[QUOTE="Quartz, post: 8109079, member: 40552"] I've had a quick read and this caught my eye: The more I think about this, the more I dislike it. 6th level spells are big guns and high level druids have many uses of Wild Shape. You're effectively giving them several extra 6th level spell slots. You might want to cap it at 5th level, not 6th; maybe even 4th level. And no more than the character's Proficiency Bonus. Compare an 11th level Druid who converts all her Wild Shape uses with an 11th level Cleric. I would also suggest making it explicitly a Druid spell slot of 5th level or lower, to prevent multiclassing cheese. Something like, "After you cast a Druid spell of 1st to 3rd level, as a Bonus Action you may expend one use of your Wild Shape feature to recover the spell slot. After you cast a Druid spell of 4th or 5th level, as a Bonus Action you may expend two uses of your Wild Shape feature to recover the spell slot. When you use this feature you may not use it again until you have finished a Short or Long Rest." Maybe even sacrifice 3 uses for a 5th level slot. I think Ley Line Awareness is very cool and you should expand on it. Dig out your copy of Shadow World and look up the Flows of Essence. For example, perhaps a Druid's party moves faster when travelling along a ley line. Or spells can get metamagicked or heightened when cast at the crossing of two or more ley lines. [/QUOTE]
