box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10px;"> <span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">John Norman's long-running Gor series has a reputation that precedes it. Set on a brutal counter-Earth where beautiful women long to be enslaved by the strong men who maintain nature's moral balance, it would seem that the books have all the trappings of spicy, guilty pleasure reading. Jack and Kate dive into the sixth title, <a href="https://amzn.to/2DbeM0V" rel="noopener" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Raiders of Gor</em></a>, alleged to be the last "good" entry in the thirty-five book series. Listen along as your hosts encounter sexual slavery, drunk crying, and enough tedious agricultural detail to break a lesser reader.</span></div> <div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10px;"> <span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Why have critics neglected to acknowledge Norman's high-minded philosophical influences? Can civic pride transform a hive of scum and villainy into a city of heroes? Where do Home Stones come from? How is series protagonist Tarl Cabot a lot like a startup founder? All these questions and many more will be answered in this month's episode of Bad Books for Bad People.</span></div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/05226738666709754348' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/05226738666709754348' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Jack Guignol</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://talesofthegrotesqueanddungeonesque.blogspot.com/2019/11/raiders-of-gor.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://talesofthegrotesqueanddungeonesque.blogspot.com/2019/11/raiders-of-gor.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2019-11-26T23:55:00-05:00'>11:55 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1248343450'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=5454587140887591817&postID=1900188514205783566&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=5454587140887591817&postID=1900188514205783566&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=5454587140887591817&postID=1900188514205783566&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

Here's how I would do it with a deck of tarot cards.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">The system below gives a mechanical incentive for players to roleplay scenes that reveal more about their characters: <br /><br />During a period of downtime, a player may nominate themselves to roleplay a tale-telling scene. <br /><br />That player draws a single card from a standard tarot deck. The card drawn determines the content of the tale, as per the tables below. <br /><br />The player will then tell a story based on that theme in the voice of their character to the other characters present. The story should reveal something about the character’s backstory or give the other players a greater sense of that character’s past. <br /><br />After a player completes a tale-telling scene, their character gains inspiration.<br /> <br /><b>Examples </b></span><br /> <ul> <li><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">A player draws the Six of Wands and tells a tale about their character running into their estranged father in a busy market. </span></span></li> <li><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">A player draws the Hanged Man and tells a tale of how their character was forced to surrender to the opposing side when they were employed as a mercenary soldier. </span></span></li> <li><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">A player draws the Star and tells a tale about the example set by their character’s mentor—whose sacrifice for a great cause gave them hope for the future. </span></span></li> <li><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">A player draws the Two of Pentacles and tells a tale about how their character learned to adapt to a life of poverty on the streets after their noble family’s downfall. </span></span></li> <li><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">A player draws the Ace of Pentacles and tells the tale of why they gave up being a baker to pursue a life of reckless adventure as a picaro. </span></span></li> </ul> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-size:

Arcana article dropped with playtest material that either enhances or replaces existing class features</a><span style="font-size: large;">. Let's take a look at the options and see what they do, if they work, or if they might need a further iteration. Because this UA article is long, I'm splitting it up into sections; this time we're covering the fighter, monk, and paladin. The bard, barbarian, cleric, and druid were covered <a href="https://talesofthegrotesqueanddungeonesque.blogspot.com/2019/11/commentary-on-unearthed-arcana-class.html">here</a>. The fighter, monk, and paladin were covered <a href="https://talesofthegrotesqueanddungeonesque.blogspot.com/2019/11/commentary-on-unearthed-arcana-class_13.html">here</a>.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Ranger Features</u></b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Deft Explorer</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>1st-level ranger feature (replaces Natural Explorer)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">You are an unsurpassed explorer and survivor. Choose one of the following benefits, and then </span><span style="font-size: large;">choose another one at 6th and 10th level. </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> Let's be honest, Deft Explorer and Favored Foe are less "options" than they are opportunities to re-write the poorly conceived 1st level of the ranger class. I think we have to consider them in that light, which will color my evaluation of the individual benefits below.