For what it is worth, I agree about the blasty psion of 3.5. I think it would be great if the sorcerer was given it's own spell list for each of it's sub-classes. They did this in the recent UA article. The two in PHB use the same one. Then the sorcerer/psion would have the feel of a...

There seems to be two, paths. One, add it to the current system as subclasses and two create a whole new class with unique mechanics. I think they can do both. To make people happy I think in an unearthed arcana article they can make psions a sorcerer subclass and psychic warrior a subclass of...

Unfortunately caster chart is not coming through. I will try and fix later.

3e House rules 2014 Actions The full round action is removed. All full round actions become standard actions. Charge, Withdraw, and Turn or Rebuke Undead actions are removed. 5' step is a move action. Run is a move action and allows you to move double speed (x1.5 in heavy armor) and take a -2...

Just have a reliable description. I agree with your point though, with billions if not trillions of locales it is like finding a needle in 1,000 haystacks. Though I think that they could look at a star and simply teleport there. Where there is may be entirely inhospitable though... in vacuum, in...

Rules additions: Radiation counts as fire damage but it deals 1d6 per minute. You can have higher levels that deal +1d6. To remove it you need to cast a restoration spell. Vacuum counts as 1d6 bludgeoning damage per round, and 1d6 cold damage per round. Partial vacuum as in a decompressing ship...

50 commoners to every lord. That is still very egalitarian and "fair". Who keeps the land barons, from making everyone destitute? Are there equality laws in the city? Who holds the keys to the judiciary? Is it corrupt? How do the various religions in the city vie for worshipers? Is it a high tax...

This would be an extremely egalitarian society at 3 to 1. I think you are looking more for at minimum 100 to 1, for extreme 1,000 to 1 or more. Think about demographics. Which clearly you do, based on your rarity charts. If this city was 1,000,000, an enormous sprawling city that arguably could...

Yes, also to make this explicit, each weapon group is a proficiency too. It works a little different than in 5e. You have a base skill (attack) and then proficiencies add to that skill (martial weapons). Armor is tied with athletics skill and so on. Though you need proficiency to use it...

I posted this buried in another thread and got only a few views and zero feedback. I thought I would post this here. I put a fair amount of work into this. Below is the origin of this and the thought processes behind this. So looking for, feedback, new ideas, additions, noted problems, what...

Good house rule.

I don't see an issue. Using Khaalis's suggestion: Swashbuckler (Fighter) Level 3 - Additional Fighting Style (Fighter Champion p73) Level 7 - Choose either: Evasion (Monk p181) OR Uncanny Dodge (Rogue p96) Level 10 - With Daring & Panache (Light Fighter Swashbuckler or Unearthed Arcana...

For the monk, I agree it is a pitfall for them. They need at least light armor proficiency to be competent. Though, perhaps just give it to them. Barbarians have armor proficiency and unarmed defense. If the Monk selects unarmed defense, then they simply do not use the light armor proficiency...

Perhaps make the unarmed defense a fighting style: Unarmored Defense: While wearing no armor, your AC equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Wisdom or Constitution Modifier. This would make the most sense to me. This makes the fighter automatically able to do the barbarian tough guy and the...

Can I see your first draft as a sub-class. That is more to my liking. Less classes more options in each class. Thanks,

If historical bards were historians, and gathered tales and recanted them so that human existence had a sense of place and history because of rampant illiteracy. I can see how commoners would be mesmerized by this and think that it was almost magical that they had such deep knowledge about their...

I was just offering my opinion. There are many opinions out there. One person's light fighter is another persons rogue. One person's rogue is not a light fighter. It boils down to game design choices. More classes for more niches or less classes with more niche possibilities.

Hmm, you could thematically call this beast a spirit beast and "summon" it, perhaps even as a free action. Then when it dies it goes back to the spirit world and you can summon it again. Similar to a totem warrior thematically. I think more where you were going though was by making the beast...

I think the rogue is the same design space as a light fighter. This fighter type does not need to be teased out. I can see a mix of backgrounds and a few new rogue sub-classes and you have a light fighter. I think the mariner fighting style is fine. For the swashbuckler, it would have been neat...

The spell DC is that. But 10+prof without adding the stat fixes the "DC too high to save problem" high level 5e has. To add a little more: The DC range would be 12 - 16 instead of the potential 15 - 19 The problem is DC is scaling while most saves do not. So targeting a bad stat (with a stat...
