Pardon the necro... Any Updates pertaining to the massive class updates in the UA? I havent tried them yet, but they seem to mainly be a buff. Spell Versatility to help the lack of Spells Known. Empowering Reserves seems to have some negative synergy with Tides of Chaos, 2Sp for advantage on...

I have some 'Wild' questions, here... First: Would it be worthwhile, with a DM who is a bit hesitant with Wild Magic Surges, to frame the matter as you are willing to concede expecting a Roll after every lvl1+ spell you cast in exchange for having the Player retain the option to choose to roll...

If i had to define: Classes, later Class+Race, Class+Race+Skills THACO/D20 Vancian magic that generally divides between Save or Die/Suck and Fist Full of Dice(cuz whats more fun that rolling lots o dice?) Alignments that shape the Cosmology.

You should, its fun. Would be considered 'rules lite' by today's standards and IMO, lends more to just dungeon crawl hack&slash.

Yeah. Demons and Devils should be obvious. Faust had to pay up. And why wouldne an evil Demon/Devil just leave a Warlock High and Dry jut for entertainment's sake? Fey can be very fickle, and even the Good aligned Patrons wouldn't be above making the Warlock quest or demand compensation over...

Man, people love to add more complexity to try to fix the Sorcerer. I guess im a minimalist... SP RECOVERY: LVL 2-5 = 2SP per short rest. LVL 6-15 = 3SP per short rest LVL 15+ = 4SP per short rest. Idea being less recovery than a Wizard but still able to Nova/burst cast at higher rate. SPELLS...

Yeah, the 'Class system' is pretty iconic for D&D.

By that logic, wouldnt Warlocks have access to all spells Arcane and Divine? What stops Orcus from having an army of endless lvl1 mooks who can cast Wish at will unlimited times per day? I like Warlocks, but i think one of the most neglected aspects of the class is the general disregard for...

So like OD&D? Fighter, Thief, Wizard, Elf, Dwarf, Halfling, Cleric are all the classes?

Thematically, they are VERY different. My take on Casters in 5e: Clerics - get their magic from a God/Godess. Magic is themed and structured by the God's archetype. Wizards study and learn how to manipulate Magic like a tool. Structured and rigid applications to get consistent outcomes...
