    D&D 5E Help me build an undead warband

    As he is a necromancer. Any combination of undead works. They may not be synergystic but a good mix of range and melee will work wonders. Also there are A LOT of undead to choose from and a good number of them have cool abilities!

    D&D 5E Help me build an undead warband

    Don't just think of monsters to add tactics to combat also make good use of terrain. This s a smart guy (presumably) use ranged monsters on high ground with melee guys to stop the PCs in the "kill zone". As I have learned recently use the DMs guide to increasing/decreasing the difficulty of...

    D&D 5E Help me build an undead warband

    You have Tome of Beasts. Look up the Darakhul pg 216, Imperial Ghouls pg 220 and Iron Ghouls pg 221 They are all part of the ghoul imperium with a neat write up on page 217. They might be exactly what you are looking for.

    D&D 5E Melee attacks/unarmed strikes?

    You can most definitely disarm someone with body parts(martial arts). It does help. I think what gets me the most is that as a monk specifically the damage done by the strike. Your strikes start out at dagger damage and end up at two handed longsword damage. If i can inflict that kind of...

    D&D 5E Melee attacks/unarmed strikes?

    Ok before I get started I know that Unarmed strikes to not count as Melee weapons. Now that that is settled why can I make a melee attack with something that is not a melee weapon ( Unarmed strikes) ? Before you bring up tavern brawler that turns mundane items into improvised weapons which...

Prof +1: This shield does D6+str damage and gains the thrown property with a range of 20/60 Prof +2: You gain the ability to don...

    Using a shield as a main weapon.

    What would you say the rarity is on a weapon like that. At a minimum is probably very rare due to adamantium right?

    Using a shield as a main weapon.

    This is really intriguing giving the option on a reaction. Making him if he too the protection style more options for his reactions. I like it a lot!

    Using a shield as a main weapon.

    First thanks for the response. I was not thinking about two weapon fighting because I don't think you should be able to get the AC bonus if you do that. With an open off hand you could readjust your shield after attacking to give the AC bonus.

    Using a shield as a main weapon.

    I'm working on a build that uses a shield in one hand and the other empty for grappling. Think Captain America. My thought is through a lifetime of study/practice he has learned to use his shield as an offensive weapon and still use it for defense as well. I'm not trying to get cheesy with it...

    Unearthed Arcana Ranger Revised - Overpowered?

    You are most welcome. Most DM's don't really think of that option. That is what is great about D&D just adjust it a bit.

    Why do people dislike the Zealot

    I know that this idea is not had by everyone but it seems to me that the Zealot is not liked by the community. According to http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?619716-Survivor-Subclasses-(Non-Magic)-THERE-CAN-BE-ONLY-ONE! Out of 25 subclasses it was the second one removed. I did...

    Unearthed Arcana Ranger Revised - Overpowered?

    The revised ranger is very front loaded. If you feel it's too much adjust when somethings are added to the class.

    UA Mystic Soul Knife + Bestial Claws

    1: Soul knife and Bestial Claws are from 2 different Orders. Bestial claws is a discipline from the Immortal Order. 2: Even if 1 was not true they are both manifestations so can not use both together. Just as you can not use a long sword and a dagger in the same hand.

    D&D 5E Your one best piece of GM/DM advice?

    I think mine would be this. Never fudge dice. Roll them in public ALWAYS! Nothing builds tension like seeing the BBEG roll a 20 on an attack or roll high for spell damage. On the other hand nothing brings hope like seeing the BBEG roll a one against a save or suck spell. Another would be...
