DnD. Serious Business.

Damn...Warlocks can use Int, Wis, or Cha for casting stat. Each Pact Boon gives you the option of 2 out of the 3.

This, I VERY much like. I’ve been wanting it for ages. Now do the same for the sorcerer and cleric.

I’d like it more if I could pick Int or Cha regardless of pact boon.

I’d like it more if I could pick Int or Cha regardless of pact boon.

Me too, to be fair.

I'd allow it, it's more like a guideline anyway!

 

[OldSchoolGamerGirl]

I’d like it more if I could pick Int or Cha regardless of pact boon.

I would like it even MORE if it was Con Int Wis or Cha

Reminds me of the Goliath Star Pact Warlock I never got to play in 4e…

I should take another pass at the Stars Patron for 5e I wrote for my wife….

Something that I've felt since early on in 5e, is that the fighter should get their 4th attack at 17th level, keeping pace with cantrip upgrades. It's closer now since they get it at 18th, but I'd probably swap that 4th attack with unconquerable.
