CRAFTING has RULES. THE ARTIFICER HAS A REASON TO EXIST. YES. now, honestly, i find the a5e artificer kind of subpar, but, i mean, hey, it still fits in better then the o5e artificer did.strongholds. magic item prices. yesss. let me spend my DOSH.maneuvers make martials much more interesting. don't know how i feel about some feat and class features being rolled into them, but, uh, hey, whatever.</blockquote>
