    D&D 5E Bigger monsters do more damage

    Oh, whoops! Should have checked that first! Well, maybe this kind of change will make it a CR 30, and an incentive to bring back some of the missing age categories to fill in lower CR areas. ;)

    D&D 5E Bigger monsters do more damage

    I'd say more around 174 hp, but! there's a good chance either via magic items or spells he can mitigate a lot more. Conversely, the wizard's only likely to have around 72 hp or so. But honestly, this is a CR 30 creature in the first place, it ought to be deadly. The change to CR would have to...

    D&D (2024) New D&D Edition's Player’s Handbook Cover Reveal

    Agreed. Similarly, was never really enthused with E.T., and bailed when trying to watch it again recently.

    D&D (2024) New D&D Edition's Player’s Handbook Alternate Art Cover Reveal

    🤔 I like the border art and background, not so sold on the picture.

    D&D General Tips for starting at higher-level?

    From what I remember of my higher level games, the party is past the point where gathering information is a problem or a goal (such as a mundane murder mystery or puzzle or trap). It has to switch to knowing what to do with the information they've received. Likewise, high-level characters...

    D&D 5E Long time players and 5e’s success

    This ship, the Fallen Star? I wanted to get that, from what I've seen of it at our FLGS, but I already had a paper ship I put together called the Maiden. Although, for Christmas a year or two back my brother surprised me with the Wizkids Tiamat "miniature". Not something I would have...

    D&D 5E Long time players and 5e’s success

    No clue, probably 10% to 15%. But it should also be noted Wizkids isn't getting the full MSRP price - there's distributors and merchants in-between them and the end price, so Wizkids might make 1/2 to 1/4 the MSRP price for each item they sell, and then WotC gets its 10% to 15% cut of that...

    D&D (2024) New D&D Edition's Player’s Handbook Cover Reveal

    Strangely, yes. Though almost all the starter boxed sets have a dragon on them.

    D&D 5E Long time players and 5e’s success

    I'm now in my 50's, but I've lost count of the people I've introduced to D&D and then who have turned around and introduced their friends to D&D as well. I don't spend a whole lot on WotC products now because frankly they aren't putting out stuff as fast as they did in the past (thank...

    D&D (2024) More D&D 2024 Tidbits: Aasimar, Goliaths, Town-Eating Gelatinous Cubes

    How much is Wizkids going to charge for the Cube? I'm curious to see what the "final" Bastion rules end up as. I had a lot of comments on it, and I'm curious what, if any feedback they incorporated. I am also glad that the old "9th level stronghold" fare from past editions is returning and...

    D&D General So, how much did/do you use psionics?

    I tried using it in 1E for a couple monsters (Mind Flayers, Intellect Devourers, Su Monsters), but I think I only had one player who ever ended up with psionics and I don't remember what happened to said PC. I do remember it was a hassle to comprehend and a bigger pain to run and I'd fudge the...

    D&D (2024) Greyhawk Confirmed. Tell Me Why.

    Can't wait to see the 1000 page thread on the Scarlet Brotherhood when the DMG comes out. Good times.

    D&D (2024) What do people think of the new dragon designs?

    I'd rather go back to the days when the artist could pretty much draw them how they wanted and didn't have to stick to a design sheet template. You could have as many variations of how a red dragon looks as there are different expressions of beholders. Or humans, for that matter.

    D&D 5E Homebrew: How to modify Shield spell?

    Yeah, that spell is a kluge that shouldn't really exist or be higher level. At the least it should require light armor proficiency. Probably a shorter duration (1 hour) as well.

    D&D 5E Homebrew: How to modify Shield spell?

    If you want an "always available shield", then I do think you should either multiclass or take a feat that gives you proficiency. Not rely on a spell.

    D&D (2024) The D&D Cartoon Heroes In The 2024 PHB

    They would have had to pay licencing fees for the actor's images to put them in/on the books. With it looking like these may be teetering on loss leader first release costs, I don't think they wanted that. Regdar's dead, dude.

    Yeah, it's just done in the style of action movie posters for the last 10 years or so - orange/blue.
