If it's from wotc I don't want it. It'll be trash

Thanks, as always, for the generous review! I've been really conflicted regarding the idea of epic level play. My initial inclination was like yours -- that its niche and possibly masochistic. However, on the other side, Epic Characters is in the top 0.5% of all DMsguild products in terms of sales, and has sold well over 5,000 copies. So there definitely appears to be some curiosity out there, if not outright interest. Hopefully we'll be able to see something that uses this material, on the DM side, before the end of the year to test this theory :)

Great video as always! What would you do to fix the ecology of Lost Cavern of Tsoj-Canth? I'm going to adapt it into my Vecna Eve of Ruin campaign, which is the continuation of our Wild Beyond the Witchlight Campaign, so there's a lot of story connections in terms of a certain famous wizard/witch/Archfey (not to spoil too much).

Eric : i guess they could shoot from 500ft away, with disadvantage? *- mac laughing in 600ft of sharpshooter - *

I dm in person, with stat blocks printed, so super easy to tally next to spells. In saying that, I've probaly only had 1 spell caste last long enough for that to matter. 😅

Sounds cool and well put-together, but I'm not touching 5e content above 15th level with a ten foot pole lol. I'm too old to keep track of all that mess.

Pretty cool. I was thinking the same thing you mentioned at the end about giving a tier 1 boon to a lower lvl character as a reward from a powerful being.

It’s like WOTC saw what Goodman Games was doing and wanted in on the action.

Going to resurrect this a little. Came here to watch some story I'd forgotten as we picked up the game recently. The dude talking over the story parts was thus very annoying. Thanks for making this series though!

I’m so glad this book is getting some attention! If I never see another video about the upcoming PHB it will be to soon. I love the new Barrier Peaks and now I’m excited about When a Star a Falls.

Very excited to run Expedition.. Looks like a big improvement on the original though I think I will eliminate all the combat encounters from the random tables since there will be lots of that anyways and it runs the risk of being a slog

Thanks for doing this review. I loved your energy about it! I've read the Barrier Peaks chapter and loved it. I own the original module but I really like this new one. Also thanks as I've been looking for more videos on it and am realizing that the Vecna adventure and the core rules really have sucked the energy from this publication. I would totally watch play throughs of these adventures. I'm really looking forward to running some of them.

From my understanding this advice is from DM perspective, right? What advice do you have from player perspectives?

Be careful using the vampire bite attack against anyone paralysed, as it would be an auto crit! Big health reduction needing a long rest and higher chance would straight up die if it drops them to 0.

Fun idea, since being loosey goosey with the wands. What if, he could choose to de'attune to a wand in order to use a legendary resistance? Make the players feel good, even though the voss saved.

" Welcome to my Bike-weakly stream, where i ride & perspire right here. If you are sailors, goth whelps, salsa mac or tortillas... this bike stream is not for you"

This is the point I am up to now with my party. I found a scale model of the forge level of Sunblight and printed it out. It's so big it doesn't fit on the dinner table so we had to set it up on the living room floor. Xardorok has turned invisible and retreated to the throne room, (my players don't know that yet), and the dragon took off up the shaft. It was a brilliant session with everyone getting to do some cool shit. I am really looking forward to running the next session for them. I think I will throw the Umber hulk at them as they are kicking ass.

Friday 13th was just a day to be extra careful for superstitions before the movie came out

yea i dont like it either, its too big, too spread out, the current sheet is perfect, everything is right there on 2 tabs main and spell. while i love the detail and the the thoughtfullness of it, i probably will not use it in my games.

Where did you find the battlemap for the pit of all flesh? it looks great and I'm interested in it for my game

Roll20 actually paid for this to be shown off? This should still be in Alpha, not a public Beta. No Point buy. Poor UX / layout requiring so much scrolling and clicking to get handle previously basic tasks. Combat, Feats, Inventory all now in same place means even more clicking (though at least spells are on front page.) I just feel this was poorly designed and needs a big overhaul.

Looks good, especially in Dark Mode. I think I'm fine with using the check boxes for features/abilities. I like the built in Rage button that adds the damage automatically. Hopefully something similar is in there for Rogues' Sneak Attack.

Visually, i love having your characters portrait on the main sheet. Overall, it looks like it might be a little more scrolling/tabbing than the current setup.

While the new sheet looks nice, it takes up a lot of real estate due to the spacing and font sizes. Lots of scrolling required and for many of my players with smaller screens I can see it being an issue already. Tested it on my smaller laptop and it really takes up the VTT to a meaningful portion of the sheet at once.

Automatic advantage/disadvantage is interesting, though, there's so many niche ways of gaining it ( weapon mastery procs, attacking prone within 5ft, ranged within 5 ft, prone but not within 5ft.) Hahah, i imagine we'll still default to always roll, take the left.

I was gonna move the quest from dougans hole and have it currently being done in by a plague and any nearby towns are aware of it warning anyone trying to go there and anyone coming from that direction is not allowed in. Aldo since it's first in the dragon's path and basically confirmed destroyed town so also the PCs won't feel so bad about it being completely destroyed.

Great content, very helpful for me DMing Icewind Dale! Cat meowing in the background is pretty hilarious! More cat content (a la the toad hunting the moth video) please!

Hilarious video! I heard the cat meowing in the background of your Icewind Dale DM guides and had to confirm the cuteness! Great stuff! Toad hunting the moth was cool, too.

This looks amazing. I need it now.

I used his first 2 monster books back when I used to play 5E. They have really cool themes, interesting mechanics, and amazing artwork! Even though I don't play 5E anymore, I think I will support the Kickstarter. As a GM, it never hurts to have new monsters at your disposal ;)

neat

There will be less and less Free DM/GMs as the population grows older, polder people have less time to run games especially long campaign games for years. Free DMs are becoming mainly the age ranges of up to college years or retired which becomes older and older. As a musician, marketer/graphic designer, DMing is still a new entertainment media, like Music, people will generally agree the Entertainment Service of running Custom Gameworlds should be a value exchange as a standard. It will be like where you can go see a Band play for free at a friend's party, but otherwise you pay a cover at a show at a Club r Concert. So Paid DMing will only increase to fill that 80 million plus (and additional BGIII converting players) player/DM pool.

I'm greatfull for things like this, cuz I ordered the game and now I can see a bit about it before playing

Can you give me a link to that Shipwreck map you used. I would really appreciate it Thanks

Thanks for this. Was looking high and low for enchanted bullet ideas for gunslingers and these are great.

vampirey sawaghags, copy that. 👍

Ha!... Yes, Millie would have run in already (at 45:00 mark). Mobile, so she'd dash to ignore the difficult terrain. Then double dash with a ki point so 180' movement.

Thumbs up indeed. Great stuff, so enthusiastically presented, I'm sold!! And yes the creme de la creme at the end looks simply fantastic.

I think it would actually be pretty fun to play as a group with only "main characters". Imagine the chaos 😄

37:30 Shows you don't know Eberron very well. Its a huge world woth loads of complicated stuff and this is just a generic sci-fi thing.

Thanks for the great review and putting the spotlight on this book which would have probably otherwise escaped my attention

Wand of Magic Missiles doesn't need attunement. :D Also the gimmicky Xanathars' wands that are just for flavour, like smiles/conductin/pyrotechniucs.

Vampires' don't have lair actions? They suck... 🤭🧛
