Blanket_Thunder Posted April 9 Clone Share Posted April 9 (edited) Hi! What's your ruling on rituals & books, as far as purchasing more scrolls/rituals for a book? Im looking at an archaeologist-style character (bard class) who's into esoteric lore, not necessarily making deals with eldritch beings. Scratch all of that; I'm not doing ritual caster. I routinely forget about the number of feats vs. ABIs in 5e lol Edited April 9 by Blanket_Thunder (see edit history) Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get 1 free feat, unless you choose a background that includes a feat, then you take that feat instead. (not counting variant humans).

Blanket_Thunder Posted April 10 Clone Share Posted April 10 The build I was thinking was too feat-starved and would have used them all anyway lol After I built it, I realized I hated it Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blanket_Thunder Posted April 18 Clone Share Posted April 18 (edited) @codexgigas I've been wish-washing back and forth between like 3 concepts and I'm getting closer to narrowing down, I just have one more question for you: For druids: What is your ruling on having a mundane (or like +1) suit of scalemail that is just some large animal skin? I believe dragon scale is too high rating for use, and I just want to make sure that's feasible.

I believe dragon scale is too high rating for use, and I just want to make sure that's feasible. I would allow that. Technically, druids don't have a prohibition on metal armor in 5E, since most of the special materials were removed from the rules. We can always say that armor is made of scale or ironwood. However, dragonscale armor is actually fairly plentiful at the moment, since the Dragonarmies make heavy use of it. A character could easily have taken a set of dragonscale armor from a killed soldier. It would be limited to one of the chromatic dragon types.

I’ve settled on: an elf/human Druid whose grove was recently destroyed by a red dragon in recent years. Thinking circle of stars Druid who’s been studying the stars for years for signs of the Gods’ return. He really wants that red dragon dead. any places you recommend for this area to be?

Southern Ergoth is a good place for an elf druid. It also happens to be where the party currently is.
