Yesterday, 08:35 PMIn terms of abilities to give non-casters at level 10+, I can't easily think of something I'd call "overpowered." Literally just give them stuff. Of...271 replies | 10321 view(s)

2024-04-25, 08:37 PMWe keep talking about sneak attack because its all that rogue gets damage-wise. If they can't apply sneak attack, they're doing weapon + dex. And a...271 replies | 10321 view(s)

2024-04-25, 02:28 PMSkrum replied to a thread Player Help Aquiring Sleight of Hand skill for my character in D&D 5e/NextAFAIK there is no RAW way to gain new skills. Like, there's probably mention of it somewhere in the DMG in an offhand "you can also reward your...18 replies | 918 view(s)

2024-04-25, 01:27 PMI see what you're saying but do we need a literal faceroll character? I like the idea of simpler and more complex character options, does barb have...271 replies | 10321 view(s)

2024-04-25, 10:28 AMThat feels about right to me TBH. Rogues do more damage than I probably give them credit for, but GWM barbs are hard to compete with when it comes to...271 replies | 10321 view(s)

2024-04-25, 09:11 AMBarb can't make use of elven accuracy (I assume that's what EA is); that requires dex or mental stat-attack rolls, and barb of course needs to use...271 replies | 10321 view(s)

2024-04-25, 08:09 AMYes, it was due to his damage resistance; actual damage taken was 92. But - he's a barb with 17 AC. Because his AC was only 17, he took A LOT of hits...271 replies | 10321 view(s)

2024-04-24, 11:40 PMUnder ideal conditions, rogues can do solid damage. Basically, if they're able to maintain distance and consistently hide or use steady aim, their...271 replies | 10321 view(s)

2024-04-24, 10:45 PMYeah I don't see how TWF makes all that much of a difference. I'm giving the rogue adv because of steady shot (and rather generously too, since they...271 replies | 10321 view(s)

2024-04-23, 11:42 PMI don't feel that rogues should have extra attack as a method to boost their damage per se - it's more about how they play. Shove prone, attack at...271 replies | 10321 view(s)
