I've been giving Blessing of the Moonwells more thought. If a person uses their bonus action to cast it then they can use a magic action on that first turn to move it as well by doing that after the bonus action. That increases the damage possibilities and the healing.

The lack of duration and magic action allows for one tale to be active at a time all the time. It's clunky but I can understand it. Everyone is going to use Mirth, however. I can see using Life outside of combat but it's a low bonus. I might see using Gloam in combat if I was out of spell...

The concentration doesn't bother me because working around concentration has been going on for a decade now. I think the moonwell blessing needs a little bit more if it's supposed to be a major feature and worth a 3rd level spell slot. It's seems like it's more of a 2.5th spell level option...

If you're going to make house rules to "fix" what you don't like why wouldn't you just allow valor bards to use Bardic Inspiration on themselves while you're at it? "I don't like this about bladesingers so I'm going to house rule" and "I don't like this about valor bards so it's an excuse to...

This is a more detailed response after my initial reaction. The college of the moon associates with the Moonshae druids and the description states these bards are using the primal power of fey magic and the Moonwells. This is a significant flavor difference with primal vs arcane even if there...

That doesn't look like a lot of reasons. ;-P The first thing I would point out is that flavor is easier to change than rules, and bladesong is based in performance so that's not really off kilter as a bard. The second thing I would point out is that I don't think Bardic Inspiration ruins...

Moon Bard -- I always appreciate associations with druids because this is reminiscent of earlier bards in DnD and mythology. I can't expect anyone to not be using Tales of Mirth because a saving throw penalty seems much better than the other options. Primal Lorist should be more clear on...

First thoughts.... Magical Tinkering: This is a bit odd. The current version is that great either and this looks like an attempt to allow the artificer to create something useful as the need arises. That's situational and the list is meh anyway. This might reward creative players but I...

Of course an EK cannot cast cantrips they do not possess, which is why "your" wouldn't refer to ownership by the character. That would make it an unnecessary addition to the wording. That wording would allow for any cantrip taken from the wizard list. It's not the wording used, however. I...

That might be where the disconnect is coming from. It's a damage comparison where some builds are being compared that aren't as well designed for damage. I don't think damage is a great comparison for classes in the first place because it ignores other important aspects, but if we're comparing...

I can say that "your" is extraneous language in your tests. Take out the word and all wizard spells applies. Leave in the word and we're reading through the lens of the class structure to apply ownership. That's a nuance WotC should clear up. ;-)

Hex might work, but I try to limit concentration spells. I do not know if his math takes cover into consideration though so that might make a difference.

I think the rules do not allow for it by specifying your. I do not think it hurts anything either way though.

That would be easier if DDB released statistics on which classes take which feats at what levels for 2024 rules if they have enough data yet. War Caster was the most popular feat in 2020 so I think it typically is a safe assumption, especially for casters who start with a 17 ability score that...

By making choices to avoid needing that high ability score for the DC or attack bonus we are acknowledging that separate ability score and class spell list. It just becomes easier with an active choice to ignore the those details based on that spell selection. With the CHA based EK and warlock...

You might be misremembering Tasha. The psi dice restored on a long rest and there was a weird way of saying one could be regained each short rest. The end result was have a single extra die before the first short rest. The 2024 version looks almost identical to the Tasha version. The...

That's why the wording is included in the spellcasting section of classes that cast spells. The wording isn't included for the eldritch knight or arcane trickster. The language used in their spellcasting sections is "your wizard spells" and "the wizard spell list" instead. I was already...

This analogy is conflating quantitative with qualitative. It isn't a valid comparison because "charisma bonus" isn't a definitive quality. The only thing adding the charisma bonus does is define the number to be added when a feature instructs the player to add that number. Numbers can be...
