Depends on how much player wants to make it. It is possibly different with clerics, depending on settings. But, Warlock can just be another variation of wizard/sorcerer, maybe not with better chassis, but sure more customizable. As for patron, it can be equalized with sorcerer origins, might...

1. remove subclass features from warlock 2. remove mystic arcanum from warlock like in playtest. 3. make those invocations. 4. add 10 more invocations slots. 5. Profit!

I ignore all rankings that are 3 or more ranks away from my ranking. I admit I am maybe slightly wrong on all rankings, but I refuse that I am that wrong. hahaha.

I think that all those are great tools to help built a background and facilitate great roleplay opportunity, be it from DM side or player side. But, if someone likes a paladin mechanically and want to play it as some "fighter" mercenary sell-sword, why not? And I had my fill of Lawful stupid...

this is baked in with damage die and possible reach. yeah, it's too simplified but it kind of works. smaller weapons do not get better weapon speed so larger do not get AC.

Since there is little problems with using short rests in 5E. As in, they are not really short and most of the time when you are able to take a short rest, you can take a long rest. With that said, spending HDs is not really a cost as in most days you don't even spend a single HD, so this is just...

maybe because it was best designed class, especially when we only had 2014 PHB. In the era of feats are optional and complicated and what not, warlock was only class that came with 8 build-in feat slots. maybe not as good as general feats, but they were yours to pick from.

Sorry, didnt make myself clear. I would rather have free Multiclassing that no multiclassing at all, no matter if it gets slightly off the rails. But, my suggestions are to keep the essence of 5E multiclassing, but keeping it in line. yes, it's similar to 2E in solution. we played that, worked...

well, that Insight proficiency/expertise is not going to train itself.

yes, al carte multiclassing is a problem, yet I would not play a game without it. One solution is simple. Only 2 classes per character. that cuts down on 90% of the cheese. other solution is forced even split between two classes. But that in general makes mechanically bad characters. you need...

OK, smite change is a definition of overcorrection. Smite by itself was not probably a big problem. Problem was frankenstein multiclassing. Assassin/fighter/gloomstaleker with 2 levels of paladin was the problem. Simple solution would be: ONCE on YOUR turn you can use Smite after you hit...

This is somewhat true, but might be for the best. 1st, sling should be a martial weapon, it's even harder to learn than a bow. 2nd, you need more space to wind up the sling, this might increase your grid size to 10x10. But that can be handwaved away. Still it's hassle to use in formation. 3...

having push mastery on all reach weapons and ability to make AoO(by default or by feat) would make lost of way to make them useful. losing 10ft of movement after AoO could mean not being able to get into melee reach. Then next turn you have that problem again.

problem is that Reach weapons were "simplified" from 3rd Ed. Why? because WotC thinks we are dumb, obviously. Hehe. When you had 10ft reach and your opponent had only 5ft, you would get AoO before that opponent attacked you. with Combat reflexes feat, you could do it several time per round. It...

problem with fighters is that is made simple for whatever reasons and presents some mundane fighter without any special flavor or background. and with more attacks than any other martials, with Action surge, fighter is best at combat, even if it's for a round. And if it's a 1st round, then all...

it's a nice overview and attempt to merge reality with gameplay logics and that it does not need to meet 100% of the time. also I agree with most suggestions on what mastery should go on what weapon. and what I have stated many times here; ALL crossbows/guns should be simple weapons. ALL bows...

Going to give it 7, maybe it was a 6, but in general I love 5E and how easy is to modify it for house rules. why not higher or even 10? 1. Too much backtrack on good ideas for UA playtest. everything was sacrificed on altar of muh-compatibilitah, and all that compatibility will be thrown out...

I would say that the main part of D&D is the progression of the story made by DM(of published). If you kill everyone the story ends. Sure you can continue campaign with brand new PC group, but you are basically starting from start. but I do agree that fights need to be lethal. we now play as...

I agree that adding new cool features to NPCs is a good thing and as a DM you should do it, I do also agree that you do not need more than 5 minutes to make 10th level rogue, PHB rules or otherwise. As for divine strike, if you want to keep it somewhat in PHB power level, it can be a feat...
