I hosted my very first session as a dm last Thursday and thanks to all of your videos I learned a lot about world building and role play. It played out fantastically and we played for over 6 hours. Any tips on how I can make session two just as fun?
If you had fun, stick to the same formula, while trying to infuse some new things occasionally that will surprise players. Also, ask players what they enjoy most about the game. Glad it went well! 😊
WASD20 thanks for the advice. I’ll be sticking to your channel for a while it helps a lot
Same. His explanations are on point. One of my favorite places to learn
This channel is amazing, and one of the reasons I'm back into D&D after being away from it for a few years. I would also recommend one other channel, "Dungeon Craft", for general DM advice and world building tips. For me, these are the only two channels that are worth the time to subscribe to.
I'm currently producing a homebrew campaign for my two best friends. It'll be my first time DM'ing for our group and WASD20 has been a frequent channel I visit!!
I bought DnD last Saturday and played it with my children two times already. I got the ice spire set. I love it! I'm watching your videos to learn how to play more accurately!
These videos are a great help. The guidebooks are either poorly written or organized and you explained it concisely and clearly.
Just wanted to thank you! Last winter I learned how to play d&d by watching your videos and now I've been DMing weekly for over a year and have even taken up painting minis.
Nice!
That feel when you had to wait for 2 years to learn all the rules from this series
why does he wait so long wtf?
He also has a family to take care of.
Still no 4th video almost two years later. I guess in a few decades we'll know all the rules.
@@silk701 I guess during the other 66 videos he made in between Rules 2 and 3 that he didn't have a family then.
@@ThisisCitrus and the many MANY other folks who do RUclips videos on the regular.....none of them have families apparently? :)
I am new to being a DM and trying to introduce a brand new set of first time players. I struggled with reading all instructions in the guide books as I am a very visual and oral learner, these videos have been brilliant for me!
Same here. I found some of the guide books to be poorly written or organized. These videos help out A LOT!!!
More of these!!! Rules School Videos are what convinced me to subscribe.
thanks for posting these . this is a good series.
Thanks. I appreciate it.
@@WASD20 Dear Nate, I recently subscribed to your channel. It's crazy how awesome your content and your videos are. Do you plan to create more of D&D Rules School? Is there a 4th part or you decided to leave that series? Regards, aspiring DM :)
I’ve been playing for a while, but I love watching these from you.
I am an old-school 2nd edition player, now coming back to it after 25 years and learning 5th edition. Your videos have been HUGE in helping me learn this new system and get back into it. I'm getting my DM chops back and it is sweet! Thank you.
I had my first try at D&D with The Starter set with some friends just yesterday. We had a blast!
I can't thank you enough for all the help I got from your videos, they were (and are) really helpfull in making me understand the game and how to coordinate things as the DM.
Love the clarity of this! Great work.
I used to play as a player 17 years ago, and now my partner is (finally) showing interest and I’m Dming for him for the first time. As an ADHDer, reading the books can be very challenging and so these videos are SOOOOO HELPFULLL!!!!! Thank you! 🥰
I feel your pain! I just try to make the videos I myself would’ve found helpful.
The guidebooks are a nightmare for anyone with ADHD like myself.
Getting ready for Baldur's Gate III. I never had the friends to introduce me to DnD so I stick to these computer games and absolutely love it. Just wanted to thanks for the info. Subscribed and waiting for more content.
This is a wonderful primer! Thanks for putting in the time and effort!
I'd love more of these rules school videos. They are very helpful for my players.
Another episode coming? I'm brand new to D&D and LOVE this series! You're actually well-spoken vs most other D&D RUclipsrs I've seen that kind of ramble and don't seem to be going from a script at all.
These videos are so helpful, thank you! I hope you do more in this series.
The best series I've seen so far. Thanks so much for posting.
Great series thank you. Haven't played in over 30yrs and this has been a great refresher and introduction to 5e
This is an amazing walkthrough. Ty so much for all your time and effort❤
You are a legend, I’ve been looking for a guide like yours and it’s perfect, after 40 hours of looking through the rule books and videos I’ve finally got the rules and gameplay down to a T thanks to you, thank you!
I never played D&D before but I will soon. These videos are really helping me understand the point of the game and other stuff. Thanks a lot! :D
Both of my daughter's and I have just started playing, your videos have been a major help in wrapping our heads around some of rules. Thanks and keep it up.
Finally a video that tells me the literal steps of combat and not just vague instructions.
Thanks man!
Hey, keep up the great work. I'm binging on your Rule School and you are doing a great job that is helping the community.
Thank you so much! My players and I are all new and we got so confused about damage. Kept thinking rolling a 20 on the do-you-hit-goblin roll that had something to do with how much damage. Hit roll and damage are two diff rolls. GOT IT!
