This is neither intended nor desired.

I never understood why thread necro was frowned on when the topic is evergreen.

I tend to give out much more magical treasure than "DMG normal" but I also use tougher and more numerous enemies. One thing I am very leery about giving out is +x armor though. I'll only use it if a frontline character is at a significant disadvantage in the AC department.

I picked Slow and Mirror Image myself, though I might go for healing spirit at some point (even the nerfed houseruled version our groups use). Wall of Force and Enemies Abound (Xanathar's Guide) are some options I'm looking at in the future. The latter is especially great at negating an enemy...

Thanks for the comments! I'm a little skeptical of Extra Attack being all that overpowered compared to other rogues, as the avenger will most likely not be dual-wielding (many spells have somatic components) and so will not be as likely to get that backup offhand attack to try for sneak attack...

Looking for feedback on this rogue archetype. It's a (mainly thematic) conversion of the 4e Avenger class. Rogue archetype fits it pretty well as a maneuverable, stealthy type. I tried to keep it comparable to the arcane trickster. I didn't go all the way and give them the ability to use a heavy...

Is this a big city thing? I have literally never seen anyone challenge anyone else's 'geek cred'

To me, that premise is a bit hokey. Getting physically sucked into the game is a trope that's been done to death. I also don't like the implication that your character is just you with some special effects. At least Jumanji goes to great lengths to make the characters something their players...

Echoing other comments here, I try to use it frequently, especially for remembering NPC names, overheard conversations, memorized maps, and the like. Much sweating of bullets ensues, especially when a character's under cover or infiltrating somewhere. That said, I plan on granting a bonus...

If the D&D movie wove an engaging tale that occasionally pulled away so that you could see the players' reactions to the events unfolding, similarly to how The Princess Bride was set up, it could really work. The players don't need to be a big part of the story, but would serve to help connect...

Ran a fun 4e game in Dark Sun, which is on hiatus. The warlord and ranger class were an especially good fit with the low magic setting. The (low-level party) managed to acquire the Dark Lens, and they're terrified of it. They know they can't safely use it, and they know they can't trust most...

Isn't this thread about boosting weak subclasses, and not trying new subclasses? Myself, I'm a little unhappy with the spell school restrictions on the eldritch knight and arcane trickster, but I haven't officially houseruled either yet (no demand from players).

You want to stay in this game? Ok, but you're using a dice tower from now on.

Never heard the term myself until I started frequenting D&D websites. I always assumed it was used to describe a stereotypical hack & slash group that does little RP and largely plays larger-than-life, immoral fantasy versions of themselves who try to get away with whatever unseemly scheme they...

In your OP, the hyperlink takes you to the monster manual only, while the display text shown differs, and takes you to the handbook. You should split these up to two separate links. Enjoyed the monster selection, but found some pages don't render correctly in my chrome browser. For example...

[Alexa|Siri|Cortana|Ok Google]? What's the range of fireball? The range of fireball is 150 feet. Is this a thing yet? Because it's something i've been waiting about 5 years for. It also happens to be the only type of task I'd actually use one of those spyware assistants for.

Been trying to decide for weeks now how to houserule this one. I really like the idea of the spell, as it seems inspired by the 4e shaman's spirit heals. First, I would make it slightly easier to use in combat: Give the spirit a 5' aura, and let each ally who enters the aura or starts its turn...

Perkins simply borrowed Obama's time machine, since he doesn't need it anymore.
