    D&D 5E (2024) Thoughts on The Lost Library Of Lethchauntos?

    So we completed this adventure in around 5 hours. Group really enjoyed it lvl 1 and 2. Nice amount of skill checks and interesting interactions with regret and the summoning. Ran it mostly as is. Made Myrna a harper and Powel a Zhent. Awarded 2 reknown for the harpers after completing the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Building a High Damage Artificer?

    So I have a reasonably good idea on how to build a support/control artificer. How would you build a high damage one? Espicially early on before lvl 11. Doesn't have to be 100% focused on damage eg Artillerist can grant temp hp. Do you splash a level of something for weapon masteries...

    D&D 5E (2024) Cartographer May be Underrated. The Cheerleader A Build.

    So the cartographer has the reputation of being the weakest artificer. Im not sure about that as you have a few more options. For example the artilerist and battlesmith probably have other things to do with their actions. And may have to use spell slots to do their thing. Expanding on This...

    D&D General Any Dungeons/Adventures Recommendations (Netheril)

    So I'm after some content to mine. I've been going through various products I own. Here is what I have taken notes for. I've got the 1st 6 levels roughly mapped out. I plan on using various adventures to fill out various locations. Specifically after Netherese ruins type things and any plot...

    D&D 5E (2024) Breaking The Eldritch Knight (Eberron)

    So ive been keeping track of an Eldritch Knight I would play. Something new has been added to the equation however. Race Human Origin: Custom or 5.0 Origin Feats. Mark of the Storm, Magic Initiate:druid. Pick shillelagh, guidance whatever you like (absorb elements?) Class. Fighter:Eldritch...

    D&D 5E (2024) The Artificer. Class Review And Thoughts.

    So I thought I would do a review of the 2024 Artificer. Overall I think I like it more than the 2014 one. Generally I regarded the 2014 one as one of the weaker classes. It was good later on around level 9 or 10 but it took to long to get there. The "best" subclass was the battle smith which was...

    D&D 5E (2024) Artificer: Spell Storing Item?

    Fairly self explanatory. Level 1-3 spell cast X2 your int modifier. Can a level 2 or 3 spell just be an upcast lower level one? Eg lvl 3 cure 6d8+int? I was wrong RAW. Page 236 phb. How about RAI or houseruling to allow it.

    D&D 5E (2024) Lost Library of Lethchauntos AAR. My Magnum Opus Campaign?

    So thought I would run this adventure as our 1st 5.5 level 1 adventure. It potentially has a few nasty encounters at low level. I'm generally careful with things like Wargs and Hobgoblins but potentially had a 6 person party. Had 5 turn up. Player 6 migraines. Session 0 took about 1.5 hours...

    D&D 5E (2024) Where Are the Lost Kingdom 1501DR?

    So Netheril died but Mystra brought 3 cities down safely. Anauria, Asram and Hlondeth. 1991 Anauroch Boxed Set The map lacks a scale however and the Scimitar Spires. Orofin and Amazander are on later maps. Along withTower Hilithal. Phelajarama however was not. Except for this one...

    D&D 5E (2024) Best Blaster Now With the New DLCs?

    So theres been a lot of new material all come out in around a month or so. The leading contenders were probably Dragon Sorcerer and Light clerics. Sea Druid, Invokers and Warlocks also have some options. In general these 4 spells are key imho Chromatic Orb Scorching Ray Fireball/lightning...

    D&D 5E (2024) One Year On. Warlocks How to Build Them?

    So as the title says. I have seen a celestial bladelock in play. But the player had a good weapon and used 5.0 material to pick up racial armor and spirit shroud. Personally I lean towards controller. Bladelock is to reliant on 5.0 material and multiclassing seems almost required for armor...

    D&D General King Maker: Netheril. Rate My Player Guide

    D&D 5E (2024) Shillelagh Eldritch Knight+Hex Post Lorwyn

    I've been aware of the Shillelagh+true strike combo for a while. And often thought about putting hex on an EK via fae touched. Also depends on how DM enforces RAW around spellcasting but arcane focus and warcaster take care of that if theyre strict. Weapon mastery prone, 14 dex use a bow of...

    D&D 5E (2024) Thoughts on New Bladesinger?

    As far as wizards go I like this one along with the illusionist. But its still a wizard. A few of you probably know my opinions on wizards. Theyre a D tier class that becomes S tier. My main issue with them the amount of time it takes to become S tier (generally level 10+). They're to limited...

    D&D 5E (2024) Rogue: Thief. Bonus Action Magic Item?

    So the rogue is generally regarded as one of the weaker "strikers" beyond tier 1. Rangers good in tier 1 at least. I'm currently in the putting togather a new campaign stage. One player is interested in ranger or rogue. From previous game im coming down the magic loot. I was fairly close...

    D&D 5E (2024) 1501DR Legacy Of Netheril and Purple Dragon Knights: Kingmaker

    So new campaign is in brainstorming mode. The very basic idea is Cormyr sponsoring the PCs to secure the Stonelands. The villains are Shar/Shades maybe the Phaerimm. Aumvor, Larloch, Ioulaum, the Terraseer and Karsus can also be involved. Grand tour of Anauroch perhaps. Dead magic zones...

    D&D 5E (2024) Class Tier List 1 Year Later.

    So here we are. Wrapping up level 13 main campaign this Sunday. I've ran and played a few others and one shot games up to level 12. The Tier List makes the following assumptions/criteria. 1. I'm starting from level 1-3 2. 12 classes at least 2 have to go in each Tier. 3. I value earlier...

    D&D 5E (2024) Bringing Back A Prestige Class?

    So after a bit of consultation with my players and new books not being available until 31st of December (probably post new years tbh) there might be a delay for new campaign. Very early days of brainstorming but big bads are probably surviving Shades and Shars faith in Shar herself. So...

    D&D 5E (2024) High Levels Problems. 13th Level AAR. Final Countdown

    So my campaign is wrapping up this Sunday. It took over a year to get to level 13 and the campaign was built off the foundations of Dragon of Stormwrack Isle. A problem of a year long game is player retention. Finding players is easy I can run 2-3 games if I want to. Getting the right players...
