@BoabAlmighty @Dan_Dillon_1 @PickaxeLuke In my Homebrew, Balasar's Guide to Exploration, there is an alternate Identify rule. It uses a table of rarities and DCs. After the casting, the player must make a spellcasting ability check. On a failure, they cannot to it again for 24 hours
@JeremyECrawford@ChrisPerkinsDnD quick question - if a spellcaster is maintaining concentration on a spell, but drops the material component/focus, does the concentration end? IE battle master's disarming attack forcing the wizard to drop the tree branch for witch bolt?
@ChrisPerkinsDnD@ChrisPerkinsDnD I made Balasar's Guide to Exploration on DMsGuild. It's 130 pages, free, and has 10k downloads with an average 4.4 rating! I'm working on my next compendium right now actually
@KoboldPress Tools are your friend. I use Microsoft word for notes (bullet points), Excel for making calendars for exploration events/daily activities for the villain.
Also, games are 30% prep, 70% improv.
Third: try not to say no to all ideas. Try "yes, but" or "yes, and".
@UnboxTherapy maybe you can help the people. AiPower, the company that Kick-started the WearBuds has completed their campaign, and we've been charged. Their pledge emails to get our shipping info, however, have not sent out. It's been a week, no answers for anyone. Can you help?
@WebDMshow They'll be interacting with him once more, soon. They currently just got done with Xonthal's tower in Goldenfields, and are in the High Forest trying to get the green mask. They know that Manshoon is currently at the Arcane Brotherhood
@WebDMshow So that the red dragon leader of the Izzet League could come to Waterdeep. Manshoon loves Waterdeep, and the party is a thorn in his side. He knows that if he wants something done, he has to do it himself. Of course, the party only knows that he wanted the staff, that's it.
