I wanted limited weapon proficiencies like ad&d1e you did not get every martial weapon etc . That made racial weapon types nice, the fighter had access to more weapons and as you leveled you got access to more weapons like in real life. Now I did not want the entire 1e weapon table like weapon...

My simple house rule you can make one extra attack with the off hand weapon per turn. Basically the same thing as the hunter's colossal Slayer

Call me old school oh wait I am darn but I only run custom campaigns. Maybe because when I first started there where very few if any campaigns. That was just how we played back in the day drawing out large dungeons on grid paper etc etc. I never get hyped for new adventure release

Have them go to and antiques store and find an old item and it have a hidden compartment that had a map. that leads to a secret passage on the ridge or to a building that was built over the secret passage. Could leverage a library also some obscure reference that helps find the passage is also a...

I find it funny I have no clue what darksun or ebbron etc etc. Was not part of my d&d culture. I came from d&d and 1e. Almost everything was custom dungeon crawls and a few generic canned campaigns. I have no d&d lore attachment absolute zero. I play mtg have no clue about lore or world's the...

Battlemaster would be better imo

Do not care period. I don't use canned campaigns so who cares. I pay MTG just do not care about settings just card rules and deck building.

Kind of funny the character he listed is Eastern flavor she only uses a 2h spear. By the way very good series now with out house rules the closest you can get now would be kensi monk and all except the leather armor works with the kensi mobile dex based spear and you could mix in battle master...

still can take spell sniper doubles the range and you can use booming blade and greenflame blade at 10'

Forgot one kill gnomes and all is right in the world

Both reasons some times for a theme build sometimes for damage. I love to to do damage focused around melee and if I am going for a specific theme i will stick to it and just and try to optimize the best i can around that theme.

Thats the biggest thing is planning your level dips because it can be a slog if done wrong; that is what I like about 5e Multiclassing has tough decisions on when and what to delay from asi's, attacks or a power

After I train my guys we never start at level 1 (newbies I start there after that we start at like 3 or 4) Sorry the first few levels is the most mind numbing boring charter play in 5e and there is no two ways around it and that is the DM

Yep adventure Time, had one in my game love the grass sword

If fun is making your dm have a headache Divination for the win Portent Starting at 2nd level when you choose this school, glimpses of the future begin to press in on your awareness. When you finish a long rest, roll two d20s and record the numbers rolled. You can replace any attack roll...

I would say I know Elric the best I read most of Michael Morrcock book's growing up. I know who Conan is but more from the Sunday comics with Flash Gordon and then the 80's movie; I never read the Conan books and only a little of the Sunday comics. I did not discover Drizt until way late and...

I think this is the biggest reason and why I think that it has had a multiple effect; I grew up playing D&D and 1e like 99% of my young years and a little of 2e in college but most was still 1e. Fast forward dad sitting there and young teen son finds old 1e Unearth arcana book he has on shelf...

I generally do rules as written with few minor house rules or changes.
