[QUOTE="Helldritch, post: 8133317, member: 6855114"] Wow.... not being reprint does not mean bad. It has been printed. Bad, very bad assumption from your part. A new rule was supposed to be the flagship of the book and it got gutted. With all the "fanfare" and "firework" they put to say that it was a good rule, they removed it. Thwy were even promoting their new book with the assumption that rhis rule would be in it. There is only one conclusion. The rule was bad. Reaching any other conclusion is just plainly refusing the truth. Now, as I have said in many posts, the rule had some merits. It was the scope with which it was doing it that made it bad. Had it been once a month, a week or every seven long rest or whatever... but it was not how it was written. It was every single day. That is what made the rule so bad and unbalanced enough to warrant its removal from the book. Is it the only rule that I do not like in that book? Nope. There are a few of them. But I am honnest enough with mybself to admit that though I do not like them thematically and they are relatively not balanced enough to my tastes, that these rules are not game changing and can reach somekind of balance. It was not the case with spell versatility as it was written. Will they find a way to make it better? I sure hope so. Maybe they should ask the community what was their take/approach to help the sorcerer spell wise. I am certain that many here have good ideas that would satify game balance, niche and class flavors.
