I bet it won't be published by wotc. I'm at the point where my tolerance of being unsupported in service of Oberon based solutions is lacking

You made the anecdotal claim about GM's you've encountered, the plural of anecdote is not data. https://rpg.stackexchange.com/questions/70174/what-is-the-oberoni-fallacy

L I don't think it's the same target being discussed. 5.0 was so incredibly far from ithe 2-3/24hr target that any movement towards there will look like it was "kind of" achieved by virtue of being on the same planet as the target. With 5.5 there are still a lot of design elements standing in...

You seem to be arguing against too many people and mixing up points made by different people then blaming them for distracting you when they try to clarify something. The folks who cared about extreme backwards compatibility were a subset of the player base with a bonkers expectation that...

I said nothing of the sort and very much felt that 5.5 should have been more significant in its willingness to change. Absolutely no idea how you've gained the impression that I cared about backwards compatibility simply by confirming that there was a bizarre subset of the community with a badly...

There were so many arguments going on with folks who thought that the edition was totally incompatible if there was going to be any changes and eventually folks quit trying to correct expectations when it was clear wotc had zero interest in support heir efforts to so. I don't know what part of...

No there were literally people supporting the level of strictness that @Desdichado described with backwards compatibility and the most frustrating thing about it was that wotc doubled down feeding that level of misplaced expectations by continuing to talk up how important they felt backwards...

I think that if these sub-30$ setting books are simple paperback/digital things multiple players at the table feel justified in needing enough to justify a normal volume where it's common to see 2-3 of them per average 3-5+gm player that that they could go even further than that. A. FR game set...

Agreed, 5.5 ultimately failed both groups. Folks who wanted substantive changes improving quality of life rightly shake their heads at all the obvious failures at doing so. Folks who were sold a marketer's wet dream version of backwards "comparability"that was more like an overinflated hyped...

I kind of agree. A setting book needs enough gm & player support to build characters that fit the setting's baseline themes and tone while supporting the gm in running a campaign atop the foundation of those themes and tones with enough lore but not so much lore that the players feel...

That sounds a lot like some flavor of Oberoni fallacy. If not, can you quote a rule that puts this apparent house rule into place given the spell already mentioned by others to grant one? Even if for discussion we grant the idea that it's somehow impossible for any players ever to take more...

I wouldn't be surprised if they drop the ball like that but eberron really needs some changes to the base rules (ir chargen, magic items expectations & so on, maybe a new death & dying to circumvent "just kill me"->"I can't"∆). The rules expansion doesn't need to be extreme, even some optional...

Interesting. I hope to see some hype about the rules part being expanded

That's probably a good guess given the apparent boromir halfling(s) and whoever those are on the far right bNot quite villains with eberron's znir pact gnolls though. They are pretty much a culture semi fiendish private military mercenaries. Their lore is that they broke away from one of the...

I'm not entirely sure that the red head/brunette on the left is a dwarf. Looks somewhat halfling in build and eberron has very distinct halflings (boromir mafia types and blade desert dino riding tribal barbarian types). The leather armor and those heavy duty riding gloves kinda lean that way...

The wizard and sorcerer don't have enough high level slots to recklessly spam an effective fireball without eating into their effectiveness over the session... Warlock changes that math in tier3(level 11) & beyond when they are throwing out 3 level 5 fireballs right out of the gate plus an...

Weirdly came across the his under what's new and figured I'd drop in what I've been doing since covid. So far I'm down almost 80 pounds from walking in the pool with water resistance gear from aqua strength and hoping to kick off the last ten or twenty before next year:)

I think that you need to explain how anyone capable of playing d&d without "hey guys my 5 y/o is going to be playing with us so I'm going to be helping them with their sheet" is capable of finding "that was my first or attack so I added the first number and this is my second attack so I add the...

I don't know think I've seen any of the artwork that you are referring to but eberron has some setting specific giant birds. Since I can't remember which was official (dragon hawk & arrow hawk maybe?) & which the community made here is. Link to a couple varieties...

You are claiming that there is a higher volume of math needed during a player's turn with the iterative attack penalty... the only way for that to be true is if you are talking about a house rule or failed so badly at reading the printed rules that you have players refusing a single d20 roll...
