Why? Isnt the problem more the concentration (of hunters mark)? I think the ranger would have been better as a non caster. Half caster is just a lot more annoying for balance reasons. You must make sure that the spells ehich lack behind are still useful, but also that other classes which...

You mean for the other subclasses? This part of the beastmaster is the same since Tashas so that is wanted. (Beast still only has 1 action so you cant command it twice), but yeah the other subclasses definitly should have some errata to catch up. (Not saying hunter does not also have some...

"You can also sacrifice one of your attacks when you take the Attack action to command the beast to take the Beast's Strike action." so you can use hunters mark or another bonus action spell and do your action to attack to still grant the pet 1, or from level 11 2 attacks. So for the...

Do we need e mechanics for spellcasting single target attacks? One can also just describe an arrow as a magical flame. Also teleport does have some advantages over normal moving: 1. It does not attract attacks of opportunity per default 2. It can be done even if your movementspeed is...

You can also give up 1 of your own attacks for commanding the pet to attack. The pet also profits from hunters mark at level 11. So even then its 1d6 bonus damage. And on turns not needing hunters mark its an extra pet attack + 1d6 damage. (And depending on how the GM treats the 2 attacks...

What exactly is the (perceived) problem with the Ranger? If the problem is spirit guardiansy just dont use that/play with people who dont use that/eont allow it as a GM. Because I am not so sure why a 17 dex character should be able to solve that at level 11. Not only do you miss +2 to hit...

Nentir Vale. The points of light approach is great for playing. One can clearly feel that its specifically designed for Playing RPGs. Modern Game design applied to a setting. It has enough interesting hooks that you dont have to make anything up yourself, bur also enough empty space that you...

You pay people for reviews. For most parts nowadays reviews are just advertisement. Or at least for "previews". The only other way is to get lot of friends to post reviews on your stuff on websites where your product is sold (drivetheu rpg etc.) This is in computer games pretty common...

The answer to is is and should always be nothing. D&D is a group activity of diffetent people playing together. However, as a group, you can decide to pick as much raisins as you want. And of course as a DM (and as a player) you can search others wanting to play your specific homebrew, if...

DMs always speak as DMs even "as players". Because most of the time they are way more often DM and behave as a player the way they wish their players would be. Thats why I only consider feedback from non DMs as real player feedback.

I guess you are a GM? Well feeling different because it feels for most players bad. And yes its "more progress" because power level from level 1 to 3 doubles. (And then from level 3 to 5 doubles and then from 5 to 9 or so doubles again). The progression is way more extreme than later...

What? 5e used A LOT of optional rules. Thats per definition a "toolbox" allow the GM to pick what to use. It also has several different settings where one can pick. Also several different shotörter adventures instead of long adventure pathy such that you can oick and combine as you want...

Haha the funny thing is in D&D 4e we did (for strong attacks) and people called it suddenly unrealistic;) In the end combats in 5E and similar games are short. This matches well short fights in comics etc. Where a teleporter just attacks a small amount of times. I am sure if 5e had more...

Since most people play low levels in games like D&D it makes, as you said, sense to not have them wait too long for the fun. Also it does make a lot more sense to cap long range travel to paragon. To have heroic tier more local/confined and then in paragon tier gain a sense of range. Like...

Since you talk about homebrewing anyway allow me to give you another idea. I know making subclasses is easier but why not make a new class. But instead of a class focused on teleporting, having a class focused on "falling onto the enemy" like the dragoon in final fantasy. Like in this...

And I did point out 2 D&D like games already where this exactly is possible. Both D&D 4e as well as Beacon do feature "martial" characters aka weapon using characters which can teleport at will and can get bonuses from it. So this is possible in fantasy RPGs and it can well be that some...

i would not call level 11 halfway through the game. Most campaigns never go over level 7. And only a really small percentage go over level 11. So level 11 is more like "endgame". Also even from the experience, apart from the really fast levels 1 and 2, levels 3-7 (or 9?) take quite a bit...

When I did read your initial description I was thinking about the original 4E assassin. That one had a 3 square teleport at will (from one person to another). Unfortunately the other assassin in 4e had the "drop from height onto enemy" power (one of the ninja subclass at wills from...

Hi everyone, because it is Christmas and some of you might (want to) use some free time to play some Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition, I thought I share some material with you to make it easier. I made an 4E Encounter Building on a Business card as well as an updated MM3 on a Business card...
