it may be a few minor features at level 1, but you're still making them pick a massive part of the trajectory of their character in that single decision that they already have a ton of decisions to come to terms with is not a good excuse to heap another big one on them. it has zero impact on...

Okay, to clarify, i don’t think the concept behind multiclassing is bad and should be removed, being able to combine class archetypes and features, BUT i think the current incarnation of multiclassing is pretty terrible, classes have to be designed in consideration of the combinatorial potential...

i don't really care about getting my subclass features at 1st and understand and agree with the points made for delaying them to third but i do agree we should remove multiclassing and solve that separate issue ;)

If i was getting a noncaster ranger I’d like them to come with an extensive list of both active and passive tricks and perks ranging(heh) both mundane and supernatural that i can individually pick and choose to customise them like warlock invocations, and I’d especially like the option to have...

this promises to be an interesting topic.

i think i might be the polar opposite here, if i find a thing i like it's usually cool to me independently regardless of the lore, and if i find something i like i'm more that willing to repurpose it and put it into another place or setting. one of my biggest frustrations with warforged i've...

if anyone has a wild magic caster i'm placing my character as far as feasibly possible away from their character.

simulation to me is...trying to give everything enough of it's own set of rules to minimize the amount of times where you need to ask 'well how should this resolve?', it is trying to model the world and the things in it, those things don't need to be realistic outcomes by our standards but they...

it 'works' but there's certainly a group who is not happy about how it is working.

mostly something closer to the latter than the former, a PC 'bloodied' mechanic in a similar vein of exhaustion inflicting distinct penalties, i don't think death saves ought to be removed wholesale but perhaps something that disinclines people from wanting to be taking them in the first place...

No, NPCs aren’t PCs, by their definition they can’t be, but i see no logical reason why that means they wouldn’t have the same traits that every single PC member of their species does, I don’t see PCs as some special ‘species plus’ variant of their people, the party elf might be stronger...

Sorry, something about how this is phrased is just short-circuiting my brain’s ability to parse the proper meaning from it, could you rephrase more plainly please?

i know there's the death spiral argument but do you think DnD ought to try implement anything that curbs the 'the only hit point that matters is the last one' mentality where you run at 100% effectiveness right up until you're making death saves.

are hit points meat? luck? stamina? it doesn't really matter, hit points are ENOUGH to simulate what they're trying to simulate.

besides simplifying the overhead of running the game, i honestly question why you'd want NPCs to not have the same list of traits that their PC counterparts have?
