    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    Don't be ridiculous. I am far superior to a sock-puppet. I would clearly be a Jim Henson-level animatronic. As for repeated statements, that is no surprise. As we are all confined to forums and communities, when something seems off, humans in that state are reduced to the inability to change...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    They made smite work with any spell slot? Huh. That is both awkward and sensible. It was a huge restriction on paladins that they could not multiclass into other casters without losing smite chances. Then again, this also means you can now build a level 2 paladin half-elf/elf that moves over...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    Actually, the sculpt spell = Careful spell is a bit of a fallacy. Sculpt spells works only on evocation spells, and it's ability is to ignore 1+spell level amount of allies in the aoe to make the spell ignore them. Automatic success and no half damge. Careful Spell works on ANY spell with a...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    Now you are asking the real questions, and a damn good one too. In this case, you have to remember that the spell slot and metamagic was so heavily balanced away from spell slot creation that anything that was not metamagic, felt like a waste. Ergo, to begin with, there was no real balance...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    Due to the nature of the sorcerer spell, list. It goes even deeper. The sorcerer list lacks some of the best spells that are not merely damage. Or the wizard spells that avoid saving throws, or have multiple uses. It is rather barren in comparison. - As I quoted in the original post, the players...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    That is really the only reason as to why there is currently a level limit in this rebalance for how many spell slots in value you can generate per day. So it will balance out against arcane recovery, and make dumping a slot or two give that extra sorcery point. Which might seem minor. But over...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    Indeed, this was basically the entire reason for making a flexible casting economy where you actually CAN cast more spells. And get a decent amount of metamagic for sacrificing one of your medium level spells. The challenge is not breaking anything. However, in this case I have the benefit that...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    Well, yes. They basically have no need for this, as for the few spells they know, they can just cast it through force of personality and inbound power at any point, if they have the energy to spare. The ritual caster feat comes with a spellbook specifically for rituals, which is written in the...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    This has a bit of merit. I just looked up the available cast times for sorcerer in the handbook and elemental evil. Sorcerers have access to the following spells with long cast time. Mending: 1 minute Clairvoyance: 3rd, 10 minutes. Creation: 5th, 1 minute Teleportation circle 5th, 1 minute...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    Sorry about that. I am rather stuck in the mindset of thinking of pathfinder sorcerers as a 'past edition.' - Not to mention ending up thinking of 3rd and 3.5 as different. I did look over the economy and changed level 5 spells to a cost of 7 points. Making it a scale that jumps one point after...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    Very few indeed. Most of the spell selection available by WotC from the start seem to have been placed around the 'blaster' archetype they placed sorcerer in. With very few spells that do not deal direct damage, or controls the battlefield. For instance, a sorcerer so powerful that by sheer...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    In this case. I was referring to how in past editions, sorcerers and wizards have traditionally shared the same spell list. A tradition that even carried over to pathfinder. As such, I felt it rather returned the feel of the class as how we used to know it. The caster so full with magic that...

    D&D 5E Sorcerer Rebalance, Through Flexible Casting And Wizard Spells

    Greetings everyone. I have been enjoying 5e since it came out and had the pleasure of both being a player and a DM over the turn. And through the part, I have been noticing basic aspects of the 5e sorcerer that limits them in ways that has not been present in older editions. In particular, the...
