[QUOTE="TwoSix, post: 8233404, member: 205"] Interesting. I think the overall skeleton is sound, it's a warlock base, but with Eldritch Blast's and the invocations' power budget shunted into the subclasses (which seem stronger, generally, than Warlock's) and the vestiges. I like the overall idea of vestiges, they're presented in the fiction as almost like found magic items, which is cool. I think giving them a distinct niche from warlock invocations is difficult since their number scales identically with warlock invocations; I wonder if giving less overall but making each of them stronger and more distinct would give them a unique role. Have a couple of useful low-level vestiges available to everyone, and then more specific Implement-related vestiges and and maybe a subclass-related vestige at higher levels. Goetic Evocation seems to be covering a lot of ground (supporting a menu of 5 options is a lot of work for one subclass), I think establishing an overall subclass power level with some more focused subclasses might make future divine work easier. Some of the Goetic Evocation options (fey, especially) are begging for their own focused subclass, especially since so many of the vestiges already done are fey-inspired. [/QUOTE]
