which also is why you need to keep Concentration until you release the energy, or the whole thing fails

one is not like the others…

no, all it says is that you cast it as normal, and the normal way to cast a spell with casting time action is to use the Magic action

but you cannot cast a spell (with casting time action) without using the Magic action…

the rules on Quicken say “When you cast a spell that has a casting time of 1 action, you can spend 2 sorcery points to change the casting time to 1 bonus action for this casting”. Since the casting time no longer is action, the Magic action is no longer required, instead the Sorcerer needs to...

no, this is what Ready says. You use up your spell slot even if your trigger never happens and need to concentrate to hold on to the spell effect for the reaction. Neither would be the case if you did not cast the spell on your turn. The Ready entry also says that you cast the spell the normal...

and I quoted the spellcasting rules which say it is required, not sure what to tell you ;)

by using the Magic action to cast it, which is the required action to cast spells (with casting time action), which is the normal way to cast spells Ready is not a proper action, it is a rider on top of a proper action that allows you to delay (part of) the proper action so you can use it as a...

actually that is exactly what normal means… you pick the action you want to perform as a reaction, and in case you chose Magic you perform it right then and there, but do not yet release the spell result. Ready is not an action that is being performed, ever… what does Readying an Attack look...

Ready uses the Magic action to cast spells, it makes you select the action you actually use, Ready itself is not a proper action, it being listed under actions does not change that. It does cause confusion however, which is why this thread is still going

and Magic is very clearly defined as required to cast spells with casting time ‘action’

yeah, all the ones with casting time ‘action’, see the exceptions, namely ‘but some spells require a Bonus Action, a Reaction, or 1 minute or more’ The exception is not Ready, it is based on the casting time. Otherwise it would say something about the spells with casting time action using the...

from the PHB “Most spells require the Magic action to cast, but some spells require a Bonus Action, a Reaction, or 1 minute or more. A spell’s Casting Time entry specifies which of those is required.”

take down and replace with nothing, definitely not. The assumption would be to take its position, not to just kill it, in which case they would then be the ones onboarding new players. That being said, anyone who creates a new TTRPG with the goal to unseat D&D… has highly unrealistic expectations

not that I am aware of, but they seem to tell us what the feedback the first time around was, and I am not sure they ever brought back as many subclasses a second time (outside of the 2024 UAs)

I replied to your reply to me, that is not cherry picking, it is having a conversation, so stop accusing me of it. I am not keeping track of everything you post and then pick the one post that is the most wrong on a given subject... this is getting ridiculous You are wrong with 6 weeks as well...

I have no idea, but since the Magic action is required to cast spells of the duration ‘action’ the two are basically synonymous anyway Guess @BenjaminPey has the right answer, these are not the actual spells but item specific features, just like all the others that use that term, it’s just that...

is that the ‘undermonetized’ thing? If so, that is not at all what it means. If not, what are you referring to?

I did not cherry pick, I quoted what you replied to me with. Also, 14 is more than 8, so you are still wrong even with your 6-8 range

you said within six weeks of each other and that is 8 weeks and just one of the two cases, for the other it is 14 weeks. So you are wrong, even if you had said 6-8
