>>98143591
>>98143794
At least in terms of a quiet wallflower, I would hazard a guess that it's because the player themselves is more of a wallflower. Because I've had those types of players before and it doesn't really matter what they pick out, because ultimately they're going to hang back and let the rest of the players do the talking.

Not sure what to make of the loner guy though. Those ones usually get bored of it the first time when the realize nobody is going to ask them about their backstory or jump through hoops to convince the character to tag along.

+1 weapons and shields can be made at 2nd, +1 armor is at 6th

>>98144095
Oh, did they change infusions? Don't you need the weapon and armor to infuse it or are plans something different? Haven't had a chance to play it, and won't bother reading it until I do.

>>98144101
as far as I can read, you no longer ned the item in question

>>98144109
Bit early for a +1 weapon, but it's only by a level or two, and forge cleric gets it at level 1. Full plate should be available around levels 4-6 anyway, so really it's just getting the frontliner good AC a bit early.

>>98143246
love those jangly staffs

>>98144029
>>98144101
Looking it over, the infusions themselves are tied into the magic item plans. It's not distinct. So in all cases, you're just creating the magic item out of nothing, and the magic item is explicitly said to vanish when you create a new one over your limit (or you die).

The wrench in this is that to make a suit of full plate at level 2, you're only getting it via choosing the plan for a common magic item that can be a suit of armor. Picking out Armor of Gleaming and making full plate with that is an option.
Though all considered, it's not really that much better than the 2014 Artificer. You could already upgrade armor and shields to +1 with the 2014 version, and that works regardless of the party's armor proficiency.
We're talking 1 extra AC for a heavy armor character with the 2024 version, and that's only if the party is also too poor to afford Splint mail.

>>98144062
Multiclassing is kind of cringe, and it's an optional rule in 2014 which isn't well balanced. I've never not allowed it, nor has any table I've played at, but I wouldn't think twice if a DM didn't.

>>98144197
same

Sometimes you want one cool thing from the class, like a thief's bonus action utilize and the only way to get it is 3 levels in rogue.

I don't want cunning action
I don't want sneak attack
I don't even want bonus action magic action to use magic items

we just need more robust feats and more feats

>>98144149
Yeah, seems like a nothingburger to me. There's only real problem with 2014 was the two bag of holdings at level 2, but only shitters did that and I never had a player try it.

>>98144149
On paper, it's damn great for a Barbarian. Gleaming, Cast-off, or Smoldering Half-plate armor with a +1 Shield puts them at 20 AC on top of their normal Barbarian front-lining capabilities. Now whether or not your Artificer would be willing to do that for you is another question.

Anyway, I figured out about this because I'd like to play a Musket-wielding fem-Dragonborn Artillerist Lawful Evil Mercenary in my buddy's mini-campaign over the summer while work is slow and we're not getting so much OT. I'm choosing some Gleaming Half-Plate Armor and a Repeating Light Crossbow among some other miscellaneous items to start, before exchanging that plan for a Repeating Musket whenever I actually unlock the subclass at level 3 to completely bypass the ammunition and action economies for that weapon's usage.

All of this synergizes extremely well with the new True Strike cantrip, and the Eldritch Cannon from the subclass, which I'm going to frame as being a shoulder-mounted magi-tech "launcher," because I'm cringe and a sucker for this kind of thing. The Eldritch Cannon requires a bonus action to fire each turn, while normally, reloading the Musket requires a bonus action; "Repeating Musket" does not. That lets me conserve all of my spell slots for maintaining the Eldritch Cannon while relying on it and my True Strike Repeating Musket to deal all of my damage.

At level 5, the Musket even starts to scale pretty well. Get an extra 1d8 Force damage from my level 5 subclass feature in addition to the True Strike getting the level 5 cantrip scaling, which is an extra 1d6 Radiant. Sadly, I still haven't figured out what I want to do for my level 5 feat yet. Not too many of the feats are useful for this kind of thing, since anything that affects my gunnery capabilities will affect a physical stat, so I might be stuck with a +3 INT modifier for a while.

Thanks for reading my blog.

Con Resilient, War caster, or lucky?

