    Level Up (A5E) More love for archers?

    You could write up another combat tradition, or more archetypes, etc, and submit it when the next pitch call goes around.

    Level Up (A5E) LevelUp Tools Site: Searching Spells

    Is it possible to search spells by whether or not they require concentration?

    Level Up (A5E) Motif Classes: An alternative to Synergy Feats and Prestige Classes

    I think it’s unfortunate that I’m the first person here with this attitude, but I LOVE the Lancer (gave me strong Windrunner vibes [Stormlight Archives]), which is an automatic win. But I also think you are hitting the nail on the head with this. Prestige classes and synergy feats are awesome...

    Official News Dungeon Delver's Guide: Let’s Go Shopping

    This is the first time in a long while that I find myself as interested in a book's equipment as is class options. Lots of promise here.

    Level Up (A5E) Do you plan to back Dungeon Delver’s Guide?

    If the Sanderson Kickstarter hadn't taken (and exceeded) my Kickstarter budget this year, I'd be all over it.

    Level Up (A5E) A dismal deficiency of druids and a sorry scarcity of sorcerers

    Gimme my necromancer-adjacent fungalmancer. Circle of the Spores for O5e didn't quite scratch the itch right.

    Level Up (A5E) How come phantasmal force isn't in LU?

    Use it anyway. Or give the monster a unique ability that is functionally identical.

    Homebrew Magical Combatants - Three 1/3 Martial Archetypes with Prepared Maneuvers

    I would state that you are able to create your pact weapon for free, then, just so there's no ambiguity. I also might reiterate that creating a new pact weapon causes the previous one to disappear, and that if you have a bound weapon it can be summoned to your hand for free.

    Homebrew Magical Combatants - Three 1/3 Martial Archetypes with Prepared Maneuvers

    I mean, the game designers already made the game so one dip into fighter provides the best maneuver degree progression and guaranteed Exertion, so for better or for worse (personally, I don't think it matters at all) the game already runs that way. I don't think you need to try to design your...

    Homebrew Magical Combatants - Three 1/3 Martial Archetypes with Prepared Maneuvers

    I think "Armed to the Teeth" could use some rewording. It's not entirely clear when or why your natural weapon attacks count as Heavy for the purpose of using a combat maneuver. I'm also curious how many wild shapes would actually be able to make use of the Mounted feature. Non-Skinchanger...

    Homebrew Magical Combatants - Three 1/3 Martial Archetypes with Prepared Maneuvers

    My first thought when reading this: you commented that these are pretty similar at lower levels, and at least to me that suggests you want them to be more different/unique with their combat maneuvers. Herald proves, in the base rules, that unique access to Exertion for maneuvers using a class's...

    Homebrew Magical Combatants - Three 1/3 Martial Archetypes with Prepared Maneuvers

    The page wrapping makes it difficult to read - many class features are cut off.

    Level Up (A5E) Draft of the Bladesworn Warlock: an A5e Hexblade and 1/3 Martial

    Here's a fun combination with Unending Wheel: Throwing Stance + Dreadful Wield — you can now throw your eldritch blast! I think that's hilarious.

    Level Up (A5E) Draft of the Bladesworn Warlock: an A5e Hexblade and 1/3 Martial

    I like it! Looks like a lot of fun! First of all, love that you give several options for features at two different levels. In my opinion, regular choices (even nested within other choices) are one of the best parts of A5e, and I love it when people lean into that. Requiring Pact of the...

    Level Up (A5E) Which Comabt Traditions should an A5e Hexblade have access to?

    ... Alright then! Should have looked at both rather than just rogue. Interesting.

    Level Up (A5E) Which Comabt Traditions should an A5e Hexblade have access to?

    Sounds pretty fair to me. Personally, to keep things simple, if I'm not following the Herald table then I'd follow the Rogue table… which does grant 4th degree maneuvers, but late, and no 5th degree.

    Level Up (A5E) Which Comabt Traditions should an A5e Hexblade have access to?

    A lot of this discussion has been around using archetypes to give warlocks martial maneuvers, but I think it would be just as effective to have an invocation that provides access to a combat tradition (and more flexible, since you wouldn’t be locked into one archetype if you wanted to...

    Level Up (A5E) Interest in a Heritage with Two Bodies?

    I'm not sure if this is the direction you're going with it, but swarm/hive mind heritages have always interested me.

    Level Up (A5E) About Parrying

    As a DM, I would interpret "once before your next turn" to mean once per round, period—not once per weapon per round. However, I don't think there's anything game-breaking about interpreting it the other way.
