Why not! I would not play a caster with your house rule, but you are free to try it with your players.

5Ed already have the Mage Slayer Feat. A DM can give this feature to some monsters type like Fiend. To interrupt we need another Feat, The Mage killer feat. Almost the same except that the attack in reaction can interrupt the spell. The hit can ask a concentration check to complete the spell...

For me I got enough options for my characters and don’t need to add more with numerous magic items. 2024 Ed will add more options so I would need even less magic items. I never heard a comment or a requirement about encumbrance and carrying capacity in 10 years of playing 5ed. There are rules...

5.5 party will be more solid than 5.0 But still they will have limited ressource, hit points, to hit bonus. A 5.5 should be able to do some additional encounters but not that much.

Cloud of dagger is sure to affect someone in the cloud. The Conjure elemental is quite vague. It don’t ask an unoccupied square, so you can place it on an enemy? it require to Move within 5 feet to trigger the effect. Does moving into the spirit count? In all case an enemy not moving won’t be...

But with Conjure elemental there is no indication on how to move or relocate the spirit.

The worst seem the Conjure elemental. You just bring a powerful elemental spirit, then nothing. You have to wait that an enemy move closer. You can’t move the spirit, and if the fight shift place your spirit is stuck there. They really don’t want we use this spell!

I just dislike all those mechanic that take effect at start of the turn, or when you enter in the aura. I would prefer that they resolve this at the casting moment and later on the caster turn.

The DM guide let the DM choose how to use dice in his game. He can manage social and exploration encounter with few or no dice. And in fact skills and abilities mean much less that way. The big question is Why a DM ask for a roll? To challenge players? To bug them? To add some randomness in the...
