The point is that lowering saves and making it 3 rounds makes the problem a lot worse. Control spells only need to work for 1 or 2 rounds to destroy an encounter at the current save levels.

They aren't the best, but I wouldn't call them awful. The main problem, though, is that I have someone who outright refuses to understand what is being said to him. If he and his group want to play a game where they ignore where something is said 5 times to point at one time where it's said...

Nevermind

It's not worth my time anymore to deal with your internet antics.

Honestly, I have no idea. I never liked the Marshall, but I know others do. That's why I've said over and over that I'd love to see it made for 5e. I THINK it's thematically different enough to warrant it's own class/subclass, but I'm not sure.

Why? You didn't quote me saying it. You quoted me saying, "it does not strike the heart or even the body if they have enough hit points." which means over 50% hit points and, "The only time you get struck for huge gory wounds like a stab in the heart is when you drop to 0." which means dropped...

I'm going to call shenanigans. Every race has morning breath. That's not Dragonborn specific. ;)

How is that any different than having to reference the PHB for spells that monsters with spellcasting have? Or reference the PHB so the monsters can engage in combat? Or to know how to run resistances? The MMs have never been completely self-contained with regard to the information necessary...

Stop deliberately misstating my words. I never claimed that only the 0 hit point strike does actual damage. Not once. Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Give this man a kewpie doll! Which is why what I said covered stingers. :rolleyes: Without that "typically" poisonous(and other exceptions)...

Or they aren't warlike conquerors. If you assume that the elves aren't going to go on the offensive and take over the world, dragonborn are few in number, etc., it still works out fine for them to have the same racial traits as the PCs. 5.5e changed elves so that they can learn new cantrips on...

Ignore it all you like, it's what the rules say. It's called context. It helps if you can recognize it. "you typically show no signs of injury. When you drop below half your hit point maximum , you show signs of wear" Context is your friend. You can play internet lawyer with your "Aha! I...

First off, I said that I said it twice and wouldn't say it a third time. Second, in the first quote I mentioned stingers and shouldn't have had to mention it again. Just quoting the actual quote says EXACTLY what he asked for. A reason why stingers worked. If he can't be bothered to try and...

Twice I've quoted where it says very clearly that typically you show no signs before 50%. That's there so that stingers and such will still inflict poison, which I stated straight out the first time I quoted it.

I'm not linking it a third time. If you can't see it the first two times, I'm not wasting my time on a third.

Yes. What about them? Just like I said, people liked them and others disliked them. I'm really not sure why they haven't been put into 5e or 5.5e yet.
