Congratulations to the Circle of the Land,
Woopsie daisy! Sorry, I hadn't had my coffee yet.I think you mean Shepherd?
Probably wishful thinking.I think you mean Shepherd?
Nope, just half-asleep. I honestly expected Shepherd to win once Stars got eliminated. (I've seen enough of these to know what happens when two underdogs split against a leader.)Probably wishful thinking.
DM: "What are you guys playing?"
Player 1: "I'm going to be an Conjurer!"
Player 2: "I'm going to be a Battle Master!"
Player 3: "I'm going to be a Paladin of Vengeance!"
Player 4: "I'm going to be a Shepherd. Baaaaa!"
I 100% agree with you on the annoying/slowing down the game part.It wouldn't be Sheperd. It's cliched and annoying at the same time. Summons slow down combat and are ineffective for anything apart from getting in the way.
If the DM lets the PC pick what they summon, it's TOO goodI 100% agree with you on the annoying/slowing down the game part.
however I can't believe what you are saying about ineffective. I ran a module with a PC with a Shepherd, it was very effective.
I really like the Spirit thing, especially the Bear for the Temp HP, and the free 'talk to animal' effect.Shepard is alright.
It's similar to the Shaman from 4E.
