Cleansing Touch didn't actually do anything with poison – it ended spell effects on a target Cha Mod/Long Rest. It seems to be replaced with Restoring Touch (Use Lay on Hands HP Pool to end certain conditions on a target), but they didn't mention anything regarding it in the table.
I noticed...
Any idea if the relatively mystical ki-based features are gone?
Tongue of Sun and Moon, Timeless Body, Empty Body, Diamond Soul, Stillness of Mind, Purity of Body, etc?
They were removed in the playtest but aren't mentioned in the article.
Any ideas if Divine Health and Cleansing Touch are still gone or if they're unchanged because unmentioned?
Both were removed as of the most recent playtests, and are not mentioned here.
Thanks. Just checking, because the Paladin one doesn't mention a few of features that were removed in even the most recent UA Playtest, despite also saying that if it doesn't mention it it's not change (Divine Health, Cleaning Touch are the ones I'm thinking of).
Yes.
Unrelated: No mention of Arcane Recovery means it's still in, right? They would have mentioned it's axed in the article, per the notes about "if it's not mentioned, it's unchanged or virtually unchanged"?
How do people feel about homebrewing this new Sorcerer to cast with Mana Points, and conflate that with Sorcery Points for one larger pool used for both spellcasting and metamagic and other features? Would that break this version of the class' balance?
Has anyone figured out if Clerics are getting a bonus use per Rest of CD at 2nd level? The verbiage of the article says "2 uses of Channel Divinity just like in 2014", but in 2014 they only had 1 use at 2nd level in 2014. I'm ASSUMING what they actually mean is "2 ways to use Channel Divinity...
Hey at least it means you now get to know 3 9th level spells. I guess theoretically you could learn 7 different 9th level spells by choosing to learn 3 of them and retrain 4 of them, but with only one slot to use them on, it made very little sense to choose more than 1 9th-level spell. This...
I'm assuming they're sticking with the new Bard progression of "whenever you gain a new spell slot, you also gain a new spell prepared selection to put in said slot" – that was the UA6 progression.
This would mean 14 spells by 9th level, and the remaining 8 spells prepared can be of any of the...
Yeah, but I feel like Evocation Magic as the default kinda has to be there. Illusionist, Diviner, and Abjurer were chosen less because of their popularity and more because of how these archetypes fill niches not filled or less filled by other classes. We don't need Bladesinger in the book if...
Which MIGHT be why it's a preorder bonus and not a separate sale item: we might feel a bit of FOMO if we don't buy the bundle, but they don't lose out on printing if people distribute the tapes afterward.
Yes they did! I commented in that thread a big thank you to the community manager for confirming!
The page for the product changed on me during check out as well. But I'm glad I'm in the clear now and will get the digital book for my preorder. The whole mixed messaging really was confusing, and...
None of these are quite how my campaigns play out, even though I love a bunch of them. So I haven't voted yet.
Suggestions to add – The Last Unicorn, Flight of Dragons, Rankin/Bass LotR/Hobbit films, Jackson Hobbit series, and most important, almost every single Miyazaki/Ghibli film!
Okay. That's starting to get a bit Paladin but I can see Rangers with Paladin like philosophies, much like the Zealot Barbarian or conversely mirroring the Oath of the Ancients Paladin.
I guess my original point is that while Rangers and Druids tap into some of the same magic, the Ranger...
This happens in my line of government too. Politicians have agendas and they pull the rug out from under us and let people go even when they made a multi-year funding commitment. It's capitalism but it's also in government and it's everybody.
But it may not be that reason too. We don't know!
