To be honest, I think the 15 foot range is enough of a limitation that you can't buff the whole party (you can only buff 2 anyway, plus yourself). I think this just needs to be buffed so this includes are spells and perhaps other non magical attacks like breath weapons

IMO this would be a balance issue IF you could trigger this ward in response to an AoE. But you can't. The only spell that has multiple targets with spell attack or dex saves that I am aware of is scorching ray!

Another thing some of you may have missed: the benefits (+5 AC and advantage to dex saves) is only against the triggering spell, instead of during until the start of your next turn like shield. This makes it even more niche, since if the spell triggering the maneuver is not an attack or dex...

Love the maneuver, on paper at least. It seems perfect to resist some dragon breath weapon, but it's pretty clear it only protects against spells... Actually, you can only use the reaction if you or an ally are target of a spell with duration of one round or less. This now excludes debuffs...

IT turned out i t was just my insecurity against something not "orthodox". He said he woyld think a out it, but in a tone im prettybsure he will accept it. Another reason is we had a bad experience with 3rd party unbalanced content in the early 5e years. But anyway, thanks everybody for your...

I like this idea, if its problematic, we can easily go back and change. About the specific spell, i think the fact thst it affects only one creature kinda balances the fact it can restrain a flying creature (which is very strong indeed). The only thing the feels out of place is the damage while...

My wildborne ranger (1/3 spellcasting archetype of the new ranger) wants to learn the spell ensnaring strike. It feels fitting for a ranger (since its a ranger spell in dnd 5e), specially the character I envision. But the problem is wildborne rangers cast druid spells, and this spell is not in...

Wow. Thanks a lot guys. I will have a look at that supplement, a tanking tradition is enough of an incw tive to buy a new book. I was thinking of protection fighting style, but haven't considered marshal to multiclass. That's interesting, I will.have a read. Awesome tips, hats off for this...

Thanks for the tips! I had my eye for the ones you mentioned as "broken" (the extra reaction one and stunning assault), but i was thinking there would be maneuvers to help me be more effective with a shield. I completely miss those, unless they are in a supplement somewhere. I was thinking of...

Hello all What do you think would be good combat traditions and maneuvers for a full tank sword and board fighter (which may or may not multiclass to herald in the future) I like planning my character concepts to levels 10-12 even if im starting at level 1, so feel free to include level 2 and...

It looks like something that could be done a template for. How do I "behemothsize" regular monster. Like I behemoth ogre, an oversized (maybe huge) ogre design for a solo monster for low level parties. Complete with legendary actions and climb and weakness mechanics

I personally prefer less bulky characters to instead have a way of recovering hit points mid fight. I am very happy with A5E decision to make the "heal as a bonus action" feature of the fighter (sorry, forgot the name) into a maneuver everyone that wants staying power (and has access to the...

I agree the monk is not typically the hulkiest guy, but i think he deserves at least a d10. He certainly feels more "in your face" than a ranger (with a d10) or a cleric (d8)

Solution (and im not sure asking for a homebrew solution) seems to be simply increase their hit die (to d10 probably). But i do agree with you, another thing that would change (if i was going to mess with hit dice at all would be to demote ranger to d8. If you want to be in meele and take hits...

Exactly this. A5e monster stat's format, additional info (such as signs and behavior) and features (favourite spells in the stat block, more bonus actions and reactions, legendary resistance have downsides to the creature, etc) are so far superior to any other I ever found that I just want all...

Yeah, i was looking for monster, but i settled for the WOTC version

That's all good, thanks a lot guys. I will look into those

Thanks, I'll checknit out. But they are not in the Monstrous Menagerie with any other name? And if not, are there plans to put them on MM2?

Quick question. What is the equivalent of Yuan ti in A5e? I suppose you could not use the name Yuan ti for "WOTC are a prick" issues

Tha ks, good to know. I thought that was the case but I found best to ask anyway
