Hey all, I'm DMing a session for my DND group, which includes Sage hence the title. I have the attached image as my idea for a battle map, which I'm designing as a two story apartment building (top - second floor, bottom - first floor). My idea with the combat is that it is going to be a really shoddily constructed building, so the walls and floors break away when they're messed with. I'm hoping that the fight will start on the second floor, and the party's opponent will be focused on forced movement so as the enemy hits with attacks and pushes the party around, they'll crash through into other rooms, or perhaps into the floor below. I'm trying to specifically think on the mechanics of this, ie should smashing through the walls deal extra damage? should it require a save? should it knock them prone? Looking for any feedback on this and any ideas you might have on implementation or other things to add to make it a fun encounter! Thanks in advance for any ideas!

Behold, the impossible multiclass made powerful and possible at level 6! *I spent all last week making this* Is it good, or horrible? @Sage Crane @Marko Pasha @Rowdy DaRogue

Hello guys. I am curious to hear what characters you are playing at the moment. I'll start with a short intro to the setting 🙂 I am currently playing in a campaign set in a homebrew world named Usalia. In this 2nd campaign, in this world, this time we are playing in the continent Emerise Empire - a desert land filled with uneasy alliances between great clans and a heavy dose of honor and traditions. And more importantly, a new resource called Unobtanium, which has groundbreaking properties for magical Tech. Something the people of Emerise is not interested in, since it would completely change their way of life. This combination is halting technical progression, wich have left opportunity for outside influences, whom promise power and wealth to the Emperor of Eremise. This is a recipe for nationwide conflict and a legitimate reason for other Clans to challenge the current Emperor for the seat of power. Aight, so. I'm playing a half elf Swashbuckler rouge/warlock. I was not ment to, since I really liked @Sage Crane swashbuckler battlemaster with double bladed scimitar. Alas, at some point in the story, we freed an old spirit from a tomb, and I used that opportunity to get a ginie patrion. Here is the build Rouge (Swashbuckler) 4 lvl. Warlock (ginie) 5 lvl. pact of the chain Invocations: Eldritch mind gift of the ever living ones ( we play with no auto full hp on long rest) Mask of many faces Feats: Lvl 4 rouge - elven accuracy In combat: Plays like a melee rouge. Going in with the spell shadow blade and booming blade and tries to land one good hit, with the help of elven accuracy/advantage from familiar or being on dim light or darkness. That's 4d8 + 2d6 + 8 (and we do like crits) And then move away to try and trigger 2d8 from booming. Out of combat. I'm high charisma with expertise skills to back it up. My little imp buddy is so great for scouting and infiltration. Basically all my spells from warlock goes into infiltration and espionage.
