Message: <blockquote data-quote="KarinsDad" data-source="post: 1235553" data-attributes="member: 2011">Sorcerers and Bards do not use material components in my campaign with the exception of expensive material components (although that does not make a lot of sense, I prefer it over XP).To balance it out, I allow other spell casters to "swap" a current spell in a spell slot for an equal or lower level spell with a DC 20 + spell level (of spell slot) Concentration roll. This requires an action that takes an entire round to perform and which can be disrupted by things that would disrupt casting a one round spell (e.g. damage would require a second concentration roll, etc.).So far, out of about 40 gaming hours and 3 attempts to swap a spell by PCs (level 4 at the moment), only 1 spell was successfully swapped (one higher level NPC also swapped out a spell successfully). So, I have not found it to be abusive yet.</blockquote>
