Sure, it's still technically playtest, but always happy to share and give feedback. I'll DM you

I actually ended up completely retuning bard and we've been running with that homebrewed rework for just about 9 months now. It's definitely not perfect, but seems to fix a lot of major gripes, and specialties and hymns are no longer the omni-present, meta-defining bard features they are in base

Very fair, I wasn't sure if this was just a contingency against being rife for abuse at other DM tables, but it sounds like a lot of people agree it's just a "just in case" kind of protection

Well the implication would be a protection against MORE than that, so it would be a contingency against at least 3 short rests per day, but you're right, it's not 4

Hey all, So one of my players recently made a full switch from a Barbarian to a Cleric, and just going over some of the higher level rules we found something that seems a bit unique in the Herald class. Divine Recovery At 12th level, you can transform divine energy into more easily manipulated...

At this point I think the argument breaks down into semantics that aren't really meaningful, in a broad discussion at least. This would moreso, in my opinion, come down to the broad DnD rule of "specific trumps general", in that if your DM is specific about this kind of stuff, go with their...

Yeah, I like the way you think. A spell doesn't have to directly say it makes a haven to meet the requirements. I MIGHT argue about Meld into Stone, but that's more on the basis of "do the requirements to get a long rest fit into being encased in stone for 8 hours?", but that's more nebulous...

Thread topic: What spells count as a Haven The end of my first post: "by this standard I would argue that while very few spells directly provide an option for a haven, many spells can be used to indirectly create a haven by dealing with the hazards that prevent a haven" My post was essentially...

I think you're kind of missing my overall point, which is that just because a spell explicitly says it has the ability to be a haven is not an absolute ruling. 200gp cost aside, I don't think any DM would seriously let their party put down an A5e Tiny Hut in the middle of a dungeon and let their...

I do disagree with Tiny Hut being a haven, if only for the reasons that it is easily dispelled, and interestingly it differs from 5e's tiny hut in that ANY creature or object can pass through it, making it ripe for an ambush of just about any type. However, I also play with a more brutalist...

That's fair, and I agree it might be easier to strike at the "heart" of the issue with the base class, but that doesn't mean GPG is restricted simply to subclasses or anything. I think one of the higher rated requests from the community for the GPG was alternative rulesets for things, so I don't...

While I think a lot of the more common choices would be "cool" (Artificers getting more gizmos, sorcs getting picked for being popular, Marshals being picked because they're new, etc, etc), I genuinely think Berserkers SORELY need more class options / features. Their main problem, as someone...

Hey, I don't know if there's a great place to talk about this and give like full-form feedback, but I was actually super excited about the duel rules. So apologies for the effort-post ahead? Seeing the announcement of next month's GPG articles come up reminded me of all the stuff from this...

K. That's an incredible oversimplification of what could be happening, and moot regardless: I'm sure the people putting out a product want to be alerted to any inaccuracies in their product

Not sure if I'm missing something obvious, but the Cerebral Archetypes says "What follows are a trio of archetypes...", but it seems there's only two in the PDF from patreon.

It's definitely not something I'm demanding in any way, these were just some thoughts I had. I figured the people making these products might be interested in hearing what some people think about the marketing style. But I also do 1000% sympathize with the struggle of "Well if I preview too...

This is definitely strangely worded, the fact that it says "and your weapon attacks deal fire damage, as well as its original types, until the end of your next turn." makes me believe it's implying additional damage, but there's no reference to what size of dice to use. So my assumption from...

Small nit-picky ramble here: as this list grows, and as a DM with a party that really likes to build characters from very strong ideas of what they want them to be / act like, I wonder if there's ever going to be a way to get some sort of preview of all of these archetypes. "Field Agent" and...

Hey all, super quick question: There's a discrepancy between the book (both pdf and the physical copy) and a5e.tools, but but no mention of it in the errata. I'm not sure how to check if I have the most recent version of the books, or where to download it. Was hoping to get an official ruling...
