    D&D 5E (2024) Which class is the most durable (level 1)?

    You cannot afford good heavy armor at level 1 though and the best you can afford provides the same AC as medium armor with a +2 dex modifier, or no armor with a 16 con and 16 dex. You're not getting Splint Mail at level 1. So Chain and Shield is 18. And Scale + Dex + Shield is 18, and Unarmored...

    D&D 5E (2024) Which class is the most durable (level 1)?

    He likely has the same AC as the fighter at level 1 though so why would they take more hits before rage happens? They will probably both be AC 17 though both could be AC 18 at level 1 if they push it.

    D&D 5E (2024) Which class is the most durable (level 1)?

    Barbarian. D12 hit die and max at level 1 means you will have the most hit points. Rage means you will be taking only half damage (or less) from attacks, while dishing out more damage than anyone. Your AC will be the same as the Fighter. You will likely both be AC 17 at level 1. Barbarian...

    D&D 5E (2024) Removing Concentration

    I'd be concerned about any DM doing that in the first place because it would be a sure sign they don't have enough experience with the game and are not understanding the severe ramifications of such a rules change. The entire basis of spellcasters is predicated on certain assumptions about...

    D&D 5E (2024) Can A Spell Caster Out Damage A Martial Consistently "Archer"?

    I think a true striking rogue has a decent shot at this.

    That sounds great thank you for the recommendation I will pass it along

    D&D 5E (2014) Adventures In the Astral Sea?

    Yes I am a player so no spoilers for the Astral Sea suggestions (please), just something I am passing on to our DM to check out. Thank you those are great suggestions!

    D&D 5E (2014) Adventures In the Astral Sea?

    We are about to end Tomb of Annihilation, which has been a fantastic adventure. Likely we're ending (spoilers ahead): We're going to intentionally put a bag of holding in a portable hole, create a gate to the Astral plane, and intentionally get sucked into the Astral Sea to escape certain...

    D&D General Why grognards still matter

    I don't see how you can read the original post and conclude that's the perspective you're responding to.

    D&D General Why grognards still matter

    1) I didn't read anything in his post that was "insisting" 2) I didn't read anything in his post that ranked a segment as mattering more, just that it mattered.

    D&D 5E (2014) HOUSE-RULE: Options for Two-Weapon Fighting

    Why not adopt the weapon mastery rules for a 2014 game? I think they're great. Very nice option that fits well in a 2014 game. I mean, you literally replicated one of them in your options list.

    D&D 5E (2014) HOUSE-RULE: Options for Two-Weapon Fighting

    Nick solved this issue. Just adopt it for your 2014 game.

    Spoilers Cobra Kai Final Episodes

    I love that in this alternate universe, my home is somehow the center of the world. It's absurd. They drove down most of the streets within a mile of where I live, showing places we have gone to many times, as if they were famous places when really only people who live here or grew up here would...

    Simple games for commercial breaks

    I can usually start and finish a complete game of Marvel Snap during a commercial break.

    D&D General Session Zero and Nobody Chose a Spellcaster

    They could use a Detect Magic in there somewhere.

    Basic D&D, Holmes Edition - a review

    Me! This was my first edition. I still have my very worn copy. My brother and I consumed that thing in 1978 or 1979. We did not find it terrible rules or convoluted.

    D&D 5E (2024) Wild Magic Sorcerer is Best Sorcerer Subclass

    It's stuff you won't use on most adventuring days. Great for a Wizard, but pretty bad for a sorcerer with how limited their spells are. When they could be swapped out, those spells were routinely swapped out for more general use spells. Mind Sliver is fine. Calm Emotions is too rare to be one...

    D&D Movie/TV Netflix Planning Forgotten Realms D&D TV Show With Stranger Things Producer

    It's a joke, in poor taste, but also inaccurate. None of these recent fires were in a forest. They were brush fires and not forest fires.

    D&D Movie/TV Netflix Planning Forgotten Realms D&D TV Show With Stranger Things Producer

    I found this list interesting. What were the most streamed shows of 2024? “Bluey” - 55.62 billion minutes “Grey’s Anatomy” - 47.85 billion minutes “Family Guy” - 42.44 billion minutes “Bob’s Burgers” - 36.8 billion minutes “NCIS” - 35.91 billion minutes “Young Sheldon” - 32.08 billion minutes...

    D&D 5E (2024) Paladins can Smite on Ranged attacks (with thrown melee weapons) now!

    I'd love to see a well constructed Rogue/Paladin dagger thrower. Smiting and sneak attacking with throwing daggers would be awesome in my opinion.
