    Waterdeep: Dragon Heist Hot Off The Press

    So sex work is just like any other job, except we have to give it special exceptions unlike any other job, yeah that's logical. Sorry but if someone's a former scientist and I see them in a D&D post like this and my comment is "Science and D&D, it's like I'm back in high school" that isn't a...

    Waterdeep: Dragon Heist Hot Off The Press

    This is a dumb comment, you're trying to say sex work is no different from any other work yet at the same time immediately assume that because someone talked about her being a former sex worker it must have been in a negative fashion. The person seemed to just have a case of nostalgia, give them...

    D&D 5E Vampiric Touch Opportunity Attack Ruling?

    Cute, you cut out the very next part of the definition, here let me get it for you: b : existing or coming about seemingly at random or by chance or as a capricious and unreasonable act of will <when a task is not seen in a meaningful context it is experienced as being arbitrary — Nehemiah...

    D&D 5E Vampiric Touch Opportunity Attack Ruling?

    Look up the definition, arbitrary is random. The rules are anything but random, open a dictionary and learn something.

    D&D 5E Vampiric Touch Opportunity Attack Ruling?

    You clearly do not, you have used the word incorrectly every time you've used it thus far. There is nothing to agree with, the definition is a set thing, not an opinion. You do not understand the word, or you're intentionally using it incorrectly for god knows what reason.

    D&D 5E Vampiric Touch Opportunity Attack Ruling?

    Incorrect, Opportunity Attacks allow you to make a single melee attack as a Reaction, they in no way shape or form are Actions. You can only take Actions on your own turn, even readying an attack is forgoing your Action to instead use a Reaction later on. You might want to check the rules. Also...

    D&D 5E Vampiric Touch Opportunity Attack Ruling?

    Yes you used arbitrary, incorrectly.

    D&D 5E Vampiric Touch Opportunity Attack Ruling?

    It's honestly hilarious reading these comments, people see the "on your turn as an action" and just try to ignore it. By that logic I can ignore the bonus action portion of bigby's hand and use the clenched fist option as an attack of opportunity because it gives me a melee spell attack. Yeah...

    D&D 5E Vampiric Touch Opportunity Attack Ruling?

    Nobody is saying you can't house rule it, they're just saying that the book says you can't make an Opportunity Attack with the ongoing effect of Vampiric Touch. It isn't vague at all, the spell description clearly outlines the rules for using the spell, that's how EVERY spell is. The rules for...

    D&D 5E Berserker Barbarian Fix?

    There is 0 abuse of math anywhere in my statements, I have no idea where you're pulling that from. But sure, if you want to just ignore all empirical evidence, I'm not going to stop you since it's become abundantly clear you're going to keep refusing to see facts laid out before you. Good day.

    D&D 5E Berserker Barbarian Fix?

    Actually Sentinel does overlap with Retaliation, and Martial Adept is a horrible feat, but yes, resilient is a good one. That still doesn't address the fact that without GWM you're going to be outclassed at the one thing you're built to do. Nor the fact that even with GWM you barely do 7 more...

    D&D 5E Berserker Barbarian Fix?

    Well then let me throw this out to you, instead of using the most favorable of calculations for the no feat barbarian, how about the level 20 comparison against that same AC target, where the featless barbarian does 31 dpr, and 46 while frenzied and caps out at 62 dpr when frenzied AND making...

    D&D 5E Berserker Barbarian Fix?

    Well I mean if you want to disagree with math, you're certainly welcome to your opinion.

    D&D 5E Berserker Barbarian Fix?

    No, the rage damage is +2, and if you're going to try to use the point that 5 dpr is nothing then the amount of "overkill" is negligible, so to trying to use that as a bonus point for the berserker is just petty. You also forget that this whole calculation was made at the absolute most...

    D&D 5E Berserker Barbarian Fix?

    You're completely ignoring the whole point of polearm master, the bonus action attack, a barbarian with 20 str and no feats does about 26 dpr attacking a 16 ac target with reckless attack, a barbarian with GWM and PM and 16 str attacking the SAME 16 ac target with reckless attack does 31 DPR. 5...

    D&D 5E Berserker Barbarian Fix?

    I'm sorry but that's just not mathematically sound, a berserker without GWM doesn't come anywhere close to a bearbarian with GWM and PM with 2 less str mod. Also, 2 hp per level is NO WHERE NEAR half damage from everything but psychic, not even by a mile. I can count on 2 hands the number of...

    D&D 5E Build Help - Dex Based Fighter/Barbarian - Want to do it all

    I'm imagining that since he's basically making a "tank" he will have higher con than wis and be increasing con before wis with ASI's so he'd get a higher AC out of barb than monk, in addition to the higher hit dice for barb levels and the better con giving a few hit points, as well as rage...

    D&D 5E [GUIDE] Dealing Death: Handbook of the True Assassin

    Eh, Jack of all Trades only lets you add half your proficiency bonus, Reliable Talent specifies proficiency bonus as a requirement, since any ability check that Jack of all Trades applies to inherently doesn't benefit from your proficiency bonus, it cant work together.
