They have 3 actions?

solemn light
#

In 5e normally you have: 1 Action, 1 Bonus Action, 1 reaction.
Thieves in 5e TTRPG can do a lot more with their Bonus Action than most characters can do (such as dash, dodge, disengage, pick a lock), but they still only have 1 bonus action.

In general you can remake a BG3 character, such as 'Half-Orc paladin, oath of ancients' but some abilities will be different. Best to check what the TTRPG abilities actually say.

Thank you. I’m glad to hear that there is prep time. I had read that usually you just communicate with the DM prior to check and see if ur character isn’t disrupting anything that the DM has planned

I only got as far as making a character on a sheet irl. Id love to start somehow.

#

Time to try and find a game then!
You can look for ones online or in person.
In person you can try gathering a bunch of friends together for a oneshot (a very quick, one and done game so they don't get spooked by comitting long term and get to see if they like the game) and one of you DMs (there are some premade adventures to help guide this).
Or you can look for local established groups in local game stores, or on facebook or meetup.com.

Find a game can help you post and look here for online games. Read the instructions carefully in Find-a-game. There's also other LFG like r/lfg on reddit, or some Virtual Table Tops have their own LFG (like Roll20 has it's own LFG you can filter to look for games on Roll20)

Forgot how to make a character. I dont mind playing a premade character

#

Looking at the website ig ill be a premade bard

#

These are things you'll need to check with your DM.

For now, before finding a game, best just get an idea of what D&D is and how it works. Have a look over the official races and classes, see which ones you like, make a practice PC, so on.

But really it comes down to finding a game. Your DM might want you to make a PC with them and the group, or might accept a premade PC that follows the basic rules and so on.

I haven't played but what I'd do is have a bunch of character concepts (Most likely randomly thought of them and just wrote it down) and then discuss with the DM the campaign details for the rest of the stuff, so the second half is just session 0 like Elgate said

@mint narwhal If you have inspiration, you can expend it when you make an attack roll, saving throw, or ability check. Spending your inspiration gives you advantage on that roll. Additionally, if you have inspiration, you can reward another player for good roleplaying, clever thinking, or simply doing something exciting in the game

Depending on the dungeon master is it possible for artifice or to make new equipment for different classes?

You can apply your artificer infusions to another person’s equipment.

#

But beyond that, that’s something you’d need to discuss with your DM.

There are downtime rules for crafting items, but your DM may or may not use those rules.

And whether a DM allows you to invent brand new things will vary.

(Not sure which of those you mean by “new” equipment.)

# pliant jewel Thanks guys I appreciate it

The key is to start in bite-size pieces. I'd suggest playing your first game with one of the Starter kits adventures. They give you pre-generated characters, dice, an adventure that is designed to help you learn the game as you play, and the size of the adventure is scoped to a new DM. If you don't want the physical starter kit, you can get it on DND beyond for a reasonable price. The other resources for new players on here are also good, but the value of a starter set is that it is desgined for new DMs and players. And, you don't need to make an big investment in all the books until after you've played and get hooked -- I mean until after you've played.. 🙂

# quiet yew And how are we actually going to play the game since I'm in istanbul turkey

Do you have a local group of friends who want to play? You can still use digital tools to help you play in person. Or you can just play the game with pen and paper. With the cost of shipping these days, you may want to consider using digital rules / character creation / adventures through DnD Beyond if it is available to you. The other new DM help referenced on this page is also helpful. The key is to learn the game in bite-sized pieces when you are new.

Welcome to the most fun you can probably have around a table! What you do next depends on whether you have a group to play with in person, if you want to play online, or if you want to try out the game in a gaming store. Ofter, game stores have areas to play and welcome new players wanting to learn. (Your experience may vary based on who's playing, but I used to run a lot of games for new players at our local friendly gaming store. In all cases, if you are going to run the game (which is a lot of fun, by the way), you need to start small. I don't recommend trying to read all three of the core books and try to learn that way (used to be the only way, but times have improved for new DMs and players). Look at the resources on this page and the pinned posts (the thumb tack icon at the top of the page). I recommend starting with a published adventure with pre-generated characters for your first game. The DnD Starter sets are good for this, but there are other options suggested in the resources on this page.

