    Meet Pathfinder 2's Cleric; Plus Spellcasting Basics!

    According to this site, you are correct with conjure elemental, but not on wall of fire. I seem to remember clerics being able to have bless and hold person up simultaneously, and wizards able to have fly and invisibility up simultaneously.

    [PF2] Cleric class preview + spells per level

    I think you're neglecting to mention the biggest difference that Concentration in 5E made. In past editions, spells that required you to actively concentrate on them were few and far between, and were usually divinations that you would rarely use in combat. 5E put Concentration on buffs and...

    [PF2] Cleric class preview + spells per level

    I don't think it's possible to do this since the 5E chassis doesn't have the "hooks" that you would need to do it. The multiclassing restrictions, ASIs/feats sharing the same resource, that resource being a class feature instead of a character feature, archetypes being something you can only...

    D&D 5E (2014) Can you locate multiple objects of the same type with "locate object"?

    According to this very wise poster from the "annoying spells" thread from a few weeks ago, the purpose of the spell is finding stuff that has been stolen from you, or to sate your sudden hunger for strawberries.

    D&D 5E (2014) Can you locate multiple objects of the same type with "locate object"?

    I think the text pretty clearly says the answer to your first question is "no, it will merely point to the closest bunch". What isn't so clear is, after you've gathered the berries from the first bush, if the spell would now point to your pouch. :)

    [PF2] Cleric class preview + spells per level

    Apparently not, because in that Cleric thread someone quoted another blog: So paleo-vancian casting is here to stay. I had such high hopes, because Paizo had already given the blueprint for neo-vancian casting with the Arcanist, and then 5E gave it to all the full casters in that game.

    I'm reading the blog post on Paizo, and this comment from Mark has me dismayed: It sounds like old vancian casting is sticking around. I was really hoping that this sacred cow would be slaughtered and the pieces scattered among the cosmos for good.

    D&D 5E (2014) Divisions of power: Spell lists

    If I were to create a "streetsmart urban spellcaster", druid would probably be at the bottom of the list of classes to consider, but hey, whatever works for you! :)

    I'm also skeptical of their "nothing is set in stone" stance. I believe small tweaks here and there based on the playtest might be possible, but major design elements aren't going anywhere.

    I don't know why; PF2 classes are looking a lot more modular than PF1, essentially allowing you to build your own class. It's better this way than finding archetypes that trade out the features you don't like and hoping they will give you ones you do.

    D&D 5E (2014) Damage types: How much is a point of [x] damage worth?

    Cool, I'll check this out when I get home (my employer blocks Google Docs). Something else I thought of... how common are monsters that absorb damage (like the Flesh Golem)?

    This is awesome. Is there any chance you could provide your raw data?

    D&D 5E (2024) Would 4 spell lists work in D&D (maybe 6e)?

    As I mentioned in the thread where this was announced, I think the idea is very elegant, and facilitates future extensibility very well. You can still keep the school associations if that's important to you, but decoupling spells from classes make it so every new spellcasting class that comes...

    Which acrylic paints do you recommend?

    About 30 years ago, I was really into plastic models of military vehicles and men. A family friend who was big into competitive modeling got me started on using Tamiya acrylics, and I've sworn by them ever since. I've used them to paint plastic and metal, they blend well, and they last forever...
