They absolutely have more options than O5E. I agree that melee feels much better with the maneuvers. I had two players making characters and they were struggling to pick their second school after taking Biting Zephyr. None of the other schools gave them options they felt interested in...

I have been going through the Combat Maneuvers and beyond Biting Zephyr it seems very limited for combat maneuvers that help with ranged weapons. Would it break anything to open this up more by letting some of the maneuvers work with ranged weapons? I can't but wonder if the limit to mostly...

I also noticed this section and wondered how would this work with archetypes designed to use spell slots for non spell use. For instance the most recent Drakewarden can use its 1st level slots to raise its Drake and use its 3rd level slots for its breath. As written they would not be able to do...

Yeah so far I have been giving them combat maneuvers equivalent to other classes (just saying use their progression). Full martials follow Ranger/Rogue/Adept etc. (I am purposefully not saying fighter since they get more and I think they should have the most). For now half-casters I have just...

I am not trying to derail this thread but I agree with people mentioning problems adapting third party classes to A5e. I really like what I am seeing from A5e and from my cursory glance all the subclasses should work fine and even lead to more interesting combinations. Third party classes though...

As to vetting players for online the problem is that these people are my friends (again to me this is every bit about the social aspect as much as the game). I played with them in person before the pandemic. It feels messed up to tell them no you cannot keep playing with us while we are playing...

I can see why some people are all in on VTT but I find it has issues. I run 3 games in VTT currently one of which transitioned from in person. Firstly I admit I really enjoy the social aspect of meeting up with friends talking and sharing together. To the people mentioning facial queues I agree...
