[QUOTE="Sacrosanct, post: 6791110, member: 15700"] In addition to what Redthistle said about ASIs and feats, also keep in mind that a +2 item in 5e is rare, so while it's possible to get a +2 bow before level 10ish, it's not likely. They only go up to +3, not +5 or higher as in previous editions. Also note that flame tongue does not grant a bonus to hit and is also rare. So to have a weapon that does both? That's considered legendary and isn't found until the PCs are in the mid teens at least. The DMG has it a 17th level recommended item. Non mechanically related, I'd also question the class composition. Fighter+rogue+warlock? I'd love to hear that backstory. Did the player level dip for optimizing reasons, or is there an actual in game thematic reason? To answer the tread title, we have on PC in our HotDQ adventure like that. A GWF fighter who has Hazeron (sp). In the defense of the publishers of that adventure, it came out before the DMG. But that weapon is way too OP to be in that campaign, especially at what levels you find it (5ish). [/QUOTE]
