5 out of 5 rating for Eyes of the Stone Thief As someone who is not fond of traditional dungeon crawls, I really enjoyed running this one as a GM. It is a massive, sprawling, modular set of impressive locations tied together by a great plot, but at the same time very easy to reconfigure and...

The only concern I have about tactical depth provided by the class is with having so few slots available. with only 2 till level 11, it may risk to become two good shots per fight (assuming you got a rest before) and then it's just EB spam. Hope it's not going to be the case. I would have liked...

I see it in these terms: the Warlock doesn't have much of a strategic overlay once in play, since its resources are fixed upon build. However the class may be more tactically involved than others, given the very limited number of spell slots compared to known spells. How you decide to spend...

I tend to agree. It seems to hit kind of sweetspot. For me it definitely is the class I'm more keen to try out. It probably requires some strategic/tactical thinking for resource management, but that can add to the fun of it.

I wouldn't do that, for balance considerations mentioned already in the thread. You may consider allowing OA 1/turn, with the clause that as soon as one is performed that burns the reaction for the round. Still you should expect some spikes (thinking about a rogue Sneak Attack for instance)...

I feel the same. I call it the 'depression spiral' in that the character is at its best at the very start of the [time unit], and from there on things can only get worse. I'm very much in favor of counter mechanics which can allow for cool things to stay or become available as the fight goes on...

Me neither. Actually it's how I do stances in my homebrew system (minus the breaking on damage) Indeed. And it's the only caster that intrigues me to play - but I have to say that the bard has definitely gone up in consideration upon this thread! One can hope. I personally think the required...