Glad it helped, happy gaming!
Literally taking notes and gonna study this. Gold.
the audio level in these three videos changes wildly
I’m watching this and using your insights in my re-creation of an old game called Castle of the Winds. Thanks for the great information.
Thank You for these videos! They helped me start DM'ing games with my teen kids! You rock!
Nice! Happy gaming!
Thank you so much for these "lessons", please, don't stop!
I'm a new D&D player and these videos are really great. Thanks a lot for making these!!
Dang first time! And its back again finally! I need these!
Thanks for this, I'm trying to learn to lay with my kids and I'm really in over my head. I appreciate you taking the time to teach me
Thanks for the great content! This series was great 👍
Love your vids, pls keep up the DnD school videos, im just now starting with these kinds of games, and your videos are really helping!!!
Thanks for the walk through and explanation of combat. Nice to have it simply explained. My first game as a PC I was lost as the DM did not really explain anything. As a former teacher I will have to balance my teaching instinct against letting player s simply experience and play. Thanks again for another great video.
John aka the Angry Dwarf
I watched so many videos on combat, this is by far the best one!!
Great video! I just received my player’s handbook a few days ago and wanted to delve more into the rules of combat. Let’s hope the next episode won’t come in a year ^^
Very well done. This type of video is very helpful.
The 10k view to 600 likes ratio is just wack yall. Give this man a thumbs up.
Not much better today. 30k views and 1600 likes. ratio is dropping off.
More please I'm learning so much.
Thank you
This is the best explanation video on RUclips. Thanks
Keep the amazin work up! You're great to watch
Awesome videos! I'm trying to learn as much as possible before I start running a game with my son. We created his character with the help of your other video.
That explains so much
I had no idea what the attack bonus was
This was the best one yet. The player's handbook stuff is easy enough, but it's the mechanical rules that I need to remember. Don't want to mess it up too much when DMing.
Super good tutorial! Really usefull for the session I'm hosting soon!
Very useful videos! No need to wait months for more rules school. More soon please.
I just started playing and after watching this I realized how easy combat was but this helped a lot I have to dm next week so this will help with combat
I really like this series!! Can you please continue with this serie!! Keep it up
Great vid, Nate! MOAR!
MOOOOAAAAAR
these are so dope. thanks dude!!! super helpful
Thank you so much needed this vid
Well done!
Thanks
very nice :D thanks for clearing up some rules
Thanks my wife and I just picked up essentials kit im planning to Dm and create a Sidekick character to take with her mainly just to create a character your videos cleared up alot of things for me hopefully tomorrow we will start on our characters
"SURPRISE!" lmao thanks for the laugh
OMGS!! I now know how to smash a goblins head as a player and help my players as a DM. thank you!! I have been trying to learn how to do combat as a player and DM for soooooooo long god bless u man.
Please do the NEXT VIDEO. You make this stuff so much clearer than the rule book.
I'm so glad King Radovid took up DnD instead of witch hunting. As usual, DnD solves all problems
I love you videos my guy please continue making them very informative, helpful and thank you for going into depth again best helpful videos
Over a year later and still waiting for Rules School video 4! :-D Your videos are great, so keep them going!
when is the next video??? im learning a lot as a new dm from your videos and your videos have been the easiest to understand
Thank you. Your the first person to ever tell what dc means.
This videos were great and useful.
first vids i've seen that make the game make sense.
Your awesome Nate. If I’ve got a question, you’ve got a video. Thanks so much🙏
Thanks!
Very helpful thank you!
Keep up the great content!!!
Just what I was looking for.
*cries in a year later* I was learning so much from these! QwQ
in all seriousness though, love these videos. Hope to see more of them in 2021 ^^
If you have the Starter Set and Essentials Kit for D&D 5e, then replace the pre-gen party with all Wood Elves. Each has a short sword and a bow (+5 TH and +3 damage) with the Criminal Background for Stealth and Deception. All have Criminal Contact, Stealthy, Fey, Darkvision and Trance, Initiative +3 and Speed 35 with dark clothes and hood.
Rogue: STR 8(-1) DEX 16(+3) CON 12(+1) INT 10(0) WIS 16(+3) CHA 13(+1) AC 14 Leather Armor, Thieves Cant with Expertise in Stealth & Sleight of Hand (+7)
Both Fighters: STR 13(+1) DEX 16(+3) CON 12(+1) INT 10(0) WIS 16(+3) CHA 8(-1) AC 17 Leather Armor & Shield, 2nd Wind, Defense +1
Cleric: STR 8(-1) DEX 16(+3) CON 12(+1) INT 10(0) WIS 16(+3) CHA 13(+1) AC 16 Leather Armor & Shield, Spell attack +5 and spell saving throw DC 13.
