this. 4th level slot only if I have a good Summon X Spell, the 2nd attack is worth the 4th level slot. Beholder from Summon aberration is a great 4th level spell. otherwise 2×1st level and 1×2nd level, Shield, absorb elements, Silvery barbs, Invisibility, Misty step... all great spells to have...

this needs to be 5th level, or 7th at the latest.

other solution. remove CON; give everyone +2 HP per level for PCs. 90% of PC characters have 14 CON anyway. Use abilities ONLY for ABILITY checks. AC, DC, attack, damage, number of usages of limited abilities, ALL tied to proficiency bonus. I.E: AC: light armor: 11+prof bonus, 12+prof...

more abilities, more opportunity to dump a stat or two without real penalty.

these are great as experiment or a guide line, but only one "table" really matters for leveling, At what point will your type of players be bored with their level? when you use all your new abilities several time, it gets "old", so you want to try new stuff. personally, after 5th level, 3 or...

I would say only Arcana, spell power is already in the scroll, it does not need to be bargained for, you just need to utilize it. ofc, you can flavor it that the complete spell is NOT in the scroll but just instructions on how to access it, so it might require different checks, but I like to...

This is why I like all 3 mental stats under one. High Cunning(int+wis+cha) just means that you are good at all things somewhat. If you want to be considered educated, get proficiency in Arcana, History, Nature, Religion. If you really want to be considered educated get expertise in one or even...

I would go the opposite way and reduce it to only 4 abilities. 1. Strength: Current STR+CON combined armor limit, melee+thrown attack+damage, bonus HPs, Athletics skill, carry capacity all current STR and CON saves 2. Dexterity: Current DEX, AC bonus init bonus finesse+ranged attack+damage...

maybe too much bonus action things from the start. one smite on your turn as free action will not break anything, somehow getting 8 or 9 of them on 1st turn was absolutely gamebreaking. smite is great for paladins, it gives option to play a simple character. just use all slots for smite. as...

twin spell was the only thing that sorcerer could have said, In this thing, I'm better than a wizard. so new twin spell is fail IMHO. paladin smite was over correction. smite was never the problem. the fighter2/Gloomstalker3/Assassin3/paladin2, +10 levels of your choice to get extra attack...

they should have kept that magic weapons beat some resistance/immunity and maybe go to the 3E version with needing +X weapons for certain mosters, I.E: all elder dragons can only be hurt by +3 weapons, all other magic weapons deal half damage and immunity to non magical weapons. Vampire...

not at all convoluted, and I agree dips are cheese most of the time, but even split MC characters suck 99% of the time.

with art like this, I am more and more in favor of AI.

Other: classes are just guidelines for new players that cannot make their own class that defines their vision of their character.

multiclassing within one level sucks, multiclassing with dips sucks even more, I like multiclassing with even levels, so there is a house rule: at levels 5,8,11,14,17 and 20 you get dual class levels, as low level features are less valuable than high level ones. at level 20, you are 13/13...
