I'm operating under the assumption that OP is the cleric, got dropped and is salty.

This seems like a lot more work than just letting him change classes.

I appreciate you summing his behavior up for those of us who weren't around.

Wow. Dude is unhinged.

Oh, man. I hadn't even considered casters as endless artillery. Unless AoEs were extremely rare, armies wouldn't even exist. From a world building stand point this would be huge. I imagine there would be a lot of skirmishes and small group raids. Conflicts would be more personal. Of course, easy...

Based on OPs post, this looks more like modifications to an existing system. I assumed 5e, and I doubt I was the only one.

What all of those have in common is a cost. With unlimited casting that cost disappears.

You may have a point. If. Casters can sling their best spells at will, maybe martials shouldn't have to worry about HP.

I keep getting stuck on healing. Any heal spell becomes infinite healing between fights. I've thought of 2 possible fixes. The first was mentioned early in the thread, 4e style healing surges that are triggered by the spell, but only if you have uses left. The second, I find more elegant...

Ah, yes. The editions where wizards spent more loot on darts than they did on spell components.

With 7 players, I'd lean towards something heavy on social interaction, and light on combat and exploration. Social situations can involve more players at once, which limits down time for everyone. Maybe the PCs are part of a trade caravan. Some could be travelers or pilgrims that were adopted...

Skills. So much promise. So little follow through.

Well, shucks. I learned something today.

WTH, man? -Planescape

I was going to defend the trog encounter, because i thought you were over reacting, but this would actually be pretty tough for a fully rested level 1 party with no AoE or control spells. (attacks at +4, doing 1d4+2 damage on a hit, and having 13HP with an 11AC.) 12 attacks with roughly 40%...

Personally, I prefer point buy, but my players like to roll. If we want even PCs, we roll one set of stats for the whole group to use, and then I give them a free +2 (or several +2s) to get to the power level I want to play at. That way players can take feats, run monks that are more than cannon...

I can't believe you guys are so bad with history. Magic has never changed, but how mortals interact with it has evolved over the ages. Back when the world was young, before their realms were sundered from our own plane, and the gods walked among us, mortal magic was common but rarely powerful...

Are you asking a question? I'll assume it's "how do you feel about..." As a way of differing spellcasters, I'm not opposed to spells at different levels for different classes, but there are more appealing ways to go. Class specific spells is my favorite. Paladins having exclusive access to...

Could it be an issue? Sure, but I think that would require either a DM with almost nonexistent interpersonal skills, or an absolutely rabid player. They both exist, but I don't think either are as common a social media would lead you to believe. IME, players who encounter slavery in games just...
