    D&D 5E (2014) So long and thanks for all the fish!

    I'm also not much a fan of the use of the quote borrowed for this thread's title. It implies the OP is the majestic, hyper-intelligent dolphin here, who is abandoning us, the lowly, ignorant humans doomed to imminent destruction.

    D&D 5E (2014) The Fighter Problem

    Do you mean using the same framework as player characters?

    D&D 5E (2014) So long and thanks for all the fish!

    The only thing worse, IMO, than terse posters who then ignore you, are those who feel the need to melodramatically announce their departure...

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

    I'm probably totally cool with just ruling that the caster of MM can choose whether they want any give missile to "pop" image(s), and/or hit the caster.

    D&D 5E (2014) Why Green Flame Blade is Over Rated- And You Are Doing it Wrong.

    I don't even know where to begin with addressing all of these assumptions. I leave it to better folk than I.

    D&D 5E (2014) The Fighter Problem

    You're telling others not to think in a vacuum? Awesome! BTW, what's the paladin doing for the round, in the face of that hill giant, other than laying hands upon himself? And I'm sure that hill giant is going to take a round off as well, right? Gentlemen's agreement?

    D&D 5E (2014) The Fighter Problem

    What level does his personality kick in? I've seen good halfling fighters over the last few decades. A few evil ones, too. But mostly a boatload of neutral ones!

    D&D 5E (2014) The Fighter Problem

    Aren't opinions grand? If only there was some sort of objective benchmark, to base such a claim on, we could get somewhere productive... Darnit! You got me again with that nebulous "better" tag. Well played. If only real things like action economy and/or rest recovery mechanics were somehow...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Returns to Monthly With Some Revised Subclasses

    Personally, I also think a fightery monk is probably more mechanically interesting than a monkish fighter. But that may just be me...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Returns to Monthly With Some Revised Subclasses

    I enjoyed using the Trick Shot flourish as well. Sad its gone. But I get why. I'm figuring to just say round up. So 1 or 2 squares for the most part. With your odds of getting the 2 squares goes up as your inspiration die size increases. And at 15th-level+ you have chance for 3 squares.

    D&D 5E (2014) The Fighter Problem

    Why ironically? Sounds like it has the potential to be a fun character. Of course, I tend to include a bit more "concept" in my "concept", other than race/class/powerz! But to each their own. It is my honest belief that you would find a lot less problems with 5e if you stopped treating it like...

    D&D 5E (2014) The Fighter Problem

    Again. There are class abilities that can be better than a feat in some circumstances. But I would caution you that whatever same feat you are denigrating, as inferior in the moment, will be "better" than the same class ability you are championing in other circumstances.

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Returns to Monthly With Some Revised Subclasses

    I don't see how it qualifies for such a descriptor. Correct. Just like EKs can't engage in Extra Attack when using War Magic. Which is probably even more common than a bard using an inspiration die to flourish, by my (rough) guestimation. You should have tried playing it in its previous...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Returns to Monthly With Some Revised Subclasses

    Having played a bard of swords for a while, I'm glad they addressed some of my issues with the subclass. Not necessarily in the ways I expected. But at least they acknowledged some of the problems with the original version.
