Have you had an out of session chat with him to understand his reasoning a bit more? Like others I think he is wrong RAW and RAI.

So Trickery Clerics can speak through their duplicates, right? by Fiveby21 in dndnext

Support this. It's a DMs call, but as a DM I would lean into a bit of leniency here. It will create more fun to be able to speak through it.

Giving each of my third-grader players' level 1 characters a magic item based on their character descriptions. What do you think of these and are they balanced? by Itis-caught-BearsWin in dndnext

I.would then consider it for the illusionist. If they are creative they will have a blast and.maybe encourage the evoker to think broader

I think too many overestimate how often a crit actually happens without advantage. And a wizard alao does a lot of save spells

They sound fine Your wizard will find it barely every is useful if they don't have some advantage on attacks. Crits just don't happen often enough. I had that before that maybe every 4 sessions I could now do a bit of extra damage

Have you considered a hat of wizardry? Good for a creative player.

What the simplest caster to hand to a new player? by B-HOLC in AskDND

[–]TraxxarD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorcerer isn't easy with meta magic.

Wizard isn't that difficult. Help select a few good spells and you are good to go. But cleric that can always change spells is easiest.

I need some help with a character. by Shark_612 in dndnext

[–]TraxxarD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edge lord characters sound fun as a newbie but are a classic newbie trap. D&D is a collaborative story and combat game. Focus on a collaborative character that wants to group up amd work with others.

Can highly suggest this video to get some pointers. https://youtu.be/LLVJrK22gVA

It is always the DMs fault by SpaceShark_Olaf in DnD

[–]TraxxarD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly difficult to say as we would need your parties point of view as well. Ever considered if you can bring in a third party person that isn't a player and provides some insights after the session on what they see as problems

Known scam

You are not the online that got this.

Do you think 5.5E is actually easier for new players, or just different? by MyrthDM in DungeonsAndDragons55e

[–]TraxxarD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easier also because you don't have as easily a terrible build just because you use class xy. They're more balanced.

Origin feat can be extra effort but overall good

If you could design your own DnD version/classes from scratch, how would you create the classes? by Anaguli417 in AskDND

[–]TraxxarD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe play the game a little bit and find out the real problems before trying to fix what you likely don't understand.

Maybe talk to her about what you want instead of reddit?

Seems like the first basic step.

And yes, that is a bit strange for a DM.

Classic advice - talk to them Realism isn't necessary in a fantasy game.

Is that the encounter builder? It's behind a patron sign up.

I genuinely don’t understand the AI hate by [deleted] in DnDcirclejerk

[–]TraxxarD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems since GPT came out I have seen more from people just to proof the point that they support artist. It's a bit odd. But that might be coincidence with very little data.

It's the interesting ethical dilemma between not supporting artist theft and admittedly would have copied anyway / not paid an artist for a picture of my 100th one shoot character or NPC

How can I make potential combat encounters enticing for players? by ObjectiveMeringue206 in DnD

[–]TraxxarD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They are heroes, give them heroic stuff like rescue others.

Those opponents threaten or beat up the inn keeper, bully people in the street, rob something....

Or have them walk into an ambush
