[QUOTE="raleel, post: 7037070, member: 21664"] Nod, mostly spitballing ideas. As for a mount, the idea was that it is a utility, and not a new form of attack. Make it a magic saddle if you like :) I always liked the idea of the 4e wizard being able to ride his ooze mount ;) I think the important part really is that, instead of making bigger familiars (including my own thing about taking CR1 animals from the book) you just make the current familiar better in some way that is not overlapping with a current power set of familiars. That means no magic resistance addition, for example. Maybe no range extension, though maybe a small bump such that it is obviously not a replacement for voice of the chain master. No get an attack, because that steps right on pact of the chain. I could see gaining your familiars senses without blinding yourself. Or your familiar gains your proficiency bonus to saves and/or skill checks. [/QUOTE]
