'cause you know, when I think of something imbalanced in D&D, the first thing I think of is skill proficiencies/bonuses. And the Bard gets the same Expertise feature in addition to Bardic Inspiration, so how is the Bard not a problem for them and the playtesters?

This one time I was playing a fighter and I rolled a high number on the dice. And then I rolled again, it wasn't as high, but it was still high enough, and I rolled more dice.

Then, this other time? I didn't roll very high.

Ryuujin: Sep 26, 2007; Dragon God

Okay so was working on my recruit, and because someone was thinking of playing a champion fighter with my changes I fleshed them out, though haven't figured out what to expand the 18th level feature with.

Ryuujin posted:

Okay there was some questions about the Fighter houserules so I will go in more detail. Also I am allowing the Spellless Ranger variant and Favored Soul Sorcerer Origin if you want to try them out.

----

Fighters
Okay first and foremost all Fighters gain a Feat at 1st level, and any other level where they gain a Fighting Style through the fighter class. No they don't get more feats by multiclassing Paladin or Ranger.

The Feat they get should reflect the Fighting Style, or possibly their Background or future Archetype.

Second all Fighters gain another Feat at 3rd level when they select an Archetype.

The Feat they get should reflect the Archetype, or possibly their Background or Fighting Style.

Third a new Archetype and Fighting Style are open to Fighters. The Leader Archetype, and the Leader Fighting Style, the Fighting Style does little if you aren't a Leader Archetype though.

Fourth I am making major changes to the Champion Archetype. It keeps pretty much all of its features, but they are expanded.

Some suggestions for the various Archetypes and Fighting Styles:

Champion: Athlete, Charger, Grappler, Tavern Brawler
Battle Master: Actor, Inspiring Leader, Skilled, Lucky
Eldritch Knight: Mage Slayer, Magic Initiate, Spell Sniper, War Caster
Leader: Alert, Dungeon Delver, Healer, Inspiring Leader, Keen Mind

Archery: Crossbow Expert, Sharpshooter
Defense/Protection: Shield Master, Sentinel
Two-Weapon Fighting: Dual Wielder
Great Weapon Fighting: Great Weapon Master, Polearm Master, Savage Attacker
[Any]: Defensive Duelist, Tough

Improved Champion Fighter
3rd Level Improved Critical+mproved Damage
Keep the Expanded Crit Range at 3rd and 15th level. But add an increase to damage, like the Gladiator's Brute feature. At 3rd, and again at 15th level, the Improved Champion gets an extra weapon's worth of damage on each Melee attack. A 1d8 weapon does 2d8 at 3rd level and 3d8 at 15h, while a 2d6 weapon does 4d6 at 3rd and 6d6 at 15th.

This makes them the best at melee damage, kind of, and synergises with their own expanded crit feature that otherwise was fairly anemic.

7th Remarkable Athlete+Remarkable Strength
Keep Remarkable Athlete as is except for the part of using half proficiency on non proficient Str checks. This is because Remarkable Strength grants you Proficiency and Expertise in all Strength Checks, including Athletics where you can pick a new skill if you already had proficiency in Athletics, also grants Expertise in Str saves, and in Str attacks. Something that no Expertise feature currently grants.

This is an expansion of the Gladiator clearly having Expertise in Athletics, and a Fighter being worse at Athletics than a Bard or Rogue. It also helps with being accurate and hard to stop with Str saves.

10th Additional Fighting Style+Improved Fighting Styles
Okay keep the second Fighting Style, and with the other changes to Fighter means yet another themed Feat. Improved Fighting Style grants something a little extra to each of your Fighting Styles.

