[QUOTE="TheSword, post: 8137015, member: 6879661"] Feats at 1st level for Vhumans and Vraces from Tasha is now very much a part of a landscape. I always find this Uber-optimizations language where every single element is costed and valued to squeeze the greatest utility out of element is troubling. Mainly because most people don’t see it that way. However, for the record a halberd at d10 is less than half the cost of a great sword and does 1 1/2 point of damage less on average. 1 1/2 points now superseded by the 2d8 you’ve forced them to take, or be left with their arse in their hand. Hey I have this amazing cantrip you can use. It’s great it does 3d8 at level 5, more damage than other spells and allows you to make an attack with all the bonus damage from your weapon attacks... Yeah but I have to take a cantrip to use that... yes but you get 4 cantrips... yeah but I’d rather take Mage hand and pull levers. Look I get that you feel burned by the change to the spell. But suggesting the cost of the combo was unreasonable is just not tenable. Particularly when the two biggest costs - Warmage and Polarm master are a given for spell casting fighters and those using halberds respectively even without this combo and come with their other benefits.
