Message: <blockquote data-quote="Warpiglet-7" data-source="post: 8117264" data-attributes="member: 7025282">I want my cleric to have multi attack.  I just like the imagery.  It does not shaft the fighter; he keeps it.  And I don’t have to compromise.that is more extreme but the point is yes, some constraints are there for a purpose and sometimes what we prefer may butt up against a constraint. But it also helps define things too. If I give multiattack to a life cleric, where does the war domain cleric sit?it’s just all subtle preference honestly. The argument is not about promoting fun vs. constraint.I would also say it would be unusual for me to really really think firbolgs are cool right up until I see they do not get a dex bonus.  Firbolg are wise “in tune” beings who are big...and stronger than the average 5’9” elf or whatever.as I think about it, we are really advocating for what might amount to a +1 weapon or something. Neither preference for or against is going to break the game but for those less inclined to go with the new option, the changes may change the archetypes over time.I am less entrenched than I was in that direction (if the typical creature is still listed as having that inclination).  but that is the issue.  No one is wanting to wreck someone else’s fun (I would assume).  It is as silly to assume one direction as another (e.g. people that want floating bonuses are hoping to rain on the traditionalist’s parade).my concern is more about “what’s next?” At this point.  When will it be taboo to say halfling are generally quick or good at thieving?  I mean my Lord, we would not want to do that and make people believe certain real world humans are more inclined to stealing!  Or when will it be taboo to say orcs tend to be strong because we are afraid we are perpetuating some weird historical ideas about eugenics?focus on good design. I see some hits and misses with Tasha’s. Oh well. The die is cast.</blockquote>
