[QUOTE="SongOfSisyphus, post: 8957732, member: 7040588"] So in a similar vein to my quest to port third party classes, I figured it'd probably be useful for me to start work on a community Spell compilation based on all the WotC spells that either haven't yet made it into A5E or got dropped due to design changes. Here's a document that will likely communicate general progress on my approach to the data: [MEDIA=googlesheets]1G8z3XAdXbyk-JFclTh7Glvdx_LNCdDAjLHUbkgFrXgI[/MEDIA] Purpose of this is mainly just to bring already-published spells up to the new design standards that A5E champions, particularly with regards to spells. However, we will absolutely be making changes to spells that are either too bad or too good to fit into this new paradigm. So along with the opening post, I ask you all the question: Are there any spells already published by WotC that could do with a balance pass? Even spells already published under A5E that seem like they could do with a little more tweaking are fair game here. I can tell from the outset that in particular I'm going to have to think long and hard about the smite spells (on account of the regular smite mechanic having been changed up in A5E, making the design of the old smite spells pretty inapplicable) and the former ranger spells, if those are to be re-added. The plan, once I'm done filling out this spreadsheet, is to make another homebrewery document entitled A5E - Community Spell Conversion Project (or A5E - CSCP for short) compiling all the relevant meta-tags and changes made to these spells.
