    D&D 5E I feel like the surveys gaslit WotC about """"Backwards Compatibility""""

    I did not say 2e was a failure. Im saying after time and poor decisions it became one. I.e. not an edition issue,

    D&D 5E I feel like the surveys gaslit WotC about """"Backwards Compatibility""""

    IMO, releasing 2E was a successful decision, it was the splat overload, too many settings lines, etc, that was the bad decision. I.e. overloading the demand for product to the extent that "average" players had to choose what to buy out of the multitudes of choices.

    D&D (2024) 2024 - Do magic weapons bypass resistance now?

    D&D (2024) 2024 - Do magic weapons bypass resistance now?

    Addendum: You could still have creatures that had resistance/immunity to "magical" weapons, I just wouldnt put that and "silver" on the same creature.

    D&D (2024) 2024 - Do magic weapons bypass resistance now?

    I have thought that perhaps the +1, +2 of "magic" weapons is merely magically enhanced accuracy and damage (a valuable attribute to be sure), but that it does not affect resistances to type or material.* I.e. A weapon would still need silver to affect jackalweres, even if it was a +1. *the...

    Five Takeaways From the 2025 Monster Manual

    And no, not all Kyrieans would have that background. Because to some, occupation is more important than culture. In representing their character. YMMV.

    Five Takeaways From the 2025 Monster Manual

    Except when my player says, "My former professions are not important, I want to focus on the fact that I came from this culture instead." So I created them a "Cultural Background" (2014 rules) Native Kyriean You come from a country that has a wide spread usage of low-level magic, and are more...

    That is the most funny, hilarious, accurate, and scary thing I've read all week. Well done.

    D&D General How much do you care about rule change specifics?

    I just bought a 2014 today.

    Jeremy Crawford Also Leaving D&D Team Later This Month

    Exactly. To be fair, its probably because we all live in such wide and varied spaces, styles in more than just games are going to be varied. But we only see whats around us.
