[QUOTE="ro, post: 7259735, member: 6890747"] Someone else pointed out that Life Domain spells are excluded, likely knocking down real Cure Wounds and Bless numbers. Lots of this can be explained by new players. Consider that D&D Beyond targets those who don't already know the game, don't already have their own systems for managing their characters, don't already have a character sheet, and need help spinning up a character. The people who would know better are much less likely to use it. This is also why Human Fighters are so prevalent. Looking at Eldritch Blast, there is nothing in the 1st level of Warlock that suggests to a new player that Eldritch Blast is anything special. Warlocks don't get other damaging cantrips to compare it to, and 1st-level Warlocks don't know about Agonizing Blast. Nor do new players understand the power of adding Charisma to every beam. On top of that, many new players probably don't even know they are supposed to max Cha! And on Witch Bolt: it looks awesome when you are new to the game and don't know better. [/QUOTE]
