This is in reference to the AL ruleset, which: Doesn't allow Unearthed Arcana Doesn't allow Simulacrum to cast Simulacrum or spells which would duplicate its effects (technically this should mean a Simulacrum in AL couldn't cast Wish, but the guidance on Wish says otherwise, so shrug Anyway...

Goblin Slayer's definitely the closest thing that's recent, to the point that turning it into one is trivial. Rather than any specific franchise though, I'd rather see more isekai anime adopt an official dnd setting as the other world their main characters go to.

Most games may not give their characters days for downtime activities, but I would bet most games at least leave an average of an hour or two each day that could be devoted to such things. Which is why I would make downtime more flexible, tracking progression by the hour instead of by the day...

Just to note, while the normal Training downtime activity lets you only learn a language or a tool, the special Training downtime activity (from Marks of Prestige in the DMG) allows for learning skills or even acquiring feats. So with enough time (and availability of people able to train you)...

Sacred Flame for trolling people with holy light. Chill Touch because the idea of shutting even the highest echelons of health restoration with a humble cantrip gives me the most perverse sense of satisfaction. Magic Stone (No, I don't care that it's not on the list, it's an attack spell)...

Is buying/questing for a scroll of Mage Armor or asking a fellow wizard for a favor (or trade) simply not an option here? If not, you could also take Magic Initiate (since taking feats is on the table) and get two extra cantrips on top of a 1/day not spell slot using cast of Mage Armor...

The easiest (guaranteed) way to make money would be to offer spellcasting services to other people. Heroes' Feast, Raise Dead, Reincarnate, and Awaken are some good choices for immediate money.

If the wizard has time for multiple castings of simulacrum (a spell that takes 12 hours unless you're using wish to cast it), then said wizard has time to: Cast Simulacrum on self to create Sim #1 (12 hours) (This Simulacrum is only missing the 7th level slot you used to create it) Long Rest to...

How are you getting those maximums? Is the sorcerer twining themselves and their opponent during the fight? Because by the rules they don't have access to another person to twin before the fight and you can't make two copies of yourself through twinning.

The only competition that should be considered is the one that the most people actually want to participate in. What should and should be (for any satisfaction of fairness or propriety requirements) is completely irrelevant, unless the majority / plurality wants the most fair / proper...

No clue what you mean here, but I'll give it a go anyway: Distance All participants should state their preferred distance(s) in their character entry. When the participants share a preferred distance, that distance should always used as the starting distance for the fight. (When both...

They may very well be terrible suggestions, but they are suggestions. And I'd rather have options available (and have people ignore them) than to have any sort of default that'll have people not be interested (like say having magic items). "I would (or might) be interested in participating in...

On the first point, that's one of the reasons I suggest doing different divisions. For example, if I want to make a character with as little to worry about as possible while not being disadvantaged against other characters, I'd declare that said character used only the Basic Sources, had only...

@dnd4vr I've posted some suggestions of my own here; let me know if any of them are useful. Seeing that I never seem to understand what people are saying here (and assuming what people are saying is rude), can you provide clarification on this?

As far as conditions and rules are concerned, I'd make the following adjustments: Personally, I'd do multiple categories here, including but not limited to the following four: Basic - Player's Handbook, Monster Manual, & Dungeon Master's Guide only. Advanced - Everything in Basic plus...

You can have hit points and still be dead (gaining 6 levels of Exhaustion, being affected by Power Word Kill, reaching 0 Strength via the Strength Drain ability of a Shadow, etc.).

Changing the narrative description of a spell is a sensible change. Changing the triggering condition of a spell is not. I'm not the person who wrote Casting Time: 1 reaction, which you take when you see a creature within 60 feet of you casting a spell instead of Casting Time: 1 reaction...

How did you reach that conclusion from what I wrote?

Distant counterspell doesn't work; the trigger for the reaction requires you to be within 60 ft.

Well, that makes the post about the pr wizard's standard setup completely pointless to post. Doesn't really change my vote, though Bard's more even with Wizard in my mind in a no-prep scenario.
