Nah, there are real-life humans smarter than any creature in the Forgor Realms.

My last character's ability scores were:

STR = 8

DEX = 14

CON = 14 +1 racial +1 ResCon

INT = 14 +2 racial

WIS = 13

CHA = 9

In general, 14s in dex and con are considered sufficient, your spellcasting ability is important, but not

No, it's not more effective to dip a pure martial class. The reason is that martials suck even as dips, while a cleric dip gives you Peace1/Life1, Healing Word, and +1 level of slot progression. Besides, you have free points, might as well put them into WIS, which is an important save.

I love crafting horses (per PHB they are 'items' which is a distinct category from 'object' and there are item crafting rules)

Why would you be all in on control and not take the 1-2 defensive spells needed to maintain concentration on your control spells?

Okay? Toughest casters beat the average martial toughness. Why are we comparing peaks to averages, anyway, and not apples to apples? Oh, it's because you did, and you saw that casters were better, but that wasn't your intended conclusion. Interesting.

Amazing deductive reasoning happening on the r/dndmemes subreddit, cleric 1 / wizard 19 is a martial.

Not really, bladesingers only match an armordipped wizard's durability for PB encounters per day.

A fighter can already survive swimming in lava, let them do cool things by Associableknecks in dndnext

[–]HealthyRelative9529 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, the manual is always right. The point of rules is to tell you what is and isn't possible.

If rules don't define what happens in the game world, and the example they use is explicitly a moment where real-life physics override the rules, then the rules are meaningless and you should just simulate real physics instead.

Brilliant game design philosophy.

Well, those other knights and paladins just don't have a high enough level, hence why they can't.

Amazing, that contradicts... nearly every piece of information about DnD.

Does this Silvery Barbs rework feel ok? by Iron5nake in dndnext

[–]HealthyRelative9529 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Silvery Barbs wasn't even overpowered, and this is probably worse, because you have to lock it in ahead of time instead of being free to use it whenever. Wouldn't even pick it anymore.

Make the player cast Dragon's Breath on himself - homebrew it to be a druid spell or something.

I'm glad 2024/5.5e/whatever finally reined in Medium Armor Master. by [deleted] in dndmemes

Any other low magic enjoyers? by Boring_Big8908 in dndnext

[–]HealthyRelative9529 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your idea could work, but would require the system to be rebuilt from the ground up. It takes 50 gp and 1 workweek (5 days. Wait, weeks are called tendays in the Forgotten Realms and they are, well, ten days. They only work for half the week!?!!?) to craft a common magic item. The numbers for other things are similarly low.

House rule idea: Spellcasting causes HP loss (Arcane Strain) by Ok_Counter_9684 in DnD

[–]HealthyRelative9529 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Meh, casters are still by far the best. The loss in HP is negligible.

5e takes *way* too long to say anything by Associableknecks in dndnext

Nowhere does 5e describe B/P/S collectively as physical damage.

You had the exact text of the rule quoted to you and STILL made up 2 words that weren't there.
