Re: Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
Ok, so if the expanded spell lists are part of an ACF for a class - effectively "if you play a bard you may select spells from the bard list and also command etc." then you can play the expanded spell list if you are a bard, but not if you have an ability that grants access to something on the bard spell list - like Magic Initiate.

Re: Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
So, do the new summoning spells still not use hit dice for hp locking Sheperd Druid's bonus hp feature out? Or was that changed from UA?

Re: Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
I am excited for many of the subclasses that were confirmed for this book. The only concerns I have is how Aberrant Mind will function (because I kind of liked both the original Aberrant Mind and the Psionic Soul, so I kind of hope they went with a happy medium and that it isn't just a renamed Psionic Soul) and the amount of spells we're getting (I had kind of hoped their would be more, maybe even a few more tentacle themed spells like Evard's Menacing Tentacles and Evard's All-Seeing Worm).
However, I am still excited for the Fathomless Warlock, Beast Barbarian, Genie Warlock and many of the others.
It feels like a Halloween Party in a DnD Book and I love it.

Re: Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
To be honest though, I didn't like the Order of the Scribe's final ability (which I made clear in my survey), so I kind of hope they changed it up a bit.

Re: Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
The medium armor really doesn't matter much for the Mountain Dwarf Bladesinger since you can't use it with Bladesong. The Mountain Dwarf is still a really strong choice in Point Buy games because of +2 times 2 which really amounts to being able to get two 18s at level 4. It is also a really good choice for non-Bladesinger Wizards, Bards, or Sorcs because of the armor proficiency.
Goblin and Tortle are also really solid choices for Bladesinger.
Meanwhile Human variant is still probably the optimal choice.

Re: Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
It's not the same, great on SAD builds, but the difference is starting with a 17 in one stat and at best a 15 in the next or starting with two 16s.
One of the best cases for that though is taking the +2 in Dex then grabbing the newly unrestricted Elven Accuracy to start the game with an 18 in point buy and super advantage.Last edited by Dork_Forge; 2020-11-01 at 01:40 PM.

Re: Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
Nope. Not there.
However.....
Remember that only the new Custom Race is the only one that can start with a Feat that isn’t VHuman.
They get +2 to a stat, Darkvision or a Skill Proficiency, and a Feat. (And I think a language)
So with the half feats available, that’s the only way to start with an 18 in a stat besides being a Changeling, which only lets you start with 18 Charisma.

Re: Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
The funny part for me will be seeing if the dragonborn-related feats will be changed- or if they won't bother making characters without breath weapons capable of using it.

Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
Dipping in to give my comments:
1) I like being able to change stats on the races. It's neat and ultimately won't do much harm in my opinion (regardless of how right or wrong that opinion is)
2) Spell customization is a neat idea, granted I've not read the specifics. The only thing I can think of every changing is the damage type of a cantrip here and there to be a little more thematic. If functionality was the same I probably wouldn't stop a player from making a change.
3) Man, I really hope they throw sorcerers a bone. If not now, some day.
4)Looking at the replacement for Favored enemy
"Lv1 Favored Foe replaces Favored Enemy feature and works with foe slayer, When you hit a creature with an attack roll you may mark it as your favored enemy for 1 min or until you lose concentration, first time you hit it each turn you do 1d4 damage, 1d6 at lv6 and 1d8 at lv14, you can use this PB time per LR"
While it's not the lord and savior we might have wanted I'd still happily take it over Favored enemy anyway. For the pure reason that I have NEVER used Favored enemy on my ranger in any way, shape or form. Is this my fault or the DM's fault? Perhaps, but that's still what transpired and I'd rather not put any pressure on my DM to put specific kinds of enemies or npcs into campaigns. I will always have it as an option in combat, and it will always give me a result which is just nice as a class feature. The bonuses I would lose for Favored Enemy could be scryed and found other ways, perhaps even using the new 3rd level ability extra spells to do it.
While it interferes with hunter's mark and other concentration spells like Swift Quiver or Guardian of Nature that are designed for prolonged focus fire fighting, it's at least something I can use as a hunter's mark replacement and focus on other spells for spells known and spells cast. It at least allows comboing with other concentration spells in it.
You could cast Hail of Thorns or Zephyr Strike for instance, get the aoe damage or the free movement and damage advantage as well as the single target damage, and then mark them as your favored foe to trigger the damage from there out. Or just mark someone and have an extra Cure Wounds to spare for later.
Though it would be nice to have a line to it that adds:
•At lvl 6, you become more determined to slay your favored foe. Casting a concentration spell of lvl 1 or 2 does not interrupt Favor Foe's concentration as long as you have targeted your favored foe. At lvl 14, this effect extends to level 3 and 4 spells.
(So recasting hunters mark using your bonus action after your initial target dies, for instance, would still break Favored Foe and require you to remark. Casting Zephyr strike and NOT hitting your favored foe, would also break your favored foe.)
I feel that's a nice addition while not letting you run away with it. Can't be access by dips either.

Re: Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
Creature speed has no effect on overland travel, as per raw. Forced Marches could give advantage to the side of the higher con though.
P.S. The spell research topic is interesting, my take is that spell research doesn't necessarily mean making spells that are outside the phb (you could be the first caster of hypnotic pattern in X world). Second, homebrew can be difficult for some DM's to implement even if my personal thoughts are the existing spell list is not diverse enough. Third, research being unavailable could be in the same boat as magic item creation, incredibly difficult(at least by raw) and not very widespread.
I personally like homebrew spells and similar type in game things and so I use them in my games. As for research, only wizards and so far handled with level up gains.Last edited by Witty Username; 2020-11-09 at 02:09 AM.

Re: Let's get a sneak peak into Tasha's
Just heard that JC tweeted saying that Booming Blade and Green Flame Blade will still work with Warcaster's Reaction attack.
