    D&D 5E (2024) Forgotten Realms subclasses discussion.

    5.5 is kinda like that. Only "good" caster level 3 is the warlock. Specific druid and cleric subclasses are next up.

    Ironically some of the "standard" estimates for 5E sales is 4 or 5 times bookscans numbers. I look at it more like a poll. Whatever its numbers are its bigger than any poll. I dont use bookscan for total numbers and as I said we dont know what metrics WotC uses.

    Maybe not completely useless. We dont know what metrics wotc uses. 60% digital and we dont know if they're using revenue, profit or sales numbers. Bookscans useful for trends and big selling items. Its useless for overall sales and WotC Financials. We also don't know what % bookscan...

    I dont think they considered things that much. In effect they nerfed the fighter outside of very stingy DMs.

    Paraphrase the video? Big selling first year is often 200k to 300k. 100k sales on release could count as fastest selling ever.

    That piece isnt bad at all. Theres also a bard picture. She looks like Jem and the Holograms refugee. Kinda like it though it may not fit ones viewpoint of D&D tbf.
