DnD is supposed to be a game full of infinite possibility and then you design a monster with an affliction that has a SINGLE SOLUTION?! I'm sorry but that's not only bad design, it's a STUPID design.I'm not even asking for an instantaneous cure. I don't mind that the Paladin can't just go take an hour long nap and be fine... but give me some damn outs! What even IS that effect? Is it a curse? Is it a disease? Is it a spell that can be dispelled? No, it's just... is?Have you ever seen a 4e disease track? That stuff would have worked wonder for that kind of condition, and the disease track interacted ith more than just one single friggin' spell! You know who learns Greater Restoration: Bard, Druid, Cleric and Celestial Warlock. Bard and Warlock don't get to just sleep and switch spells, so if they don't think it's that useful because the kind of condition it's designed to counter doesn't happen often, you could just be without that spell completely if your party doesn't include a Druid or Cleric capable of casting 5th level spells. The condition itself is honestly pretty lame, as it basically punished a tank for tanking. IMO it feels designed by a mean spirited DM who was tired his melee types were getting too cool for non-casters.</blockquote>
