Post homerules that buff the shit out of your favorite op classes/archetypes in order to piss off austic hekanon
Christopher Miller
Should I include !Japan in my game?
Anthony Allen
Stop trying to defy me.
Austin White
Unarmored Immortal with bestial claw is the best. Thanks Standard Array!
Caleb Ross
Because it's unrealistic for armor to hamper gestures to the point of fucking with simple spellcasting, wearing armor that you are not proficient with now no longer affects spellcasting
Aiden Jones
Warrior of sunlight. EK can use their dash as arcane charge.
Jackson Wood
No D20's.
Connor Walker
Yes.
Wyatt Russell
>Does your party have a name, /5eg/? One party has been labeled the King's Chosen after the late king put his trust in them. The other has no name outside of being called Chucklefucks by me every session.
The options in those poll were gathered from the most highly voted options from other polls.
Nolan Hernandez
>Not making your spellcasters do the worm and belly dance to heal light wounds
GTFO NORMIE
Dylan James
Is an encounter with multiple treants more dangerous than its XP value would suggest? Considering that each is essentially 3 monsters.
Daniel Gutierrez
>Needs Str to hit, Dex for defense, Con for defense and Int because he's a mystic and all his powers are Int based Are you crazy?
Zachary Ross
Is playing a drow reskinned as a dhampyr allowable? I seem to remember them mentioning that you should feel free to reflavor things as long as the mechanics stay the same.
Nathan Ward
>Does your party have a name, /5eg/
We're the DUSK HUNTERS!
Logan Richardson
>Is playing a drow reskinned as a dhampyr allowable?
Alexander Murphy
Fighters Action surge gives bonus actions back as well.
Benjamin Edwards
i can barely move my fingers in leather gloves dude
Ethan Jackson
Kind of a meta rule, but anytime my character drops to a third of his health I backhand the motherfucker who's responsible.
Keeps party backstabbing to a minimum and makes sure the DM targets the other guys.
Gavin Hernandez
They have very little in common That said, if your DM says ok you can play a drow reskinned as a rust monster for all I care
Every martial gets sneak attack
Jace Williams
Check out the Plane Shift things for vampire PCs, that'd probably help.
Blake White
>Every martial gets sneak attack Nah senpai, check this: rogues can sneak attack with any weapon they are proficient with.
Owen Sullivan
Right now we're the Huggermuggers, after a board game one of the guys' parents had in the house we were gaming at. It's the only one that's stuck, particularly for two reasons: 1) There's not much funnier than villainous mooks shitting themselves in fear knowing that "the Huggermuggers are in town" 2) It can be used as a silly, tenuous euphemism for rape
Jason Foster
Every martial gets fighter extra attacks, fighters get extra action surges
Grayson Ward
The treants already have that ability figured into their XP etc -- supposedly.
Juan Clark
>SoA >Sort of Adventurers
Levi Ramirez
Wizards, like all classes, get their class and archetype features earlier. They don't get accelerated spellcasting progression. Spellcasting improves every other level, there's not much waiting for power there. You can go quite a while without anything emblematic to your class or archetype, though.
Adam Stewart
>Do what the class and path tell me to do >Crazy
Logan Flores
What makes college of lore so good?
David Gomez
How do we make the indomitable feature more interesting?
Liam Morales
>They have very little in common Darkvision and sunlight sensitivity, refluff the elf meditation as a vampiric trance, perception proficiency, fey ancestry fits perfectly as undead ancestry too, and the weapon proficiencies are a bonus. The only thing that doesn't fit perfectly is the magic, but since I'm playing a warlock too, I can just right it off as additional sorcery.
It fits pretty well.
Julian Torres
Ability to steal spells, mainly. > Steal ranger's swift quiver > Become Wilhelm Tell
Joseph Torres
Just replace Indomitable with another saving throw proficiency or two. Or replace it with advantage on saving throws the Fighter is proficient in.
>b-but that's op fighters stronk Paladin's Aura of Protection.
Gavin Davis
Some kind of bonus against the source of the save? I kind of like the idea of a counter or sudden retaliation against a creature or object as it's open.
Julian Barnes
Saw this pic and had a thought. Can Awaken work on inorganic materials? If I play a Rock Gnome Bard, could I make a little 9-style clockwork toy, then cast Awaken on it to have my own little 9-bot?
...or an army of them?
