In the end it comes down how warlocks work in your setting and/or warlock-patron relationship. Personally i hate the idea of warlocks access to magic being too strongly tied to patrons, too many people tend to treat them as sort of arcane cleric, but this shouldn't be the class power. Warlocks...

I feel that the class needs some adjustment and that it shouldn't come from adding more spells known, but rather by improving subclass options, metamagic, sorcery points and adding more sorcerer-only spells, the latter being perhaps more flexible than spells for other classes, but in the end the...

Actually already 2 is pretty bad, because it halves your speed. Fast movement might help a bit, but IMHO not enough. Depending on DM/adventure/group the disadvantage on ability checks can become really cumbersome. Have a bit more ability check rich environment and it can become an issue...

I think this has finally vanished, but for a long time a lot of people (among them people creating classes and warlock patrons on DMs guild) assumed that warlock patron spells work like domain/land/oath spells, instead of just beinga dditional spell options to choose from.

Although i haven't had any barbarians in my games, i have felt that making the frenzy cost an additional use of rage is probably the simplest and best solution to fix the issue. At level 3 it pretty much means that you can only get one frenzy per day, evolving in the end into 3 frenzies per day...

@ Tuxego Thank you for clarifying your actual issue with the divine magic feature in your second post. In the context of your first post, your statement about divine magic feature seemed misleading. Still, i don't see why you have a issue with a favored soul sorcerer only deciding to take...

Um you are getting something very wrong, either by misreading or not reading the whole description. Both fav sorcerer 2 and 3 allow you choose if you take a cleric spell or sorcerer spell Here is the description of divine magic: When your Spellcasting feature lets you learn a sorcerer cantrip...

I'm actually torn between 2nd and 3rd. I like the celestial beauty and purity aspect, but on the other hand i enjoy the healing options offered by the subclass, giving it perhaps a mechanically bit more clearly defined role than just sorcerer with divine spells and lets be honest... healing is...

Edit: Accidental double post

To be honest shoehorning a "divine sorcerer" class into the game would a lot worse. The original was nothing but a poor attempt to add an option to people who wanted to play a cleric like character, but didn't like spell preparation. And really there is no real room for such a class in the...

I picked spellcasting, but would have liked if there would have been an option of spellcasting and shapeshifting. For me druid is a wielder of nature magic that has evolved to be a wider concept than just a celtic priest, encompassing a lot of similar pagan, animistic or shamanistic concepts and...

I allow PHB, EEPC, SCAG, Volo and have a list of stuff allowed from UA and DM's Guild. Outside the list, well i'm open to some ideas and additions, like i haven't added Mercer's Blood Hunter class to the list or the latest UA Mystic, but i would allow them if somebody would be interested. On the...

Leaving all the human variant variant jokes aside i feel that combining variant human and the human determination feat actually make a pretty decent house ruled human race (+3 to freely chosen stats, extra skill and the determination ability) if you want a bit more interesting human race than...

Well... I like them a lot, a few of them could use a bit of adjustment. They add the nice element of some members of a race having rare talents, training, mutations or bloodline stuff that allows them to unlock abilities uncommon among their race. And i like that they are an option to add back...

I tend to run my own settings so what races and classes are allowed depend on setting/campaign/one-shot. Some races and classes have their fluff and background changed. In some cases i take a race or class and alter it to fit it, like having drow stats for shadow or dark elves, but no use of the...

Points of Light also known as Nentir Vale, the sort of semi-setting implied in 4e materials.

When compared to the PW:K it has the added benefit of getting rid of the body in a way that depending the circumstances might be harder to recover than of a disintegrate victim. 60 hp limit probably. Not sure about the level. I would probably make "just a" Liquefy spell that is a disintegrate...

I think a spellcaster with access to 3rd level spells can work well, you just have to start thinking what spells that sorcerer NPC uses. Fireball is one of the best picks for a sorcerer PC, but probably not for this encounter. One possibility is to keep his third level spell(s) choice purely...

I don't see problems with hypnotic pattern, it prevents affected creatures from taking moving, taking actions or reactions, but isn't full unconsciousness, so no advantage on attacks or auto crits. Also any damage taken ends the spell for affected creature. So its an highly effective crowd...

Well when it comes to capturing NPCs, very few of them of them actually have the class abilities of PC wizards. Volo's guide breaks it a bit, but even there the specialist wizard options have one arcane tradition ability and from them only the conjurer one is the only really problematic one. So...
