You don't even commune with the local land, you can just pick whatever.

Not much of an upgrade IMO :p

Again, that's mostly a new development because the old version is described as such: And this new version can pick whatever Land they want after a long rest regardless of where they are so the 'new flavour' doesn't match either? Yeah it's kinda weird.

the Magician favours keeping high INT.

Yeah I don't mind the concept of retraining. If a player says "I made a mistake" or "this isn't working out like I expected" that's cool. Heck, I once entirely rebuild one of my character in a different class after just one session. But when you jettison your class identity every long rest to...

Well the 5e Circle of Land doesn't have anything that could be useless in specific terrains. It's just more spells, slot recovery, some movement ability and a few protections against Fey, Elementals, Beast and Plants. So it wasn't an issue before and if it would be now it's because of something...

Feels like resistance could have been covered by a spell and the Land druids could have embraced their themes better. Another way they could have done if go with a more Geomancy style where the surrounding environment has an impact. 'course it's more DM dependant but it could have been cool to...

Apparently Seekers made great hybrids with the Martial Ranger.

Biggest issue is they had split them into 'land/sea/air' instead of addressing the ACTUALY REASONS people use wild shape. What they needed is a separation based on purposes: Scouting (or infiltration), Travel, Tanking (with Moon druids getting a 'Predator' template for battle). Which is what...

Calling it 'Warden' feels like taunting us 4e fans... And why 'Magician' and not 'Shaman'?! That feels far more thematic. What's the point of the martial weapon proficiency for a druid? They already got Shilleleagh and Wildshape? Interesting! I find the Druid has basically the most fun cantrips...

Or maybe limit it to certain schools? Or the chosen spells have to be from three different schools?

Maybe something like 'Ancient Secret Styles'? It's not that it's broken, it's just that I don't like the aesthetics of 'any spell'. It doesn't feel like a coherent style, restricting it to specific spells would give it a stronger flavour. I get it, but it's just boring, I'd rather have variety...

Skill issue :p

Sorry I didn't comment sooner! Here's a series of disjointed comments as I read through it. - HP : I think you could go d10 hit dice. - Shield use: I think you should just let the Monk pick up Shield prof if they want, and not mention it as a limitation. I think it could lead to more varied...

I mean it's not like they tried, like they did with psionic a few times.

People weren't given a chanc to like it.

That would still give us 13 classes. Maybe the Psion can be 14th?

It was an 80's cartoon, nobody thought about that stuff, it's not that complicated.

Don't know why they didn't just stick the Samurai in there? "Get Advantage whenever you want with some temp HP 3 times per day" feels pretty darn simple to me? And the social goodies are nice and Samurai are generally seen as cool. None of the other features are particularly complex. Rapid...

True, true, I mostly meant in combat.