[*]Two-Weapon Fighting: If you are wielding a weapon in each hand, you can make 2 attacks with the offhand weapon as a Bonus Action
[*]Great Weapon Fighting: Brutal 3, reroll all weapon dice that show up as a 1,2 or 3 until they show a 4 or higher when wielding a two-handed or versatile weapon two-handed. A Critical Hit with such a weapon in two hands stuns until the ends of your next turn.
[*]Protection: Gain a Shield Bash attack when wielding a shield. Shield deals 1d4 bludgeoning damage as base, before other Champion features adjust it, and hitting with the Shield Bash forces a Str save DC 8+your Str Mod+Proficiency (do not double proficiency here.) Failure on the Save knocks the target prone. You can make a Shield Bash as a Bonus Action, and/or you can use it in place of any of your normal melee attacks with the Attack Action. A Critical Hit with the Shield Bash causes the Dazed condition, until the end of your next turn.
[*]Archery: Your Improved Crit Range is doubled with Ranged Weapon Attacks. Critical hits with Ranged Weapon Attacks now inflict Restrained condition, until they use an Action to remove the arrow, or succeed on a Str save DC 8+your Str Mod+Proficiency (do not double proficiency here.) Reminder that neither Improved Damage nor Remarkable Strength are used with Crossbow or Bow attacks.
[*]Dueling: Dueling Bonus damage is now increased to +2+Proficiency. Can now make an extra attack with a Bonus Action. Critical Hits under the same conditions that the Dueling Bonus damage is granted now inflict a Bleed. Each round until they succeed on a Con save DC 8+your Str Mod+Proficiency (do not double proficiency here), or receive a Medicine check beating that same DC, they bleed for an amount of damage equal to your Dueling Bonus Damage.
[*]Defense: When wielding a Melee weapon, or shield, can use your Reaction to add your Proficiency to AC against one attack against you made by a creature that you can see. You are immune to critical hits. When a creature would crit against you it is instead a normal hit, and no extra features that trigger off a critical hit are triggered.
[*]Leader: If you somehow gain the Leader Fighting Style, which is less useful without the Leader Archetype, all numerical bonuses are doubled.

AlphaDog? posted:
When you choose this archetype at third level, gain a number of grunts equal to your proficiency bonus. This number increases with your Proficiency bonus. See "Grunts", below.
Replace your Fighting Style with "Leader" (see below)
Gain the use of Formations, detailed below. You can use one Formation per turn.
Some of your Formations require the target to make a saving throw. The DC is 8 + prof bonus + Str or Dex mod, your choice
At 3rd, 7th, and 15th level, you (your grunts) gain proficiency in an extra skill
At 7th level, you can do some stuff involving using your grunts as scouts, see battlemaster 7th level ability.
At 15th level, when you roll initiative and have no unexhausted grunts remaining, one of your grunts becomes unexhausted.

Grunts

After you use a formation (ie, once the effect ends), one Grunt is Exhausted and can no longer be used.
Exhausted Grunts can be refreshed, one per short rest, all per long rest
Your attacks can originate from yourself or from any of your Grunts. If you have multiple attacks, each one can originate from a different grunt, the same grunt, or yourself.
Each non-exhausted Grunt can make an OA using your to-hit and damage rolls.
Attacks on Grunts count as attacks on you. Damage to grunts counts as damage to you.
Grunts have your movement rate, saves, AC, etc.

Fighting Style: Leader

At the start of each combat, decide whether your and your grunts gain
1: +1 to attack with ranged weapons
2: +1 bonus to AC
3: +2 bonus to melee damage rolls.

Formations:

You must have at least one non-exhausted Grunt in order to use a Formation. You may use one Formation per turn e: round.

Hold The Line:
Until the start of your next turn, enemies have disadvantage on all melee attacks against you and all allies adjacent to yourself or a grunt. You and your grrunts have Advantage on saving throws to avoid being tripped, grappled, knocked prone, or moved.

Outflank:
Until the start of your next turn, you and your allies and grunts gain advantage on melee attacks against opponents who have at least two of your grunts/allies adjacent to them.

Seize Them:
Every size Medium or smaller enemy adjacent to a grunt is restrained. Every size L creature adjacent to at least two grunts is restrained. This lasts until you use another formation or until all restrained monsters are no longer restrained, then exhausts a grunt. STR save as an action for monsters to break the restraint.

Push Them Back:
Every size Medium or smaller enemy adjacent to at least one grunt and every size Large enemy adjacent to at least 2 of you or your grunts is pushed back 10' if they fail a STR save. You and your grunts can follow them without provoking OA.

Massed Charge:
AS an attack action, you and your grunts move up to your movement rate, and then make a melee attack with advantage.

Evasive Maneuvering:
Any enemy attacking you or your Grunts gets disadvantage on their attack roll, as long as you and your grunts have moved on your previous turn. You gain Disadvantage on all melee (but not ranged) attacks. Lasts until another formation is used, then exhausts a grunt.

Defensive Maneuvering:
Until the start of your next turn, enemies have disadvantage on all attacks against you and your grunts. You and your grunts are not subject to enemy OA, but cannot attack.

