Psionic Strike. You can propel your weapons with psionic force. Once on each of your turns, immediately after you hit a target within 30 feet of you with an attack and deal damage to it with a weapon... Unarmed strikes are considered melee weapon attacks but the unarmed strike is not itself a...

It seems like College of Swords is a viable edition to the "gish in a box" options for d&d 5e. Hexblade looks like its going to be a very common dip for bards, sorcerers and paladins. Divine soul mixed very well with paladin/sorcerer. For Int-based, EK and AT might want to take a couple of...

Anybody playing 5e in Queens? I am looking for something closer to home and on weekends (preferably afternoons). I am also happy to play in an online campaign and have participated in several over the years using maptools. About me: 35, male and relaxed. I'll play almost any character type and...

So we have a multiverse with all the campaign settings simply being different planets on the same material plane. And then there is the great wheel, which provides planes for every alignment. Where do the various gods of each world live? Would Heironeus of Grayhawk and Tyr of FR each have...

Out of curiosity how do you think this would work: At 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th and 19th level, all classes get an ability score boost as normal (+1/+1 or +2 up to maximum of 20) AND they also get a feat. At 6th and 14th levels fighters get a bonus feat but no ability score boost at 10th rogues get...

Hello, I am looking to scratch my D&D itch with a game on weeknights after work. I am happy to play 3.5, Pathfinder, 4e, or the new playtest. I am a laid back player and enjoy role-playing and respectful optimizing. I live in Jersey City and would love to play there or in Manhattan where I...

I'm wondering if we might see something like the Saga edition talent and power system in 5e: each class gets access to a variety of talents as it levels up. Some are exclusive to the class and some are available to anyone with certain prerequisites (in this case, maybe races, power sources...

Hello, I live in Jersey City (just across the river from NYC) and am looking for a d&d 4e game. Weeknights are best for me and ideally I could play weekly sometime midweek from roughly 7pm-11pm EST. I can also play on Sunday afternoons/evenings but only every other weekend. I'd love to play...

I'm looking for an online 4e game (maptools, the new d&di virtual tabletop, etc.) that I can play in on weeknights. I live on the east coast of the US so something in the range of 7-11pm EST would be great. M-Th work best. I have plenty of character ideas for each role and power source and I am...

Hi all, I'll be moving to Jersey City in early August to take a job in Manhattan. I'm looking to continue gaming on the weekends and am hoping to find a good group to play with regularly. I am 31 and just finished my PhD in sociology. I like to think I have good social skills and a good sense...

Whoops! Browser Settings Incompatible Mike Mearls has asked that mechanical problems (broken powers and feats, underpowered or under-supported classes, math fixes, gaps, problematic mechanics, etc.) be discussed and compiled in a stickied thread on the WotC character optimization board. Based...

Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Rule-of-Three: 04/11/2011) Hints of a shadow leader class. Also, why exactly can't they just issue errata for original assassin to make shrouds behave as the author ( @mearls ) suggested? It's not like they don't have to power...

Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Balance of Power) No strong conclusions but a good summary of the various ways in which "class balance" can be interpreted. Random aside: I've always wondered whether wizards/sorcerers/other casters could be given their...

Just a a thought experiment. The great conflict of the core cosmology in 4e is between the chaotic primordials and the great proponents of order, the gods. The primordials are beings of chaos, continually creating and destroying at a whim. They are not necessarily evil but they are capricious...

I didn't see this posted here on enworld, so I thought I would link it: http://diceofdoom.com/blog/2010/03/speeding-up-dd-4e-combat-morale/ I was impressed with the simplicity of this system. It looks like a good way to reduce grind. Along with the updates to monster hp/damage/defenses, it...

Sam Lipsyte: “The Dungeon Master” : The New Yorker I thought people might be interested in this short story in the most recent issue of the New Yorker. It follows a group of high school kids tormented by their friend, a sadistic D&D Dungeon Master. I'm sure this will spark some interesting...