Aaron Anderson
Was he related to Simon Says?
Brody Russell
Eh that should probably just be a standard thing for all classes, if anything, fighters don't need or deserve the tendency to be exalted above all other martials
Grayson Baker
I don't know, user, why don't you read the spell text and tell me?
Matthew Cruz
...do you seriously not know who William Tell is, or were you just making a stupid pun?
Nathan Wilson
>Burgerland education
Elijah Robinson
Not him, but you wrote WILHELM Tell
Colton Nguyen
okay, so hear me out. what about a little bonsai tree artfully shaped into the form of a person?
What about a character who makes bonsai trees as a hobby, and when he thinks they're done he awakens them?
William Foster
Ah. I'm but not still didn't notice it though.
Carson Ramirez
Is it just me or does the Mystic not have much to gain from feats? All the obvious feats to buff someone like GWM aren't really useful on them in the slightest.
Matthew Carter
Is that a bad thing? It could be designed, to force players out of the meta into trying other feats.
Ayden Turner
Neither does the Monk and yet people still play them.
This isn't 3.pf, feats are completely optional
Benjamin Bennett
I'm just thinking that because they gain nothing much from feats maybe that helps to balance out the fact they're so powerful.
has anyone ever played as a shadow monk? how did it work out? multiclass into assassin rogue, yay or nay?
Austin Nelson
>Neither does the Monk And that's why he's behind in damage than literally every other martial >and yet people still play them People also played it in 3.PF
Is MAD as hell, as MAD as monk, they can't spare feats on effects, they need all those +2
Eli Diaz
I played 3 They all died in the first or second session, so now that I think about it, only one was an actual shadow monk at the time he died
Charles Howard
You can homerule it but the spell grants sentience, not life. Trying to awaken a carved bonsai tree would be equivalent to trying to awaken a piece of wood laying on the forest floor: it's already dead.
Adam Harris
shadow monk is the most *teleports behind u* class out there
Jordan Diaz
I honestly don't think the multiclass is worth it. It's 3 levels of Ki and monk abilities gone for a Critical hit, some bonus action stuff and some skills.
Now that I think about it though a Goblin Monk could be pretty cool.
Evan Wood
Well, Nomadic step now allows you to do that without having to rely on shadows
Christopher Harris
But bonsai aren't dead, they're carefully trimmed as they grow so that they are grown into specific forms. The tree is still alive.
Liam Jenkins
Radically different classes without much overlap.
Connor Gray
Sorry, meant for
Sebastian Collins
Playing through Curse of Strahd with irl friends, and we cleared out the winery today. Was a lot of fun.
I adopted the vicious female druid from the second floor. I'm a big fuckin dragonborn paladin, and I'm her new dad.
Chase Johnson
Irrelevant both options can be teleports behind you
Hunter Roberts
Are you sure want an artificially shaped bonsai tree given the ability to speak?
I can only imagine it moaning about why you shaped it into some kind of horrific and warped wooden parody of the human form and to please kill it and put it out of its twisted misery.
Landon Ward
This sounds like the greatest pet tree ever.
Owen Wright
Have you met a woman called Muriel Vinshaw yet? No spoilers - she has a very, very minor and unimportant part in the adventure, but for some reason in every story I've heard, DMs made her a major character. So did I.
Luke Ross
We are the "Spears of the Emperor" even though we all agree that that's just the shitty name the Emperor gave us. we just can't be assed to think of a better one
Grayson Cox
Name doesn't sound familiar, but then again we blazed through Vallaki pretty quickly with the intent to come back later. And we were turned away from Krezk, obviously.
Nathaniel Nelson
I have a Shadow Monk in STK but it's a multiclass Fighter who wears armor and swords-n-boards. Basically I spam Silence, stuns, and *teleports above u*. It's good fun.
Blake Hill
Be extremly careful, 7 of you are going to betray the other 4
Kevin Parker
>Group of 7 + DM that gets together every saturday >DM asks everyone to put their cell phones in a bin in the center of the table >I refuse because I'm not in preschool >game goes on, two of the five people that complied check their phones from the pile during game >DM says nothing when they do >1am rolls around, we all tidy up and start getting ready to leave >DM gives everyone who left their phone in the bin the entire night two inspiration die to use at their discretion >I barely touched my phone the entire night and get nothing
Is this allowed?
Mason Green
What are the differences between ranger and ranger revised?
