    Level Up (A5E) Playtest results using pregen characters

    There was a playtest of a lot of things, but if Press the Attack and Fall Back were involved, they were very, very low-key. I followed the whole playtest for months, and don't recall them being brought up. Also, this: "Gosh, I wonder why that is? I wouldn't respond to you if I were them" is rude...

    Level Up (A5E) Dangerous Strikes Combat maneuvere

    I also thought the same. It's a huge gamble as to whether or not the point will achieve anything at all; pretty bad design.

    Pretty sure the extra +1 comes from culture, but I may be misremembering.

    Level Up (A5E) Issue with maneuvers

    So... you're forced to take a specific feat if you want to actually get access to the maneuvers you're supposed to have at that level. I seriously dislike that. How come some classes it lines up, and others, due to the way the numbers work out, have to wait far longer? I would not play a martial...

    Level Up (A5E) Issue with maneuvers

    As it is written right now, you cannot replace a maneuver you know with one of a higher degree when you learn a new one. It must be the same degree. This means that any class that doesn't learn a new maneuver the level they gain access to a higher degree has to wait additional levels until they...

    Level Up (A5E) Level Up Class Preview: Adept

    I agree entirely with what Stalker0 wrote - especially the point about Temporary Hit Points not keeping you from falling unconscious is something I noticed myself. I'm loving this more polished version, even compared to the early preview which I already liked a lot. One note: there's a typo in...

    Blog (A5E) Crossing the Titan’s Garden

    RAINFORESTS yes, JUNGLES no. There is a difference. And please, people, stop with this fallacy of "it's fantasy so it doesn't need to be logical." It still needs internal logic to preserve verisimilitude and enable us to take the whole thing seriously as an invented place with actual rules. If...

    Absolutely agree, please consider this post, Morrus! I was very confused at seeing "snow" in a jungle, also, and would appreciate precision of language.

    Level Up (A5E) Level Up's Downtime activities

    Why would a sorcerer require books to modify their spells? And not all warlocks have anything to do with fiendish law whatsoever. Those requirements seem arbitrary to me. Otherwise, really cool stuff!

    Playtest (A5E) Level Up Playtest Document #16: Combat Maneuvers

    I came up with a somewhat broken but hilarious combo using an extrapolation of the degree scaling presented in the document and the earlier Fighter playtest, by assuming that 5th degree maneuvers are gained at 16th level. With this combo, you can zip around from enemy to enemy, critting them...
