I've been playing an Eladrin arcane trickster/bladesinger using the Eladrin race from the DMG. After eading that UA, loving lol if I'm gonna roll for more personalities. Also being a multiclassed spellcaster I already have all the cantrips I want anyway. Pretty lame

It's sort of sad how boring the Gith are there. I'm disappointed.

Man I hope we never get other Planescape species if that's how boring they are going to be. Why did they even go for "lich Queen" instead of the historical philosophical split after the rebellion against the Illithid empire? That poo poo was great and tied into the whole "kinda psychic-resistant" thing. Actually why the gently caress do they not have Resistance to psychic damage, now that that's a thing? Also Githyanki no longer build fortresses on the Astral remains of dead gods, 0/10. Edit: I checked the Monster manual and all the philosophical split stuff is still there, Githyanki and are even more xenophobic than ever to justify being evil I guess. The lich-queen thing I forgot about, my bad. Ambi fucked around with this message at 18:08 on Sep 12, 2017 |

If you're a Land Druid, and ain't nobody in your party want to ever stand next to an enemy like absolutely nobody can take a punch, what's the best .25 cr animal to be at level 3 since wolf can't ever, ever, ever get his bonus advantage to work? I've been using axe beak since it's more hit points and why not be a dumb ostrich if I'm afraid of dying?

Turning into animals is for recreation not combat.

Conspiratiorist posted:Then conjure animals. that's a higher level spell than a level 3 druid can swing. Okay different question. My guy saw a town on fire and all the spells he brought with him would just make more plant matter to fuel the fire. I was left druidcrafting puffs of wind and tiny meaningless clouds whose barely-a-rain-at-all evaporated before reaching the flames. What's a spell that can deal with a fire, wall of wind? that's it?

I'm actually a little confused what the demographic for Eladrin is given that High Elf already exists and Eladrin was just a fantasy word alternate name for High Elf in 4e

High elves are intellectual, aloof jerks while eladrin are mercurial, emotionally intense jerks. Maybe?

It's a burning town, not a burning match. Blowing on it will just make it burn hotter and spread faster.

Comedy option, turn into something big and roll and stomp around in it to smother it. Sure you'll take a bunch of damage, but that goes away when you turn back

Is a burning town a protected flame? Because then it only has a 50/50 chance of extinguishing it.

Conspiratiorist posted:Gust of Wind has "extinguishes flames" as an explicit effect. "Candles, torches, and similar unprotected flames." I don't think a burning town is similar to a candle or torch. Certainly not at my table! "Congratulations, you just roasted all of the orphans trapped inside the burning orphanage."

Gust of wind is also a blast of air so powerful it can blow a horse off his feet and throw it 15 feet down. We're far past "Blowing on a candle" Also, the spell explicitly says it blows small flames. Would be DM fiat if it can put out a burning house. "and it extinguishes candles, torches, and similar unprotected flames in the area. It causes protected flames, such as those of lanterns, to dance wildly and has a 50 percent chance to extinguish them. " Caphi posted:It was a type of Good Outsider in 3.x, I believe.

The town was on fire by a river of open sewage I"m wondering if shape water could have made a huge mess but put out the flames, eventually. Just moving 3 feet of piss six seconds at a time until the whole town was pissy and not on fire. Dare you enter my magical realm of piss?

gizmojumpjet posted:"Candles, torches, and similar unprotected flames." I don't think a burning town is similar to a candle or torch. If we're applying physics, then Create or Destroy Water, which has the effect of extinguishing flames in a 30 ft square, wouldn't do poo poo either since it's just an instant splash of water. Nothing you can do in this situation that wouldn't also destroy the town, aside from Wish.

Get a dwarf drunk and send it around pissing on every building. Roll a CON save or a DEX check, depending.

Krinkle posted:The town was on fire by a river of open sewage This situation gets better and better. Druidcraft explicitly puts out a 'small campfire'. That seems like a lot of fire. Just keep on casting it? Same with Control Flames from POTA, a cantrip that extinguishes a 5' cube of fire. That can at least let you run around rescuing people by clearing flames from their doorway or whatever.

To be exact on the Eladrin they were the Chaotic Good Outsiders for 2e and 3e. Opposite the Archons which were the lawful good ones. 4e changed their lore to make them even more elf like then they were, (The Types of Eladrin that existed in the older versions were renamed Noble Eladrin in 4e it appears.)ProfessorCirno posted:I've seen theories that, given the Gith and Eladrin, WotC is gonna start working on planar material, and Eladrin make for easy to make filler for the Feywilde, which is also not Arborea, but let's be frank, it 100% IS Arborea, but better, but also it's not, because in 5e BOTH of those somehow exist. There is a a somewhat significant difference between Arborea and The Feywild. Mainly that the fey have no real presence in Arborea. Other then that they are indeed similar both being naturey places with a chaotic bent. MonsterEnvy fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Sep 12, 2017 |

God I wish the foldout map that came with Curse of Strahd was a player map. Both sides are really, really cool maps, but one is a detailed map of the main castle with all the traps and whatnot labelled and the other is a world map with a bunch of spoilers in the legend. Whats a good way to block out the map legend in a way that wont slide off, but wont damage the paper?

Photocopy, black out whatever. (Though they'll figure out what the blacked out traps mean, so black out other stuff randomly!)

It's a huge map that I wanna use as my centerpiece on the table, I'd need to take it to a print shop that could print a paper of that size, but I might just do that if it winds up being the best option.

2bux is extremely reasonable. I've paid more for less, so to speak, when it comes to RPGs.
