    D&D 5E (2024) To Revise or not to Revise: What to do about the other Subclasses?

    The question was "which do you most want to see revised", I kinda wanted to see where priorities were and what everyone's top 5 are. TBH, I'd have preferred to do something along the lines of a poll for each subclass, with the options: 1. Revise and reprint 2. Leave alone 3. Make something new...

    D&D 5E (2024) What is your oppinion of 5.24 so far?

    Positive so far. I'm in favor of the changes made so far on the player's side, I think the 2024 classes have all seen significant QoL changes that will improve the table experience. I am hoping that we will see more of the same on the DM's side. Easier to run, monsters that can challenge the...

    D&D 5E (2024) To Revise or not to Revise: What to do about the other Subclasses?

    Argh, can't edit. The second Tempest should be Twilight, as it says it's from TCE - Tasha's Cauldron of Everything

    D&D 5E (2024) Printed 2024 Player's Handbook Compared with Other 5E books

    Chonky. Need to get another book shelf (general problem already, but the PHB will exacerbate it).

    D&D 5E (2014) What PC species should return for 5ed?

    Give me more out there options! Was so glad to see Plasmoids, give me more weird ones! I like my DnD to have the Mos Eisley Cantina vibe, so less Elven subraces and humans that aren't (Illumans, Elan and Azurin, for example) and more insectile or construct or plant species. Shardminds...

    D&D 5E (2024) To Revise or not to Revise: What to do about the other Subclasses?

    So ... there are a lot of subclasses in 5e. And it's certainly possible to use older subclasses with the 2024 PHB classes. And for myself, I'm hoping to see new content after the 2024 Core books come out rather than just rehash and reprint previous material. But ... some subclasses didn't hit...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Sorcerer"

    That's fair. The double Metamagics won't really kick in until after level 10 anyway, and more uses is good

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    I really liked playing the 4e Bard, which I played through to level 16. The hard hitting Melee types all took a feat that gave them a free attack when they got force-moved, and the joke became my healing spells were like "Cast Assassin" as I'd heal our Executioner Assassin, move him to a...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Sorcerer"

    Not just boring ... probably not super relevant. If I've got Subtle Spell ... I don't need to be applying that in the midst of a battle I've got my Sorcererous Rage up! I was hoping Sorcerers would get 3 starting Metamagics.

    D&D 5E (2024) Which subclasses “should” have been in 2024

    TBH, I don't know if I would make a change. I love having the Psionics in core now, each class got a good spread of abilities. And while I'd like a Storm or Divine Sorcerer because I think they need the work ... given that we have the Sea Druid and Celestial Warlock, I prefer not having that...

    Can't watch right now, is this purely art, or also talking stat blocks?

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    Treantmonk confirms it's full access to Cleric, Druid, and Wizard lists. Not sure on the latter, but UA verbiage is that every class now prepares spells, but still functions as in 2014. So they've eliminated the difference between "Knowing" a spell or "Preparing" a spell, but classes that...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Sorcerer"

    So, the Bard reveal also taught us that the Sorcerer, Ranger, Paladin, Bard and Warlock (and Artificer, once updated) spell lists are no longer lootable, ie, can't snip a spell from them with Magical Secrets or the Magic Initiate Feat. Overall, I think this is a good thing for most classes, but...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    I'm reasonably sure Arcane Eruption and Sorcerous Burst (the cantrip) will make it into the PHB. Less confident about Sorcerous Vitality, but I liked it. That said ... I did mean that I hope these aren't the only ones.

    D&D 5E (2024) Could we get a Bloomburrow (Redwall) setting for 5.24?

    I'd like animalfolk PC stats and Calamity beast stat blocks, some actual crunch, but you're right, there's a lot of stuff already here.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    So, if you want Eldritch Blast, you're gonna have to take a level of Warlock. No one is sniping Divine Smite from the Paladin. Hopefully the Sorcerers will be getting some more unique spells given that their spell list is also now protected. Overall, I do think this is better, in that it's...

    D&D 5E (2024) Could we get a Bloomburrow (Redwall) setting for 5.24?

    First Planeswalker Guide article is up: Planeswalker's Guide to Bloomburrow, Part 1 There's a lot here to like and a lot here that makes me interested in a potential campaign here. The Calamity Beasts are practically Kaiju in stature to the animal folk, there's a lot of interesting areas to put...
