Nothing the thread necromancy here (4 year old thread). I will echo this. I think the little bit of players having to not use info they learn for their own roleplay is far less of an issue than players bored because they can't even sit at the table and listen to what's going on.

All I can do is quote my own experience. Which is…the books aren’t a different enough to justify. When I think 3e vs 3.5…it felt like everything was changed. So many adjustments and improvements. 5.5 in comparison is just a lot less, and wasn’t worth re-teaching my players on the things that...

I don't know of any RAW that says that. I actually only know two other touch offensive spells: "Inflict Wounds" and "Shocking Grasp". Both of those specifically say make a melee spell attack. So there is nothing implied, its straight up written. Dispel Evil and Good has no such language.

One thing thats notable in Baldur's Gate 3. Devils can pop in and out of the world, seemingly going back to hell and then returning to the mortal world as they need to to conduct their business. But in 5e the vast majority of devils have no such capabilities. No teleport and no plane shift. So...

I also would not add an attack roll to break enchantment. There is none in the spell, and considering that breaking someone out of a possession is one of the key things to use the spell for (and I would figure pretty much any possessing entity doesn't want to be pushed out)...the spell seems to...

I would argue that a Paladin or Bard are the most self sufficient characters, they basically bring everything to the table. They can fight, heal, and brings all of the social skill power you might need.

It is? I figured that's the "interact with object" free action....though i think a lot of people would just include it in the bonus action to drink anyway.

And lets be honest, its not like movie armor is worth a damn anyway. How often have we seen someone stab someone with a sword right through their middle breastplate in a movie! I still think its hilarious that one of the best depictions of armor has been in the comedy A Knight's Tale of all things

I tell you the reviews are WILDLY divergent on this one. I've seen some think its amazing, others think it is literally the steaming **** pile of the summer.

It is an interesting question. With 5e supposed to be the "forever edition"....what does future dnd development look like? Perhaps they are taking a more out of house approach, maintaing the keys to the core pillar, but letting other houses develop and design for a time.

I hear you. Its all about expectation and context. First impressions are critical, and so doing a little dice fu behind the scenes to ensure a brand new player has a good experience is worth it.

While true I didn't see anything either, at the end of the day the goal is to maximize utilization of the "brand". As Spaceballs once put, "Dnd the video game, dnd the toilet paper." And to note I have no issue with that, its smart business to recognize that your brand is a far more powerful...

Beyond just the momentum of being a movie stable, its very easy to store (the seeds needed for a bucket of popcorn take very little storage room compared to the ultimate size of the meal), it lasts in storage a good while, and since its not a hot meal you can continuously make it without it...

Quantumania - Hot Garbage Gotg3 - Pretty solid, Rocket really gave you some big emotional payoffs in an otherwise silly movie. Secret Invasion - Hottest of Garbage. Loki - There are aspects of loki I do quite enjoy, and the ending is pretty poetic. But its also the worst of the multiversal...

hehe it won't :)

Boiling this down, the most key point is "Optimization becomes a problem in a group of non-optimizers". And that is very true in my experience. I've played with the group of players that want to just build the craziest thing they can make and then as a DM I am supposed to challenge them. That...

Old world isn’t civ enough for me on the list but I consider it the number 1 4x game to come out in quite a while

The very quick jist. The party is going to find a solar's flying sword attached to a special stone that can mimic a creature type (think a very power nystul's magic aura). So...the sword believes it is being weilded by a solar. So treating this as a legendary weapon but it won't do the full...

Continuing the fine tradition of Armageddon that's its easier to train non-astronauts to be astronauts than teaching astronauts other stuff:)

I think Ando had the opportunity to deliver that message but never quite got there. It was much more focused on these early heroes of the rebellion. If we had had one scene towards the end where some imperial higher ups note a large series of sabotages across the galaxy, much more than can be...