Ah. Got it. Then online play may be the best way to start, and there are a variety of places to find games to join. You may want to start in the # Find-a-game area of this discord.

There isn't a TL;DR in D&D sadly. You really need to try and read them.

#

You don't need to read all of them, and it's fine to ask questions. But you need to put some effort in.

cobalt frigate

D&D is a game of rules. You will have to read. Critical Role's "Handbooker Helper" video tutorial series on Youtube will help you learn but they won't replace reading the rules.

It's not recommended for a first time player. You can, but you'd need DM permission and they might be wary of allowing a homebrew from a new player who hasn't yet experienced the 'vanilla' game and how it's meant to work.

# somber flower I wanted to try to play DND, but I don't know much about it, what should I do to...

Welcome to a great hobby! I suggest checking out the info at the Pinned Messages, and then starting small. The best way is if you have a circle of friends who want to try DnD for an evening. I suggest getting the basic rules (free and shorter than the core books, which makes it a good rules intro), and then use a pre-made intro adventure with pre-generated characters. You can also play online with your friends through a virtual table top (VTT), or just go simple and play over Discord, Zoom, or other app of your choice with each character using dice to roll or an integrated dice roller in the app. Depends on how tech savvy you are, although it is apparently relatively easy to set up. Folks on here can help with specific questions you might have.

solemn light
#

The most 'By the rule' option for that is using Tasha's Custom Origin.
But for a practice character, I'd recommend focusing on PHB / Basic rule races for now.

Simic Hybrids are Ravinica setting only. You'd need DM permission to play outside of that.

d(number) = Dice with that number of sides

d20 is a 20 Sided Dice
d8 is a 8 Sided Dice

That's not the modifier. It's the ASI bonus.

merry rock
#

It’s not +2 to your con modifier
It’s +2 to your Con Score

#

Your score affects your modifier

lyric fjord
#

So let me patch this up
If there's a challenge that requires me to have 20 dex
I'll do a saving throw+my char modifier+there usual stats and if it's 20 and above I'll clear it but if not I fail?

cobalt frigate
#

A saving throw will require you to meet or beat a DC number.

smoky adder
#

What you’ve described there is a DC 20 charisma saving throw / ability check.

frigid helm
#

Before people jump, I think char is character not charisma

#

Too late

lyric fjord
smoky adder
#

Ah 😅

cobalt frigate
#

If it's a Dex saving throw of DC 15 for example, you roll a d20 and add your Dex modifier and your Profiency Bonus modifier (ONLY if your class is proficient in Dex saving throws).

If your character has a 16 Dex score, the modifier is +3.

merry rock
frigid helm
lyric fjord
cobalt frigate
#

Watch the Handbooker Helper videos then.

lyric fjord
#

So certain characters won't be able to get out of a situation if there not proficient in a certain saving throw?

smoky adder
#

Possibly, depending on the DC.

true shard
#

Potentially yes but the more likely possibility is that they are simply less likely too

smoky adder
#

In general, proficiency simply makes you more likely to succeed at the things you’re good at.

merry rock
# lyric fjord I did and became partially dyslexic I'll try to read more into it

For the ability score stuff

Your character will have ability scores which then consequently affect other things, including your modifier

You figure out your scores first by either rolling or using preset numbers (ask your DM which their doing and also ask them about what to do) then you’d add any extra things like your Race’s increases

Then for modifier it’s: (Score - 10) / 2 rounded down
So a Score of 12 would have a modifier of +1

tacit stone
#

Even failing a saving throw doesn't usually mean your character dies. It just means it takes the full effect of whatever you were saving against. Trapped ceiling collapses, take damage and 1/2 if you make your Dex save to avoid some of the damage. Fail your saving throw against a fireball spell, take full damage but 1/2 if you save.

lyric fjord
#

How many D20 are usually in a saving throw?

