But there was the seed of an idea in there - generic statblocks with selectable abilities. What would the community response have been to that? Who knows? WotC sure doesn't. The response wasn't to the balancing, it was that the version of wild shape we were presented with conceptually just doesn't work.Hex is another good example. Hex as a part of Pact Magic would have been fine. But anyone who's playtested only has this half-assed Hex as a part of half-casting to respond to. The Hex we have conceptually doesn't work in the context it's presented. Not weak, simply not working.</blockquote>
