That was part of the plot from d3 from memory, diablo invades heaven and tries to corrupt whatever they have that allows them to be reborn. What they return as is an interesting question, would Maltheal see his time as the angel of death as a path to wisdom and return to his position as the...

I've never read it, but my general thought is that if a book is boring, I stop reading it rather than holding out on it picking up.

In earlier DnD it was definitely common to have mixed levels, I think when a PC died back when I ran becmi or 2e, they started with enough xp to be one level below the party average. With 3e onwards, it turns out that xp doesn't matter as much when everyone is on the same xp track. Not sure if I...

Skynet the courier company? They've been around for years!

Watching the d4 trailer where she forms from the blood of those slain was pretty awesome, absolutely horrifying. One of the side quest chains follows the path of Elias and the others in the clip as he goes to summon her. I think the side quests are great for snippets of lore, though I don't...

It was better after they released the expansion, before then I'd only played through the story of the base game then I quit because I didn't find the gameplay very fun.

Maybe even purple dragon knight as a title; as an example, background could be urchin, class could be ranger, position and title could be purple dragon knight. Then the pdk subclass just becomes the generic name of banneret. Maybe it calls out that many pdk fighters choose it.

I selected all 3, last game I played I was at the DMs home, I've also run games at their home, and we often play at a bar when it's closed.

This might be the first kickstarter in a long time that I back, I love diablo though I have more fun when my friends play and they've sadly given up on d4. I'll be keeping an eye on it, even if I don't back it, I'll likely pick it up later.

A friend asked me the other day if I was interested in Cosmere, I needed him to explain what it was.

Which is a shame, because now you're limited in the characters you can use barbarian to define. One of the concepts I had for a character ages ago was that the rage was just a power up, sort of like going super-saiyan or gaining a battle focus that lets you dish out more damage without getting...

I'd say ask your DM if you can add the bonus action rule back in. You're ending a limited resource early to use another limited resource, sounds fine to me.

Every now and then I think back to the cartoons I watched in the 80s, a lot of these I remember but a lot I'd have not thought of if this playlist didn't already include the intro for them.

I think a 16 is fine, I'd even accept a 14 if starting high level.

Maybe it was an oversight, but you are correct, there doesn't seem to be a way to end it early now. I'm also now realising that they can't rage in heavy armour which isn't new for 2024, just something I never noticed as I rarely play barbarians.

I think it's only really ramped up in importance in 5e. 3e, damage was still based on strength and you needed a feat to use dexterity for hit bonus. 4e it was just another attack stat which was tied to class powers so it didn't matter as much.

True, but in this case where you're starting at high level, it seems a bit power gamey. Fine if you want to do that, but I think I'd require some investment in strength.

I like the boosting items, though like you if they are playing a warrior and choose to go 8 strength and replace it with a belt or gauntlets then I'd likely veto that, they should at least have a decent beginning strength with the belt being "found" during their adventuring career.

You sound more organised than me, I'll often start a campaign with little to no idea as to where it will lead. The last one I ran (quite some time ago now) had events that would unfold that players could get into or ignore as they wished. First few adventures led into something that was more of...

Depends on the players. Are they power gamers or just there to have fun. I think in just a regular game of players who don't spend a lot of time online checking builds, that samurai player would be doing fine and the group would be having fun.
