[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 8394669, member: 83242"] If you want my advice on how to make 5e feel more epic then just ask (though why not just stick with 4e). I am not looking to make 5e more epic (until after lvl 20, which is in fact my current project). Let me reiterate this point - I am not looking to make default D&D more "epic." If anything we try to make it less so. Grittier and more dangerous (just like we did in 4e by the way). So, all your arguing that 4e felt more epic for is really falling on deaf ears. It is not something I am looking for in 5e or 4e for that matter. We like to play in the mud, not the clouds. Regarding making 5e more epic: Off the top of my head, why not just port 4e powers over to 5e. Here are some resources for you: [URL='https://www.reddit.com/r/mattcolville/comments/6rn17c/101_powers_from_4th_edition_to_make_5e_martial/']101 Powers from 4th Edition to Make 5e Martial Combat More Interesting, Inspire Awesome Magic Items, and Make Skills Feel Unique[/URL] [URL='https://www.dmsguild.com/product/265088/Martial-Exploits?affiliate_id=209105']Martial Exploits[/URL] - This is a conversion of almost [B]900[/B] 4th Edition Martial Powers into 5th Edition abilities [URL='https://www.dmsguild.com/product/211673/Awesome-Options-Signature-Powers?filters=0_0_0_0_0_45462_0_0']Awesome Options: Signature Powers[/URL] Something similar IIRC: [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/347139/Spheres-of-Power-5e']Spheres of Power 5e[/URL] [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/347954/Spheres-of-Might-5e']Spheres of Might 5e[/URL] Spheres of Might: [B][I]"Legendary Talents — [/I][/B][I]for when games deserve to become truly epic, legendary talents allow games to reach beyond the gritty to truly mythical proportions, including leaping mountains, stealing skills, and bending armies of monsters to your will through sheer force of personality.[/I]" Here is a free fan made version of Spheres of Power for 5e: [URL='https://www.gmbinder.com/share/-M9cjkZxY2dRMomgJlmf']Spheres of Power for D&D 5e[/URL] [/QUOTE]
