    D&D 5E (2014) Traits, Flaws, and Bonds L&L May 5th

    That's the DM's fault.. Social encounters can be as dangerous as any combat encounter... hell, they can be worse. Aspects/traits/bonds/whatever SHOULD get the players in trouble, when used right create complications which can not always be defeated with a sword. Reward those choices, reward...

    D&D 5E (2014) Traits, Flaws, and Bonds L&L May 5th

    Go all FATE with them..... come up with some fate point system where the players can gain points if they follow their quirks/flaw/ect. Not hard to do.. If 5e is open I fully intend to write up a system with an expanded flaws system and put that puppy up on RPG now. :P

    D&D 5E (2014) Traits, Flaws, and Bonds L&L May 5th

    You should try doing both... I commonly do the same "big picture" story but I make sure to seed the campaign with subplots that take place along side the main story. Subplots are inspired by personality quirks, don't fight them.. use them, weave them into the story... side adventures now...

    Not quite, he was the original wizard... but someone how, along the way, wizards became only spell casters without a lick of martial training.

    ICv2 has D&D in third place after Star Wars

    Except it's not... I can tell you the announcement of a new addition KILLS sales of the older addition. we (paradigm concepts) where selling spell decks in the 3.0 days.. sales where amazingly good... the day they announced 3.5 our sales plummeted. same thing took place with Witch Hunter...

    D&D 5E (2014) Q&A: Mage Cantrips, Multiclass req., and the Psion

    well except the fighter does not have to fall back to a magic items to do there job, they can swing that sword all day.. 3 times a round (or 4) at higher levels... and they are still a fighter the wizard runs out of spells, and is suddenly not a wizard.. they are a 2nd class melee character...

    D&D 5E (2014) Q&A: Mage Cantrips, Multiclass req., and the Psion

    Sadrik if you think they are dealing more damage then a fighter with a weapon, your not reading the same packet I'm reading... yes it can deal some nice damage, but a fighter will out damage a cantrip every round. Giving them something to fall back on is a good idea, unless you WANT to see them...

    D&D 5E (2014) New D&D Next Playtest package is up (19/9/2013) [merged threads]

    Not at all because that fighter will get three attacks at his full attack bonus, adding his attribute damage to each one... and if he takes the two weapon fighting style, he will get 4 attacks at his full attribute bonus... that's +20 +weapon die +4 times more of a crit chance (if he takes...
