    D&D 5E (2024) Fighter brainstorm

    In a slightly different vein, for a warlock, EB+Agonizing Invocation+warlock spell list takes care of your contribution to combat pretty well, so your invocations can cover out of combat stuff (pretty much any invocation with the phrase "without using a spell slot" in it). There could be...

    D&D 5E (2024) Fighter brainstorm

    People often talk about doing the ranger like the warlock, but maybe the fighter is the better choice for it. I don't know if I would call them "martial invocations" (especially since I assume a few of them won't actually be martial), but someone who wants to be a simple champion can just pick...

    D&D 5E (2024) Fighter brainstorm

    I was trying not to think of that. Maybe they should have made rogues, monks, and barbarians a group instead of warriors. If crit hunter was a fighter thing instead of a subclass thing, then special crits (fighter and barbarian brutal critical) could be a nice thing to give to monks....

    D&D 5E (2024) Fighter brainstorm

    Just a random thought. If the big thing for experts was adding expertise (that two expert classes had) to the ranger, and the big thing for priests was adding channel (that two priest classes had) to druids, is there something that two warrior classes have that the third doesn't?

    D&D 5E (2024) Fighter brainstorm

    I think the warrior group's gimmick should be "second half superstars", or the guys and gals who really shine in the big fights when the casters are down to cantrips, and the rogue is making a run for it. I could see the fighter getting some kind of enhanced fighting styles that kick in when...

    D&D 5E (2024) Could Arcane Recovery be the link between Mage.

    I am sure it will be something like arcane recovery, but in the interest of contemplating interesting options: they could be to make metamagic a mage thing (and give sorcerers access to special metamagic that takes sorcery points). Or they could have some kind of special potion skill: wizards...

    D&D 5E (2024) Eldritch Blast as a class feature of the Warlock

    It occurs to me that EB might not actually be an intrinsic class feature, but rather an invocation. If warlocks get access to the whole arcane spell list, the rationale for a lot of invocations fades away.

    D&D 5E (2024) (+) Hopes for The Monk

    I would like the monk to get some kind of bloodied condition (or maybe as some kind of variant of second wind if they made that the warrior thing), so the first time (between short or long rests), the monk catches a beating, the spent ki points get restored (for example). Now the monk has a...

    D&D 5E (2024) Speculation on the next UA in April

    You didn't say "super advanced fighting style", so it doesn't count.

    D&D 5E (2024) Speculation on the next UA in April

    I am sure there will be plenty of new fighting styles, but I am not sure they intrinsically solve any problems for warriors. Barbarians and fighters aren't really suffering in the combat effectiveness department, and I doubt there is a fighting style that is going to solve the monks' problems...

    D&D 5E (2024) Eldritch Blast as a class feature of the Warlock

    The cleric is also a PR thing for the deity. Warlocks not so much for the patron. In fact, I could see devils empowering a warlock (or several warlocks) who would create chaos as a provocation for a kingdom to impose harsher laws. Those warlocks might think they were getting empowered by...

    D&D 5E (2024) Speculation on the next UA in April

    It is funny how "we only stole part of your gimmick" is okay for warriors, where it isn't for the other groups. I mean where is the petition for barbarians to get "limited expertise" or sorcerers to "channel magic" (although now that I think about it....).

    D&D 5E (2024) How should the Conjure X Spells & Planar Ally spells be handled in 1D&D?

    I like that, or they could borrow from the 4e warden (or the 5e Otherworldly Aspect spell) and you part of the appearance (and some helpful melee abilities) of the ally. It could even be simplified by have a "kit" for each domain.

    D&D 5E (2024) Speculation on the next UA in April

    The experts are united by expertise, and the priests by channel. I suspect the mages will be next, because all they need is for some mechanism to let them cast more spells than clerics, druids, and bards. That isn't too hard, which is why I think mages will be the next playtest. The warriors...

    D&D 5E (2024) Eldritch Blast as a class feature of the Warlock

    I like the idea that the patron consumes some of the hp's that EB takes (you notice it doesn't affect objects). EB could be pretty common among warlocks because it has the best ratio for spells (maybe the patron consumes 75% of the hp's, as opposed to only getting 25% from the fireball spell it...

    D&D 5E (2024) How should the Conjure X Spells & Planar Ally spells be handled in 1D&D?

    I know what you are saying, but, unless divine intervention goes away, "plot device" seems like pretty central to clerics. On top of that, why bother even having a spell named planar ally if the whole point is to pick what you want? Wouldn't it make more sense just to have conjure celestial...
