[QUOTE="Dausuul, post: 6586165, member: 58197"] Well, on the subject of cool game experiences: I recently retired my necromancer in favor of a 13th-level arcane trickster rogue, and it's [I]awesome[/I]. In my new character's first session, I: [LIST] [*]Jumped onto a hydra's head, then leaped from one head to another to bait it into attacking itself. (Pro tip for rogues: Put one of your Expertise slots into Acrobatics. You won't regret it.) [*]Rescued a bunch of low-level soldiers from basilisks by creating an illusionary fire elemental. [*]Cast [I]prestidigitation[/I] to make a dead goblin extra tasty, then used it to lure a black pudding away from my allies. [*]Used [I]mage hand[/I] to give the Three Stooges eye-poke to a spirit naga. (The class feature just says you use [I]mage hand[/I] to "distract" an enemy. I like to add details.) [*]Bypassed dozens of enemy archers with the aid of an [I]eversmoking bottle[/I]. [*]Rowed across an underground lake in a boat made from the hollowed-out cap of a giant mushroom. [*]Whenever I wasn't busy doing something more awesome, sneak attacked for lots of damage. [/LIST] 5E rogues [B]rock[/B]. [/QUOTE]
