It'd at least be better than casting a cantrip every round. Which the current form ... isn't.

No.

And in so many parties with both a Paladin and Cleric, once the Cleric hits Lv. 5 and gets Spirit Guardians, the Paladin takes over Bless duty.

Yeah ... Bless should be as far away from any cruddy spells list as humanly possible. Most of the complaints I see about it is that it's OP. (I don't think it's OP, but it's definitely not weak and is well worth your concentration.) And Aid is also a staple that I happen to think is good at a...

Unfortunately, it's also a bit of a nerf in that it has no effect on enemies immune to the poisoned condition. Which is a fairly common immunity.

Taking all factors into account (i.e. general crappiness, level of the spell, mechanics of said spell, comparisons to spells with similar functions, etc.), Mordenkainen's Sword definitely takes the title. Immolation is a notable dishonorable mention.

OK, gotcha. But with that said, between Mage Armor, Shield, False Life, and Mirror Image, even low-level Wizards in 3.5 are doing quite well defensively.

Sword Coast Legends did not exist, AFAIC.

So as long as spellcasters intentionally play or build their characters in a suboptimal manner, the system works? Surely you don't see the inherent problem with that?

I would never play this game, and I would encourage everyone I know to boycott it.

This UA is clearly an indicator that they may be running out of ideas.

I'm having fun with my Moon Druid at the moment. He's, of course, hilariously overpowered, just like he is in tabletop D&D from levels 1-4 (which are also the levels BG3 Early Access happen to cover).

The problem with it, even when you do set it up, is simple math: Just a typical situation off the top of my head, you may get a 60% chance to hide, 84% chance to hit (advantage accounted for), 60% chance to win initiative: .6*.84*.6 = .3024 So you do everything right, and you'll still get...

I want to say there was in some early versions of it, but it got changed to -10 to initiative later on? Regardless, -10 to initiative for surprise would still have put the Assassin in a much better place than it is now. Point was the Assassin gets nothing to compensate for surprised enemies...

The major problem with Assassinate, the surprise part of it, especially, is that it carried over from earlier playtest versions of 5e where there actually was such a thing as a surprise round. So now, in actual 5e, you're stuck with an Assassin who has to succeed at stealth AND the attack roll...

It was OK when there were fewer supplements, but now that you have Xanathar's AND Tasha's, it was time for it to go.

So that Scribe guy (who blocked me here lol) started a thread on the Larian forums encouraging other fellow malcontents to review-bomb Baldur's Gate 3 on Steam. Yeah, if it wasn't obvious before that he wasn't acting in good faith, it sure is now.

I think that's kinda the whole idea.

You've sure posted a lot on a thread of a game you believe sucks. It's some real Steam-forum syndrome.
