[QUOTE="Ashrym, post: 8050571, member: 6750235"] It's because hex concentration is lost to checks OR given up to casting another concentration spell. A baseline should be typical and hex is atypical, especially as more concentration options become available and more powerful/versatile opponents are encountered. It's an unreasonable assumption on how the spell slots get used. The high focused optimization wasn't with that baseline. It's with the other class builds used to beat that baseline. It's also a baseline for warlocks instead of classes in general. Straight forward PHB no feats or multi-classing for each class would help set a better baseline. Lol, TBF, AC comes into play a lot more often than poison immunity. However, something not really touched on is monks saving party resources with immunities and saving throws (later). It is a good ability and worth the ki cost. Best part of the flick. :-D And yet the 5mwd is such a common concept? This one of the reasons hex should not be a base assumption. Nope, can't see the hat as better either lol. More like a spell becoming outdated. Spells can be swapped, however. It would be nice to have alernative choices to select from a list for ki powers. On the fly is the actual advantage here. That's something that might have been overestimated in power. The relevance and is in the other class builds beating that baseline. EB+AG isn't a bad baseline without hex if other classes are following the same PHB options. [/QUOTE]
