    D&D General Mike Mearls' blog post about RPG generations

    Yeah... Character generation focus is a 4th generation 2000s thing! Certainly not the focus of AD&D 2e's Complete series of: Book of Elves Book of Humanoids Fighter's Handbook Thief's Handbook Wizard's Handbook Psionics Handbook Priest's Handbook Book of Necromancers Bard's Handbook Paladin's...

    D&D General Barbarian - Best Damage

    Path of the Giants Barbarian + GWM + PAM + Sentinel. You become Large Size (increasing your weapon's damage to 2d10+Str on every attack IF you draw your weapon after you Rage (before that it's 'worn')) and when you throw weapons you deal rage damage. PAM + Sentinel gives you a 15ft reach since...

    D&D 5E (2024) Simplifying Dual Wielding in 5e-2024

    Simpler house rule: Hand Crossbows don't require a free hand to load because it looks cool and mechanically it's not significantly different than drawing and throwing daggers. Also you can off-hand a hand-crossbow 'cause I say so. Nick and shoot to your heart's content.

    Level Up (A5E) Voidrunner's codex - 'Always Prepared' Maneuver, is this a broken feature?

    So lemme posit a thing: I use the maneuver and a bonus action to ready an action to make an attack as a reaction if I use my attack action against a specific target. I use my attack action against a specific target. Two melee attacks with a greatsword: Thwack-Thwack. I use my Reaction to...

    D&D 5E (2024) Effects that kill you at 0 hp

    Guyboy is the greatest player you can have at your table: A player who fully buys into the narrative and threats. It's fantastic.

    3PP Release New crowdfunding coming: Martial Artistry: A Compendium of Combat for A5e and 5e! (AMA!)

    Absolutely. I just haven't done it, yet, because of the two full page art pieces that're coming, since they'll push the whole thing out by 2 pages, somewhere along the line.

    D&D General Eberron Hexcrawl Help

    So... here's what I'd do: 1) Apply the 25 mile hex grid to Khorvaire. 2) Segment the map into a bunch of smaller region-maps which still line up to the 'world grid'. 3) Run your adventure in the appropriate region(s) 4) Use the Hex Grid not for a Crawl, but just for travel stuffs. With the...

    Level Up (A5E) New Esper Archetype WIP "Essentialist" (comments welcome)

    Yeah, pulling the augments from Chirurgery does seem like a very simple and useful structure. As far as not hindering you: You're trading Concentration for a Bonus Action on every turn with augments being rolled -every- turn. Also that bonus action is meant for your Mind-Strike to offset some...

    3PP Release New crowdfunding coming: Martial Artistry: A Compendium of Combat for A5e and 5e! (AMA!)

    Yeeeah... I'm less certain. There are no add-ons for this Backerkit. They include pledge questions to attach add ons automatically. Including physical add ons. I am so annoyed. I deleted the add-ons questions. Again. We'll see if things move faster. Once their review is done I'll do the...

    Level Up (A5E) New Esper Archetype WIP "Essentialist" (comments welcome)

    Well... my first thoughts are: 1) Borrow Essence. You gain the Body Manipulation Power, and the 'Burst' augment which allows you to make use of this power into a bonus action. You don't need the '1 round' function for it, at all, since it is an augment. Alternatively call it the "Lingering...

    3PP Release New crowdfunding coming: Martial Artistry: A Compendium of Combat for A5e and 5e! (AMA!)

    Nothing you can do, sadly, no... The way Backerkit is set up is as follows: 1) I sign a bunch of paperwork proving I have bank accounts and a product I'm seeking to fund. 2) I agree to terms and conditions based on the Stripe payment service and give them my banking info. 3) I build the...
