    Ideas a lvl4, 20 Charisma Bard can implement in out-of-combat scenarios

    If you have a rogue type with you, it's the perfect time to pick pocket the crowd. You provide the distraction and he/she takes care of business. People who notice their coin purse is suddenly missing could cause all sorts of a ruckus you could take advantage of as well, although you'd probably...

    D&D 5E ForgedAnvil D&D 5E Character Generator

    I checked out D&DB and I'm not a fan. This character sheet generator made it exceptionally easy for my family and I to get into D&D and start playing very quickly without having to sit at the table and calculate everything for our character sheets. It's a shame to see this get pulled.

    D&D 5E How do you rule switching weapons?

    I don't sweat the 1h battleaxe and shield as much as the 2h great axe. I didn't know there was a RAW way to handle it, so I'll factor that in in the future. I was mainly considering what was realistic to me to accomplish in a 6 second window. Spending time putting stuff away while running 30...

    D&D 5E How do you rule switching weapons?

    I have a barbarian in one of my groups that likes to switch between his 2h greataxe and 1h battleaxe and shield. To switch weapons after combat begins he isn't gracefully swapping between the two, he drops one set on the ground to pull out the other. It was the only way to realistically handle...

    D&D 5E What do you do when players say "we go north" but their characters don't have the "Keen Mind" Feat or Navigation Equipment?

    We roll for survival and your roll determines if you head in the proper direction.. primarily only used when traveling in the outdoors in more monster heavy areas. When following a trail, it's unnecessary for obvious reasons. Inside dungeons we just pick the route we want to go and typically put...
