Nah. When some of us realize roving granting a swim speed also removes penalties for fighting in the water it will be "push them into the moat, push them into the moat, push them into the moat" 🙃 Someone just pointed out the fallacy in comparing a class to a subclass. ;-) It would be more...

I'm showing swift quiver still requires concentration in my digital copy. Do we know if that's a bug?

So you don't support my option to pay 300gp per spirit guardians spell in any town or city (per Chpt 6 under spell casting services) and choose to have it cast while being launch through the air by catapult or trebuchet for mass aerial combat? Cuz it sounds like something I would put into a web...

This is an idea I've been toying with but haven't implemented yet in the past. It's the idea of a bard based around the themes of dreams and nightmares as sources of emotion and motivation. The idea comes mainly from Alice Cooper's portrayal in Dynamite Comics' CHAOS! universe as the Lord of...

So if experienced DM's aren't going to have any issues, what's the impact with new or inexperienced DM's?

So the basic equipment list does include spell scrolls. Characters have the option to purchase cantrip spell scrolls for 30 gp and 1st level spell scrolls for 50 gp. It's always the DM's prerogative to decide what the availability of adventuring gear is available in a shop, but I foresee this...

A lot of those abilities add to the weapon damage or attack damage in their wording. They should apply.

A greater degree of diversity in fighting style feats would be my first thought. My second thought is that an eldritch knight subbing in truestrike, green-flame blade, or booming blade for an attack adds several more dice into the equation. Truestrike dice at 11th level is 4d6 using a...

Ohh..... I can play this game! 🙃 Let's say...... The champion fighter picked up the light cantrip via origin feat or species and doesn't need blindfighting or darkvision........ :p There aren't 1d6 greatweapons. The average damage on something like a great axe is worse of a bonus than it...

For people figuring out second wind healing, 2024 fighters start with 2 now and 3 or 4 later. They regain 1 on a short rest and all on a long rest. If we're talking tiers of play we should have 3+1 per short rest in tier 2 and 4+1 per short rest in tiers 3 and 4. ie. It's not hard for a...

You seem to be missing my point. I don't need to try to fit eldritch blast in at all so why would I be trying to under that premise? I can take minor illusion, mage hand, and another cantrip like friends or blade ward because I get a free damage cantrip. Sure, I can get more damage out of...

Maybe. But it doesn't work for my nightmare bard theme. Alice Cooper's character in comics inspired through terror as he expressed that it's okay to feel terror as one works through it. His main ability was to warp the perception of others and matching that to what they feared, but also other...

Yeah, I was also tempted to variate the name for my next character who is a glamour bard based on Alice Cooper's role in Dynamite Comics' CHAOS! Universe as the Lord of Nightmares. Main focus of illusions and fear. Except without nick or vex in the build the variations were hard to come up...

That depends on how large and structured those encounters are. I add timed events on subsequent rounds in large encounters, for example.

Yes, they can still swap on leveling up.

Really. For 2 reasons. The first reason is we're not looking at eldritch blast vs sacred flame. We're looking at eldritch blast vs sacred flame plus another cantrip because sacred flame is free and eldritch blast is not. So the evaluation becomes eldritch blast for more damage versus sacred...

I'm not sure "suffers" is the right word here. Radiant soul applies to radiant or fire spells and celestial warlock adds sacred flame automatically. Later it adds wall of fire. Truestrike is already and option and so is hellish rebuke. Pact of the tome can easily add more cantrips to which...

I don't think that was the point. Healing spells in combat was one of the most inefficient ways to spend actions and spell slots. Why would my character heal d8+3 if the action to use that 1st level spell slot can prevent damage from 5 attacks with a different spell? Healing didn't need a...

I see it as a cantrip that does damage with a weapon attack as part of that damage. Here is the sage advice... Truestrike follows this as well. The character uses the magic action to cast the spell and the weapon attack is made as part of that magic action. Agonizing blast is applied to a...

We already had this discussion with green-flame blade. Sage advice stated sneak attack does work with spells like that iirc.
