    Pacifist wizard: help me never deal damage.

    I want to play a Wizard who never deals any damage. The game is unlikely to get beyond 4th or 5th level. I've settled on Gnome. I like illusion spells and creativity, and beyond that I'm open to any and all suggestions for spell selection, school selection, and tactics. My big question is what...

    Building a Bladelock for Cursebringer UA

    I have a player who wants to be a Tiefling with a big 2 handed weapon. Looking through some UA, I found the Abyssal Tiefling which has more useful stats (+2 Cha, +1 Con), and also this invocation in the Warlock and Wizard UA: Cursebringer (a warlock invocation) "You can create a greatsword...
