I'm sure much discussion that I haven't yet read has happened, but what about this idea: Drop Con and make HP based on the lower of Str or Dex: If you aren't physically balanced, your overall health suffers.

I mean, from the perspective of everyday language I agree with you, but 5e defines those words not just for creature size but also object size.

For actual weapon sizes, it should probably go from diminutive to large. Huge and gargantuan would mean that your weapons are 15-20 ft long, which is ridiculous and would be impossible to wield.

I like these ideas. Here are mine inspired by yours. First, the weapons table become ideas for role-playing purposes. Things change thusly: Weapon damage die = hit die. Addresses aforementioned caster w/ rapier > barbarian with dagger funniness. Two-weapon or two-handed fighting = advantage...

This looks like a lot of fun. It also looks like it could easily be a race with subraces rather than a subclass.

But would this make characters too powerful? What about this: When you gain the Ability Score Improvement feature, you instead gain a Feat. In addition, you may decrease of one your ability scores by 1, to a number no less than 8, and increase another by 1, to a number no greater than 20.

Thank you for this information! To add to it, True Polymorph is one case where you can cast spells:The creature is limited in the actions it can perform by the nature of its new form, and it can’t speak, cast spells, or take any other action that requires hands or speech unless its new form is...

It sounds like people are united against allowing Archmage magic, calling it a class feature, even though the Archmage has no class. So, no new spells for the Change Shape dragon. No, because the only aspects that carry over through True Polymorph are personality and alignment. The Archmage...

I had the same thought. Rather than a +1 AC, what about something like: Forest Camouflage. You have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks when in forests.

I like what you've got going on here! One issue with this one is Fey Ancestry. Gnomes already have advantage on Wisdom, Intelligence, and Charisma saving throws against magic, so advantage against charm is redundant: they already have it. What about giving them something like the Eladrin Misty...

Thank you for your feedback! I made a few changes: Halo of Spores Starting at 2nd level, you can launch toxic spores at other creatures. When a creature within 10 feet of you tries to harm you or one of your allies, you may use your reaction to deal 1d6 poison damage to that creature. This...

I really like the new Unearthed Arcana: Three Subclasses, but I think they need a few changes. Here is my take on the Inventor. What do you think? I really like playing the Lore Master, and I don't think it is overpowered, but I recognize that some people think otherwise. The Inventor is very...

I really like the new Unearthed Arcana: Three Subclasses, but I think they need a few changes. Here is my take on the Brute. What do you think? I changed Brutish Durability to limit it to proficient saving throws, but to give proficiency with death saves and another saving throw of the player's...

I really like the new Unearthed Arcana: Three Subclasses, but I think they need a few changes. Here is my take on Circle of Spores. What do you think? I changed Circle Spells, clarified the Halo of Spores reaction to make it protective, added plant Wild Shape, expanded Fungal Infestation to not...