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Canny</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Choose one skill: Animal Handling, Athletics, History, Insight, Investigation, Medicine, Nature, </span><span style="font-size: large;">Perception, Stealth, or Survival. You gain proficiency in the chosen skill if you don’t already have it, and you can add double your proficiency bonus to ability checks using that skill. In addition, thanks to your extensive wandering, you are able to speak, read, and write two languages of your choice.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #990000;"><b>Commentary.</b></span> One way the ranger was seemingly supposed to be differentiated from the fighter and the paladin was by being the more skill-focused of the martial classes, but the mechanical support for that isn't really there aside from a slightly more robust set of skills. This is a very welcome addition, but if I had to make a criticism here I'd push for this feature granting you double proficiency with two skills instead of just one.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Roving</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Your walking speed increases by 5, and you gain a climbing speed and a swimming speed equal to </span><span style="font-size: large;">your walking speed. </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> This is okay: nicely thematic, but also boring enough that this will almost certainly be every ranger's third pick from the list of Deft Explorer features.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Tireless</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">As an action, you can give yourself a number of temporary hit points equal to 1d10 + your Wisdom modifier. You can use this special action a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (a minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest. In addition, whenever you finish a short rest, your exhaustion level, if any, is decreased by 1.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> This seems pretty powerful at 1st level, but it's pretty cool that it kinda-sorta replicates rangers starting with two hit dice as in early editions. I do wonder if this is so obviously good that it will everybody's first choice of the Deft Explorer features. It's essentially 15 extra hit points at 1st level. I'd hate to see Canny pushed to 6th level when it feels so central to emphasizing the ranger concept. Also, there is no way the exhaustion decrease will make it into the final version; it's too good as a one-level multiclass into ranger to provide a huge benefit to berserker barbarians and their Frenzy feature.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Favored Foe</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>1st-level ranger feature (replaces Favored Enemy)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">You can call on your bond with nature to mark a creature as your favored enemy for a time: you </span><span style="font-size: large;">know the hunter’s mark spell, and Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for it. You can use it a certain number of times without expending a spell slot and without requiring concentration—a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (a minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest. When you gain the Spellcasting feature at 2nd level, hunter’s mark doesn’t count against the number of ranger spells you know.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> The more I think about this one, the less I'm satisfied with it. It is a much better option than Favored Enemy, but as much as free <i>hunter's mark</i> without the burden of concentration is a step in the right direction, it doesn't address how pinched rangers are by their reliance on bonus actions, particularly if they are two-weapon specialists. </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">This underlines something that seems more and more true: one of the ranger's biggest mechanical hurdles isn't in their class specifically: it's the way two-weapon fighting and the action economy functions in 5e as a whole. What we might really need to make this complete is a replacement for the Two-Weapon Fighting style. </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">It also underlines that some things should have been class features instead of spells all along; <i>hunter's mark</i> and the warlock's <i>hex</i> and eldritch blast really stick out as "options" that should have been core, but I suspect that looked a little too much like 4e to pass muster.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">In any case, I like the idea here but the execution isn't quite right yet. As it is right now, a concentration-free <i>hunter's mark</i> is too good as a one-level dip into ranger for classes that can stack other effects on top of it, such as the warlock's <i>hex</i> spell.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Primal Awareness</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>3rd-level ranger feature (replaces Primeval Awareness)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">You can focus your awareness through the interconnections of nature: you learn additional spells when you reach certain levels in this class if you don’t already know them, as shown in the Primal Awareness Spells table. These spells don’t count against the number of ranger spells you know. </span><span style="font-size: large;">Primal Awareness Spells: </span><span style="font-size: large;">3rd detect magic, speak with animals; </span><span style="font-size: large;">5th beast sense, locate animals or plants; </span><span style="font-size: large;">9th speak with plants; </span><span style="font-size: large;">13th locate creature; </span><span style="font-size: large;">17th commune with nature. </span><span style="font-size: large;">You can cast each of these spells once without expending a spell slot. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> Primeval Awareness is one of my least favorite features to adjudicate in play. There is zero chance that I have thought-out the kinds of monsters within a mile radius (and definitely not the six-mile radius) of any given location in my setting. Primal Awareness is an option I am much happier with, even though I'm surprised at the sheer number of spells its adds to the ranger's list. It's especially great for Hunter and Beast Master rangers, who really suffer from not gaining bonus spells as the newer archetypes do, but on top of those later archetypes it feels like it potentially over-emphasizes the ranger as a spellcaster.