1

Unless you get advantage or disadvange

Really would advise looking over the basic rules and going through step by step as jumping about like this won't really help you.

lyric fjord
solemn light
#

Just going through the step by step character guide and learning how to look things up as they can come up can be a great boon.
Most people don't really memorise the rules, they just know where to look when they need to remind themselves.

All checks in Dnd typically use one d20 + ability modifier + proficiency bonus if you have it, and you compare it to the DC to see if you succeed. The penalty for failure depends on what you are checking for. Attacks, skill checks, and saving throws. It is the core mechanic of the system.

lyric fjord
#

What I'm seeing is alot of math
Which is bad

#

Cause I'm particularly bad at math

merry rock
smoky adder
#

It’s really never more than “add a number less than 10” or “divide by two”.

#

It’s pretty elementary stuff.

solemn light
#

In this case it's almost always just X + Y. Like you roll 18 on the dice, and you add +5 = 23 total.

merry rock
#

Numbers don’t really get big unless you’ve got like a really optimised high level build

solemn light
#

And while the +5 might be something you needed to work out earlier (3 Strength + 2 Prof) you write that down on your sheet, and it changes gradually so is easy to check. (Digital sheets even do this for you).

lyric fjord
tacit stone
#

There is math in the system, but the good news is that your overall modifier only needs to be calculated once per level, and then it is on your character sheet for easy reference. If I am proficient in using the Nature skill, my character sheet might have a +5 written next to it (the total of my proficiency bonus and my ability modifier). If I need to make a Nature skill check, I just look at my sheet, see I have a +5, roll a d20 and add 5. This result is compared to the DC set by the DM.

solemn light
merry rock
lyric fjord
#

Honestly idk what I'm even saying
Yeah Ima just go and read

tacit stone
#

As long as your roll equals or exceeds the DC, you succeed. Taking a read over of the base rules will probably help you put things in context.

lyric fjord
#

So say I took a damage of 2d8,and I have a HP of 6,how much damage will I take

cobalt frigate
#

The DM rolls the 2d8 and tells you what they rolled (which means anywhere from 2 to 16 points of damage).

tacit stone
#

As said above. If the first die is a 4 and the second a 1, you take 5 points of damage.

lyric fjord
#

Say I got a total of 7 damage and my character is dead?

dapper gulch
#

Nope. There’s rules for what happens when you hit 0 or below.

Might be best to just go through something step by step at this point and ask a question when you get stuck on something you've read.
At the moment it's like trying to be drip fed rules through googling questions while only have a barest idea on what questions to even ask.
There is a reason we recommend looking over the basic rules and just going step by step through the first chapters.

Step-by-Step characters and Basic Rules for Combat have most of the answers you seek.
Again, you do not need to memorise these before playing, and most will click into place as you play. But have a go at making a practice PC using only the basic rules (no homebrew, no simic hybrids or extra content), and have a glance over combat to get an idea of how it goes.

Again, just read the first four chapters on character creation Basic Rules. You seem to be going from one random thing to another.

#

Why are you asking about spell swords when you should just worry about learning about character creation or combat works.

#

You're just going to confuse yourself even more by asking stuff irreverent to learning about the fundamental rules of the game.

slow hawk
#

There is no “spell sword” class, its just a term people use. Stick to the basic rules and read through them, then come back with questions

You can write down questions as you go, some will be answered as you read, cross them off

Itll make more sense when you read about spellcasting

# cold tusk So, how do you play D&D?

Get some friends together with your beverages and snacks of choice, and then run an adventure together. One person is the DM, and the rest play characters going through the adventure. The resources in the pinned messages area are helpful to get the idea of how to play. After looking over the basic rules and maybe the video, come back with specific questions. It looks very complicated, but you don't need to have all the rules down to start. Learn to play together -- it will still be fun.

