If the goal is to discourage the party from doing such things, here are some ideas that might help: 1) In combat, have some enemies spend actions rousing/healing fallen companions to get them back on their feet. Having a consequence to leaving enemies alive may make the party less inclined to...

I think the issue with Witch Bolt is that it *could* be awesome, but has a few too many weaknesses. If the sustained damage scaled when cast at higher level, it might be worth it. If it wasn't so trivial for the enemy to get out of range and break it, it might be worth it. If it had some effect...

Class Features like "Set Off Traps from 30' away" or "Spend 2 minutes trying to Unlock a Door at range" don't sound particularly compelling to me. I'm chiming in with the rest that tihs ruling is way too harsh. Intentionally crippling one of the defining abilities of a character should really...

I'm not too disappointed in the abilities, but the poison does seem weak. And while the level 1 perk is nice, every other Domain seems to get 2-3 perks, so that seems a curious omission. If I was to fix it, I'd probably give them a bonus skill proficiency at level 1 (choose from Acrobatics...

Yeah, it is a very interesting mix of abilities. It gets Martial Weapons, and a Channel Divinity that keys off melee, and Divine Strike. But it also has a core feature about boosting a cantrip, and a spell list with several debuffing rays and similar effects. There is something to be said for...

I don't believe this actually works - you use the Maximize when rolling damage, not when casting the spell. So you can spend the Channel Divinity to maximize a single bolt, but not every bolt for the entire spell.

The Death cleric looks like it has a couple nice things going for it. I rather like the spell list, the ability to snag Chill Touch and tag multiple targets gives a very nice ranged option, and bypassing necrotic resistance lets it focus on its specialty without needing to spend a feat. The main...

Yeah - I think they can bring some useful ranged capabilities to the table (multi-target Acid Splash, the ability to slow + kite with Ray of Frost), but the damage being so unpredictable is definitely a big deal. Now, can you build a wizard that occupies that archer role? Sure, once you've got...

Well, it was my first ENWorld post in years, after 5E lured me back. So glad it was a good one. :) Of their 1st level spells, I think the ones that have the most oomph are in the Controller / Debuffer role. Color Spray, Grease, Ray of Sickness, Sleep, and Tasha's all can have a solid impact on...

I like the idea of Concentration, but it does seem like they went a bit overboard in how many spells use it. Having to choose which awesome buff to have up is great! But having to choose between having a buff vs enchanting an enemy vs creating terrain seems a bit harsher. And yeah, for True...
