    D&D 5E (2014) Vecna: Eve of Ruin Coming May 21st!

    You do realize about 99% of all threads and I bet 100% of all adventure threads don't receive any new post within a week or two of the book being released. Your comment is akin to saying: "You know that water is wet right?!" To be clear, I agree that this is a bad adventure. However, that has...

    D&D 5E (2024) Let's Write A High Level Adventure

    Wrath of the Righteous is a Pathfinder game so mythic tiers are RAW. Though as this is a 5e thread it is outside the parameters of this exercise as you suggest.

    D&D 5E (2024) Let's Write A High Level Adventure

    In Chains of Avernus the PCs (levels 11-20) are pursued by a pair of Devil brothers that are both CR 21 and you must kill both in the same round to finish them off. It can be a very dangerous conflict that could occur at any point in the adventure.

    D&D 5E (2024) Let's Write A High Level Adventure

    @Reynard, have you looked at Chains of Asmodeus? Is is "semi-official," created as a possible follow up to Descent in Avernus and is levels 11-20. Also, it is not "save the world" adventure, but save the soul or your friends / loved ones. It is a loner adventure so it doesn't meet all your...

    GOD RULES: Player's Guide (5e) Previews/Discussion

    To follow up my previous post, how does someone do a late pledge? Maybe because I am a backer, but all pledge options are blocked (expect my pledge) when I look at the Kickstarter. EDIT: Never mind - I just opened the kickstarter in another browser and I can see the pledge options now.

    GOD RULES: Player's Guide (5e) Previews/Discussion

    @Upper_Krust can people still pledge for the Kickstarter? I had someone DM me on reddit asking how to get the book and when it was available. I directed them to the kickstarter but I wasn't 100% sure that was the best option.

    D&D 5E (2014) Building a Better Ankheg

    Absolutely! I haven't looked at these in a long time, so they could be a bit out of day (in fact I know they are as I haven't made a "champion" in years). Anyway, here are a series of Ankheg's I made some time ago. Ankheg Broodling (standard, CR 1/4) Ankheg Drone (standard, CR 1) Ankheg Queen...

    Wizards of the Coast Re-Registers Dark Sun With USPTO

    But Eberon is the most supported setting outside of FR and possibly Ravenloft. There is a DMsGuild book with official support. The WotC campaign book (which many consider the best campaign book of the 5e era up until at least the new FR books), and a new WotC book on the way and several setting...

    D&D General Explain 5(.5)e to me

    IDK, we play 5e pretty much the same way we played 1e 40 years ago. For me, as the DM, it is a lot easier to run a 5e game than a 1e game and the art is better. I also like design of monsters better in 5e (generally).

    D&D General Mike Mearls says control spells are ruining 5th Edition

    Thank you for the response and really glad to hear this part: I can't (though I guess I will have to) wait to see the final product.

    D&D General Initial Thoughts on the Two 2025 Forgotten Realms books

    That is sacrilege to most Planescape fans, but I generally agree.

    D&D General Mike Mearls says control spells are ruining 5th Edition

    Thank you for response! Any chance you can give us more insight on what the original design team thought about "modular" design and how it was implemented in 5e? You may or may not be aware, but that is an often debated subject on these boards. Also, I've been following your Odyssey work and it...

    Godzilla Roleplaying Game Launching in 2026

    From another article I read on this topic you play people trying to fight the monster threat. I do agree it is a missed opportunity. I will still check it out to see how it compares to my Godzilla stats: Godzilla (Legendary) Godzilla (Earth)

    D&D General Mike Mearls says control spells are ruining 5th Edition

    We only know that some people or person wanted it. We do know a major person who expressed those desires left the company to start his own early on during the design process (before the playtest IIRC). So we do don't know how much the overall design team wanted that or how strong they wanted it.

    D&D General Mike Mearls says control spells are ruining 5th Edition

    Well I don't know that those are holes people were asking for or talked about much* during the playtest, but those have absolutely been covered by 3PP. However, how to you know they are "holes," aka areas they designed for but never filled in? I believe that is basically what you described in...

    D&D General Mike Mearls says control spells are ruining 5th Edition

    I am not sure I agree with your statement, but I am curious. What holes are you talking about? I ask primarily because whatever perceived holes 5e has I feel they have been filled by 3pp (or my own homebrew as no one does armor as DR correctly IMO).

    Any DM can kill a PC or get a TPK with trivially little effort. The art of the DM is an making a challenging, interesting, exciting, and engaging encounter that doesn't lead to a TPK.
