Sounds like a suggestion for something like taking Exhaustion levels once you are at 0 Hit Points. Either one per round or one each time you are damaged. At 6 levels there is death.

Funny enough, in all the games I run (no matter the system or setting) I have decided that merfolk are a combination of humanoid and dolphin, not fish (considering the tail orientation and movement). Then there also exists larger versions of giant+whale.

Playing this combo in a game right now. Having fun so far.

This is one of the view UA where I like all the presented material. Phantom seems a bit weak, the extra sneak attack should be done each turn. It tracks with most other rogue classes where they get an alternate way to use sneak attack. Honestly though, each new Wizard subclass really makes me...

The more Wizard sub-classes they print, the more I wish the Wizard had a two factor leveling. Much like the Warlock has Patron and Pact boon, Wizards could choose their School Specialty (or generalist) and their Sub-class. A Diviner Onomancer would be a different character than an Evocation...

For the Lurker of the Deep: I'm not particularly fond of the patron's spell list. Seems to me there is too much reliance on thunder/sonic/lightning damage. Those all seem more appropriate for a Storm based patron, not deep dark cold patron. I would remove thunderwave, shatter and lightning bolt...

I think I'm going to use this as well. I had originally thought of just allowing anyone two use two-weapon fighting and basically get an additional attack with the off-hand without requiring a bonus action. But I like the trade off of needing the fighting style to basically do it better and its...

I've been doing a lot of work to change many of the feats so that any numbers are changed to be the character's Proficiency bonus. For the next campaign I'm also going to change Durable and Tough to put them into one feat with the following change. Durable - You gain +2 hit points each level. -...

In my game, the players got their hands on a bag of beans and not knowing what it did, they planted one. Out pops a pyramid. I wanted to make them tackling this pyramid to be a memorable and epic event. So I turned to Tamochan in the book and started them on it. After one session I knew I had...

I've always been of the opinion since 5e came out that if a feat provides some kind of numerical bonus, then that bonus should be tied to your character's Proficiency bonus. To that end I've change several of the feats to do this. Weapon Master is one where I plan to do this as well and give +...

$6,969,696 The Scanlan approved amount.

Once you defeat animated armor, doesn't the magic in it dispel?

As a fan of Critical Role....I have the exact opposite problem from the original poster.... As a background, I've been DMing (D&D as well as many other games) for 25 or years before the first episode of Critical Role even went up. And I've been gaming with the same group since the mid 90's...

Replying to get notices of updates....

I've been working on something a bit similar (although yours is vastly less complicated) where the amount of healing you get is all based on the level of your accommodations (Wretched, Squalid, Poor, Modest, Comfortable, Wealthy Aristocratic) where you take the rest, for both short and long...

I've never found using maneuvers to be overly complex, but of course that may be just me. I understand the desire to "keep it simple" with the Champion, but our group finds it far too simple and kind of boring. No doubt fighting styles are great. I would not get rid of them at all. Hope my...

Yeah, confirmed in a big way, nearly getting a TPK.....!!

My belief is that all fighters should, at 2nd level get Maneuvers and Superiority Dice (just 2 d6 to start with) and then as they level, they should have a choice of either an ASI at 6th and 14th levels, or an additional Maneuver and Superiority Die. The Battle Master would of course gain more...

Right. It was 3e, 3.5e, 5e....just like that, no 4e at all. :)

The specific category of feat is not what I'm concerned with, rather I'd like to see feats that use a mechanic they came up with in a previous feat UA. That of, if when you have advantage and both dice come up a success, something special happens. Apart from that, weapon feats that don't add to...