Sure! Give the free basic rules a read: https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/basic-rules
Then make a character or two for practice.
Then find a group to play with - read #find-a-game (carefully) and look for groups in #looking-for-players, #looking-for-community (other D&D servers), and #paid-looking-for-game (if you're willing to pay a DM to run a game/campaign). Or if you want to tell folks you're available to play, you can use the bot commands (again see #find-a-game and read the info carefully) to create a post in #750812887697588356.

@silent cedar , @snow hollow Welcome aboard. This is a great game. It has a little bit of a learning curve in the beginning, but you don't need to know all the rules or have all the books to start. The info in the pinned messages is helpful. The basics are that you gather a group of friends or make new ones in an online game, one person is the DM who sets up the adventure, and the rest play characters who go through the adventure. Take a look at the character creation rules in the basic rule set or the player's handbook if you have that . That should help you get the context of the game. The core is the d20 system -- roll a 20-sided die, add your ability modifier and proficiency bonus (if applicable), and compare it to the difficulty class you need to meet or exceed. It is the same for attacks, checks to succeed with a skill, or a saving throw to avoid something happening to your character.

Online is much easier these days than it used to be. There are a lot of tools that help these days. At its most basic level, you just need to play using Discord / Zoom or similar app, and then have people use a dice roller or just roll dice and tell you the results. The next level up in complexity is to use a virual tabletop, and those take a bit of getting used to hosting and using, especially as the DM who has to load maps, etc. If you are technology comfortable, they are pretty easy to use after a bit of trial.

As with all things DnD it’s important to talk to one another and understand. I have yet to have a group that didn’t welcome a new player. We live indoctrinating new players into the cult club

Being okay with new players is one thing, being okay with teaching a new player who hasn’t bothered to try and learn anything themself and requires constant handholding is another

dnd beyond has a shareable link of character sheets, you just need to set the character to public so others can view it.

based on his experience and how new our entire group is it’s probably free for all

#

Not to mention he just had throat surgery

For best results, I'd recommend having your DM decide on a setting and theme. Preferably by choosing an adventure book if they are new.
Then having you all build backstories around the setting and premise to increase compatibility.

His entire powers revolve around him being depressed. It’s kind of funny, but it’s interesting.

summer pollen
#

The abilities that I am giving him are driven by how he has recovered from his grief

#

You're a level 1 barbarian. You have no powers to speak of.

true musk

As a new player to D&D, I want to remind you that your character grows in power as they level up. You don't start off with more powers at level 1 just because of the backstory you write for him.

A lot of new players come in with high expectations and I'm trying to be realistic.

Storm heralds are typically elite champions who train alongside druids, rangers, and others sworn to protect nature. Other storm heralds hone their craft in lodges in regions wracked by storms, in the frozen reaches at the world’s end, or deep in the hottest deserts.

Hi yall Im new to DnD, I'm creating a sorcerer Harengon, what's the difference between a type of sorcerer and the sorcerer spells? Do I choose one or both spells in the categories. For example a sorcerer that does wild magic doing tides of chaos, and the separate category of spells like control flames. Im looking at the dnd wiki btw.

topaz garnet
#

I think dndwiki might not be such a good source

heady fulcrum
#

Do i need a class?

topaz garnet
#

Yes, it determines your hit dice (and as such, hit points), most proficiencies, and is generally most of your capability to interact with the world

heady fulcrum
#

ohhhh ok thank you

topaz garnet
#

(Remember that Class and Subclass are extremely important distinctions)

heady fulcrum
#

what are subclasses?

topaz garnet
#

For example, Sorcerer is a class. Its deal is that your magic is innate and tied to you, whether it was from birth or some magical mishap imbued it into you such as bathing in dragon blood or getting caught in a magical explosion.

the Draconic Bloodline and Wild Magic sorcerous origins are sorcerer subclasses. They each have a list of features that you would gain as you advance in level.

