I was assuming points buy where you allocate 15 in dex and mind stat sorry

Outdamages normal ranged build past lvl 5 because of the bonus damage from the cantrip and gives some customization of skills you wouldnt think about normally, but you're right

Don't worry there is a 200 reply thread arguing whether or not this is legal...

If you're using True Strike, a Light Crossbow (1d8) seem to be better than Hand Crossbows because you can't do the bonus action attack when using a cantrip. Off turn attack shenanigans don't worry about Loading either so it's fine. For level 1-4 characters, however, the maximum damage a ranged...

While not optimal at all, I find the idea of a party face swashbuckling type Rogue using True Strike with Charisma to be fun. The creativity the spell offers is nice

I agree, just generally if one is making a rogue build centered around True Strike they will prioritize the spellcasting modifier used, otherwise there is not much point in taking it. That said, I can see many optimizers choosing High Elf or Human so they can get +2 Int +1 Dex and True Strike on...

I think you are misunderstanding what I am saying If you are making a True Strike build generally you get to 20 int/whatever as soon as possible Then you would focus on maxing dexterity for AC It is harder to do this with sage because you cannot start with 16 in dexterity That is all I meant

There is no accuracy loss in using True Strike versus a normal ranged weapon

Rogues don’t have many options for extra damage, True Strike adds additional d6 as you level up, and accuracy for True Strike builds are the same as ranged builds if you spec into them while sacrificing some AC in exchange for damage Melee build is better with only Dex

Just adding that Elves can choose their spell casting stat so it is still a decently versatile option Elven Lineage: Choose a lineage from the Elven Lineages table below. You gain the level 1 benefit of that lineage and when you reach character levels 3 and 5, you learn a higher-level spell...

Rogues generally still prefer to have higher DEX than CON for AC and stealth checks, especially if they are already splitting it with INT/WIS as their main attacking stat However you can also get True Strike from High Elf

What is the mechanical difference between a spell scroll and wand of magic missiles in your interpretation?

Scrolls can allow the player to cast spells they do not know, it is not just a buff, also casting spells have an assigned action; the Magic action.

Wand of the War Mage is a constantly active buff the player receives while it is equipped, same as the Bracers of Archery, it is not an item you utilize

There are not 3 types of Magic actions, and I do not understand why you keep mentioning this. There is an action called the Magic action that has multiple triggers. The predominate one is casting a spell. Each turn you spend casting a spell is also considered the Magic action. Using a magic item...