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Fade Away</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>10th-level ranger feature (replaces Hide in Plain Sight)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">You can use a bonus action to magically become invisible, along with any equipment you are </span><span style="font-size: large;">wearing or carrying, until the start of your next turn. Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">until you finish a short or long rest. </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> Any alternative to Hide in Plain Sight is welcome.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Ranger Companion Options</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>3rd-level Beast Master feature (enhances Ranger’s Companion)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">(Two paragraphs of flavor text snipped.) The primal beast is a special creature that a Beast Master can choose for the Ranger’s Companion feature. When choosing such a creature, you decide whether it is a Beast of the Air or the Earth, and you determine its appearance. Stories describe primal beasts that </span><span style="font-size: large;">mystically change form to align with the spirit of their companion. When a primal beast is met apart from a Beast Master, the creature takes the form a regular beast of challenge rating 1/4 or lower, as </span><span style="font-size: large;">determined by the DM.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> What we have here is two beast companion templates to use in place of scouring the Monster Manual for a good beast to use with this feature. That is the way it should have been from the get-go, but again I suspect that Fear of Fourth Edition got in the way. (While we're here, this is also how the druid's Wild Shape should have worked as well.) </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">There are some obvious boosts in using the primal beasts: they gain hit dice as you level up, they get saving throw proficiencies, and they let the companion attack as a bonus action. This makes the beast companion on par with two-weapon fighting, but also rule out two-weapon fighting for this kind of ranger, which is a fine trade-off but should be noted as it might otherwise be a trap for new players. Again, this feels more like a needed revision than an option, but it's pretty welcome.

When the wearer makes an ability check with a skill in which they lack proficiency, they can add a d4 to the roll. If you lose the talisman, you can perform a 1-hour ceremony to receive a replacement from your patron. This ceremony can be performed during a short or long rest, and it destroys the previous amulet.

Let's take a look at the options and see what they do, if they work, or if they might need a further iteration. Because this UA article is long, I'm splitting it up into sections; this time we're covering the fighter, monk, and paladin. The bard, barbarian, cleric, and druid were covered <a href="https://talesofthegrotesqueanddungeonesque.blogspot.com/2019/11/commentary-on-unearthed-arcana-class.html">here</a>.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Fighter Features</u></b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Superior Technique Fighting Style</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">You learn one maneuver of your choice from </span><span style="font-size: large;">among those available to the Battle Master </span><span style="font-size: large;">archetype. If a maneuver you use requires your</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">target to make a saving throw to resist the </span><span style="font-size: large;">maneuver’s effects, the saving throw DC equals 8 </span><span style="font-size: large;">+ your proficiency bonus + your Strength or </span><span style="font-size: large;">Dexterity modifier (your choice). </span><span style="font-size: large;">You gain one superiority die, which is a d6 </span><span style="font-size: large;">(this die is added to any superiority dice you </span><span style="font-size: large;">have from another source). This die is used to</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">fuel your maneuvers. A superiority die is </span><span style="font-size: large;">expended when you use it. You regain your </span><span style="font-size: large;">expended superiority dice when you finish a </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">short or long rest.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> This Fighting Style option feels pretty weak. I think I would always take a "always on" Fighting Style over this "once a rest I can do a cool trick" one.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Other Style Options</u></b> (note these are also available to paladins and rangers)</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Blind Fighting</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Being unable to see a creature doesn’t impose </span><span style="font-size: large;">disadvantage on your attack rolls against it, </span><span style="font-size: large;">provided the creature isn’t hidden from you.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> Being blinded comes up so infrequently that I can't imagine taking this Fighting Style.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Interception</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">When a creature you can see hits a target that is </span><span style="font-size: large;">within 5 feet of you with an attack, you can use </span><span style="font-size: large;">your reaction to reduce the damage the target </span><span style="font-size: large;">takes by 1d10 + your proficiency bonus (to a </span><span style="font-size: large;">minimum of 0 damage). You must be wielding a </span><span style="font-size: large;">shield or a simple or martial weapon to use this </span><span style="font-size: large;">reaction.