The cards are a little messed up but other than that looks like it's all there.
Neat nugget of history.
I thought that maybe classes would retain their short rest recharges but none of the material released this year has shot rest recharges (or I missed it). Perhaps all class abilities will be reworked to be this way as well.
I also really hope Warlock gets to remain unique in it how it's spells...
Drake Warden is intriguing. (Depending on how you rule some interactions with later level features) it's a nice variation on the Beast Master w Tasha's Primal Companion. At later levels, it has much better damage spikes but the Primal Companion seems like it would have more consistency and...
I don't like Divine Smite being limited by proficiency and I don't like how the damage is. It's less uses per day and less damage? Oof. At the same time, I really like the improvement stuff you get to add later on.
Still, I'd totally play this class as is and not be unhappy.
This is the least happy I've been with the playtests so far. There's good ideas in there but the EB stuff feels clunky to me. Moving some Invos to knacks is nice. Spell points feel wrong. On EB as you've got it, I'd give some range to Scythe beyond melee reach, 20-30', maybe. The way I'm reading...
Rearing Menace - are the chosen creatures frightened of you, your mount, or both? If you dismount while this is active, do they remain frightened of you/horse/both? I realize this is a bit of a corner case as it's only for a turn (outside of possible abilities that extend effects of maneuvers)...
That doesn't explain them inserting "primitive" in the adventure when the author never used that word, it doesn't explain them removing backstory context to the degree that the writer says they did. They seemed to have removed all of the culture from the frog-people in the adventure, removed...
I don't get the cook. The Inexperienced benefit seems like it's better than the Expert benefit to me, because as written, it doesn't appear to use any of your own resources, where the Expert seems to just help you get your own limited resource back slightly faster. Do the benefits stack...
Deafening Blow - Is this meant to cause the concentration saving throw while the target is deafened? I don't think it currently does that as written. Probably should say something like "while deafened this way." Or is it meant just to keep them from casting a spell as a reaction?
Overall, looks...