#

And remember you can't have more than 1 subclass per class

heady fulcrum
#

ohhhhh that makes sense

topaz garnet
#

One subclass reflects a draconic bloodline giving you magical power, manifesting as scaly skin for some better unarmored armor class (harder for attacks to hit you), more hit points per level (more hp is always nice), at first, and gaining more features later

#

The other reflects your magic being wild and chaotic, featuring a table of roughly 50ish random effects, and some DM dependent features.

heady fulcrum
#

oof sounds complicated

topaz garnet
#

Not as such, necessarily

heady fulcrum
fleet field
#

subclass and class are both completely independent of race

topaz garnet
#

There have only ever been three racially-locked subclasses
the Battlerager Barbarian (infamously bad)
the Arcane Archer Fighter (similar boat as the prior)
the Blade Singing Wizard (later re-released to not be race-locked)

heady fulcrum
#

ohhhhh ok

topaz garnet
#

and that's to my recollection, but I'm fairly sure I'm correct

#

Any race can be any class, and any race can have any subclass (outside of the two that are super old design now, didn't even find attention in later fixing, and are both infamous for not being very good anyway)

heady fulcrum
#

You know on the basic character sheet, there's three pages?

#

would I put that dragonic bloodline class on the third page? and the regular spells on the first?

#

because I had my Dm help me earlier, and they put all the regulars on the third

do they fill it in for you on DNDBeyond?

A cleric/planning to multiclass bard. Half-Elf, follower of Oghma with Knowledge Domain

Ooo, fun multiclass. Be careful though, you've got two different ability scores for spellcasting (charisma for bard, wisdom for cleric)

I have a little bit of experience with BG3, if that counts! This is my sheet so far. Still gotta go type out her story but she’s mostly put together stats wise! Some good rolls on dnd beyond

BG3 rules slightly different to dnd5e

Is this for a game or just making to practice ? DMs like to see stat rolls

Use standard array or point buy

Sooo how much hp is normal for a very beginner character?

sonic cargo
#

6-14

thick tapir
#

Ohh ok ok I have 7

ornate kiln
#

whats your class and Constitution Modifier?

slow hawk
#

The smallest hit die is a d6 (wizard)
Probably shouldnt walk around with less than 14 CON

So 7 means something is off

topaz garnet
thick tapir
#

Ok dunno If I'm right but my con is 9 with a "-1" modifier??? No idea how tbh. I used the dnd beyond character maker thing

slow hawk
#

how did u generate scores

#

It is strongly recommended NOT putting a 9 in CON

thick tapir
#

The standard numbers thing.

ornate kiln
slow hawk
#

Standard array, ok

thick tapir
#

Yeah that

slow hawk
#

Put a number above ten in CON

thick tapir
#

Also I'm now realizing how much of an impact Constitution has

slow hawk
#

Well yeah

ornate kiln
#

CON is the one stat no Character should dump

#

just because it affects your HP

thick tapir
#

Ok im gonna do some switching. Brb

slow hawk
#

I would not go lower than 14

solemn light
#

Unless you want the thrill of playing a glass canon. Risky though

ornate kiln
#

i think 12 is fine for ranged characters

solemn light
sonic cargo
#

Yeah it's the only stat I suggest newbies don't dump

#

I don't really like the "Don't do this" kinda advice but if your dm has any level of danger in their game then low hp could end your characters time at the table quickly

slow hawk
#

Its basic functionality

solemn light
thick tapir
#

Does strength affect spell damage?

solemn light
#

Strength does not. Your spell casting ability does

fresh fable
#

Type /looking in any channel

thick tapir
#

Ok im dumping strength then

solemn light
#

Which depends on your class, but can be wisdom, intelligence or charisma

pretty typical for many spellcasters to dump str

#

though clerics might want some

fresh fable
#

Play a dwarf don’t need strength for heavy armour then

ornate kiln
#

ehh but then you would be playing a dwarf

thick tapir
#

Ok switched things around and my hp went from 7 to 10

#

So now I need to know. How do you determine spell casting ability?

