[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8233570, member: 6704184"] If you won’t actually engage with my replies, further communication is probably not going to be fruitful. The rough draft of subclasses aren’t balanced yet. I know. I literally said they haven’t been balanced yet. 🤷♂️ I disagree that it’s a superior caster. Because that’s kludgy and what proficiencies you get should be simple. It again seems like you didn’t actually read what I wrote, and are instead just looking for an argument. Did you not read any of the several times I made it explicitly clear this is a rough draft. Getting hung up on wording rather than engaging with concept is the opposite of helpful. It is explicitly checks and saves to get out of being controlled. And again, yes I know the wording isn’t finished. I said that in the OP. The point is that you can use chill touch in melee, or booming blade with a thrown weapon. No, it clearly doesn’t work, because you still think the idea is that it requires attunement, which I’ve said it doesn’t. You just have to choose which implement you are using, and thus benefiting from. Haven’t decided when you can change implements yet. Thematically it could be like switching weapons, but in game terms it’s probably better if it takes a bit longer. Right, because Binders are prepared casters. They can still only prepare and cast 1 spell of that level. Why would it be restricted to ritual casting? No, it isn’t. You’d have to see the stat block to even guess if it’s broken, but it sure as hell isn’t. It’s Find Familiar with the ability to upcast, and make the familiar bigger when you do so. [/QUOTE]