Offensive Maneuvering:
Until the start of your next turn, enemies have advantage on all attacks against you and your grunts. You and your grunts are not subject to OA, and gain advantage on all attacks.

I haven't seen a fighter abillity like the old weapon specialization. Did I miss it in the feats, or do the fighting styles fill that need? What about house-ruling that the fighter adds his proficiency bonus to initiative, and maybe AC and damage rolls as well?

To be fair, that was Monte Cook and not Mike Mearls. Mearls is still the kind of guy who likes Zak S and makes really dumb joke characters and responds to people talking about how the D&D design team has no women on it by talking about all the women who aren't on the design team that he works with, but he didn't do that.

Proficiency to AC would actually help game balance, not throw it off even more. Consider that monster BAB goes up by level/CR, but a character stops getting more AC by level 3-5 unless the table knows that they have to be put on the 3.5-esque item treadmill again.

Yeah, but you're not supposed to be fighting equal numbers of at-level monsters all the time (or at least that's what I'm gathering from how the new math works). The whole "bounded accuracy" thing and all means that WotC should have at least accounted for the player AC failing to scale.

A Fighter/Barbarian with ~28 AC thanks to stacking DEX/CON bonuses, shield bonus, and the proficiency bonus might be really loving hard for current monsters to hit. I'd have to dig up the numbers to be sure though. :effort:

# ? Apr 7, 2015 05:56

gradenko_2000: Oct 5, 2010; HELL SERPENT; Lipstick Apathy

A Fighter starts with AC 16 Chain Mail. Heavy armor means DEX doesn't matter.

Monsters from CR 1/8 to CR 2 have an attack bonus of +3. Against AC 16, that's a 40% chance to hit the Fighter.

Now, 5e doesn't have a "wealth by level" system like 3.5/4e, but a CR 3 monster goes then has an attack bonus of +4, so the Fighter should have upgraded to Splint Mail AC 17 by then to maintain a 40% chance to be hit.

A CR 4 monster then has an attack bonus of +5, so the Fighter should have upgraded to Plate Mail AC 18.

After that though, there aren't any more baseline increases to AC, so the Fighter will be hit more and more often to as much as 65% by the last tier of the game. The Fighter is effectively missing 6 AC, and I don't think it's any coincidence that Proficiency Bonus tops out at +6 as well.

Now, it is possible to get that +6 AC from a shield, from Fighting Style, or that it's not going to be necessary with good/clever tactics, but IMO it's rear end-backwards that a character would need to take the defensive option from their mutually exclusive choices just to keep pace. Strapping on a shield should make me get hit less than 40% of the time that everyone else is experiencing, not that I should strap on a shield just to maintain the level of toughness I already had previously.

The cues that 5e takes from 3.5 also supports the idea of giving players an inherent bonus to AC, as in the Defense Bonus variant rule from Unearthed Arcana.

Yeah, they've got bundles for classes ($50) and monsters ($50). The group still either has to all have a basic license ($39) or subscription ($4/month) or the DM an Ultimate license ($150) or subscription ($10/month) to even use any of it though.

If I'm reading that correctly, you can use the free license and build/play as normal so long as you're connected to a GM who ponied up for the Ultimate license. Buying the modules allows you to build your characters while offline, and play with a GM who didn't go full hog. There are also rules included for playing 3.5e/OGL, 4e, Pathfinder, Numenera, and some generic stuff that you're supposed to use if you want to make your own system.

This is correct. If the host/GM has an Ultimate License then everyone else can just be running the free/demo version, connect to the GM and play with all features enabled that the host/GM owns.

The program has free rulesets for 3.5e, 4e, 5e, Fate Core, Numenera and Pathfinder. Other rulesets have to be purchased or created by third parties (such as I have a free Labyrinth Lord ruleset)

What you're getting from that store link are "upgrades" such that the rules text can be referenced right from inside the program, or the Lost Mines of Phandelver thing where all of the plot points and encounters are already plugged in and the maps are ready to be shared.

So you could play a Wizard and cast your spells with just the free rulesets included with the license, you'd just have to fork out cash if you wanted to show that rear end in a top hat Jarrod that yes, the rules say I can do that so stop being a dick?

The product page doesn't do a good job of explaining that, but that setup seems less unreasonable. Likely everyone will have a copy of the rules anyway.
