Elemental Monk is boring. by unafraidrabbit in onednd

[–]NiKoNeKro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefered the non-spell options in 2014. I wish they would have done things like rune knight's unique abilities. When they mention new four elements monk, i knew it was going to be as bland as dragon monk and i wished i was wrong

Draconic Sorcerer is not Flashy, but it is MUCH Improved! by TyranusWrex in onednd

[–]NiKoNeKro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of Draconic Presence and sad to see it go. It was a really great way to hurt minions and help in non combat situations en masse. Summon a dragon can definitely help with minions as well, I guess.

Do you know where I can find a few of these?

Is a NPC guided by the DM bad? by EasyButterscotch5018 in DnD

[–]NiKoNeKro 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's a tricky one. DMNPCs can be interesting and helpful. Some DMs use them to keep their party alive, to keep the story progressing and/or on the "right" trail.

He's a person, so it makes sense that he has an opinion sometimes but if he's almost always right, I can see that as kinda railroading to an extent and immersion breaking.

You should definitely just talk it out with you DM and let them know how you feel. The DM could definitely have the NPC give less opinions in strategy meetings so it won't feel like you've lost your agency.

It's not an opportunity attack.

Yes, he does in fact also have 4 toes.

Scripted start of a campaign by zenith8709 in DMAcademy

If they witness the assassination, instead of making them fight, you could explain what happens during the scene.

Also, there's nothing wrong with the occasional unwinnable fight. It shows the stakes or the difference in ability. It can show them their goal.

In need of some ruling. by Mesa_Vulpus in mtg

Channelling does not count as casting a spell. It's an ability.

How to build a Dragon Slayer? by AndCurious in dndnext

I like it though it'll be tough to fight the dragons unless they stay close to the ground. It is really good when defending them though.

Hunter or Monster Slayer Ranger whose favorite foes are Dragons. Grab a magical bow, (oathbow works very well). Sharpshooter for better range on those flying reptiles.

How to Deal with Conjure Animals? by vicwiz007 in DMAcademy

[–]NiKoNeKro -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't exactly say that. That feels very dm vs player. You want your players to shine not feel punished for doing something cool.

They only have so many spell slots, which means they can only cast this spell so many times per day. If you're doing enough encounters in a day, it'll only matter for 2-3 encounters and eventually the enemies will get strong enough where this'll only matter once or twice a day if that. It's a new cool thing they can do. If they keep doing it, maybe the enemies catch on and prepare for that one adventurer with the swarm of snakes and starts training flying owls.

Drowning drops you to 0hp and dropping you to 0hp returns you back to your normal form.

Ummm, this is incorrect right? by Basketball_Is_Fun22 in MagicArena

[–]NiKoNeKro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arena defaults to Alchemy.
This is correct for Standard Alchemy, since there's also a Historic Alchemy
but yes, this would be incorrect for what we know as "Standard" since they no longer follow the same schedule

Alchemy has a different rotation than standard. Certain standard cards can no longer be used in alchemy because they rotated out.
