    D&D 5E DM Help! My rogue always spams Hide as a bonus action, and i cant target him!

    In this discussion about hiding the differentiation between unseen and location is important. There are different scenarios to be considered. --------------------------------- Lets take the pillar example with one rogue and one enemy. A rogue moves behind the pillar (one square). So he has...

    I just saw the PHB errata about hiding. "The DM decides when circumstances are appropiate for hiding. Also, the question isn't wheter a creature can See you when you're hiding. The question is whether it can See you clearly." knowing that darkvision grants dim light conditions in darkness and...

    @Hemlock: that makes sense. I will consider what you wrote. The roguesinger should start als a rogue (First Level), I believe, to get the extra Start skill profiencies of the rogue class. Which sequence do you recommend for taking the classes? First 2 levels rogue and than switch to bladesinger...

    Understood. Taking 2 levels of rogue leaves 4 ASI for the character building. which feats do you recommend for a rogue2/bladdesingerX build? I presume mobile, warcaster (dual wielding and grappling; one hand for grap, one for the weapon) and Dex+2, Dex+2? in advance thank you for your answer.

    One question to the rogue2/bladesingerX build: you have mentioned that before the volo guide was published rogue 2 was the only option to hide. Do you refer to the goblin trait on page 119 "nimble escape"?

    D&D 5E [GUIDE] NADRIGOL's Melee Bladesinger Guide

    Actually the difference on average damage in a full attack round gets smaller if both use only one rapier and instead of warcaster feat INT +2 is taken: Pure Bladesinger average damage with one rapier at level 20: 2xd8 + 5 +5 (DEX) + 5 +5 (INT Song of victory) = 29 Pallysinger average damage...

    D&D 5E [GUIDE] NADRIGOL's Melee Bladesinger Guide

    Regarding the Paladin2/BladesingerX build: I am currently under the impression it is not so much of a difference compared to a pure bladesinger, but it offers a new option with divine smite. my traditional high elf bladesinger 20: Str 8, DEX 16, Con 14, INT 16, Wis 8, CHA 12 Feats: Mobile...

    D&D 5E [GUIDE] NADRIGOL's Melee Bladesinger Guide

    GarrettKP I see what you mean. I am actually not a fan of the dual wielded feat. But I can see my bladesinger using 2short swords. As far as damage is concerned, the character loses 3 points in average (3 attacks with shorts swords = 3d6 vs. 3 rapieriers with d8). But I get one feat back. So...

    D&D 5E [GUIDE] NADRIGOL's Melee Bladesinger Guide

    @NADRIGOL: One comment about the guide. In the multiclass-section about the paladin second level dip it is written "Note that spells requiring saves will be wisdom based, which makes..." In PHB on page 84/85 it is mentioned that paladin spells are charisma based. First, you might want to...

    Yunru, GarettKP: As far as I am concerned I see two separate argumentation lines. Both logically valid. Which one you prefer, depends on your own preferences. I thank you for sharing your point of views, so I can add them to my considerations.

    D&D 5E [GUIDE] NADRIGOL's Melee Bladesinger Guide

    Some comments/thoughts about eleven bladesingers (no human variant with starting feat): 1) Paladin 2 / Bladesinger X How would you build the paladin 2 / bladesinger X and which feats would you take? I can see that wielding two weapons would still work (to get another chance for divine smite)...

    D&D 5E [GUIDE] NADRIGOL's Melee Bladesinger Guide

    In addition one question about how to read the rules when using the cantrips green flame blade or boom blade. Both cantrips state that a melde attack has to be made. In the PHB on page 205 it is written that a spell requiring an attack (melde or range) uses the spellcasting abilitiy modifier...

    D&D 5E [GUIDE] NADRIGOL's Melee Bladesinger Guide

    One comment: in your damage tables the last ASI is calculated based on lvl 20 (wizards get it at level 19). So basically other races/but bladesinger table would the last ASI at lvl 19 not 20. Same to other races /dual wielder would get the last one at lvl 20 (whereas the guide mentions th last...

    D&D 5E Treantmonk's Guide to Wizards 5e

    Hey guys, I guess all agree that ability increases on intelligence (to 20) is important (if you do start with Int 16 this are two ASI's). The question is when to take those. I will consider your arguments. Thank you for sharing your views on it! Brgds Schattenriss

    D&D 5E Treantmonk's Guide to Wizards 5e

    Hello guys, by reviewing wizard guides, it is stated that a) one priority is to get INT up to max as soon as possible (impact on spell difficulty and number of files to be prepared). In addition b) resilient (con) is also considered as a key feat for wizards. I see both (INT and resilient) as...