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> I think this would be incredibly strong in early levels (essentially negating part of the opposition's action economy), but really lackluster at higher levels.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Thrown Weapon Fighting</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">You can draw a weapon that has the thrown </span><span style="font-size: large;">property as part of the attack you make with the </span><span style="font-size: large;">weapon. </span><span style="font-size: large;">In addition, when you hit with a ranged attack </span><span style="font-size: large;">using a thrown weapon, you gain a +1 bonus to </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">the damage roll.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #990000;"><b>Commentary.</b></span> I like this, but I think it could also be stronger. I don't think a +1 to hit or a range boost on top of the rest of the feature would be out of order. I'm sure this is partially because I'm not much fussed about policing who can draw what weapon when, but I'd rather just apply the Archery fighting style to thrown weapons.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Unarmed Fighting</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Your unarmed strikes can deal bludgeoning </span><span style="font-size: large;">damage equal to 1d6 + your Strength modifier. If </span><span style="font-size: large;">you strike with two free hands, the d6 becomes a </span><span style="font-size: large;">d8. </span><span style="font-size: large;">When you successfully start a grapple, you can</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">deal 1d4 bludgeoning damage to the grappled </span><span style="font-size: large;">creature. Until the grapple ends, you can also </span><span style="font-size: large;">deal this damage to the creature whenever you </span><span style="font-size: large;">hit it with a melee attack.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> I really want to like this, but I don't think it makes unarmed fighting a competitive option. Giving up using a shield or a great weapon for 1d8 damage doesn't feel like a good trade. The problem is that making the damage any higher potentially steps on one of the monk's core features. It also suffers from a lack of ways to make unarmed damage magical to bypass resistance to nonmagical bludgeoning damage. I think what "brawler" characters need is a subclass, not a fighting style.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Maneuver Versatility</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>1st-level feature (enhances Maneuvers)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">If you know any maneuvers from the fighter’s </span><span style="font-size: large;">Battle Master archetype, you can replace one </span><span style="font-size: large;">maneuver you know with a different maneuver </span><span style="font-size: large;">whenever you finish a long rest. This change </span><span style="font-size: large;">reflects your physical and mental preparation </span><span style="font-size: large;">for the day ahead.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> Another enhancement that allows you to swap-out a feature that hasn't been working out.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Maneuver Options</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>1st-level feature (enhances Maneuvers)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">If you have access to maneuvers, the following </span><span style="font-size: large;">maneuvers are added to the list of options </span><span style="font-size: large;">available to you. Maneuvers are available to </span><span style="font-size: large;">Battle Masters and to characters who have the</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Superior Technique fighting style or the Martial </span><span style="font-size: large;">Adept feat.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> Okay, I'm not cut-and-pasting them all, but here are my general thoughts: Ambush, Silver Tongue, and Studious Eye all give you a non-combat option for your fighter, which is very cool. Since you get a limited pool of Maneuvers, you'll probably only take one of these at most, but they're nice ways to add flavor. Brace gives you an attack against anybody who gets up in your face for a superiority die, which is cool, but I wonder if that steps on the Sentinel feat a bit. Restraining Strike gives you a way to grapple and restrain, which is what many people seem to want out of the grappling rules anyway. Snipe gives you a ranged attack for a superiority die as a bonus action; that one seems very nice.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Monk Features</u></b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Monk Weapons</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>1st-level monk feature (enhances Martial Arts)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">You can use this feature to define your monk </span><span style="font-size: large;">weapons, rather than using the definition in </span><span style="font-size: large;">Martial Arts. </span><span style="font-size: large;">You practice your martial arts with specially </span><span style="font-size: large;">chosen weapons, which become monk weapons</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">for you. You can choose a number of weapons to </span><span style="font-size: large;">be your monk weapons equal to 5 + your </span><span style="font-size: large;">Wisdom modifier (minimum of five weapons). </span><span style="font-size: large;">The chosen weapons must each meet the </span><span style="font-size: large;">following criteria: </span><span style="font-size: large;">The weapon must be a simple or martial </span><span style="font-size: large;">weapon. </span><span style="font-size: large;">You must be proficient with the weapon. </span><span style="font-size: large;">The weapon must lack these properties: heavy, </span><span style="font-size: large;">special, or two-handed.