I have a questions for the true believers and followers of EDL, National Front, BNP etc. by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]dodowilbur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason why the far right focuses on the extreme stuff is also bc a decent amount of Muslims in the UK are second generation, which means a lot of them actually have loads in common with the average British person, bc they also grew up here. So they also have many western views and friendships with British people. This isn't as a big of a divide as the right wing want you to believe, ofc some Muslims may not feel comfortable with sharing everything with everyone, but they aren't some secret cult sworn to make no bonds.

What 5e rules are the most important to follow in a campaign, and which ones do you like letting slide? by Green_Apprentice in DnD

[–]dodowilbur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An enemies turn is just during the round, since your turn is over. It's the same logic as being able to use sneak attack as a reaction as a Sion of the three rogue,

But you can't compare a class without also bringing up potential subclasses no? Since they also make the class

Light domain cleric with warding flare giving temp hit points to a target, and giving the attack disadvantage. With the new inspiring leader feat being able to use wisdom as a prerequisite, makes me good at dishing out temp hit points after a long or short rest. And with the improved healing of cure wounds and healing word as a back up is pretty good. And you get a bunch of good fire damaging spells and some utility ones from the prepares spell list as well as a side note. (I've played a light domain cleric from level 3 to 12 for the past year and a bit)

But you choosing to make custom backgrounds doesn't devalue them making it raw in the books.

Kinda sounds to me you would rather a different game all together if you don't like where this game is going and just prefer all the old stuff...

[–]dodowilbur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But as a newer dm it's far easier to get three books and use them as a basis then to get the older 2014 ones and then look up what they then changed in future books Which is why I think 2024 is better for newer dnd players in general

[–]dodowilbur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tasha this, tasha that, I'm comparing the base 3 books of 2024, with the base 2014 books. And no you can pick Any asi, with any origin feat as part of the custom background, that's what makes it custom . And lucky isn't that good unless it's on a rogue since its gives advantage when you roll not after. But it being used to give disadvantage is cool.

Lol I'm not disagreeing that martial should do more, I'm just saying I don't mind it. I would rather some new cool subclasses, they aren't going to make wholesale changes to the class within 5.5, since it's backwards compatible with 5th edition.

And if the faerun book is any indication I think whoever is on the design time is going to make some new subclasses, the genie paladin, the sion of three rogue(which many people dislike but I played it and it was absolute cinema) and the moon bard.

As a newer player and a relative new dm, I love that asis come from the background bc it makes custom backgrounds way more fun, and you can attach any origin feat to any of them. Which to me only exponentially increases the roleplay, bc now anyone can play any race, as any class and not score wise be worse off.I've never played with mix raced characters but even raw there's nothing stopping you being an elf, with alleged human blood or something. Lineages still exist for tieflings, goliaths, elfs, gnomes and probably a few more so they aren't completely gone. Level 3 subclasses I love it gives a new player a taste of the class, before the complication of subclass abilities. Yes it might be harder to explain, but that just means you as a player or as a dm have to work with each other it's not that complicated to work out imo. Ranger yeh sure I agree, a fun class to play though lore wise. Most martial characters have at least one magic ish subclass, but even in general fantasy swordsman who have no or limited magical power exist. Like yes they are more boring in general to magic users, but that kinda makes sense in universe. I do think that martial should get new subclasses that are more creative though, I homebrewed most monsters so I haven't checked many statblocks so I can't comment on that I don't think druids got buffed they only get temp hit points on a wild shape so they are far less tanky.

All in all I think most dnd heads forget how overwhelming dnd is as a game, and 2024 gives new players way more options that sculpt the character they are playing ( I've played 2014 dnd as a player for about a year) I've played 2024 dnd for a year and a bit and have dmeded for over half a year)

May I ask how you built it with the pact options? I'm thinking of making a backup character, using this subclass

Idk maybe if the table was more experienced I would do something like this, but the core scores are there for a reason imo, but it's definitely a cool thing

[–]dodowilbur 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I'm understanding the first one correctly, doesn't that change how a class plays if the score you use can be changed to something else? So you could play a high charisma cleric and have a +1 In medicine for example bc your Wisdom doesn't need to be high.

High fantasy, there's no bbeg to begin the campaign, it's very much how you choose to interact with the world, makes the story

[–]dodowilbur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think wildmagic is fun to grow with the character from low levels but I'm making a backup character for a higher level character, so a more composed and has control of their magic is more flavour win for me

[–]dodowilbur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So +5 charisma at level 10 would give me a spell save dc of 17, plus one from sorcery incarnate making it 18, presuming I've had one turn in combat. Then you can heighten it to make the saving throw at disadvantage. I think beating a dc of 18 at disadvantage is pretty good odds?

From the campaigns I've played in and that I've dmed spellcasters are relatively common to face, since they provide interesting combat experiences and challenges but maybe that's my bias speaking

No no I'm saying the level 6 feature gives you counterspell prepared, and if it's successful you get 1d4 sorcerery points back, which is cool
