From what I've noticed, Rogues use TWF for the extra chance at SA and not for the extra d6 damage. And they tend to want Extra Attack not for the extra damage but for the extra attempt at SA without having to TWF or CBE so they can free up their Bonus Action for Cunning Action. Basically Rogues...

I think it would be really interesting if you fold in Weapon Master into Martial Adept so you get: 4 Martial Weapons 2 Maneuvers 1 Superiority Dice (d6) Regain on a Rest There's hardly any powercreep, you add a bit of tactics, and you get a whole lot of conceptual flavour and diversity...

A persons body often react before the person does. If you keep in mind that a whole round happens in the window of 6 seconds and everyone is acting all at once, then the difference between initiative 1 is as small as taking a breath, or blinking before you act, while initiative 20 just acts...

The half a million goal is Lindsay having a bit of fun. It might as well say that he'll tattoo the D&D ampersands on his forehead for 500k. I remember WotC saying that the PHB +1 was to keep the barrier to entry for new players as low as possible, and less about broken combos. If a new player...

Initiative is a curious mechanic. During a combat "round" of 6 seconds everyone is taking their turn at the exact same time. But the DM can't resolve all those actions at once. So everyone rolls Initiative to see in which order the actions get resolved, not to see who "goes first". I don't...

You pretty much have everything covered. all that came to mind was: Two workers holding a giant window pane for Urban Terrain, Indifferent Creatures. and Spotting an Ex, either Hostile or Indifferent Creature. Depending on the Ex.

What alternative ways could you use the coins in the spell? Either pulled from the real world. Example, Coins in the mouth. Or made up. For example, Putting a coin in the palm of the hand then making a fist, then you wrap the closed hand with string. Or placing a coin on the sole of the foot...

I think it would be helpful for new players if you can spend 10-15 minutes just having them fight waves of monsters by themselves in a mock encounter. Having them roll to attack and damage, but having the monster just die after a hit. Having them take damage but not actually track it. You can...

Niece: So, what's an orgy? Me: Well, it can mean two things. One is excess, or binge. Like when it's so much that you don't even know what to do with it. Get it?" Niece: Oh, okay. And the other? Me: Well, It's when a group of people get together and all have sex with each other at the same...

A notebook that's a step up from a Mead Spiral binder for your notes and doodles ( Size 8 x 5 -ish ), square grid paper instead of lined is the best (It takes a minute to get used to, but once you do you never want to go back). It's very useful and it just makes you feel kinda cool when you...

So, I really like how the Rogue plays. The fact that the rogue damage is middle of the road feels like a feature to me and not a bug. If the Rogue did too much more damage then It would feel like the game would be signalling me and thus compel me to take combat more seriously, in terms of...

I remember in a very very old thread people pointing out that the Great axe had a better "Kill percent" then the Great sword. In that a Great axe did less average damage then a Great sword, but that the Great axe was more likely to kill common CR 1/8, 1/4 (goblins, bandits, kobold, ect.)...

This is what I came up with. It's a Fighter sub-class and I tried to keep the complexity rock bottom, while adding as much flexibility as possible. Ally Surge Beginning on 3rd level, you can push your allies beyond their normal limits for a moment. An ally that can see and hear you on their...

I stuck this in another thread but they suggested I make a whole new thread for it instead because of the nature of forums. so here it is. Ally Surge Beginning on 3rd level, you can push your allies beyond their normal limits for a moment. An ally that can see and hear you on their turn can...

I was going to make a thread with an idea for a warlord that I had, but since you already have I figured I should just stick it here. Ally Surge Beginning on 3rd level, you can push your allies beyond their normal limits for a moment. An ally that can see and hear you on their turn can take one...

Just have the first attack the Rouge makes on the first round of combat always have Advantage and always triggers Sneak Attack and a Crit. Quick, simple, feels Assassin-y, and no longer encourages the player behaviour of splitting away from the party.

Maybe if you take away the offence potential (which instantly makes people mistrust it) by making it an Action you'll be able to expand on what it can do outside of combat so you feel more bamfy. So without the bamf and Attack option you give yourself more space to fiddle with the utility knob...

Woah! I fully expected the White males to be in the 90%. But it's a lot lower, I was way off. I feel a little silly for my assumptions now. Hello to only about 75% of the people here, were you as pleasantly surprised as I was? POC males and Females I expected to be about similar, but I did...

If you put 20 mice in a bag they would just thrash around loudly untill the backpack tears and they spill out. It seems to me that the player just wants to make sure that the cat has kitty rations so it doesn't starve. I think you should reassure the player that the cat won't starve and you'll...