>>98145876
resilient con would give you +16 max hp which is pretty nice

>>98144304
Okay, except in 2024, the Artificer could just infuse a shield while the Barbarian buys some Scale Mail, and you still end up at 19 AC. And then they can still have an infusion free to enhance someone else.
The only advantage of the 2024 version is that you can use the same infusion multiple times, which is the only thing that prevents the 2014 version from using Enhanced Defense on both a weapon and armor and matching the 20 AC.

Though I'd also question the value of doing that. Barbarians are already very durable, and I'd much rather give the Barbarian a +1 Greatsword so the entire party can live longer thanks to enemies being dead sooner.
By the 2014 rules, even if one of the items has to be a +1 Shield for 19 AC, a returning weapon is a great second, since that can give the Barbarian a +1 Javelin which will be a lot more flexible than 1 extra AC.


All that being said, the Repeating Shot infusion magically generates free ammo. The only reason to wait until level 3 to make one is because you only get Martial Ranged proficiency from the subclass. And even then Repeating Shot also makes it a +1 weapon, so you could probably get away with the slightly lower accuracy for one level.

Anybody got early access to Ravenloft?

It's a sandbox so I'm not doing anything else to suggest they return. The city will fall apart in a few days. If they go to the lost caverns I'd be shocked if at least a few of them don't die. They have enough money for resurrection spells though and scrolls of gentle repose so I imagine the death won't be permanent. I can see their logic in a way, they're looking for an ancient weapon that will help solve the overarching issues they're facing. Maybe they're thinking by dealing with that they can solve the city issues too.

>>98147376
or the caverns just sounds more fun than your city plot

>>98143557
I've been feeling that lately.

>>98147397
Quite possibly. I'm looking forward to running the caverns so don't mind them not returning to the city. They're the ones who set up a bunch of stuff for the city though. They made a base, worked with nobles, even impersonated a noble they found dead. I see the city situation as more of something they set up in many ways and are now neglecting.

If they do return to the city I have another dungeon planned to help them get their own candidate onto the throne. I try to play to D&D's strengths.

I want to play a character based around being a mage hunter since my dm likes to include . Ranger, Rogue, Monk, Eldritch Knight, or dex Paladin? Or some mix of them. Idea is someone who is mobile, can be sneaky if needed, and can fuck over mages/casting npcs somehow. Any recommendations?

Gloomstalker ranger. Being unseen is a massive buff against casters. if you can convicne your DM to update teh old drow high magic feat, (make it a half feat, +1 mental, the spells can be cast with spell slots, they use the modifier chosen for this feat) choosing the 2024 elf (drow) you can a slew of neat spells.

>>dancing light
normally, it's garbage since it requires concentration but as a gloomstalker with pic-related, each 10 ft. radius of dim light you create is a zone you can hide in as a bonus action
>detect magic
you can cast it as a ritual, so a free rotual spell
>faerie fire
again, each enemy that fails the save is cloaked in dim light, which lets you hide right in their face with pic realted
>darkness
moveable and sealable fog clouds. It's a great spell.
>levitate
raise yourself out of the light and you become an invisible turret or force lift an enemy mage to trap them in the air
>dispel
this is the neat part, you can take Drow high magic at 4th level and now have access to a 3rd level spell before even a wizard has it and 5 levels before you'd have access to it. Very handy for mage hunter

and the range has access to nick, so you can make a bunch of attacks to try and break concentration

>>98147596
I'd say Paladin. Ancients if you want to double down on helping the party survive spells, although that's more for 2014 rules.

>Why is this limited to your actions, rather than forced movement enacted against you? I also don't get the reference for the name; is it like "we can't retreat"?
yes, that's the reference. It applies specifically to those situations to represent you not retreating, as opposed to being pushed

>This is also garbage; it's so limited that you're probably never going to get a use out of it.
>they're terrible
that's actually intentional. I didn't want to give clerics extra power they didn't need. level 3 is already fully loaded for them since it's two levels worth of subclass features crammed into one. These are fully intended to be ribbons

>These are fully intended to be ribbons
They're absolutely terrible as ribbons. Ribbons should be things that are flavorful, but don't require diligent tracking. This is something that could come up in any combat, but not every combat, so you'll be halfway between "forgetting you even have it" and "not being able to remember if you already used it today"

I've actually had a game fall apart before it even begins, because one player wanted to play a half-orc paladin of Sune, and the DM was like "Uh, no, half-orcs are disgusting, ugly creatures that Sune would never accept".

