/5eg/ D&D Fifth Edition General: Drider Edition

That group is missing either a wizard or an infiltrator. Bard can be both.

You need at least one hand free to cast. Having a shield in one hand means that both hands are now full. What they're talking about is holding one object in two hands, then just freeing up one hand to cast.

You only need one hand to keep a two-handed weapon from falling to the ground via propping it against your shoulder or just letting it hang down. It requires two hands to swing but not to hold.

Not really, no. I just give them a lot of choices and let them do what they want. So I kinda know what they want, but I haven't explicitly asked them.

Sure. He can tuck his weapon under his armpit and cast a spell. Would look silly and probably provoke attack but why not. Or can drop it for free and pick it back up as his interaction. Or be smart and have a leather strap so he could drop his weapon but keep it hanging from his wrist.
Its a RP game. RP, imagine, inovate for fucks sake.

So can a Cleric and a Wizard.

with this UA, so can a Cleric Wizard
