    D&D General What if we gave dragonborn four arms?

    Sounds great for dragon canon.

    What if we gave dragonborn forearms?

    Draw Steel: Fake variety helps no one

    I guess the obvious response is to houserule it if you're going to run it so that everyone gets 2 points instead of 2 or 1d3.

    Old shows that you enjoy?

    Oh damn, I'd completely forgotten about that show, I remember loving it when it was in. Another show I enjoyed was Sliders. It was a show of many dimensions, truly unparalleled.

    Old shows that you enjoy?

    I might have mentioned it in my earlier post, but I've recently started rewatching cheers. Haven't seen it since the 90s.

    D&D General Weapon Mastery - Yea or Nay?

    You could probably compare the number of times dice are rolled for something closer to time taken. Assuming 5th level (I used the theatre of mind assumptions for fireball, and my own experience for calculating burning hands) A burning hands spell is probably going to hit only a couple of...

    D&D General Weapon Mastery - Yea or Nay?

    This is an interesting thread to read, I've not played/run 5.5 so haven't seen weapon mastery in play but I always felt they didn't quite work as is but otherwise looked like a good addition (I was planning on some house rules if I did move, mostly that warriors learn a weapon mastery keyword...

    D&D 5E (2014) Sorcerer vs. Wizard: Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better?

    Since damage type rarely matters, why not just allow the draconic sorcerer to cast their energy type spells as the original element or their element at will when they cast? Allows them to always get a small damage bonus when throwing converted fireballs or lightning bolts and still allows them...

    D&D General What if we gave dragonborn four arms?

    Nice, I like hearing about homebrew settings and how they mess with standard dnd lore. Thinking about it, I don't even know what the standard dnd lore is on the origin of dragonborn. Dragonborn in my setting might be a little boring by comparison, they were created from the eggs of dragons...

    D&D General What if we gave dragonborn four arms?

    Were the cultists upset by their new appearance and abilities or did they accept it as a close second to what they wanted?

    D&D General What if we gave dragonborn four arms?

    I'd just stick with giving them wings if I really felt the need to distinguish them. Otherwise they still have their breath weapon and resistances which I feel do a pretty good job at separating them from lizardfolk.

    D&D 5E (2014) Sorcerer vs. Wizard: Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better?

    Eh, whatever you want to call them, the feel of it to me was just like everyone being a caster.

    What are you reading in 2025?

    You're definitely right, being forced, or forcing yourself to read I feel really sucjs the joy out of reading. I had a flatmate who did 75 hard, and a daily requirement was reading 10 pages, not much but still if you have to rather than want to, I can't imagine enjoying it. And if you are...

    D&D 5E (2014) Sorcerer vs. Wizard: Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better?

    Yes, it is my personal perception, this is a forum, it's all opinion. I don't care if you agree, I don't even think this is controversial. I also don't think this makes 4e a bad game, but feel is important and all classes felt like caster to me and many others.
