Hi, min maxer here, need another perspective to better see the whole picture. Need to reroll a character, five levels in (milestones). End Game: Paladin 8 + Warlock 2 (max CoS level) Option A) Paladin Ancient 5 pretty straight forward: human variant 16 (+1 heavy armor master) 8 16 8 8 16...

Warlock calls for survivability, sorcerer for pure blast power, so I advice not to multiclass unless you really need to. IF you really need it, though, I'd never stop prior to level 5 sorc (f'balls are a must for AoE encounters) and I'd go up to 6 too, since it makes you apply your charisma to...

my two cents what are you gonna do with him? first liner defender of the weak persona or a "generic purpouse" good guy? if you want to hit first line and overall stand between the squishy and the BBEGs, paladin is your best choice, but paladins have some downsides that can easily be fixed by...

Could you care to integrate the unhearted arcana spells and cantrips as well? I'm quite sure there are several that are subpar (as I consider all "save for nothing" spells really low in my wish lists) and not really worth mentioning, but there are some really sweet ones too! I really love the...

Makes sense :) Then it's settled: a perfect 10 out of 10 :D and thanks for the quick response too! it shows you care indeed! :D

Awesome job, incredibly useful tool! 9.5/10 the only major flaw I found is that you can't modify the Initiative score in order to reflect an Advantage or a bonus other than Alert feat (e.g. luckstone) but otherwise an incredibly awesome tool! I run 3 champaigns and I will definitely introduce...

and Source: http://www.comingstorm.it/DA2/info/Books/AEG/AEG00000.HTM it's not "the" manual because I have no pdf version of ad&d tomes, but it reflects what's inside of it :) This is what I meant about plate suits being costly and rare. In 5th edition they drastically simplified suits of...

what does this have to do with the manufacturing of an item? plate and other expensive items (list which includes boats too, fyi) are not cheap because of the effort a craftsman have to put in the deed. If you think plates should be treated as other items due to a misplaced sense of fairness...

Yes, I did the necroing :) A player of mine found this thread while we were discussing the same issue at our table and it felt right to contribute by sharing our point of view since you guys provided yours :)

well, the books were often flawed in regard of inventory itemization... do you remember when a 10ft pole would sell for the same amount you needed to buy a 10ft ladder, which consists of 2 10ft poles and some rungs? :v

The main issue here is that plated armours are something crafted on demand, like a suit from a tailor, thus being it custom made to fit perfectly the body of the owner, its cost rises accordingly. Cheaper suits of armour can be manufactured to fit several body types (like in the old times, when...

Hi all, I have to retrofit the following paladin and need a different perspective on what to do next, since I find myself undecided. I hope you can help me sort things out :D Level 5, variant human, It's the only "tank" we have, so it was built to take punishment, it has two extra talents than...

Those uses of ability scores that do not reflect on an existing skill are simple ability checks. If you think his knowledge should fall to a specific skill, you can create one ex novo by "averaging" two existing skills or create it from scratch. The latter option, though, will decrease your...

This most likely is the case, I can't really realize how "his" outcome and "our" were that spread out. a warm thank you for the detailed explanation, I really needed that :) p.284DMG "Modifying an Item" You can refit a magic item to your players' characters without issues. Here it explains...

Shots fired indeed, but I'm on the receiving end myself! I just know that to make an average you add up all the values and divide them by their quantity. And we all agree on this one. He says that you can't average an averaged number without approximation, thus since we're in the small numbers...

First of all: I come with an olive branch, with the sole thirst of knowledge, so don't shoot me :p Since this confrontation happened, I wanted to do a little research. Long story short: apparently we're both wrong. A mathematician friend of mine, who uses maths on a daily basis and whose maths...

Unfortunately, due to class features, dipping is not advisable. At the moment I'm at 5th, which means extra attack and 2nd level spells (Find Mount and Misty Step!). Going sorc would mean losing all this for what? 2 extra DM or two magic missiles? not worthwhile IMHO :) Also at level 6th there...

is it beside the point? for real? lol. So they can't use the same propriety for both a ranged 1 handed weapon and any other light one handed weapons because it creates confusion. ok I take it. If you think i'm missing the point, we're done here. Two handed weapons must be operated with 2 hands...

I don't understand why you feel compelled to disprove a point I've made excluding the hit ratio (which involves the crit ratio as well) by forcing the hit ratio argument against it... Did I even once speak about to hit? never. The only time i did, it was to exclude GWM from the list...

let's assume yours are correct for the sake of the argument, in what way they should disprove my theory? I'm missing the point. Hunter's Mark is situational since it's not a cantrip. +2 dex is overall better, mechanics wise, yes! But this is not the point at hand. I'm speaking about Feats...
