    How crucial is to have a map?

    So you would always have a map with yourself if you could, right? Because the pleasure of being a GM is to depict your own world in the best way which players can see all the details like you do.

    Aah thats lame, so my warlock slots will be useless for bard spells :< How can I get extra skills from Lock to Bard ?

    D&D 5E When to Roll Initiative

    Thank you : ) Eventho its still pointless at lower levrl cuz a D20 can easily make your initiative score, meaningless. A Ranger with 6 intiative and a Wizzard with 3 or 2, can both make D20 and there is a very high chance that Wizzard starts the fight first. If I were a DM I would make a...

So does JoAT makes a Bard a candidate...