When we've played VtM, he tried to play a nosferatu with leathery membrane in his armpits that would allow him to use the gargoyle flying discipline. When the DM vetoed the idea, he pivoted to playing a Samedi (a walking masquerade violation, who looks like a zombie).

Last time I've heard about him, he either tried to play, or has actually played a jew werepouch. That is, a jew that turned into a pouch of money.

Most people are at least subtle about it. I freeformed a fight in my last session in terms of the slimes' abilities but I based it off what oozes normally do. I imagine if he fucked it up that badly he just hadn't read the rules or lacked the DM ability for it.

>>98149449
>Distant counterspell is better but yeah.

RAW, it doesn't work because the reaction specifically calls out the target being in 60ft instead of "within range."

personally, thats stupid, and i'd allow distant counterspell.

>>98149457
Yeah that sounds like an error to fix with an errata.

I allow it. I make counterspells/dispels even stronger with another houserule too: upcasting also adds +1 to the dispel check per level above 3rd. Meaning against higher level spells it's still worth upcasting even without meeting the target spell level, just to increase the odds of it working.

>>98149494
>Yeah that sounds like an error to fix with an errata.

It's not an error; it's intentional design that prevents a player from having exclusive access to a mechanic with no counterplay.

Which makes sense, but is dumb.

This issue you've identified makes 5e incompatible with this kind of initiative system. Any houserules would need to be broad and sweeping to try and account for it.

I ended up ignoring most of your guys's feedback because it just kind of sucked. I still did ditch tenets since I was already giving clerics a lot

>>98153936
You can resolve that issue by only letting them popcorn the first round. Then once the order is set, they have to stick to it for the rest of the combat.

>>98154164
what the fuck is the design for this?

what the fuck does 'domains' mean in the scope of this homebrew? your last post had the War Domain, and now you've got Orders, which reference the War Domain but nearly everything but re-worded for some reason

You're excited for Saturday because there's a new D&D 5e (2024) session coming up. But then your GM gives everyone a week's notice that, for this one-shot, halfling, elves, dwarves, and white human fighters are banned. What race and class do you pick instead?

>>98154216
A black human thief rogue named Tyrone.

>>98154202
basically, what I did is I swapped divine orders and domains. Now, your divine order is your cleric subclass and divine domains are different aspects of your god that grant you powers.

for example, if your god is hermes, he might grant you the knowledge domain at level 2. When you reach level 3, you enter the order of iconoclasts, which grants you the trickery domain. When you gain more domains, you might grab the arcana domain

>>98154216
>GM

also, I'll be an human paladin

why do you people jerk yourself off so hard on playing an NPC? None of you are creative enough to come up with an interesting personality. You just do your millionth "I hate elves and love rape" character, crown yourself here, and then whine and bitch when you get kicked

Tieflings are my favorite, but I'd want to try something I haven't played yet. At the same time, I'll eliminate Genasi and Aasimar since they interest me more for a long campaign, not to be used in a one-shot.
Tabaxi, Shifter, and Warforged strike enough interest for a one shot but not enough for a long campaign. Unless I make a Tiefling anyways but make them different than my current one.
Class would depend on what everyone else is playing.
Of course, there's always the chance I get inspired for a specific character and all the above is moot.

1. Tabaxi Rogue
2. Tiefling Bard

why are the weird races so fucking weird? why are cat people Aztecs and their fucking racial trait is uhhh we can just run faster OK? instead of something that actually themes like some sort of one time use ac buff thanks to their catlike reactions or reduction in fall damage

and WHY are they called tabaxi?? Who's idea was that? 60 seconds reading their fucking lore, just reads like some faggot neckbeard made it up while stuffing his face full of Cheetos

why are the fucking snake people called yuan-ti ok so we have some other faggot neckbeard loser thinking up some cringe ass shit like he just got off jacking it to Tekken in fucking 1995 and wants to ERP as an Asian snake karate woman

all of the beast races need a fucking refresh to get them away from the 90's furries who probably went on to be deviantart developers

he probably isn't a ShitDM that gets filtered by the garbage spells WotC prints

I've only played in one game where anyone even got 6th level spells. 90% of games don't reach that point.

