    Critical Role Wildemount: Most Pre-orders Since D&D Core Rulebooks

    For me? Because I don't care about CR or their setting information. I'd rather have ones that I do care about.

    Unearthed Arcana Class Variant One of the Most Popular UAs

    There was much to like in Class Variants. There was also much I disliked. It will be fascinating to see what gets implemented in the future from it. Does someone have the link to the stream where they talk about the response rate and levels?

    Critical Role Wildemount: Most Pre-orders Since D&D Core Rulebooks

    As I said... I understand that concept for THIS book. But its success is going to mean more CR products from WotC, and likely those will come at the slot/spot/expense of time & resources of other potential settings in the future.

    D&D 5E (2014) Clash of the Titans' Djinn as playable race?

    Why would he want to remove that? Do the Djinn in the movie eat? sleep? drink? I don't remember. I feel like if they've replaced their bodies with wood and other inorganic materials that they wouldn't need to eat/drink/breathe, but that's me.

    D&D 5E (2014) Clash of the Titans' Djinn as playable race?

    Not really for the race... Warforged seems like the best way to represent something like that with 5e mechanics. I'd probably lean to Warlock with the new Noble Genie Patron to double down on the djinn theme for their spellcasting, though any could work. I could also see re-skinning the...

    Survivor 5e Artifacts: LUM LUM LUM LUM LUM

    Vecna and his milieu have outsized representation on this list between the Hand, the Eye and the Sword of his lieutenant!

    D&D 5E (2014) "Shadowblade" (modified soulknife) - feedback requested

    It has a range of 30'/60' long and you're only going to get one attack with it per round since you have to use a bonus action to summon a new one for d8+Dex + potentially sneak attack. But if they use their Bonus action to summon the blade again, then they can't use their bonus action from...

    Critical Role Wildemount: Most Pre-orders Since D&D Core Rulebooks

    This is a digression, but what is the reference for that #? Given the sales success of the last 6 years I would think it would be much higher than $50M.

    D&D 5E (2014) "Shadowblade" (modified soulknife) - feedback requested

    True. I suppose I play so many games where stats are Standard Array that it colors my POV. I still don't think it's too out of bounds considering that it's a Subclass ability.

    D&D 5E (2014) "Shadowblade" (modified soulknife) - feedback requested

    I'd probably shift it to 1/Long Rest/IntMod honestly. For most Rogues, Int is a secondary or tertiary stat. For Soul Knifes it's almost certainly Secondary, but if they can get their Int to 16, having 3 misty step's per long rest doesn't seem unbalanced to me. I guess I'm assuming they're...

    Critical Role Wildemount: Most Pre-orders Since D&D Core Rulebooks

    I'm not surprised by this news, but it makes me a bit sad and comes with a sense of foreboding. I've read Matt Mercer's statement about this product not getting in the way of other publications/settings. I get that. But if these sales #'s hold up, then they are going to likely put OTHER...

    D&D General Old Campaign Worlds - What Have You Used And Why?

    Official D&D settings that I've played or run games in... Forgotten Realms Greyhawk Dragonlance Dark Sun Planescape Spelljammer Al-Qadim Ravenloft Masque of the Red Death Council of Wyrms Eberron - I was also originally opposed to this one but got over it and now I love it. I love them all...

    D&D 5E (2014) Wand of the War Mage, Rod of the Pact Keeper, and Saving Throw DCs

    Only with what @Henry noted about other spellcasters and their larger AoE's. Increasing the spell DC of a Sorcerer or a Wizard is potentially more powerful than for Warlocks. I'd be more inclined to just do away with the Rod of the Pact keeper and just the wand of the war mage in my game...

    D&D 5E (2014) "Shadowblade" (modified soulknife) - feedback requested

    That's probably fine. Are they going to retain the finesse, light properties as well? Either way I don't think it's too crazy. I might not let either of these versions be throwable. Maybe. I'm not sure how unbalancing that is or isn't in play really. That seems... pretty good. 1/2 IntMod/Long...

    Only the Lonely: Why We Demand Official Product

    Agreed. I mean... MCDM raised almost $3.5M over 2 Kickstarter's for Followers & Strongholds + Kingdoms & Warfare. I guess it's debatable if those are "player options", but yeah. Kobold Press' Deep Magic 5e compilation conversion garnered almost $250k and it is all player's option stuff...

    D&D General Questions Regarding the History of the Term "Psionics."

    Pretty good history of the word on its wiki page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psionics As it doesn't appear in either Oxford English Dictionary or the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, wiki is one of the better sources for the history here. It appears earlier than More than Human but not much...
