I feel it’s a bit of a shame the game is designed this way that you have to actively opt-out of having magic in your build choices so hard.

Crimson may have their own response but in general i feel we’ve been fairly consistent in saying that being able to directly manipulate details about a setting as a player (or having other players do the same) is un-immersive for us, (with a lack of immersion hilighting the artificial nature of...

i would've been interested in at least seeing how well 1/3rd casters could've been if they'd instead had a vastly larger quantity of their lower tier spell slots, so rather than an EK/AT ending up as 4-3-3-2 it was more (throwing example numbers at the wall here) 7-5-5-3

i don't see how pemerton can help that, you may have misread, it's their post anotherGuy wants to respond to.

that's good news at least.

keep em on their toes!

is this discussing archetype stereotypes or simply build stereotypes, because honestly inverted archetype sterotypes are pretty much as stereotypical as playing it straight nowadays, the tiefling warlock is as unoriginal as the tiefling cleric, you need to really tangent away from the species'...

it's spellcasting is delayed to 2nd mostly because that's how OP chose to implement it harkening back to AD&D. (plus there are no 2/3rd casters to base it off in 5th) you say it's weak, but what would you say is the greatest point of failure in my design(other than as you say in the other half...

Get the party to make a few group stealth checks, to determine how long it takes for the familiar to track them down, better checks means more time, then give them a perception check to notice it when it finds them to initiate a battle to kill it before it flies off (they always notice it the...

i think what would determine more if a lawful character would try to work towards making their environment follow their chosen rules more is if the rules themselves they have chosen to follow are intended to be applied to the larger populous, like laws obviously function like that and a lawful...

ah well, it's not like the druid list doesn't have some good picks from those categories, the healing spells your group most needed, stuff like faerie fire, thunderwave, lesser restoration, moonbeam and pass without trace, plus you've got the small handful of exemptions you can pick from the...

the 4 elements monk is such a good concept, it's such a shame they beefed it's design as hard as they did.

out of curiosity, are they still working with the abjuration/evocation restrictions of the EK with the druidic spell list?

i would have inspiration granted by adhering to TBIF but then have alignments serve as providing unique ways to spend that inspiration, each of good, evil, lawful, chaotic and neutral all having their own little list of special actions they can redeem for their inspiration. this way characters...

We are however, not playing/discussing upper paragon 4e, are we?

i tried putting together my own 2/3rds caster bard, thoughts? BARD -d8HD, -DEX and CHA save prof, -any 3 skills, -any 3 instruments, -disguise kit, -simple weapons, -light armour Level 1 -bardic inspiration (d6), -weapon mastery (2) Level 2 -spellcasting (cantrips, 1st level), -jack of all...

if you had done this outside the constraints of multiclassing, with the ability to pick and choose individual abilities outside of straight level progression do you think you would've done anything differently?

just to clarify, is this meant to be a 20 level progression for a bard class simulated by multiclassing the official bard with fighter and rogue?

The problem is the same issue you seem to have with our preferred playstyle: we find it un-immersive.

Implies, but far from confirms, that’s the snag, you’re leaping from a possibly of the state of fiction to assuming it as fact. Edit: Assuming the guy is there might be small potatoes, but the principle that it relies on getting used on more significant factors is a problem.
