If I didn’t only get 1 vote i probably would’ve wanted to look up the definitions for the nuance between some of those options

yeah, it's like, oh? so you think indiana jones was boring? gone with the wind? hercule poirot? you're saying those stories are dull because they don't include elves, tieflings, goliaths.

it might be interesting to see a fullcaster artificer where like, they have no spell list, but all their infusions have associated spells and they can expend slots to cast them, but they could also do that with the things like wands they find, using their own slots to cast the spells through the...

'bring the menagerie' is perhaps a step too far for my liking, but i would agree with all of the PHB options being cemented into the various settings, for all of them to have established roots throughout, if i wanna play a dragonborn, a halfling, or a goliath, i don't want the nearest settlement...

although, if you did make a 'made for 5e' setting, they wouldn't need to keep being that.

i'm not just talking about the hobbits who are intentionally, specifically out of place (but not totally entirely foreign) to greater middle earth, i'm talking about the whole fellowship, men, dwarves and elves included, and so what if the only other dwarf place turns out to be a goblin infested...

i do think maybe more weapons should be feasible to use as casting focii, maybe the wizard can use rogue's knives to cast as 'ritual daggers', maybe halberds, pikes, lances and tridents work as well as quarterstaves for an eldritch knight.

and that is significant about them in the context of middle earth, they are not well known, they are not doers of great deeds, they are humble folk not known or cared about by the likes of sauron, but that is different from them being an unknown sailing onto the continent five minutes before the...

i wonder if they should've made casting focii like, a weapon category(or categorized like weapons are), rather than objects, just to make it clearer how they interact with the rules, something like: Focii NameHands RequiredClasses Proficient wand1sorcerer, warlock, wizard, artificer...

i probably should've replied to this as part of my last post no, it didn't impede your ability to play an elf, but do you not think that it's a shame or a loss, even a little bit, that your elf never got a chance to show an emotion tied to who they are and how they relate distinct to the place...

we want to be able to choose to tangibly be from the place we're adventuring in, to have pre-established ties, dynamics and histories with various factions, organizations and people that will influence our character's choices as they adventure, not everybody wants to be some waif, stray or...

That doesn't justify doing it for new species either or make it better that gnomes and halflings have no deep connections to the setting.

if you mean like the long term influence from your luck on something like your rolled stats i'm going to have to disagree with you on that one, everyone should have the right to at least start out on a level playing field before the dice get a chance to screw them over.

because why make something nice for the martials when you can instead give it to the fullcasters? 🙃

personally, far end max of 40 for the really difficult stuff, make expertise and reliable talent more common especially within the martials, d20(20)+ ability mod(5)+ proficiency(6)+ expertise(6)= 37, then you can fill in that last gap with other magic bonuses and stuff like guidance.
