    D&D 5E Advice: Cooking/healing half feat

    So... I am looking for a half-feat geared towards cooking, that isn't as lame as Chef or Gourmand. Ideally I am looking for something that requires preparing a meal after (a short or long rest) for X people, which gives them some amount of Temp HP. My current concept is built off of the...

    Which items count towards number of permanent magic items

    I posted this on FB, but I don't have a lot of faith in that medium. I am trying to determine precisely which items still count as a permanent magic item once they are no longer useful. When they get destroyed, or run out of uses, or can't be recharged, or..... From what I can tell, the...

    D&D 5E Opinions on Bladesinger

    I don't have SCAG yet, and one of my players is planning on converting his level 4 PC into a Bladesinger. Any opinions? How powerful is this? Anything I need to be aware of? The cantrips seem powerful, but not all *that* powerful... but their 'power up' ability seems pretty boss. (The one...

    Summon Monster duration

    3rd level caster casts Summon Monster. Rd 1: Summon it next to bad guy. Monster attacks Rd 2: Monster attacks Rd 3: Monster attacks Rd4: ?? When does the monster go away? A) Right after Rd 3? B) Right before Rd 4? C) Right after it attacks on Rd 4? I think B, but am not sure. (that also...

    Bard/sorcerer PrC's

    I have only found one or two, and they had pretty steep requirements. (as I recall) I am hoping for a 'Mystic Theurge' type solution, but would be open to other ideas. (I have a player that didn't know the system very well, and he has multi-classed Sor4/Brd2; and is a bit...underpowered. Now...

    Nerfs for Natural Spell

    To start, this thread is assuming that Natural Spell is overpowered. Thus I don't need a ton of reasons why it isn't overpowered. My gamers, however, are not big into powergaming, so even overpowered things aren't that worrisome. But I would like to keep the Druid from too outdistancing the...

    Sanghirn questions

    Sangehirn can be found here: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/psm/20040625c 1) Does the DR from the class ability stack with the DR from BioFeedback? (does DR stack in general?) 2) Does the Healing Touch ability work only with asterix'd powered selected as a Sangehirn, or will it...

    Spontaneous casting 'cost'

    One of my players came to me, wondering about using a higher level slot for a lower level spell. I said, sure, of course. But they discovered he wanted to be able to spontaneously do it. My players (particularly this one) are pretty good about not powergaming, and if I tell them they can use...

    Are gold coins universal?

    **EDIT**:I was not clear on the poll, and I can't figure out how to edit the choices. The second one should be "gold coins are valued the same, but are minted differently, so you often have to convert to the local coinage." I was having a discussion on another board, and this topic came up. We...

    How long does Pin last?

    So, if you have pinned someone, do you have to 're-pin' them next round??

    Combat Expertise at range

    You can 'attack' 'empty space' in order to activate Combat Expertise. When you perform a full attack, you can mix ranged and melee attacks. So, an archer with 4 attacks could 'attack' 'empty space' next to him as a melee attack, and activate Combat Expertise. Thus his next 3 attacks, all...

    Using your XP instead of Mage XP

    I don't like being able to just 'swap' XP responsibility. But I may be willing to do it for a 'cost'. I was wondering what people thought would be balanced. For instance, a player wants to get Alarm cast on an item. It is 450gp, +500XP. So that is normally 2950gp. But I was thinking of...

    Able Learner Feat

    I don't have RoD, so perhaps I am missing some key information. But from what I know, Able Learner is a feat that makes *all* skills cost the same as class skills. This sounds pretty darn powerful to me, am I missing something?

    Wand, etc. saving throws

    Okay, a saving throw is DC 10+spell level+abilty modifier. How is this handled for wands, scrolls, staves, etc. (The ability modifier is the tricky part for my little brain...)

    Astral Construct BAB

    I cannot figure out how they are doing the BAB and final ToHit for the astral constructs, they do not seem to fit the pattern. Is there an errata, or am I just totally dense? I am guessing that it may have to do the the +10 hp at first level, but not sure how. For example, at 1HD, they have a...

    Bard Sorcerer multi build/PrC needed

    Okay, two of the (arguably) weaker classes, bard and sorcerer. Somehow, one of my players has managed to make a 4th level character brd2/sor2. (edit: By 'made', he played it that way from first level.) I was reading a Mystic Theurge thread and it got me thinking if I could come up with a MT...

    scrolls of higher level

    I was just reading the rules for activating scrolls. Assuming it is on your spell list, and same type of magic (arcane/divine), and you have the requisite ability score.... There is only a 5% chance per level difference? If a 5th level wizard wants to cast a 6th level spell, he rolls a D20+5...

    Best Heroes game to start

    Okay, I realize this is like asking which DnD edition is the best.... My group is thinking about changing campaigns and playing superhero game, but most of us have little or no experience with recent ones. I am looking to find information about their pros and cons, so we can decide which is...
