    D&D 5E (2024) Gunslinger Class (from Valda's Spire of Secrets) on DnD Beyond!

    I contend that the best trick shooter in 5e is the BM Figter, the best snipers are rogues or (especially Hunter) rangers, and the best magitech gunsmith is the artificer. Matt Mercer’s Gunslinger is just not as good as the Battlemaster at what it tries to do.

    Dark Horse Reveals First Dungeons & Dragons Comic

    Um…I’m pretty sure thicc is vastly more appropriate here than corpulent. She cute, and she thicc. It’s a good thing.

    D&D 5E (2024) Is There A New Sheriff in Town?

    Dagger and small dagger, at least, you get a damage bonus to your main hand while holding a small dagger in your offhand. Don’t know about gish support beyond like, rogue, ranger, and seraph, at least, all having the ability to choose both magic and weapon based domain cards.

    D&D 5E (2024) Is There A New Sheriff in Town?

    Huh, what I’ve seen seems like those archetypes playing pretty differently.

    D&D 5E (2024) Simplifying Dual Wielding in 5e-2024

    Monk/Ranger murders everything with TWF, but tbh I haven’t felt any lack of competence playing a TWF rogue or Ranger.

    D&D 5E (2024) Is There A New Sheriff in Town?

    D&D 5e isn’t declining, and everyone who picks up DH because of CR is already familiar with D&D 5e, so…no. And frankly, I doubt very much that a significant portion of D&D fans were, in fact, “awaiting innovative changes that never came”. The alt covers sold out fast and the normal versions...

    WotC 3% Of Hasbro's Workforce Laid Off

    Yeah I’ll take my ‘95 v6 Toyota t100 over any v8 ever made, but even it won’t be that useful enough years into a mad max apocalypse…

    Yeah, I know? It’s a game with a completely different aesthetic, goals, and thematic assumptions, it using the d20 skills and such is irrelevant to the point. Edit: maybe I misread the tone/purpose of your comment. If so I apologize. It’s early and I lack coffee, so my perceptions may be...

    D&D 5E (2024) [HOMEBREW] Ranger Ideas +

    Love this Fair Good. Love this What abt adding the die to attacks, rather than advantage? Love it Much better than current I prefer the Ranger to be inherently heroic, but if paladins can have oath breakers I guess rangers can have poachers. lol I like the subclass ideas

    D&D 5E (2024) [HOMEBREW] Ranger Ideas +

    Meant to reply to this sooner! That’s really cool. I do wish dragoon was used for mounted infantry and light cavalry in D&D though. Like I really want a dragoon ranger that has movement and mixed range combat features that are useful mounted or unmounted.

    D&D 5E (2024) [HOMEBREW] Ranger Ideas +

    So thinking about @Minigiant ’s ideas and these discussions in general, I’ve got a thing. At level 1 you choose a Primal Order. Each order gives you a spell. you always have it prepared and can cast it x/day without a spell slot. Order of The Mark (per PHB) Get Favored Enemy, add “you can...

    D&D 5E (2024) [HOMEBREW] Ranger Ideas +

    The worst thing about Ensaring strike is that it has concentration and a save every round. That’s too much. Anyway yeah make HM 2d6 1/round, and add a d6 for every spell level.

    D&D 5E (2014) Convince me that the Ranger is a necessary Class.

    Could be….im at work. Start a thread if you want and I’ll throw some ideas out when I’m free tomorrow. I think that we could make Favored Enemy one of several options with the same weight as FE, and make different subclasses double down on those features. Like the favored spell idea that...

    And if they do that, I think they’ll find that the industry fans largely despises that, and they’ll lose more than they save. But yeah…they’ll probably try.

    D&D 5E (2014) Convince me that the Ranger is a necessary Class.

    I get that, and I’m usually all for more classes with specific focus over broader classes. I just think that the Ranger can do what 90% of people want from it…but wotc just keeps doing weird nonsense instead of trying to actually do that. And maybe the solution is for the BM to be even more...

    Yeah I don’t get it. You want a mix, right? Like I wanna see more new young people on the D&D team, in large part because the core books were written primarily by two guys who have been making D&D stuff for longer than the youngest lead designer has been alive, so James Wyatt is really all the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Convince me that the Ranger is a necessary Class.

    The 4e Ranger was so bad tbh. I never understood why anyone liked it outside of white room CharOp power gamers. They can, or they can be simple and work with the rest of the design of the class. You just described what I described, using a positive tone instead of a negative one. Sure you...

    This is completely irrelevant to my post that you first replied to. Stop using my posts as a stepping stone to get onto your own soapbox.
