Side Initiative, which is also in earlier versions of D&D. DMG page 270. Slow Natural Healing which is on page 267 of the DMG. Lingering Injuries which is in the DMG on page 272. Massive Damage found on page 273 of the DMG. No Opportunity Attacks. They are listed in the PHB on page 190, and 195. O5R: Dungeons & Dragons 5E Optional & House Rules I recently made an 'O5R' video over on YouTube. Here are all of the things I want to try to include in some future campaign. Nov 29, 2014 Page number and name of optional or variant rule: If you have any I missed, please let me know and I'll add it. EDIT: Added 2 variants on p140 regarding potions and scrolls. 50 Feywild Magic. 52 Shadowfell Despair. 59 Psychic Dissonance. 59 Blessed Beneficence. I was really pleasantly surprised by the inclusion of Epic Boons, as well as about 98% of the DMG. Weird omission I think is the lack of description about the Positive and Negative Energy Planes, but from what I know about D&D, they are just planes of pure energy regardless, with older versions treating them more like the Feywild/Shadowfell.

What page are optional rules on in the dmg 5e 1

Large Player Characters

The races presented in the Player's Handbook are all Small or Medium sized, and the weapons and combat rules presented therein are designed around those sizes. Until official Large-sized player races come out, the following rules can be used to better represent them in combat.

Weapons

Large-sized creatures can use Large-sized weapons (DMG p. 278). This significantly increases damage output, and might be considered disruptively overpowered for a player character.When using Medium-sized weapons, use the following rules for weapon properties:

Large creatures can't wield Hidden and Undersized weapons.
Large creatures struggle with Light weapons, and have disadvantage on attack rolls with them.
One handed weapons without the 'versatile' trait are treated as light weapons for the purpose of qualifying for two weapon fighting.
Weapons with the 'versatile' trait deal the damage given in parenthesis even if wielded in only one hand.
Two-handed melee weapons can be wielded in one hand

Centaurs, Drider and other Hybrid Large Creatures

If your Large PC race has a regular Medium-sized humanoid upper torso, it might be worth explicitly stating that the race treats weapons as though it were a Medium creature.

Optional Rule: Oversized Weapons

Consider using the homebrew Oversized weapons variant rule.
Two-handed melee weapons can be wielded in one hand if it is not also Oversized.

Optional Rule: Unarmed Strikes

A Large creature's unarmed strike might deal 2 bludgeoning damage (instead of 1).

Carrying Capacity

As noted in the PHB p. 176, Large creatures have double the carrying capacity.

Consumables

Based on the food and water needs (DMG p. 111), Large creatures require four times as much food and water per day.

Cover

It should be harder for a Large creature to find cover (PHB p. 196). The DM will adjudicate this, but roughly speaking where a Medium creature would find total cover, a Large creature might only receive three-quarters cover; where a Medium creature finds three-quarters cover, a Large creature might only receive half cover; and where a Medium creature finds half cover, a Large creature might find none.