fresh fable
#

What class are you? It should say in the class guide

thick tapir
#

Cleric

ornate kiln
#

Wisdom

thick tapir
#

The spell casting system tbh really confuses me. I'm trying to understand tho

#

Oh ok cool that my highest Stat. But I'm pretty sure it's like every clerics highest Stat

ornate kiln
#

it should be

topaz garnet
topaz garnet
thick tapir
#

Mainly spell slots

prisma arch
#

Hey everyone. I am new here. Shana from India.

thick tapir
#

I think its like... you have access to any spell of that level as long as you're "around" that level? I think? But you can only cast so many spells until you're out of slots?

#

Also, hello shana!

#

I'm probably totally wrong tbh

solemn light
#

Your class table has your slots and what level you can cast. For full casters (like cleric) the level of spell they can cast is usually around half their level rounded up.

mighty sparrow
#

Welcome Shana!

topaz garnet
#

When you want to cast a spell, you expend a spell slot. The level of the slot has to be at least the level listed in the spell.

#

for example, if you want to cast a 2nd level spell, you have to expend a 2nd level spell slot. You can expend any level higher that you have, and it might get a benefit (like more damage), but it has to be at least 2nd level.

ornate kiln
#

think of spell slots like your "mana" from video games. but slots are neatly packaged amounts of mana, so you cant use the energy for something else.

topaz garnet
#

Also, for a Cleric, some will refer to a cleric as a "full caster" - it simply means they follow the usual formula, they go all the way to 9th level spells, the maximum.
They get new spell slot levels at... 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th, 13th, 15th, and 17th level.
So, half your Cleric level rounded up, is a good trick.

#

Also, remember cantrips can be spammed for no cost, they just upgrade (if at all) at character levels 5, 11, and 17 (they'll say so)

thick tapir
#

Ohhh ok ty ty

topaz garnet
#

It's just spells of 1st level or higher than need spell slots, which then need to be of at least that spell's level or higher

thick tapir
#

So I can just keep casting cantrips over and over?

frigid helm
#

Yes, they are "at will" you can cast them as often as you want.

It's just not very powerful. Reliable, free, but won't do as much damage as a lightning bolt.

I've gotten interested in Dnd through podcasts but I don't really know much about it, but I still want to start playing it. Does anyone have any tips how to start getting more into Dnd without being overwhelmed?

mighty sparrow
pine lily
#

that probably wouldn't work out my friends have terrible organisation

quiet yew
#

Any dnd players in istanbul

mighty sparrow
#

Then I'd probably recommend having a good session 0 and feeling comfortable with the people you're gonna play with. A game in your own language (if it isn't English) also helps with communicating things

pine lily
#

lol

mighty sparrow
#

Especially getting along with the DM helps. If they seem friendly and helpful enough, then that eases the tension a lot

pine lily
#

Honestly if I get to know ppl I'm playing with I'm mostly fine I think? I also prefer English to my native language so I thankfully dont have that limitation

mighty sparrow
#

Ah okay, that helps then! You could also try looking for people you can get along with first, and then just look for a DM to host for you. That way you don't have to play with people you know literally nothing about

pine lily
#

yeah that works

#

I think everyone would be more comfortable playing with a few aquaintances too lol

mighty sparrow
#

Do you know anyone you could ask to join? It doesn't have to be your best friend per se, just people you know you can get along with

#

And that'd be interested in playing DnD

pine lily
#

my partner likes dnd I might ask him

Always worth a shot!

I'm looking for a little advice on how to return to D&D because my 14yr old son suddenly asked about it and wants to learn to play.

#

I have some ancient actual -D&D- guides (Not AD&D)... and I realized that the handbook and rules I knew are readily available on the internet archive... So, I could just teach him from that.

#

I figure I'll force the kids to do an adventure... invest money if it turns out any of them like it, but maybe that's not the best approach.

