D&D (2024) I just got a 2024 PHB From Gen Con. AMA!

I don't. When Treantmonk and d4 discussed that topic, they surprisingly strongly disagreed with each other, with d4 thinking Sorcerer has overtaken Wizard.

I meant that extremely tongue-in-cheek.

You misspelled "paladin".

You both misspelled "Twilight Cleric".

 

[Minigiant]

Weird that they would go to all that effort, instead of just removing the 3rd attack...

They want you to be a bladelock but be costly to make up for being a "full" caster.

WOTC doesn't want casters to replace martials.

You both misspelled "Twilight Cleric".

Having listened to D4s video of classes and subclasses, I think the Archfey Warlock is going to be the most powerful character in the new book.

Man, I really thought that they wouldn't miss that loophole, but it looks like they did. I'm gonna have to houserule it.

What, and make a penalty which actually harms casters? Not on your life.

 

[EzekielRaiden]

Yeah, about my reaction as well.

Hmm. I might have to do that too. No reason why effects coming from exhausted creatures shouldn't be easier to resist!

I believe any Warlock gets Charisma on attacks with pact of Blade (could be wrong). I would think this would make Hexblade obsolete, especially since you would not get Hex Warrior until level 3.

They can, at level 1.

Hexblades Curse, medium armor, and shields are still good options for a straight warlock.

Just dipping for Cha to hit has some alternatives.

You both misspelled "Twilight Cleric".

Maybe for tier 1, but by level 11 wizards are clearly out shining them (and probably even before).
