Quick question. What is the equivalent of Yuan ti in A5e? I suppose you could not use the name Yuan ti for "WOTC are a prick" issues

Bladechanter feat has the two-weapon fighting style (apart from the e levels of wizard and fighter) prerequisite. My question is: is the fighting style prerequisite a fluff thing, or setting dependant or is it crucial for balance? I ask because a player of mine wants to do a dueling bladechanter...

The spike growth spell states, and i quote " A creature that can’t see the area when the spell is cast can spot the hazardous terrain just before entering it by making a Perception check against your spell save DC." Does the creature need to spend an action to search and thus make the check or...

I was building a rogue character (for fun) amd when I came to choose my tricks, I stumbled upon the following. Observer: You gain an expertise die on Perception checks and increase your passive Perception score by 3. Now naturally, if you have an expertise die, you passive already increases by...

Pleaae help.me.understsndnthis feat amd maneuver interaction. The deadeye feat gives you access to the ricochet maneuver, which let's you make your next attack ignoring cover on the target. All good, but the 2nd bullet on the deadeye feal also says that target with cover doesn't have an AC...

This is quite specific, so I'm kinda after help with RAW interpretation or maybe how others have ruled it (or, God forbid, designer's intention). The accuracy Bonus of the Ranger's trained accuracy feature reads "When you make a weapon attack, you can use your reaction to gain an attack bonus...

Just being sure i am not missing something... Let's say i have 9 levels in ranger and decided to take 2 levels in rogue. Do I get 2 new traditions and 2 maneuvers at my highest degree (3rd in this case) or 2 1st degree maneuvers? I think it would get 3rd degree maneuvers if I'm reading...

I came across the situation of the title, where a character with sword of wounding (Sword of Wounding | Level Up) was fighting a troll amd the player asked what would happen. I quickly said "you don't know, you notice the wound didnt close". I ruled that the regeneration didn't work but the...

Quick and dirty Would you allow the elf gift mystic rapport to fulfill the "...ally must be able to see or hear you..." of the Marshall commanding presence and rallying surge? Cheers

As the tittle suggest, I was at first trying to get the best maneuver to use, but after a quick read, I don't think any of them really qualify at all when you first get the feature. Let's first see the relevant text to pick the maneuver "In addition, when a creature uses your Commanding...

I may have missed in those, but I'm yet to see some new fighter knacks or rogue tricks or marshal lessons of war and the other equivalent features on the 3pp books or anywhere else. Is this a design space still to be explored? Gimmick some new knacks!

I was just rereading the ranger and I did notice it gets a lot of attack bonuses (from features like hunters target, trained accuracy and adversarial focus, all Stacking if im reading it right). That per se is not a bad thing, I'm just thinking if I can translate rant into damage somehow...

I got the message that A5e.tools is no longer available for non backers. I thought that the tools website was supposed to be open, but I can understand if not. Either way, I still have access to some parts of it, just not the full menu and individual spells and maneuvers and a couple.of.other...

I ve been told you cannot trade maneuvers "up" meaning trading a maneuver for another one with a higher degree. What about trading for a maneuver with a lower degree? Is that possible within the rules? Also, now stepping in the pantanous homebrew territory, would that be so awful to allow...

Did any of you guys found that rote memorization (scholarly excellence, wizard level 3) when used by "martial wizard" (essentially multiclass with fighter/berserk, what have you) is a bit OP with cantrips such as blade ward and true strike? They will be spammed every round. Even though blade...

I was thinking of allowing the Break Spell maneuver to be used with a thrown weapon within normal range. I think thrown weapons need some love, so I'm implementing some.changes to make them more appealing. Would this change to the maneuver be too much? Let me know your opinion

I am based only on the A5e tools, don't own the books, but I hope the rules writing is thee same on both. Isn't a 1 level dip in fighter too easy? And by too easy I really mean that you don't loose much progression in your base class (just one level) and what you get is more than worth it. With...
