    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana May 2018: Centaurs and Minotaurs

    Can we have an explanatory video where the cartoon centaur exclaims "I'm a monstrosity!" please?

    6-8 Encounters a long rest is, actually, a pretty problematic idea.

    I never paid attention to those guidelines, and chances are you'd be OK ignoring them as well. If the party is just exploring a ruin with nothing pressing them for time, there's no reason they shouldn't be as safe as possible, and trying to artificially boost encounter numbers is silly. On the...

    Concealment Confusion / How to use Fog Cloud

    Use the fog cloud to divide your enemies while your group concentrates on one half of them. If the other half wastes a few rounds moving to an improved position, it's worth it.

    Change a letter, ruin a spell - Xanathar edition!

    Abi Dalzim's Horrid Kilting: Removes all pantaloons and breechcloth within a 60' radius and replaces them with ill-fitting, drafty kilts. Permanent.

    Change a letter, ruin a spell - Xanathar edition!

    Hatnap: Enlarges a hat to enormous size so that the party can rest safely within its confines. Chard Monster: Conjures an enormous leafy green shambling mound that is rich in vitamin A, K, and C. Yawn: Immediately ends your concentration, and then next round interrupts the target's...

    How do you make a Barbarian interesting? :)

    Make it a gnome.

    D&D 5E (2014) What armor can druids wear? Is there a way to get a decent AC?

    Thread necro but hey it's an evergreen topic. I usually let druids find/make some wyvern or hydra scale armor that's equivalent to half plate by level 5-7. Bonus if they can find a suitable creature and save on materials.

    D&D 4E What Aspects of 4E Made It into 5E?

    Still call it bloodied. In fact we still usually use the terms "standard actions," "minor actions," and "healing surges" even though I think by now we've been playing 5th longer than 4th now. Several of the players still think standing up provokes OA and you can't use reactions on your turn...

    Drizzt Do'Urden Poll: Love Him Or Hate Him?

    Drizzt I don't have any problem with. It's Salvatore's many pun and cringey character names that set my teeth on edge.

    Anyone else tired of the miserly begrudging Rogue design of 5E?

    It seems to me if you want to be a rogue that's more focused on combat than skills, you spend most of your levels on the fighter class.

    RPG Evolution: Do We Still Need "Race" in D&D?

    As an ogre IRL, I prefer the term "flavor"

    The Derp Snake

    Permanently crossed eyes, and general clumsiness, giving disadvantage on Perception checks and Dex checks. Edit: Didn't read the OP, oops. Player re-rolls secret initiative each round, but doesn't know when they go until their turn comes up.

    D&D 5E (2014) As a DM what spell / ability do you find most annoying?

    Counterspell. That's the only thing my groups have agreed to nerf so far. Eliminated in one group, requires a readied action in another.

    Congenio's Ritual

    Independent of this thread I was thinking about just making stones take up one attunement slot regardless of the number you have. They aren't exactly common IMC.

    The 5e Flaws list, my editorial changes (to correct flaws in the flaws)

    It seems to me the flaws system is meant to encourage and reward roleplaying for beginners, rather than be a straitjacket for the DM to exploit. PCs aren't required to follow their flaws blindly, but they are a strong indicator of how the player decided their character should act.

    Pathfinder 2E Paizo Announces Pathfinder 2nd Edition!

    WotC ought to be quite flattered, I guess. They've cribbed all the best parts of 4e and 5e.

    [UPDATED] Most D&D Players Prefer Humans - Without Feats!

    I wonder what % of this data was drawn from D&D Beyond, where feats are largely inaccessible to free accounts. That would also skew the numbers toward the basic races of human, elf, dwarf.

    Homebrewing a Starting Magic Item

    I was under the impression it didn't dispel or counter the original casting. It just lets you learn/prepare up to 3 additional spells if you meet the conditions. Nor does it give you free slots to cast them. Maybe a little strong for an uncommon but seems fine. Definitely stronger for classes...