>>98154961
How many games have you played to assume 90% of games don't reach it?

>>98154976
>1st campaign I played a paladin, got to around level 3-4 it was just as 5e came out so I lose track
>2nd campaign I played as a paladin/warlock went to level 6
>3rd campaign I DM'd went to level 9
>4th campaign I played as an artificer and it went to level 7
>5th campaign I DM'd went to level 11 (just hit 6th level spells)
>6th campaign I played a fighter and it went to level 5
>7th campaign I'm currently running is at level 6
These are the major campaigns though. If I include all the campaigns that got maybe 1-3 sessions that would add, let me count
>Ravnica campaign
>Some fucking wilderness campaign hexcrawl thing that died after 1 session
>I missed the first session then it died
>Got 2 sessions in then it died, something with undead
>Haunted house, did one fight, took a break then never came back to it
>West marshes campaign that got one session in, apparently it got further with other people but the DM was a cunt
>Mini campaign where we saved a gnome village from a giant, 4 sessions at level 5-6

So in total that's around one out of 14 campaigns just 7.14% got to level 6 spells. So yes 93% of my games never cared about 6th level spells.

>>98154961
>>98155020
Conversely, 100% of my d&d campaigns that were at least 1 year long reached level 9 spells. Maybe you just don't play long or frequently enough.

Anyway in my current campaign I'm at a point where enemies that aren't even minibosses get to use level 9 spells, and the choice available is abysmal. I started digging for interesting 3/3.5 spells to rewrite, example:

Crushing Fist of Spite, level 9 evocation
Casting time: 1 action, Components: VSM
Range: 150 ft.
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

A fist of darkness appears up to 30 feet above the ground and begins smashing down with incredible power. All creatures within a 5 ft. radius, 30 ft. tall cylinder centered on a point within your range must make a DEX saving throw and take 15d6 force damage on a failed one, or half as much on a successful one. Each round as a bonus action you can direct the first to another area within range, where it smashes downward again. It continues to attack the same area each round (no actions required) unless otherwise directed.

>>98155212
I have never seen a PC cast a level 9 spell. I would put money on that being the case for the majority of people.

>>98155220
I'd put money down on the majority of people have never played D&D at all.

>>98156067
>you people hate everything
No, people have just consistently--and correctly--noted that domains are the most logical division of cleric into subclasses. They're strong thematic concepts that naturally lend themselves to exclusive ability progressions and are fundamentally tied to the source of the character's power. Subclasses are very consistently about the source of a character's extraordinary abilities ("I draw power from runes", "My blood runs with the power of dragons", "I have made a bargain with a devil", "I have studied the secrets of divination"), while features like Divine Order, Primal Order, and Fighting Style cover how a character APPLIES their abilities ("I am an expert marksman", "I work miracles in the name of my god", "I take up arms to defend nature from those who would despoil it").

>im done giving a shit about your idiotic opinions

In 5e Lesser Restoration cured a disease or condition, but in the '24 edition LR only cures a condition. Is there another spell that cures disease? If not then I'm just going to use the '14 Lesser Restoration rules.

>Perhaps the biggest AI software application question that would come up, when looking over these categories, is "How will Sixth Wall's software apply to Dungeons & Dragons in the future?" As an example, in RPGs, the mannerisms of non-player characters (NPCs) have traditionally been role-played differently from GM to GM. It is possible that WotC could use this software to standardize the personalities of notable NPCs and have them actually interact with players at the table, via audio on a laptop, tablet, or smart phone (individual character personalities could be purchased as microtransactions). This possibility is, of course, only the tip of the iceberg for CharacterOS.

A: I wish I'd had the money for the All-In box, though I probably would have shifted the plushies to someone else.

B: I wish I didn't have to wait until the 4th quarter of 2027 for the goods.

C: I kind of wish it weren't tied to current D&D, but whatever.

D: Related to "A," I wish I had enough money that what I DID buy didn't hurt so much.

Having said all that, I can't wait. The sad thing is, I'm mostly getting it just as inspirational material, since I haven't had a group for about a decade.

