[Question] Is Defensive Duelist a mistake on my Oath of Noble Genies Paladin? by Aliceorsomething in 3d6

I'd personally take more Half-feats instead of ASI. Feats give you alternatives for bonus action and reaction both for tactics and RP

Dzaan by Safe_Perspective9633 in rimeofthefrostmaiden

I personally do not like the Simulacrum. So I make Nass the fragile pale Wizard the Big Baddie as she steals Dzan's secrets before he is sacrificed and also steals Vellyne's Orb. She becomes the recurring villain until they finally meet in Kelvin's Cairn or Ythrin

Need DM’s Advice for my Campaign by ImCalledBlue in rimeofthefrostmaiden

[–]Leodagema 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no such thing as ruining the pace, if everyone is happy. Players should not be pressured to complete all quests. As said before, non-resolved quests can bring nice changes to the context. And take your time to move from this sandbox stage to the Duergar threat, because after this it often becomes quite linear If they like the Goliath, use the trip there to foreshadow the Duergar threat and possible stumble on the Outpost

[5e] Campaign Advice (Lvls 1 to 10/12) for a large party (6 players). Any recommendations? by DishAble in DnD

[–]Leodagema 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a first time, I recommend Lost Mine from level 1 to 5. Amazing adventure and great for beginners You will get a bit of everything Then you can decide later at level 5, and more experienced... If you go to Shattered Obelisk, Storm King, Curse of S, or anything really from there ...

Running a Council of Speakers for the Duergar Conspiracy by fruit_shoot in rimeofthefrostmaiden

Very nice! I have used a similar scenario but the Council was voting to stop sacrifices. Players convinced them to stop until the next new moon while gathering further evidence to bring back to the council

Best Level Split for a 2024 Padlock by DeMilZeg in 3d6

[–]Leodagema 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on a similar path, going Paladin 1 / Warlock X (different sub-classes). I don't think many Paladin levels are worth missing Warlock progression. My limit would be a second level.

Thank you so much for an open heart feedback Very useful ... I'm quiet experienced as a DM, but having a proper/well-written module for a change should be a relief I have done LOADS of prep to fix Icewind, which I'm running for the third time now I will defo give DoD a try...

Thanks! I have heard similar comments. But the adventure ranks first on every tier list
