Don't tell me not to spam guidance.

#anna reads dnd source books to fall asleep #sounds like there's lots of fun stuff. but one of these choices is clearly superior. #guidance is for ABILITY CHECKS it's fine if people use it out of combat who cares #i haven't read it. are they switching it to Only a reaction or that you can also use it as a reaction do not understand

got the ua now. i gotta say the school restriction on bard spells makes sense, but it’s just v funny that the class who’s about ~the song of creation~ doesn’t have access to conjuration spells

#anna reads dnd source books to fall asleep #it's about unseen servant mostly. i haven't looked at other stuff yet

hold up, so wild shape having a Standard Statblock means that when a druid becomes a horse

at 5th level that horse gains a climb speed

#anna reads dnd source books to fall asleep #one d&d #dnd

[dragoncharming]

why would you take the form hp away from wild shape

#anna reads dnd source books to fall asleep #they took the lvl cap off smite but limited its use? what #stuff like divine sense lasting longer is good. but this 'regain 1 (one) on a short rest' thing is ANNOYING #taking concentration off the smite spells opens stuff up i Guess #standardizing forms/steeds/familiars in tce style blocks is fine. people can stop picking animals based on optimization and focus on flavor #but they took even pretending to have medium armor from druids and the wild shape hp? we're going to die #dnd: sorry about the ogl mess. have some 5.5. me: this is a mess.

[dragoncharming]

do i really have to make a dnd bey account to read the 5.5 stuff??

finding a remorhaz when you search under the bestiary for something with the performance skill is truly life telling you to make a montage of awkward auditions at the beginning of a dance movie about underdogs

(it’s a reduced threat remorhaz that comes up since part of the “reduced threat” means getting a -2 to all skills which tipped the search function)

i truly believe in this team. the remorhaz learned modern tap and teams up with our behir member for a long noodley partner sequence. our wyvern member specializes in flashy salsa moves, twirls her wings around on the end of the otyugh’s tentacles. and our stone construct, you’d think they’d do the robot? no, ballerina.

#anna reads dnd source books to fall asleep #dang i need to run this immediately. too bad everyone's too busy for gosh dang dnd #wait no i was in the middle of something. but the other teams: fey #who are toooo pretty. some devil went down to georgia fiends. the spooky scary skeleton team

love when a new dnd book drops. love to look at the pictures and not read any of the words

#anna reads dnd source books to fall asleep #i am going to change a few things bc there are cuter versions now #update: they named the clown.... thaco

so if you use p much any of these conjure spells at 8th level, ur lil dude will have 4 attacks per round? that’d be fun just to try once

#anna reads dnd source books to fall asleep #I AM GOing to be Annoying about tasha's today!

truly do not understand why some 20th level abilities are like

You are immune to all damage. You crit on a 15+. You gain a fly speed of a million.

or

You can have 4 ki points, as a treat.
