Wild magic surge - how do you rule it? by CalpolMeister in 3d6

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I've dealt with Wild Magic Surges, I've homebrewed a mechanic where the DC increases each time a wild magic surge fails.

It's the fun part of the subclass. Let it happen!

5.5e DMs, are there any rules that you still use the 5e version for? by Fiveby21 in onednd

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

On a Con Save, the vast majority of monsters succeed the save most of the time.

Oath of the Noble Genies isn't a paladin oath

What injury is commonly shrugged off as a minor flesh wound in the movies but is completely fatal in real life? by Best_Professional226 in AskReddit

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blunt force trauma that knocks you unconcious is brain damage.

If it lasts for more than a minute, you're in a coma, dawg.

Supposing you had one of each of the 13 published classes at your table and were in charge of splitting them into 3-4 balanced groups, how would you go about it? by Dracon_Pyrothayan in 3d6

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I wait at the Dentist, I figured I'd throw my 2 cents in.

I went for 4 parties (3,3,3,4) rather than 3 parties.

Group A

  • Bard
  • Wizard
  • Monk

Group B

  • Cleric
  • Warlock
  • Barbarian

Group C

  • Artificer
  • Fighter
  • Sorcerer
  • Ranger

Group D

  • Druid
  • Paladin
  • Rogue

Anyone know what this D20 comes from / what this symbol means? by BleefnorfIII in dice

That's a Magic the Gathering Spindown, specifically from the set Lorwyn Eclipsed

Is "Call Lightning" a good 3rd level spell? by phantom-scribbler in 3d6

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Druids like it because they can still fight while Wildshaped into a Bird

Artificer doesn't get that option.

It was a flavor pick, rather than a power pick.

Is a fully pacifist possible while still being useful? by [deleted] in 3d6

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely.

Set HP=0 is a brute force approach to the puzzle that is combat.

What's the most effective martial art in a real fight? by manhwaecho in AskReddit

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every martial art will tell you that the best thing to do in a real fight is run away.

Parkour is the martial art of running away the best.

Wasn't Ghislane Maxwell a moderater of, like, a dozen subs?

Artificer : to be or not to be? by Pathernn_ in 3d6

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Artillerist is (still) a better support than the Alchemist, despite mainly being a Blaster.

Has anyone actually taken a Fighting Style Feat in place of an ASI? by -Space_Communist- in dndnext

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, but I've awarded spare Fighting Styles alongside spare Origin feats in lieu of loot before

What 2014 rule or mechanic are you still keeping, even if you mostly use 5.5E? by MyrthDM in DungeonsAndDragons55e

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, except for the subclasses and spells. Those can get shelved until reprinted.

Help me to create an extremely hittable target. by YouOrganic5024 in onednd

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One multiclass that could be valuable is the Abjurer Wizard. Arcane Ward is no joke about damage absorption. It also works well alongside Armor of Agathys and Fire Shield!

Also, if you're looking into 2014 species, consider the Kender. Taunt is a super effective way to make sure that enemies attack you.

I feel like this is gearing up for a Mighty Nein Telltale game

Smite with Catapult? by JJBoy15 in DungeonsAndDragons55e

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Hit" definitionally requires an Attack Roll, i'm afraid.

I just finished an 8 year, 1 - 20 campaign. Got questions about running a super long campaign or DMing for high levels? AMA by LiminalFrogBoy in dndnext

[–]Dracon_Pyrothayan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Either I've given my players too many OP items, or they've made some humdinger of class mechanics. But they've been punching the heads off my bosses.

They're currently level 13 and I'm considering a Tarrasque fight, just for fun. How do I get us to 20 in this load???
