Sure, that makes sense. But I'm also against those spells. Hex, Hunter's Mark, even Eldritch Blast. If a 1st level spell or a cantrip is so tied to the concept of the class, then you find design space to incorporate it into the class. You don't cop out and make it a spell, eligible to be...

Ok, so looking at the class a few times, I have the following thoughts: 1) Magical Tinkering does not belong. It seems to be a ribbon ability, but it is basically a reskinned Prestidigitation that lasts longer. This wouldn't necessarily be a problem, but the ability is weighted heavily enough...

I'm incredibly disappointed with this latest iteration. Neither subclass needs pets. Create a new subclass specifically made for pets, and free up design space for abilities that are more thematically aligned for the other two. I also don't like the way they are handling the cantrips and...

Well, it doesn't have to be a mystical or magical thing. Though, if you have magic users and monks in your group, it isn't such a stretch since there is precedent for that kind of thing. But it could be a mundane explanation as well. As I think someone else in the thread had mentioned (sorry...

dnd4vr Not meaning to sound disrespectful (but certainly recognizing my question can be be seen as such), but have you asked your player how they imagine it works? Did you give them a chance to solve the "problem"? The way I see it, D&D is composed of mechanics and how we see imagine, or "skin"...

For sure! Hope it was helpful and happy gaming!

Ok, thanks for reminding me of those. But I think these feat examples only reinforce that Radiant Wings is balanced with fly speed and nothing more. Let's start with Drow High Magic. The strongest ability you get is a once per day 3rd level spell with Dispel Magic. While useful, you aren't...

I'm not sure I recall any feats that are specific to a particular surface. The only one that comes to mind is the gnome svirfneblin. I could be wrong though.

So this is a good point. If this is an Aasimar specific feat, then it benefits the other subraces too. And those 2 other ones don't gain flight. If you aren't including an ASI, I'd keep the feat limited flight equal to movement speed. Not other bonus or synergy between the feat and the Radiant...

Well, once again, it depends on your priorities and how you envision your character to function within the limits of existing mechanics. If you want always on flight, that is pretty much the limit of what can be achieved by a feat. Yes, aasimar already get flight, but it's limited to once per...

Yes, but being able to access the fly spell is different than granting an ability that is similar. For one, Fly requires resource expenditure of a 3rd level spell slot, which is quite valuable, and also requires concentration. Thus the Fly spell limits your ability to cast other concentration...

So if we follow the structure of previous feats with similar abilities, we have Urd Wings from Xanathar's Bonus Racial feats which grant kobolds a 30ft flight speed and a +1 to Dex, and we have Dragon Wings which was in UA but not officially published. This granted flight, but only 20ft and...

Personally, I think it is a little weak for a feat to make the ability from long rest to short rest. Especially if you typically only get one short rest between long rests. But I don't think it would merit a +1 stat boost like other half feats. I would recommend one of the following in addition...

I think it's fair to question the data we have been given and the conclusions WotC has made. But as I said before, it makes me wonder why this is being released. What is WotC's goal in providing these graphs? But I don't think the data is without value. But then, we really haven't been given...

Sure, not disputing the value of the data. But it also depends on the questions you are asking and what purpose the data will be used for. If WotC is trying to use this data to determine how they approach future content, are they appealing more to the audience that already buys and uses their...

I disagree. Because this data is only representative of players that use D&D Beyond. That is a subset of the total population, and thus generalizations or conclusions made based on that data may be skewed based on the qualities shared within that population that are not as well represented in...

Maybe its not a bell. Maybe its a hat or helm of a tiny fairy that eventually finds the group and asks for it back. It's a family heirloom said to have been touched by Queen Mab herself, and the fairy will be indebted to the character for giving it back.
