That's about the level of optimization that I do, but I also take things depending on the RP flavor I'm going for even if not mechanically optimized (e.g. Crown of Madness:LOL:)

The fact that you're asking all these questions means you haven't read neither the 1E nor the 3E campaign books. That's fine...BUT, the FR wiki is out there and it sources from the campaign books. All this information is sourced there. Btw, here is what it says about trading: "The city was the...

Yep. 40 miles of farmland outside the city walls, plus 60 miles beyond that of smaller settlements for a total of 100 miles. Lets also not forget that one of Waterdeep's main exports is fish since they're a coastal city

I thought it was up 3% Edit: nvm, that was MTG

"The City of Splendors laid claim to the surrounding lands for approximately 100 miles (160 kilometers) beyond its walls." (p.299, FR campaign guide, 3E). Waterdeep is an Oligarchical City-state; it rules itself and the territory it controls (100 miles beyond its walls). It controls a massive...

Then take it up with Ed Greenwood--the creator of the Forgotten Realms setting--who decided on this and put it in the 3E campaign book. Pages 177-180 if you happen to have it However, keep in mind that Waterdeep is one of the riches city-states in the Sword Coast, and that the Forgotten Realms...

Speak of the devil and it shall appear; there's already a video saying that D&D sales are underperforming for WotC.

Don't worry; someone will somehow spin all of this as the 2024 PHB IS underperforming, or another WotC scandal getting worse On a serious note, selling 50% over the anticipated numbers bodes well; I just wish they gave a concrete number on physical sales vs digital only

Calimport includes both the slaves and the surrounding areas, but the population inside the walls is around 200k

Well, they do have the Spelljammer port, so it must be the Space Cakes

The 3E FR Campaign guide puts Waterdeep at 132k within the city walls and 1.348M in the surrounding areas outside the walls (pp. 178-180). It's not farfetched that the city has grown since then. The city is also home to the largest Spelljammer port in Faerun, so that also plays a role in the...

They count the surrounding areas outside the city itself. Calimport does the same

We'll find out the actual numbers tomorrow since Hasbro's corporate earnings report is supposed to come out tomorrow. We'll see if some of these content creators saying it's not selling we're right or not. Scratch that, they might continue quadrupling down regardless.

If he is the only layoff, then it looks to me like it might be related to the NDA incidents in August. Sometimes taking action takes a while depending on legal hurdles, which might be why we're finding out now. I could be completely wrong though, but that's the optics I get

Is it? Waterdeep is the largest spelljammer port in FR, and one of the largest trading hubs in FR too. I am operating from the video, which only says you can get those kinds of items at places like Sigil and the City of Brass

Basically the new DMG suggests common items in towns, uncommon to rare in cities, and anything above that on large metropolises. Sigil and the City of Brass are not the only metropolises in dnd lore (settlements with population over 25k), it also includes places like Waterdeep and the City of...

I see what you did there Horatio Caine:ROFLMAO:

While I don't expect WotC to publish an Adventure in Greyhawk anytime soon (per the release calendar), I do think they might be coerced...I mean convinced to do so if enough player demand is raised. Although I have never played in the setting before, it does appeal more to me with it's darker...

Someone made calculations on reddit from Treantmonk's video but taking the Dual Wielder feat, and it looks like it fares better with that. Mind you, I don't know if this is right. Here is the link

Poor EB Warlock; guess it is now one of the worst single target casters?
