    D&D (2024) GWM feat and ranged weapons?

    I know. I aknowledged it already.

    D&D (2024) GWM feat and ranged weapons?

    I think so too. But I also think since turns are simulous, penalties could last for the whole turn.

    D&D (2024) GWM feat and ranged weapons?

    I like the last part and have already proposed that a few times. Instead of your first part, I think you should keep disadvantage for your ranged attacks even if you can move out of melee somehow.

    D&D General 2024 Monster Creation

    Since the Monster Manual was not finished when the DMG went to the printer, everything they had written in the latter would probably be outdated in a few months, when the actual book drops. So either put the guidelines in the MM or in a later splat book with tons of DM's toolbox extras. Like...

    D&D (2024) Thief Rogue / True Strike

    Ah, now I understand what you meant. Thanks for clarifying. See. This is what I mean with "clever" players always find loopholes. So I am lucky, that my players have not tried to pull such tricks. And I won't do that to them in return. Maybe if someone gets that "clever" I remind them that...

    D&D (2024) Thief Rogue / True Strike

    No problem. It is when people start setting triggers to get extea damage because of some loop hole when things get messy. So if people only use ready for what it was intended: to occasionally act on different times than your native order in initiative line, no problem. Standard use for your...

    D&D (2024) Thief Rogue / True Strike

    No. That is ok. It is when the whole party starts dragging the same cleric in the same seconds back and forth. That is like realizing, oh, if I can ready an action to give a message to the next guy with the trigger "receiving a message" I can speed it up to light speed given enough persons...

    D&D (2024) Thief Rogue / True Strike

    Sorry. I can't make out sense of what you wrote her. Yes. Attacking anyone would be specific enough. It is just that your readied action won't interrupt the attack. At least you act after them. Amd if they don't attack, your readied action is wasted. I have often enough seen videos of...

    D&D (2024) Thief Rogue / True Strike

    No. Shoddy rules are no excuse for being a jerk. Especially when people would rightfully call it a foul if the DM would use those tactics against them.

    This is a perceivable circumstance. You however said: "trigger on their turn before, when they move or act" You can attack after they move or do something specific like attacking you.

    D&D (2024) Thief Rogue / True Strike

    That is no perceivable circumstance. You can make it after they act. Or when they do something specific.

    D&D (2024) Thief Rogue / True Strike

    Yes. Probably. But some words they write were indeed intentional. On the other hand I really like their paragraph on exploiting the rules. Probably thisnis how I will deal with rules exploits from now on. So technically you could read a scroll (how many hands do they use), cast trues...

    D&D (2024) Thief Rogue / True Strike

    I know a bit about formal logic. So I come to a different conclusion. I also know about how to not let powergamers ruin my games by exploiting rules.

    D&D (2024) Thief Rogue / True Strike

    It also seems clear that the ready an action rule is not thought to be used to trigger on crearure starts their turn. Starting a turn is not a perceivable trigger. Still people try to exploit that. Same goes for emanations. So I had no problem allowing scrolls to be used woth fast hands, if...
