Has anyone suggested that the surge of DnD podcasts using 5e (Critical Roll, Adventure Zone) also might be responsible for the popularity of 5e? Everyone I know who got into DnD also knows of/listens to at least one of those podcasts. It's probably two separate things: an increased interest in DnD a...

Gonna push this thread up to note some terminology suggestions and raise a question about how to display information about Discipline Skill/Stat recommendations. Remove spells as a category of powers. Powers that were not spells before (passive powers) are now intrinsic powers. As noted in the "...

Wow. That is a terrible fucking format for answering rules questions, especially with all the other crap and advertising in there. It's actually worse because it's a compilation of answers to rules questions; (afaik) there isn't actually an official medium for it. I don't think Truesight counters I...

https://www.sageadvice.eu/2015/07/17/illusory-reality-2/ So the proper reading of Illusory Reality is the former one, even though it is very badly written. I still don't know whether you can make the object real at cast-time or only as a bonus action after the spell is cast. Either way - it is stron...

What are the biggest things DnD 5e needs to be passable?
This sort of presumes that we're going to tell a low-fantasy sort of story, that characters are going to progress pretty slowly, that the DM is going to pull out bullshit stops to prevent Minionmancers from steamrolling bounded accuracy. Yes, I know, "just use a different system", but my p...

A more pressing issue for this idea specifically is that individual domains are rarely balanced, and pretty much never balanced across multiple levels. There are no domains I can think of that give level appropriate abilities at low, medium, and high levels. Clerics are able to be effective by volt...

It's an interesting idea but I really don't think it goes far enough. As Judging__Eagle and Zaranthan note, just make everyone magic instead of trying to fix martials by throwing them a bone. (Of course, you have to nerf the prime magic users in order to distribute the magic equally among the classe...

how do i get caught up on the 10+ years of RPG game design discussion on here? most notably: * making martials less shitty, making casters less godlike * why is Pathfinder a downgrade from 3.5e * why should i use 3.5e over any other system? are there other good systems for sword+sorcery settings? * ...

So, uh, legit unrelated question about trans people.

When you ask people on this forum questions, they don't answer them. FrankTrollman has, in fact, actually advised people not to answer questions as apparently he thinks honesty is some sort of trap. (That person went ahead and answered questions but eventually refused after a while.) Once someone d...
