    D&D General The 10th level 2024 Monk can do 3 attacks with a BA, but only 2 with an AA

    I play a Dance Bard Lvl 15 Character, more for flavor reasons than min/maxing and he is very fun to play. The AC is nice and the Initiative Bonus really awesome, but the Unarmed Attacks are nearly never in play. I always seem to lack Inspiration Dice to spend it for the reaction move (rather...

    Does Anyone Care? (Cosmere RPG)

    It's fast and intuitive (especially when you know D&D) but not much that stands out, except the "Race the Stakes" die and Initiative/Action System. So it's serviceable by staying mostly in the background and it has good support for the feel and features of the Stormlight Setting. I have only...

    Origins Awards' 2026 TTRPG Finalists

    Wow, time flies. Could have sworn I got it last year :P Then it's high time that I actually bring it to the table it (get way to distracted by new stuff) :) Btw. of the list of nominees, I played Daggerheart and Cosmere (just yesterday) for a few sessions and can recommend both of them. I also...

    Origins Awards' 2026 TTRPG Finalists

    I'm surprised that Draw Steel is not in the list, it was one of the most popular and successfull launches last year. Anyway my pick would have been Nimble, which is also missing. Other notable missing RPGs are 13th Age 2nd Edition, Swords of the Serpentine and Vagabond (I'm not sure if that...

    D&D's October Product Revealed to Be Stranger Things Tie-In

    4 Level 1 Characters vs 3 Gnoll Warriors would be an exact Medium Encounter. 75XP Budget per Character vs 100XP per Gnoll. But of course first level is always more difficult, on the other side the new Encounter Table worked quite well for us so far. Is there any midigating factor in the...

    D&D General Beyond Maps/VTT

    The Maptool from D&D Beyond is now on the Free-Tier 8D It sadly has one big limitation, that you cannot upload your own maps except for the Master-Tier Subscription. But there a lots of free Maps and you can use the ones from Adventures/Books you have bought. Overall a nice addition to the...

    Dungeons & Dragons: Heroes of the Borderlands - First Impressions

    I like the components, but I had more hope about the Adventure(s) especially since they said it is replayable. I thought that they ment that there are randomized elements in it or something like that, but that doesnt seem the case. Since I didn't like Cave of Chaos (I tried it in the 5E...

    D&D 5E (2024) Fireball Vs Chromatic Orb Late Tier 2 Thoughts.

    Command ist awesome, but it cannot be extended since it doesn't have 1min or more duration.

    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    You mean the dragon, the size of a Tiger that can Fly and spew Acid? Thats dangerous as f***! :P

    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    I hoped that the red border and the Title on the lower side is a mockup, but the Dragon Delves Book has the same Layout.

    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    Ouch, I really dislike the first one The Artstyle, the Font and the Red Border really bother me.

    D&D General Boots of Striding and Springing

    At least I am not the only one unsure about that Item ;) Thanks! 8D Btw. I find it actually quite powerful. I could have also taken Boots of Flying instead, but the extra 20 feet Movement (10feet for 30 feet jump) and "always on" without any action requirement makes it quite nifty.

    D&D General Boots of Striding and Springing

    The first paragraph of Boots of Striding and Springings says: While you wear these boots, your Speed becomes 30 feet unless your Speed is higher, and your Speed isn’t reduced by you carrying weight in excess of your carrying capacity or wearing Heavy Armor. The first part confuse me a bit since...

    D&D General How Do I Help Mentor a GM Making Rookie Mistakes?

    I would try to refrain from coaching. Let her learn her own style and let her make mistakes. Except if she explicitly asks for it. BUT you should have fun too, so do speak up if there are things that makes the games unfun for you as a PLAYER. Don't start to nitpik or trying to tell her how you...

    Rules Lite TTRPGs for July

    The First Encounter Link is wrong, I think it should be https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/firstencounter/first-encounter-rules-lite-rpg :)

    Shillelagh - Why no scaling?

    Combining them ... interesting thought. But is it really worth learning two cantrips for that?

    Shillelagh - Why no scaling?

    Sadly it still scales badly. True Strike is simply better, it adds a d6 per Tier and is also more versitile (every weapon, including ranged).

    Sigil, Wizards of the Coast's VTT, Officially Launches

    I had never seen a site/service that needed more than one type of authentification .. and most of these sell stuff and save your progression (like shopping cart), so I don't buy that argument. I rather think that they pushed its release before it was ready (like so many other software/sites). :P

    Sigil, Wizards of the Coast's VTT, Officially Launches

    It needs a Wizards Account even when you log in with Google (Apple, etc.). Why??
