[QUOTE="ren1999, post: 7658454, member: 85179"] O.k. I did not take the survey because I can't log in to Wizards. So I will give my thoughts and maybe one of you can pass those thoughts on if you agree. The Player's Handbook is very difficult to read. Especially the Class Features. A lot of the spells are never chosen by players because those spells are too weak. I have a solution for both problems. Here is what you do for the organization. The following is an example of the Clerics of Knowledge. My players can't even begin to understand their level-up rewards without a summary like this. A very brief shorthand summary is also needed. See the Spellcasting listing here for an example. All the spells too should have a brief summary. See Sacred Flame below. The solution for the spells is to eliminate the duplicate spells that do the same thing. The next thing, if you have Mage Hand, give it a scale, put the Bigby's spells in this and make it a Force Attack spell package. Do this for all spells like Create Water, and Darkvision. Put create water in with a Lightning Attack spell package. Put Darkvision and Breathe Water in with Wild Shape. 5E has a good game system. We can play it all the way to 20th level. But the class features and spells needs a clean up. Cantrips. @1st(3). @4th(4). []Guidance. []Light. []Mending. []Resistance.
