Man I really wish some of those these had gotten fleshed out. Souragne, Nova Vaasa, Invidia and G'henna all deserved some time in the moon...

I hear Invidia is dominating FPS (fights per scenario) in other domains.

 

[Hexmage-EN]

Yeah, based on what I have heard I can't see myself picking this up when I already have VRGtR.

But if you didn't own VGR, the new book is quite clearly a much superior product. (we know VGR was affected by covid amongst other things).

Seconded. Especially second skin. Did they make that worth taking?

Second Skin is changed. It’s Alter Self ability is now just the spell, and doesn’t lock you into a specific second persona. Its involuntary change is still there, but now it stuns you if you’re already changed because of the catalyst.

Overall the Dark Gifts are largely similar but either streamlined or pulled back to be more in love with a level 1 feat from my first skim through.

Hmmm. Better, not great. I was hoping to use it to swap between a human and hybrid appearance for lupin, but it looks like it's only for an hour and only as concentration.

The book is on Beyond for Master Tier. Looking at it now.

Did you buy just the book or the bundle? The Marketplace page says I own it, but I can't access it at the moment, despite having just renewed my Master Tier subscription a few weeks ago.

Hazlik is a buffed Legendary Archmage, who also has Wild Magic powers (that get more notable once he is bloodied)

Early access is a subscription benefit and not linked to bundles. I only bought the digital book, not a bundle.

How are you trying to access it? What do you see if you click this link?

I should add that once per day you can cast Alter Self without a spell slot or concentration. Still only an hour though.

I bought the physical and digital bundle. But not the big bundle with the deck and everything.
