Didn't seem simple to me. I have tried a version where critical hits eats one point of AC. Some creatures attacks eats more on a critical hit. Some creatures have improved critical hit range. Oozes and rust monsters etc. always deals AC damage on a hit. Repair up to 1 point of AC with mending...

Hello people I have been playing a UA Shadow Sorcerer for a few seassions but I am now really getting the shadow vibe I want. So I started looking around and found this: https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Shadow_Adept_(5e_Archetype) What do you guys think about the balance of it?

Here is my take on firearms. I was going for a Blood Borne meets The Brotherhood feel. It might not be super balanced, but it worked ok for a level 11 group. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6GpvnWrexIuY1JTZFVOdGRaLVE/view?usp=sharing

16 str and 16 con. I did calculation last play session. He is 25%-100% more damaging than the rest of the group. Mind you, the rest is more of less on the same amount. I am playing a Horc TWF Fighter (Monster Hunter) 10, We have a Sword and Board Drow Paladin of the Ancients, and a Human...

Sure. I get where what you mean. But that is also DM fiat territory. In all cases where you need a definite answer to a problem, like antimagic, I would treat the player as a regular monk. But to be honest, I don't really think the core system of 5E perfectly balanced, so changing small...

I would look to "blind" monsters from outside of DND before designing elite Grimlocks. -slapping extra Hp, AC and Saving Throws on them is easy enough. One could just reskin the Orc. But, have you ever watched Bleach? There is a blind guy in that series that traps his opponents in a globe of...

We have a Bear Totem Barbarian in my group. He has basically dominated the game from level 1 to 10. Deals insane amounts of damage, basically has twice as many hp as everybody else (because Bear rage makes him resistant to everything except Psychic). GWM, Luck and Sentinel means he dishes out 50...

I love reflavoring. Nobody should have a problem with this if the mechanics stay in place. I did it awhile back with the Monk. For me, they have no place in a regular mideval setting. So I proposed two reflavorings of the Open Hand. Arcane Duelist, where all aspects are semi permanent spells...

Not a class, but how about a spirit shaman subclass for the druid? Circle of Spirits? A character that can concentrate on several spells with the help of the spirit world. And rebuke spirits and so forth. Just like the 3.5 class of the same name. Did a handbook for that class once and felt the...

True enough. Maybe all this boils down to is it should have been called Witch Hunter. Then thematically it would be fine.

Makes a lot of sense. Fiends, aberations and undead are evil monsters, everybody knows. Monstrosities are monsters by default. Dragons are evil monsters 50% of the time. But fey? Fey are monsters 20% of the time :D If I ever get to play a Monster Hunter I will ask my DM if I can customize my...

Damnit. I feel like there is hidden potential in the Monster Slayer feature, but I just can't figure it out. I thought maybe there would be some synergy with Sweeping Strike, but all it does is spread out the damage it seems. Thanks for clearing that up. :) Still cool that you can burn two...

Regarding Monster Hunter, if he scores a critical and spends 2 two superiority dices (let's say 2d10) does it turn into 4d10? And if the target was an undead, are they maximized so it takes 40 extra damage? And if the said maneuver, where you chose to expend a superiority dice to deal extra...
