I wouldn't get your hopes up that they move to Daggerheart for C4, though I'm sure we'll see some additional content using that system like they did with Candella. Unfortunately, like Candella, the system really just cribs from other, better systems, and is kind of a mess. If they stick with...

Did you look at it's list of spells for innate spellcasting or just the actions? In inate spellcasting it has DC25(+18) At Will: Counterspell, Dispell magic, detect thoughts, eyebite, fireball, lightining bolt, shield 3/day: chain lightning, create undead, hold monster, mass suggestion...

If you're looking for a solo for level 18-20 characters, you'll need to look at a CR 27-30 monster. Sul Khatesh (Eberron RftLW) is magic user themed and CR28, just change it from a fiend to a human. If you don't mind having some appropriate support monsters, I think the Arch Hag will do fine...

As a solo, level 14 (typically solos can be handled by a party of 4 at 1.5x group level)

I am glad it's there. I may not actually use the lore as presented in a campagin, but it's a wonderful inspiration to me as I put together adventures.

Got it, guess we just have different needs to run a sandbox, those things you mention are all things I do on my own. So from my perspective, sandbox play is alive and well in '24 (as it was in 14). The Dungeon Dudes Drakenheim setting for 5e sounds exactly like what you are looking for.

I mean, it's everything I need to run a sandbox. For me, a sandbox is a map with some thought starters, and then the campaign is created by responding to what the players do, who they get involved with, and what 'big things' are happening in the world regardless of if they engage with those or...

I ran a 2 year, 20 level sandbox using EGTW. I think campaign guides in general through the 5e lifespan are good rules support for sandbox style play, where the PCs pick a direction and go, choosing to engage or not with a variety of challenges the world presents. The Greyhawk setting in the...

Reminds me of great cute-ugly like:

Absolutely gorgeous art throughout. The Dragon Turtle piece is amazing, and I love that they've specified that Gargantuan creatures now have no upper limit on how big they are. Think they made a really good design decision to incorporate the traditional Lair Action abilities into Legendary...

Agreed, and with "The needs of the One outweigh the needs of the Many" as CG. Otherwise brilliant set of quotes!

Cow. Forever Cow.

I def go for an 80's action movie style for my DMing. That said, PCs can die if the dice dictate it or they make stupid decisions. Just last week though, my 4th level PCs playing in Infinite Staircase, ignored the warnings that the under layer of the Ziggurat was too much for them and pressed...

Chose yes because I roll in the open when I DM and prefer that way for games I'm a PC in. That said, it doesn't bother me if a DM chooses to roll behind the screen, I just assume that some rolls will be fudged if that's the case.

@pukunui thank you for that breakdown! That will def help, though I still want the ability to do that by campaign as well. I'll admit I may have gone a bit overboard with my rant (and that the original WotC solution would be bad for some players). It was definitely after September that they...

Hopefully we'll get to that point in the near future. Really just needed to get it off my chest, but if I had to pick, the new in-map encounter system is so great that I'll deal with the messy 14/24 interface for a while.

Rant/ Had an otherwise fantastic session last night that was marred by WotC's caving to a small but loud segment of the fanbase who pushed back on the original plan for DDB as the 24 rules came online (and I have a feeling that a majority of those voices don't even use DDB anyhow). I'm a HEAVY...

Pretty sure the 'flamethrower' was a wall of fire. What about the polymorph broke immersion? Because they chose a snail?

I was thinking Open Hand for the Monk as he knocked an enemy back off the bridge on a hit, but I'm not positive. As for those talking about how dark it was, I thought the same thing when I watched on my laptop, but later I showed my wife on our TV (put it in Filmmaker Mode) and it popped.