Caleb Wilson
that's a fair point. Maybe an evil druid. Maybe he leaves them wandering wretchedly outside his home as a warning for intruders.
Oliver Garcia
Why is the only Mystic archetype so low?
Leo Cook
Are the other players retarded?
Matthew Anderson
Does anyone ever just play a sub-optimal character just for fun?
Jaxson Morales
I'd say so. His rules mean that he can do whatever he wants. If you don't want to play by his rules then don't play his game.
Also just put your fucking phone in the thing and don't touch it. Is it that hard not to look at a phone for one night?
Leo Hall
...allowed by who?
Elijah Gray
One sucks, the other doesn't
Wyatt Flores
is this bait? can you not read user or are you having trouble spotting the differences? They're pretty well documented.
James Turner
because fuck the mystic
also it came out last week you goose
Jackson Gray
He's most likely asking for the core changes and how they effect the class. I can't be assed to type them out personally.
Try not to take everything literally.
Evan Robinson
chances are if he brought a rule like this in it's cause you fucks are paying more attention to your phones than the game and wasting his time. it's already hard to manage a group of 7 as one person.
Michael King
Speaking of OP, how do I stat the Other/White Walker in 5e?
Blake Bell
>implying anyone here has played a Mystic except me
Sebastian Phillips
>Implying we didn't start a new game 3 hours ago and we're currently having a break for drinks
Soul Knife's fun and not unbalancing anything at level 2 at least.
Owen Peterson
>tfw starting a new game and GM won't allow mystics because people online are saying its broken
Dylan Martin
one of them plays a barbarian that might be clinically retarded but he's got at least his grade 12 in real life. rest are fairly smart. why? this is the only game that isn't full of sjw/gender issues at my college. It's not hard, I just don't think other people should be rewarded because they're boring and no one wants to talk to them. by wizard or whoever the fuck is the authority on this game I'm texting when it's not my turn and nothing important is going on. I shouldn't be penalized because I don't want to listen to our necromancer trying to convince the village clergy he wants to help people in his own way, or how the barbarian is hesitant to rage because he accidentally some family member during one before he met us. has nothing to do with the campaign.
Ian Martin
>Is this allowed? Rule 0, so yes. If you're pissy about not getting inspiration or whatever just put your phone in the bin. If you're not gonna be using it, not like it matters.
Jace Rodriguez
This is actually not allowed. I would get in contact with WotC and tell them what your DM is doing so he gets his DM license revoked
Hunter Wood
>DM knows I can break literally anything >ask to play Mystic (version 2, the 10 level one) >gosh I dunno it looks really overpowered >finally convince him >wind up being the most useless character in the party
Christian Green
Oh, you're one of THOSE players.
Yeah, everyone at that table is annoyed by you.
Jace Moore
>I'm texting when it's not my turn and nothing important is going on. How do you know nothing important is going on if you're looking at your phone. >I shouldn't be penalized because I don't want to listen to our necromancer trying to convince the village clergy he wants to help people in his own way, or how the barbarian is hesitant to rage because he accidentally some family member during one before he met us. has nothing to do with the campaign. >It's not hard, I just don't think other people should be rewarded because they're boring and no one wants to talk to them. Sounds like you just don't want to engage with the other players, in which case why don't you just play Skyrim or some shit.
Daniel Torres
Has anyone played an Artificer yet? I'm thinking of playing an alchemist but I'm worried that all I will be doing is alchemist fire/acid all day every day
Elijah Stewart
>I shouldn't be penalized because I don't want to listen to our necromancer trying to convince the village clergy he wants to help people in his own way, or how the barbarian is hesitant to rage because he accidentally some family member during one before he met us. has nothing to do with the campaign.
it does though. as a DM I kinda get where he's coming from.
Wyatt Diaz
>Gundren's Rowdy Boys
Easton Young
You're asking if Wizards of the Coast has an official, ironclad rules on the conditions when cellphones can be used at the d&d table?
Jaxson Perry
Just do it. Tell us results.
Asher Jenkins
That's a fuckin slap on the wrist, man. I sell fake DM licenses for $20 a pop
Carter White
>Sunlight sensitivity >On DAYWALKERS wat
Kevin Perez
lol
Colton Ross
Multiclass is fine, as long as you don't go beyond level 5 or 6.
Generally, any class with extra attack can be multiclassed fine with rogue.
