Just wanna say I'm a long-time lover of the Helmsman class; originally Themistoclien but later Mechfighter (I always feel Essence-starved so it felt a better suite of replacements than all that burn), and have always found it full of flavor and easy to match to the party's optimization range...

I've been studying this evolutionist for a few days now, and would have to say where the class is lacking for A5E conversion is not combat capabilities. Like the Scientist class there's plenty of different options among their upgrades and ignition, several of which are already not dissimilar to...

Apologize for doubleposting, but probably best to keep them separate since Mechanic is several paragraphs as well. Mechanic Overview: A rare class to get Extra Attack Rank 2. Unfortunately as we were playing in a more generic fantasy A5E setting, the radiation parts were basically irrelevant...

This isn't great writing, but it's all the collected notes/issues we had over the campaign with the Mad Scientist and Mechanic. Mad Scientist Overview The basic framework was alright. A caster-ish class with up to level 7 not-spells, most of which are blasting anyhow so not much to worry about...

There is a measure of overlap, but not entirely. Deadeye lets your shots ignore the AC bonus from any cover (it does not exclude total), so within that, you won't need Ricochet much of the time, so it does feel like a bit of a loss. However: Things in total cover usually have broken LoS and...

Have a few first/character-creation impressions so far (mainly mad sci and feats), but where would you like feedback? In here, or inbox, or what?

As one of the testing hopefuls, Bollywood Exemplar sounds hilarious.

In terms of what makes sense and what it should do, I couldn't agree more. That said I'm a bit worried about the wording (if it wasn't for that one word, "magical"...) for that reason. If that little bit was removed, then all the spellcasting or teleporting invocations would be self-contained...

Isn't it rather the other way around? As I understand it, the statement is that whether it's from siphoning talents, tricks, or reality-defining essence, the result is your warlock learning to perform these 'magical feats'. I am indeed worried about losing Armor & Shield proficiency in an...

This was a strangely delayed doublepost.

Wouldn't Thirsting Blade explicitly shut down from being in an antimagic field? Unlike Secrets of Arcana, Invocations are expressly described as magical. The summoned blade may/probably avoids this since the pact boons aren't explicitly marked as magical. On that subject, Versatile Blast is an...
