Q: Tiny swarms and weapons with multiple damage types

Jack TimmonsI've just run an encounter for my players with several Carrionstorms. While doing so, one of my players with a weapon that did both Bludgeoning and Piercing damage (Akashic Mysteries' Hand Cannons veil, but a claw natural attack should have the same issue). Since a Carrionstorm is a Tiny Swarm, i...

Q: Sort "favorite" chat rooms by strict recent activity rather than by type of room

CatijaRight now I find that I often can't find, even when I've added them to my favorites. According to this answer by balpha from 2014, this sorting is intentional because there are two "types" of rooms - normal rooms and "special" rooms: Most room sort orders put "special" rooms to the end of the...

Q: When firing a weapon with the artificer infusion "Returning Weapon" via catapult, does it come back to your hand after the spell's conclusion?

Kaleb AlsobrookI'm playing a level 2 Artificer for a campaign me and some friends are playing. I was curious that if I used the "Returning weapon" infusion on a hand-axe and shot it out via the catapult spell (since a hand-axe weighs around 2 pounds according to the PHB) would the weapon return to my character'...

@ObliviousSage can a single thing really constitute a swarm?
Is a single fish a shoals? A single sheep a flock?
The sorites paradox (; sometimes known as the paradox of the heap) is a paradox that arises from vague predicates. A typical formulation involves a heap of sand, from which grains are individually removed. Under the assumption that removing a single grain does not turn a heap into a non-heap, the paradox is to consider what happens when the process is repeated enough times: is a single remaining grain still a heap? If not, when did it change from a heap to a non-heap? == The original formulation and variations == === Paradox of the heap === The word sorites (Greek: σωρείτης) derives fro...

@AncientSwordRage Even zero can.
You just . . . need to create Swarm<thing>, even without filling it.
 
@vicky_molokh-unsilenceMonica I'll just define isSwarm to equal isEmpty 🙃

Q: How to calculate Adjusted XP for heterogenous monster groups?

BrondahlTo recap my understanding... The point of Adjusted XP is provide a metric with which to judge the difficulty of a combat, to give your party well-balanced encounters and well-balanced adventuring days overall. The encounters for the day "should" sum to the Daily XP Threshold; Notably, multiple s...
