So this is what class you've played the most since 2024 rules were published, using the 2024 version of the class. I included Artificer, but that has only been out a few weeks and playing the old Artificer doesn't count. It is also only what you have played personally, not what you have seen...

Like most people I thought these guys leaving would be a big blow to WOTC and D&D. Then WOTC published the Fearun books and Asterion and they really knocked it out of the part IMO. These are the best rules/suplements they have published since Tasha's I think. Is it because they turned the...

The new Background system is as screwed up as ever. Best example - Dragon Cultist Background which boosts Dexterity, Constitution and Intelligence and includes the Cult of the Dragon Initiate Origin Feat and of course that feat's main ability keys off Wisdom (and only Wisdom). 😖 This pretty...

I am working up a character who is going to be a Scion of the Dead 3 Rogue. I have some of her backstory together - basically she was intended to be sacrificed as a child but was saved by a group of adventurers right before she was about to be killed. As far as the campaign goes Bane works a...

I am playing a Tiefling currently Warlock 4/Fighter 2 in a game. I white boarded it before playing it and it seemed like it would work, and it has proven better than expected. The campaign is going to go to 20 and she will end a Warlock 4/Eldritch Knight 12/Bard 4 She is sword and board...

Ok we are in a Dungeon full of secret doors that you need an Investigation check to find. The whole party dumped Intelligence. We do have a Rogue that has expertise in Investigation, so he is pretty good at it, but he is out for 2 weeks. The rest of us have a -1. The DM lets us use other...

So one of my players came up with a workaround today in a game I am DMing. The PC is an Eldritch Knight 6/Sorcerer 9. He used a staff of fire to fireball a group of Gith soldiers and then wanted to use it to action surge cast a wall of fire to prevent them from closing/damage them if they...

I am playing a Halfling in a Darksun campaign. There is some class and subclass restrictions to stay in line with the setting (no Eldritch Knights, Sorcerers or Paladins :mad:) and some species homebrew (no halfling lucky, but I get Savage Attacks from the 2014 Half Orc and fury of the Small...

I was playing a game recently and an enemy Dragon cast Hypnotic Pattern on the party from far away (I will say about 70 feet, he was on the ground though). Three of the four PCs failed their save. My Dance Bard is the only one who passed. My Bard is a back-liner and is pretty fragile so this...

One of my players just leveled in Warlock to Warlock4/Fighter1. Prior to leveling he had Pact of Blade, Pact of Tome and Pact of Chain Invocations and a Quasit familiar. After leveling he swapped out Pact of Chain with Agonizing Blast-Green Flame Blade, but his Quasit familiar is still...

So I am debating which of these spells to get on a Eldritch Knight/Warlock at 15th level (11 EK/4 Warlock) as part of the Fey Touched feat. The Warlock uses a homebrew subclass that is not relevant. The idea is using Action Surge and Extra Attack and then using an action to cast either...

I am trying to put together a build for a Rage-Mage multiclass Zealot Barbarian/Abjuration Wizard/Warlock and I just figured out you can no longer end your rage with a bonus action in the 2024 rules. This is a big problem because if you can't end the Rage with a bonus then you can't cast a...

The Hand crossbow is a light weapon, so by the light weapon property if you attack with it, you can use nick with another light nick weapon, for example throw a dagger, as part of the same attack action (assuming you have mastery). However you also need a hand free because a hand crossbow has...

So I am playing a multiclass Green Dragonborn, level 19 is Fey Wanderer 12/Monk 1/Druid 1/Glamour Bard 5 S8 D16 C12 I8 W21 CH14. Feats are Shadow Touched (Wrathful Smite), Dragonfear, Wisdom ASI and Boon of Spell Recall I am debating whether to go to Ranger 13 or Bard 6 with her last level...

I am DM in a game and one of the PCs is a level 19 Eldritch Knight. Several things came up in play today, one of them is debatable, the others I am pretty confident I got right RAW, even though it is pretty OP. Situation 1: Party is fighting a bunch of Baelnorns (custom undead elf). The...

Buccaneer - A Dashing scoundrel who sails the seas Level 3 Poly Want a Cracker: You can cast the Find Familiar spell as a ritual without any material components. You can't cast this spell except as a ritual. Dead Men Tell No Tales: Once a turn you can Sneak Attack as a Rogue. Your number...

I am playing a low magic campaign which is not really my thing usually, anyway I am doing a Human Rogue-Monk, currently level 12 (7 Scout Rogue/5 Drunken Monk) both classes use the 2024 rules with the 2014 subclass features. She has grappler feat and man she is a fun kick-butt PC, rolling in...

One of the PCs in a game I DM is running a PAM/Sentinel Fighter. The traditional pole arm guy with a 10 foot reach. Bad guy approached and the Fighter made his AOO, dropping move to 0 or so I thought, as did the player. One of the other players at the table pointed out that the PAM attack...

Can you still use a feat when your ability score is already 20 in the ability you want to take the feat in? One of the PCs (Warlock) in a game I am DM for started with a 20 Charisma at level 1. They just turned level 4 and he wants to take the Telekenetic feat, but he can't take a Charisma...

Grave Cleric ability Path to the Grave reads: "Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to mark another creature’s life force for termination. As an action, you choose one creature you can see within 30 feet of you, cursing it until the end of your next turn. The next time you...
