I'm guilty to make the DM have a hard time. It's by the book that you want? Then, this character is "by the book", deal with it.īreaking the game was my revenge every time I've played with them. The DM was a modern edition guy he was asking for dice rolls for literally everything, he was a "by the book" Referee. I really hate 5e, but since my friends were modern edition guys, when I wanted to spend some time with them I had no choice. ![]() It was fun to think about it, I'm not sure if it's a know combo, but you can do that in 3rd or maybe at 5th level, I don't recall in which level I was, it was on 2017 or earlier. This adventure obviously didn't last long, my character was broken. I was CHA 18, casting Darkness, letting everybody virtually blind (including the rest of the party) where I was the only one attacking with advantage and seeing everything in darkness. It was a good fighter as well because of some pacts I've chose, hexblade or something like that, I don't recall the names of abilities but I received my CHA mod as bonus for Attack and Damage and my hits counted as Magical. And I could cast Darkness at early levels. I was a dark elf I think, and I had a Darkvision that included magical darkness, I don't remember if the Darkvision was from the elf or any warlock pact. There was that time when I've created this Warlock. I've broke 5e many times, and using Darkness was one of those. But that's a VERY oddly specific single exception to the rule. This enables them to see through magical darkness and thus get advantage on all attacks while others have disadvantage against them. The only time this matters is in the case of a warlock who has eyes of the fiend and the darkness spell. But I did, actually, ask the question and get it confirmed. ![]() Sadly, I lost the link to that particular conversation ages ago so I can't back that up. Oddly, they didn't seem to think it problematic. Also, I pointed this out to the Sage Advice people some time ago and they confirmed this reading is correct. The spell is, from a mechanical sense, pointless and negated.Ĭertainly this discounts a proper GM who looks past it and says, "no, that's stupid," but yeah, strictly BY THE BOOK it's a pretty gross oversight by the designers of the game from a mechanical standpoint. This advantage and disadvantage cancel each other out.Īll creatures within the space of a darkness spell battle as normal. ![]()