Wizard: STR 10(0) DEX 16(+3) CON 12(+1) INT 13(+1) WIS 16(+3) CHA 8(-1) AC 13 Spell attack +3 and spell saving throw DC 11.
The fighters become Eldritch Knights and the Rogue an Arcane Trickster for even more magic. The Cleric can Help the Wizard search ahead. They have a Passive Wisdom of 15, with Advantage from Help for a value 20, plus the cantrip Guidance to add 1-4 if one is rolled. That's +10+1d4, so your party is basically never surprised. The Wizard can also send a Mage Hand ahead with a Robe so that it looks like a decoy to harmlessly trigger any enemy ambush. Always have one character Help another with an ability roll. This gives you advantage, so you roll twice and take the best roll. Thus, if the Cleric Helps by distracting the mark, then the Rogue gets to roll twice at +7 to Pick his Pocket. All Wood Elves can hide and each is Proficient in Stealth (+5 or +7), so you should get Surprise Attack a lot. Have the Fighters move up to contact and Dodge while the others attack. Good Luck!
I’m hosting my first session in a few weeks and I finally understand all of it now because of all these videos thank you so much
Great! Thanks for the comment and good luck with the game! :)
13 MINUETS?!?!
IF I HAD KNOWN MEEING A DM WAS THIS BIG A COMITMENT I WOULDN'T HAVE TRIED
Just found these videos, your explanations are amazing and very clear... it's only been 18 months... can't wait for part 4 in 2025 just before 6th edition comes out. ;-)
Haha! Exactly!
Thanks Nate !!!
Literally played my first ever dnd game today as well. I think it went pretty well all things considered other than someone dying on their 4th ever turn and me getting a nat 20 as my first ever roll 😂
I have been asked to run two different after school D&D clubs at two different middle schools in West Michigan. I'll be using these videos to help on board the students. Thank you sir. I notice that you list "Supported Locally by Grand Con" in the video description. Do you live in West Michigan?
I do! And that’s great about the D&D clubs. I’d love to chat sometime. My email is in the video description.
Been a year waiting on that next video lol
I love watching your vids bro
I recently ran my first session as a DM playing 3.5e but decided I wanted to try and move to 5e for future sessions and your videos are super helpful. Are there going to be more Rule School videos in future?
Great video. Looking forward to the next. Magic would be ideal.
Been waiting for this to drop. I'm a new dm and I post these videos to my group on whatsapp. Bit lazy of me, but they are so accessible for beginners! Thank you for your work.
I hope u make the next vid soon bcs im about to dm for the first time and these vids have been really helping me
I’ve never played dnd before but my friends and I have been wanting to get into it. I decided to dm our first game without any prior experience (mainly because I didn’t trust them lol). I’ve read the rules and understood everything well except combat. This guide has made everything click and I’m thankful that our first encounters will actually go smoothly
Nice. Happy gaming to you! Thanks for the comment. :D
I'm just starting to learn about D&D and already am eager to be a DM
its been a little bit, but hopefully you get to put the 4th episode out sometime soon! One of my best friends has their first DM campaign coming up and they offered me to chance to play. I'm a complete newbie, only having listened to a couple podcasts before. Your knowledge and ability to present it in an effective and easy to understand manner has already helped me greatly. It'll take some time before my campaign starts but I sincerely thank you for this series--even if it takes a bit to come out.

There you go!
I'd like an advanced piece to this topic explaining dash and the other less talked about actions. New dnd player hoping to actually play a first game sometime soon.
Do more of this!
Yayyyyy it’s back! Moreeeee!
Omg thank god for you!
We do max all dice rolled once and then roll regularly so it doesn't feel so bad rolling all 1s. Or something like cut off finders or hand or foot, something lol. But your videos are great.
Rules school part 4 let's go!!!
New DM here, thanks so much for a detailed vid
Cool info
my house rule when in comes to crits uses the B.A.D.A.S.S method by Bill Allen, i find it gives crit hits, a much needed increase, so as not be a wasted crit on 2 damage.
Lets go w/ Part 4! I'm ready. Pleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaassssssssseeeeee
Episode 4 better be AMAZING after years of waiting...
Haha. Or just may never happen?
@@WASD20 and now my learning has been stopped, at least I made a plan to make a map for my self, and I’ll ask the party which direction they want to go and only let them see the map when they purchase one in-game, this is so when they go somewhere there will always be planned story and not on the go stuff, the only time where you have to do it on the go is if they go to another realm or other planes of existence, etc but you can make maps for those too just in case!
