    Quick question: A character is missing his right (master) hand after it was cut off during a combat. Now he can only hold his weapon in his left hand. What is the penalty for fighting with a weapon held in his non-master hand? Thanks.

    D&D 5E Dispel Magic, Ready action and Fireball

    Quick question: My wizard knows his enemy may cast a Fireball but he does not have Counterspell. Can my wizard take a Ready action to cast Dispel Magic instead (ie, enable him to take a reaction and cast a Dispel Magic to null the Fireball the moment the enemy casts it?)

    D&D 5E Revenant and cross-country

    I really like the idea of Revenant and intends to use one (or more!) to hunt the PCs. The MM says that a Revenant looks superficially like zombie. It is a dead (or undead) rotting body walking around looking for its target wherever the latter goes. The PCs are riding horses, taking boat rides...

    D&D 5E Bard's Powers

    Am I reading the rules correctly? One of my players is a Bard (College of Lore), attaining 6th level. With Additional Magical Secrets, he learned Fireball, Aura of Vitality and Bestow Curse. Suddenly he is a well-trained spellcaster throwing fireballs like a Wizard of equivalent level (with...

    PCs encountered a monster with permanent invisibility in a room. In order to find their enemy, the Ranger cast Cordon of Arrows. Q1: Will the arrows used in this spell auto-fly towards the invisible target? Q2: With 4 arrows, is it correct that each arrow flies out once per turn?

    D&D 5E Cost (in gold pieces) of Spellcasting

    I'm looking at the cost of spellcasting in the Adventure League Harried in Hillsfar and quite amazed at how cheap spells can be. Eg Remove Curse is only... 90gp? Raise Dead... 1250gp? Comparing to gears, a magnifying glass is already 100gp and a Plate mail 1500gp. What this is telling me is...

    D&D 5E No Living Statues in 5E?

    I'm using BECMI modules with 5E rules and one monster frequently appears in adventures: Living Statues. It can come in various types, eg Jade Statue, Steel Statue etcI'm rather surprised that 5E MM has no creature that represents Living Statues. I thought they should be rather common in dungeon...

    D&D 5E How fast do you play D&D?

    My D&D friends and I are working adults with many life commitments, such that we can only meet up for rpg on an average of once per 2.5-3 months. Each session is about 8-12 hours. From the last few sessions, we see PCs levelling up one level per session. With 4 sessions already into our current...
