[QUOTE="Blackbird71, post: 6593599, member: 6794081"] So it sounds like there are other mechanics in place to help mitigate some of these extremes; that is good to know, thanks. Very good news! I had thought I had seen Arcane Trickster mentioned as a casting Rogue variant? Also good to know; some of what I had read gave the impression that there were generally more magical subclasses than non-magical. That is reassuring; I wasn't clear as to whether advantage could be given to opposing parties simultaneously, or if one had advantage, it automatically meant that their opponent had disadvantage. As I mentioned in my response to pukuuni, those "finicky +/- bonuses" never had the result of making critical successes more difficult to reach. There was always that 1/20 chance. I appreciate the streamlining and simplicity, but have to wonder if it could have been done in a way that didn't create this cost. A lot of helpful responses in such a short time; thanks for all the feedback so far! [/QUOTE]
