[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 9469160, member: 48965"] No it doesnt... it says if you want to skip the narrative of a Warlock solidifying their deal and knowledge of their patron start at 3rd level. 2024 aligns this with the tiers and standardizes this across all classes which is both good game design and narratively cohesive.⁹ The exception is to start at 3rd level. Simple and elegant. Also your assertion that all Warlocks are identical is factually incorrect. You are choosing the spells you have access to... unless you are claiming that every Warlock in every game has to choose the exact same spells at level 1... are you? This isn't a current thing... Yes and if you want to be Wyll Start at 3rd level... you like that narrative, I get it and 5e gives you a way to start with it. So you want everyone shoehorned into one identity? Otherwise you are admitting their are others... why shouldn't they be playable along with the one you prefer? Didn't say it was... but the fact that you can begin the game with an air of mystery around your patron and later discover who or what it is... thats what 2024 had provided. When was this setting published...regardless it's not core so it may be an option in the future... so what ignore it if you don't like it and don't use it for your character if you don't like it... but if others want or use it why does that affect you? And yet they are all different mechanically ... good game design. It is when that obfuscation opens up numerous other play opportunities that didn't exist previously. Huh? It should be default because what now?? Again no it opens up new narratives overall for the class. No. The tempter and corrupted archetype Patrons who work from the shadows and offer a taste of power to seduce you is not served by this at all... you're trying to narrow the archetype to fit what you prefer Nah they didn't really mess them up, they have more ans more different flavor than previously.