I didn't catch all of the streams of their play sessions, so I'll be going back and watching those.

Given how much things had slowed, I was surprised they hit their 13 mill goal, and really amazed that they blew through their 14 and 15 mil goals, to say nothing of creeping past their "emergency" 16 mil stretch goal. They really got their fans hyped up during the final day livestream.

I don't care about the sports rules, but the combining mecha rules sound intriguing.

I guarantee that my only chance to play an in-person game of this, would be to run it and, frankly, the last campaigns I ran were 3.5e and D20 Modern, which was basically the same thing. I only played one or two sessions of 4, and one or two of 5, and have refused to buy any of WoTC's post 3.5 stuff, so I'm not remotely qualified to run a game based on current rules, even if I wanted to.

Doesn't stop me from trying to decide what race and subclass I'd play, if I could.

>i hope theyre paying the artist who does all of their youtube shorts his deserved cut (they wont)

On a more fun note: The species/classes I'm currently most interested in playing would be an Oozoid Exomech Soldier/Powertech Tracer, a Clawderan, possibly also a Powertech Tracer, or an Anitron that looks like a Sorayama painting (picrel), not sure what class it would be, though.

I want to play an Scourge Aasimar Architect of Ruin Illrigger that uses two small sporting axes (mechanically daggers) and a big fuckoff executioner sword (mechanically greataxe) that he holds the scabbard in combat and instead of strength, uses his will to make it strike harder than it should be able to, retreating it back into the scabbard to clean the blood off it with one fell swoop.

>The idea behind Behavioral Licensing is to preserve the manner in which a popular character thinks, speaks, and acts, which goes beyond identifying a character (for IP purposes) by how they appear.

Level 5 Bladesinger:
Rapier + Booming Blade + Shield (ASI: +1 DEX, +1 INT)
OR
Shortsword + Scimitar (Dual Wielder feat)
The second option deals slightly more damage thanks to the synergy between the shortsword and scimitar, which effectively give you two attacks with your action, while Dual Wielder adds a third attack. With this setup, my AC would be 20.

The first option deals less damage. In fact, after doing some calculations, Rapier + Booming Blade actually does slightly less damage than simply casting Toll the Dead. However, it gives you +2 AC from using a shield, which can potentially raise your defenses to 23 AC at level 5 while Bladesong is active.
Thinking about it a bit more, Human with Alert and Tough would probably be the better fit for a Rapier + Booming Blade + Shield build, while a Harengon, who can jump out of an enemy's reach without provoking opportunity attacks and basically has its own version of Alert, would be better suited for a Shortsword + Scimitar build
Is Rapier + Booming Blade enough to avoid being dead weight if I want to play a frontliner Bladesinger?

>>98159047
5e 2024 by the way

>>98159047
do you already have warcaster?

>>98143335
Make sense to make the princess more special than a regular noble

>>98159106
Right now I'm not playing a Bladesinger; it's more of a hypothetical scenario.
We usually start at level 3, or sometimes at level 5, so that's where my question comes from.
>warcaster
I didn't consider it because I was focused on damage. But it's not a bad option. Would you say I should prioritize it? Why?

>>98159133
if a spell requires a somatic component but not a material component, you need 1 hand available to make the somatic gestures, and both hands are full with a sword and shield/dual wielding.

File: 1777394771268504.png (86.1 KB)

>>98159133
warcaster also lets you use booming blade as an attack of opportunity. or earthen grasp or even cast buff spells on allies who would trigger an attack of opportunity on you

tying up your bonus action for a 1d8 (you can wield a short sword + rapier with dual wielder) is weak compared to locking down enemies with something like pic related.

>booming blade the target
>move sphere next to them

they either move and eat booming blade, or don't move and eat flaming sphere

or even as a reaction
>they try to move away from teh sphjere at teh end of the turn
>booming blade
>same situation

>>98159145
mmm okay, then yes, it should be prioritized, especially because Shadow Blade requires somatic components so you're right.
If i prioritizing War Caster, I'd lean more toward the Rapier build, since Shortsword + Scimitar isn't really that special without Dual Wielder

>>98159187
Oh wait, after reading the Bladesinger 2024 rules more carefully, I realized that using a shield actually disables Bladesong. I was wrong about that build then

>>98159177
You convinced me. In that case, I'll go with the War Caster feat
Now, in terms of weapons, I think I'll stick with a shortsword and scimitar. It generally deals more damage than a rapier, even without Dual Wielder, especially since the shortsword can grant advantage on the scimitar attack if it hits. And I'll take War Caster (like you suggested) so I can cast spells when needed and use Booming Blade for opportunity attacks at level 5

>>98159226

Is the Dhampir from the new Ravenloft book any different from Asterion’s Book of Hunger?

