UA Survey: Dragonmarks is up

[MechaTarrasque]

The survey can be found at: http://dnd.wizards.com/articles/unearthed-arcana/survey-dragonmarks

Take our latest Unearthed Arcana survey.
Last time, Unearthed Arcana explored how to make a character who bears a dragonmark, a mystic sigil that appears on the skin. Now is your chance to help shape their final forms!Now that you’ve had a chance to read and ponder these options, we’re ready for you to give us your feedback about them in the following survey. This survey will remain open for about three weeks.

This Is Playtest Content
The material in Unearthed Arcana is presented for playtesting and to spark your imagination. These game mechanics are in draft form, usable in your campaign but not refined by final game design and editing. They are not officially part of the game. For these reasons, material in this column is not legal in D&D Adventurers League events.

I responded.

They either need to tone down Making and Sentinel, or power up some of the other marks.

Also, Mark of Hospitality having access to Magnificent Mansion at 8th level (potentially) is absurdly powerful and would make my Bard player pout as she finally got access to it at 13th level and it eats up her 7th level spell slot.

The marks in no way are, or should be, equal. The powers of a halfling subrace are not strictly balanced with the powers of an elven subrace or a gnome subrace.

You have to compare a PC halfling with the Mark of a Hospitality to a Human with the Mark of Making. When you then compare the total abilities and powers of the PCs, they look a lot more balanced.

 

[Paul Farquhar]

I already addressed this. Comparing Halfling Mark of Hospitality with HALFLING Mark of Healing is in no way balanced.

Comparing human Mark of Making with human Mark of Handling is in no way balanced.