#

I only just looked at the D&D Beyond site today... is there enough information that isn't behind a paywall to help me DM and help them learn to play? Would the character sheets created there be suitable for the original AD&D rules?

#

I checked a couple of nearby game stores and the only D&D campaigns they have right now are fairly hardcore players... They might be open to newbies, but my son is shy and wants to learn enough to not feel out of place from day 1.

#

I'd appreciate any advice folks have.

#

(Feel free to make a thread or DM or direct me to a better channel)

remote oriole
#

Funny im already helping somebody out why not another you dont mind if i teach you more? im not all knowing btw

hollow summit
#

I'll be glad to jump on a thread and read through... I'm just trying to figure out the best way to approach this now, then go talk to him/them

#

(I have 4 boys, 3 are old enough to learn the rulse and play)

#

I wouldn't mind picking up the latest ruleset and learning it with them... but it's an investment and I hesitate to throw that much money at something they might spend an hour figuring out isn't interesting to them

#

He also wanted to learn Battletech

remote oriole
#

Well D&d doesnt really need all the rules now does it

hollow summit
#

(I spent a little time talking about how I used to game... and he really liked some of those ideas)

remote oriole
#

not everyone can memorize everything no need to spend extra money just for a little not important rules

hollow summit
#

His goal is to learn the (player) rules well so he can join one of the campaigns that exists nearby... which expect you to know them

remote oriole
#

Hm

hollow summit
#

Ditto with Battletech... which I thought was a big investment in minatures... but they play a simplified version called Alpha Strike which comes with some minis and is mostly focused on combat (which sounds a lot less interesting to him)

stark drift
#

Greetings travelers. Could I know whetherrr I could play dnd with human like an actual campaign on a phonee?

hollow summit
#

It makes sense... he's 14... he doesn't want a watered down version... even if it's watedeep 🙂

#

(sorry, can't help it... dad jokes come with the territory)

#

I actually need to step AFK... @remote oriole Please DM me or suggest in here what a good approach might be... I may be busy for a short while.

remote oriole
#

I can be a DM for you but a good approach would just to play dnd like any other kind of game go with it

# umbral coral I meant it where you can play any time you want but ok thanks

D&D isn’t like a video game where sessions are constantly happening and you can just drop in. It takes prep and organization. You may be interested in westmarch style play (where multiple DMs and parties act in a living world but may not be consistent) or play-by-post (PBP) where playing is mostly asynchronous.

When lockpicking or pickpocketing do I add my dex bonus as well as my sleight of hand bonus to my roll?

cobalt frigate
#

Pickpocketing would use the Sleight of Hand skill check.
Lockpicking would use the Thieves' Tool skill check.
The DM would tell you which Ability to use but typically it would be Dexterity.
(Note: only those who are proficient with Thieves' Tools can use it to pick locks)

D&D is a game of rules. You can't avoid reading about the rules, even if you watch video tutorials like Critical Role's "Handbooker Helper."

the more you read up/watch and understand the rules/mechanics, the easier it will be to play.

# plucky terrace what's game style and preferred way to play ?

Preferred way to play is like "Play by post" or "I want to use roll20 and video". That kind of thing. Game style is what you're looking for in a game. If you only want games that are set in avernice, put it there. If you want your games to be lots and lots of combat, write it down. Does that clear it up at all?

echo kelp
#

I can see new folks not understanding all that - it's okay to say "Not sure - I'm new" in those spaces.

So play by post, you leave messages to each other. On a forum, for instance. Play is typically slow and detailed.

Voice chat, usually with a virtual tabletop or VTT such as Roll20, Owlbear Rodeo or Foundry is the usual way to play. A VTT lets all the players see the board and roll their dice even though they're remote.

Assuming you don't have a face to face game where everyone actually meets up.

It's not really DnD, technically, albeit one of us does go by DnD rules...

It's like any other social gathering. There needs to be an invite list, time to prepare, and scheduling.

It's not officially a DnD centered server so I assume it's a no then
