[QUOTE="Blue, post: 8870302, member: 20564"] I am a bit leery because of how important action economy is in 5e. Being able to get off, for example, a low level buff/debuff as well as a concentration-less spell is quite powerful. Spending an action on Bless is one of it's balance points, doing that and also any spell but your most powerful is quite good. It also combines two of a caster's mid to low level slots which aren't all that impressive at the higher levels into the action economy of a single spell, which can be. Certain classes being able to spend their resources quicker will lead to even more push for 5 minute working days, so I'd want to see something like "can not have can any spells the round previous". Would we give a fighter an extra set of attacks as long as they didn't use a fighting style on any of them? The argument "it's not using any resources" is actually an arguement the other way, since resource-bound features already do more per action than at-will action, so it's doubling down on coolness and letting the steady-output people have nothing extra. Now, this would be an interesting way that Sorcerers could break the normal rules of magic. Heck, even if it's just take out the limitation on spells when casting a bonus action spell - certain casters can heal and cast, and sorcerers can quicken plus cast something else. [/QUOTE]
