Exactly! Hopefully finishing up the beta on all the adaptations today.

Nah, I meant it to be more generic. Someone could play it that way, though. I'm working on an expansion right now, actually!

I want to see at least two things, on top of general polish and balancing: Use Magic Points (call them MP instead of Spell Points because SP already means Silver Pieces) or Warlock's pact magic slots. Psions need to feel different on the player side of play. MP are already roughly balanced, the...

The ignore resistance portion of Elemental Adept really shouldn't be considered for the balance of the feat; that part is just to let someone play the character they wanted to play no matter what the DM wanted to throw at them. It could possibly have "deal half damage to creatures with immunity"...

@doctorbadwolf , sorry for spamming, but I just dusted off my last full ranger rewrite attempt, thought I'd share it with you, see if you like any of it. I feel like it balances against the Rogue if you assume an Arcane Trickster rogue gets as much oomph from its subclass abilities and spells as...

Oooh! As long as the table knows how to run stealth (invisible doesn't mean hidden) that could be really cool and really flavorful! Could also replace the dark vision invisibility thing that I get so frustrated adjucating at the table.

Beast Master: if you do not command your beast to use an action, it can use its action to attack the target of your Hunter's Mark on its own. Hunter: you know the resistances, immunities, and vulnerabilities of creatures affected by your Hunter's Mark, and you score critical hits on rolls of 19...

I love the concept of adding a rider for every subclass, but it that does require a lot of work and a lot of player buy in (I have a list of 10 generic and I think archetypal ranger subclasses I'm working on, mostly because of my distaste for hyperspecific subclasses and compound words). But my...

Bestow Curse is 3rd level for 1d8, but it lasts only a minute, has no rider (if you choose the damage option), but the damage applies to whenever you deal damage with an attack or spell so conceivably it could proc more if you're creative. Conjure Minor Elementals is 4th level for 2d8 and lasts...

Bonus action to cast it, class ability lets you cast it as part of the Attack action or as part of a Search or Study action when investigating their tracks or active perceptioning the creature. It's late, I can't word.

I feel like we almost have elemental domains already, but they were made thematic rather than generic. Tempest feels like an air or water domain. Light feels like a fire domain. Forge feels like a fire or earth domain. Nature feels like an earth or elemental domain. Someone asked something...

Like 5.14 Barbarians.

But when you use divine smite in combat, it's one target and it's done, except hex and Hunter's Mark have the added utility of skill penalty or skill bonuses if that's called for. There is a disconnect, I'm not seeing it. A 1 minute duration would be useless out of combat. I suppose making a...

I'm really feeling like people didn't read my original post? I did increase the die size. Or are you saying beyond 1d6>2d6>3d6? As I showed in my first post, those dice line up with Smite's damage, with a balance point between 2 and 3 hits. My issue with the existing Hex and Hunter's Mark is...

I doubt it, but I'll keep an eye with my players. I think it's all about perception.
