don't shifters function as a bit of a catch all anthro species? edit, eh, just read their description, it's a bit of a stretch, but i feel it would be easy for wizards to tweak their description to fit that role better.

i wouldn't see dragonborn as mutant kobolds or anything, but i can very much see them as very closely related species, enough to form a fully intermixed society between the two.

do we need a new thread for that? would it not merely continue this same conversation in a different place?

i would say all rangers should have it, it is a hard claim to make that the the animal companion is not one of the strongest threads in their cloth and i'd say the spell embodies something not exclusive to the spellcasting ranger and so should not be limited to them, it lets you play into that...

i think the throughline was if your pact is a part of the fiction then you're going to interact with your patron, if you interact with your patron surely at some point they're going to want something from you given this is supposedly why patrons would create warlocks in the first place, and if...

oh sure, i mean i was pretty certain someone would have done that at some point, but i just meant if taken in parallel, trying to overlap the poll participants as much as possible, how would they compare.

i would've been curious to see how the results of this poll compare taken against one for the nine 5e14 options, see how the different lineups and mechanical designs of each ranked against each other.

and you still can have characters who hit things with a sword, but there will likely be situations you may encounter, a flying enemy perhaps, something across a ravine, or when restrained in place, where all the movement in the world won't help you reach that target and the melee STR character...

while i'm fine with dropping them being exclusive think i would rather languages moved to being things more like Thieves Cant, to represent more of a knowledge of the vocabulary and implications of expected etiquette of a social sphere(so if you know Highspeech you also know how to act in high...

paladin's oath maybe somewhat to a lesser degree given their powers are supposedly directly derived from their conviction, it;s still something i think is possible to handwave as a negligible lapse in the grander scale, but the others i don't think so not really. you're again assuming that the...

and? i don't have to have a supernatural ball and chain tied to my character if i pick any of the other classes so why should i be made to have one if i want to play a warlock?

see, i'd say you're making assumptions about what form a 'pact' needs take, that there are always concrete terms stipulated and agreed to, the initial pact needn't be an obvious transaction, a warlock-to-be could perform an ritual for power that's light on the specific results, carrying around...

i certainly agree with this principle (though our preferred executions may or may not differ), but more martial movement doesn't need to be at odds with better ranged STR options.

if i had my way with the armour system here's a post i've made before on what i'd do with it

what i wouldn't give for a few lines of text that say something to the effect of: with these changes your best STR options are probably javelin for range and trident for damage, let's compare them to what look like their closest ranged DEX-equivalents. WeaponDamageRangePropertiesMastery...

tangential thought, i think it's way past time DnD got past the rut that all heavy armour gets stealth disadvantage, heavy armour isn't so significantly better than medium just cause the highest AC you can get is better by 1 that all it's options needs that millstone, despite the natural...

if you don't want a healer to be an essential role in the party maybe stop resorting to lethal combat as your solution to all your interpersonal conflicts ;)

by being too close to be an objective evaluator.

you may have misinterpreted my meaning, i agree with what you say here, that being merely nice doesn't make you Good, but i think alot of people want to think that it does because they want to think of their characters as 'heroes' and heroes are 'good people' so they look for reasons to justify...