I think that Telekinetic and Speedy are also good general feats for a Bladesinger ngtl

How do you make an interesting hexcrawl map?

I'm trying make a steppe setting, but I feel like I end up with maps diverse and dense enough to no longer feel like a steppe or too monotonous. The campaign premise is that the PCs desert from the army of an evil warlord, steal some horses, and go adventuring.

>>98159621

Are you showing the players the map or keeping it hidden?

>>98159621
If you mean in a general gameplay sense, you tend to want to have a lot of locations to find. The more hexes that have something, be it a village or a dungeon, the better. Those can also be hidden as well, but you tend to want to avoid empty hexes.
If you do have empty hexes, you want to make sure to have a very robust random encounter table that can ensure that there's more in a single hex than 2d6 goblins.

If you mean from a player-facing side in terms of terrain, my suggestion would be to divide up the areas by something other than terrain. Obviously there's still room to have some bits of trees or hills or desert amid the sprawling grasslands, but you might also want to just plop down areas of hexes that are "gnoll territory" or "endless thunderstorm" or similarly key things.
Places that can still undoubtedly be steppes, but have something special going from them that stands out from the other portions of grassland. That can be a weird sort of weather, the territory of some specific faction/monster, some sort of magical effect like fey grasslands, and so on.

Unfortunately it's an INT-based configuration via True Strike, which demands that you have proficiency with the weapon used in its casting. I would only have a +3 to hit, which is not very good, even at low levels.

Theoretical question: Say you have a cleric and a wizard at a locked door. The cleric casts Silence on the door and the Wizard casts Knock on the lock outside of the range of Silence. Knock makes a loud noise that extends 300 feet, but with Silence there would a noise still emanate?

>Living Shadow
>The shadow you cast is animate and ever-present—sometimes it even acts according to its own will. You gain the following features.

>Grasping Shadow. You learn the Mage Hand spell and can cast it without spell components. Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma is your spellcasting ability for this spell (choose when you select this feat).

>Lengthened Strike. When you make a melee attack roll as part of the Attack or Magic action on your turn, you can increase your reach for that attack by 10 feet, as your shadow stretches to aid you. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

>Ominous Will. Immediately after you make a D20 Test and roll a 1 on the d20, your shadow attempts to exert its will. Make a Wisdom saving throw (DC 13 plus your Proficiency Bonus). On a failed save, you have the Incapacitated condition until the start of your next turn, at which point you must roll on the Shadow’s Will table to determine what you do during that turn.
The table being 1 is spend all your movement to run in a random direction and end your turn. 2-6 you attack a random creature. 7-8 you go prone and end your turn
This happens every single d20 roll you ever make from the moment you begin the campaign till it ends. All so one of your attacks can be made with more reach a couple of times a day

>>98160948
I'd argue it would, but you are effectively using two spell slots for one effect.

>>98160948
I'd run it that way

>>98160948
Reading the spells explains the spells. Silence blocks sound from passing through it and knock starts from the object. The only catch is the wizard needs to say their verbal components outside the silence field which isn’t a big deal versus the loud knock sound

>>98160948
The real question is what happens if the lock isn't within the area of silence, but there's a band of silence around the area. Does the sound get stopped by the silence, or does it somehow continue on the other side of it?

>>98160924
I don't know (the tiger?), but something I'd like to add is that that tiger isn't really the ranger's spirit beast because it doesn't have any magical markings on its body.
The Beast Master probably has his Beast of the Sky scanning the area from above.

I remember correctly they had a ton of backgrounds and feats exclusive to faerun groups. Any DM would have to ignore those rules to use in their own settings.

Been hearing good things about the Ravenloft book. Maybe I'll pick it up at my lgs
