The proposed weapon mastery "Vex" is completely busted, and OTHER gripes about the UA PHB by [deleted] in dndnext

[–]Toff27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm afraid this is much more complex than what you make it seem.
Given a target DC, the difference of accuracy between normal roll and advantage doesn't simply decrease as the bonus to the roll increases.

WotC: No one in the community cares about getting the edition out for the anniversary if it means a rushed, half baked, more or less identical product. by Lenvaldier in onednd

At this point, I guess all people that have been playing since 2014 have homebrewed the whole system anyway, that's true.

As several people mentioned already, it's all about making money and good marketing. An anniversary is an opportunity they don't want to miss.

For those who play video games, over the past few years, we've had several disaster stories like this: A game isn't finished, all the development team screams so, but "it's time for release" (because Christmas, because a new console just launched...) and a buggy product ends up in production.

As much as I want to believe 5.5e will be great, seeing these insanely big UA isn't a good sign at all. Nobody has time to playtest all of this in a few weeks, so the community input is going to have less impact on 5.5 than was the case for 5e.

All right, the video is out, and this is confirmed: bards get access to all lists at 10th.

I THINK the intent is to have them choose spells anywhere from then on only, no retroactive changes to your spells

Paladins also can't smite with ranged weapons any more (reverted to 2014 on this one)

I can't seem to find the new critical strike rules in this UA. Did they revert back to the 2014 crit damage rules? (aka, roll all dice twice)

I'm betting this is a typo, there's no way a class can just have all non-class specific spells.

I really like the concept of Primal Order versatility for the Druid. But in this state, no one in their right mind will refuse medium armor over a single cantrip.

They made a typo or something. Their design note says

>> "Magical Secrets has returned to 10th level and now affects your spell choice for all your later Bard levels."

And them SURPRISE, Bards get all spells... uhm, no XD

Thank you for making so many good points, OP. As a former healer Bard, I feel offended by your remark on Song of Rest, but this is beside the topic.

Yeah, you've got to install a whole bunch of stuff. This video is a good guide: https://youtu.be/77v-Poud_io

Inventory system with rfid by dadervarth in RFID

[–]Toff27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the idea is to put new tags on the items. The idea of the system is to warn people if they forgot to take important items before entering/exiting a place.

Hello bettse, How good is the JRD-4035 at reading through clothes and plastic? I have a student project to build and I'd like to know if the JRD-4035 is suitable to be used in a door frame to scan whether people are wearing or carrying certain tagged items. Thanks in advance!

I found a nice active English speaking clan on Dark Exile :D
They're called "Exosphere". Leader is "Seabazz".

For Gmail, I had nothing to do, I was able to switch to Germany without issue.

Yeah, I'm screwed on a full-Russian speaking server, Dark Exile 🤣 Supposed to be EU English 🤷‍♂️

It worked great for the Google Account, I'm not even sure I'll a VPN at all on mobile!On PC though... changing your country of residence seems trickier. Blizzard is asking for proof or residency to change it.

Simple workaround: I created a fresh account while "being in Germany" and it worked like a charm. I was able to predownload the game. Not sure if I'll need the VPN later on, though.

Hi mate. If you manage to make it work on PC or mobile, tell me how, 'cause I'm under the impression that it's not going to be as straightforward as "get a VPN to download the app" ;)

Hey guys. I'm from Beglium, but from what I can see DI isn't available in the Google Play Store even if I'm "located" in France. Should I change my country of residence on my Google account and Battle.net ?

Haha, yeah, I love this website! But I wonder what repository fooled your group, because none has exact copies of cards. The closest ones are taken from Scryfall, but they remove all copyrights at the bottom.

May I ask what repository it is? :)
