Message: <blockquote data-quote="Helldritch" data-source="post: 7984509" data-attributes="member: 6855114">What bothers the people here is not Hexing a chicken. It is doing it constantly by carrying quite a good number of them into adventuring. This is where logic dictates that something is wrong. I do concur with them.Once in a while, if you happen to find a chicken, a rat or whatever fine by me. Carrying a whole farm is not. As far as this shenanigan doubling the warlock's power... nope. Not really. Especially if the DM enforces the 6-8 encounters per day, taking a short rest immediately after a long rest is a losing proposition as an encounter this early would ensure quite a hard to deadly type encounter in my games. This would tax the players' ressources and would be none the wiser as the warlock might lose his concentration during that fight.In addition. This shenanigan will only benefits Warlocks of mid level and up when their slots are the equivalent of a third level spell. In my campaigns players of this level are starting to get reknown and are known throughout their area. You can bet that if the warlock is using this tactics (or any players is using the same shenanigan) over and over; it will be a known fact for any major foe they might have and they will act and prepare accordingly. A fireball from nowhere centered on the resting warlock will ensure a highly plausible loss of concentration and thus the warlock would start the day with one spell less from his arsenal. Doing this shenanigan over and over ensures that their foe will take advantage of this crutch of a habit. Players are intelligent. So are their foes.</blockquote>