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> I don't really get what this enhancement is addressing. It's nice to be able to choose your monk weapons, but since you can only choose weapons you are already proficient in I think this only lets you count weapons as monk weapons if you get proficiency in them from another source, such as a racial trait, a feat, or multiclassing.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Ki-Fueled Strike</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>2nd-level monk feature (enhances Ki)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">If you spend 1 ki or more as part of your action </span><span style="font-size: large;">on your turn, you can then immediately make </span><span style="font-size: large;">one unarmed strike as a bonus action.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> This has to be a stealth buff to the Way of Four Elements Monk. Letting them have an unarmed strike when they burn ki on an elemental power is nice, but it doesn't really fix how few powers monks get from that subclass or the wonky way those powers are priced in terms of ki points. At least it's something. Funny thing about this one: I don't think it actually helps you at the level it becomes available.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Ki Features</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>2nd-level monk feature (enhances Ki)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">When you gain the Ki feature at 2nd level, you </span><span style="font-size: large;">get access to the following features.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #990000;"><b>Commentary.</b></span> Distant Eye negates disadvantage on ranged attacks at extreme range, but how often does a monk make that kind of attack? Quickened Healing gives very few hit points in return for 2 ki points; that doesn't seem worth it. </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Paladin Features</u></b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Blessed Warrior (Fighting Style)</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">You learn two cantrips of your choice from the </span><span style="font-size: large;">cleric spell list. They count as paladin spells for </span><span style="font-size: large;">you, and Charisma is your spellcasting ability for </span><span style="font-size: large;">them. Whenever you gain a level in this class, </span><span style="font-size: large;">you can replace one of these cantrips with </span><span style="font-size: large;">another cantrip from the cleric spell list.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> Do clerics really have any cantrips that a paladin would be willing to trade Great Weapon Fighting for? I guess it kinda gives them a ranged option aside from thrown weapons.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">Note that rangers get a similar Fighting Style option with regards to druid cantrips, but shillelagh is an interesting spell for a ranger who wants to emphasize Wisdom over Dexterity or Strength.

Let's take a look at the options and see what they do, if they work, or if they might need a further iteration. </span><span style="font-size: large;">Because this UA article is long, I'm splitting it up into sections; this time we're covering the bard through the druid.</span><br /> <div> <br /></div> <b><u><span style="font-size: large;">Proficiency Versatility</span></u></b><br /> <i><span style="font-size: large;">4th-level and higher feature (enhances Ability Score Improvement) </span></i><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Whenever you gain the Ability Score Improvement feature from your class, you can also replace one of your skill proficiencies with a skill proficiency offered by your class at 1st level (the proficiency you replace needn’t be from the class). This change represents one of your skills atrophying as you focus on a different skill.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> I like this; it's a pretty basic "re-training" option. This is probably a good one to adopt for longer-running campaigns; by fourth level you might have figured out that someone else in the party is better at Investigation than you are, so swap that skill out for something you'll get to roll more often. I bet if this makes it to publication they will change the wording from "needn't."</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <b><u><span style="font-size: large;">Barbarian Features</span></u></b><br /> <b><span style="font-size: large;">Survival Instincts</span></b><br /> <i><span style="font-size: large;">2nd-level barbarian feature (replaces Danger Sense)</span></i><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">You become proficient in your choice of two of the following skills: Animal Handling, Medicine, </span><span style="font-size: large;">Nature, Perception, or Survival. Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses either of those skills.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> This is an interesting replacement option because it isn't strictly better than the feature it replaces, which means it's a real option instead of a patch. Danger Sense's advantage on Dexterity saving throws is pretty good, but this is a nice way to squeeze in some non-combat utility into the barbarian class.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <b><u><span style="font-size: large;">Instinctive Pounce</span></u></b><br /> <i><span style="font-size: large;">5th-level barbarian feature (replaces Fast Movement)</span></i><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">When a creature ends its turn within 15 feet of you, you can use your reaction to move up to half </span><span style="font-size: large;">your speed to a space closer to the creature. This movement doesn’t provoke opportunity attacks.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> This is another replacement option that doesn't obviously overshadow the feature it replaces. If anything, this one strikes me as being fairly situational; if your group uses a grid map for combat, Instinctive Pounce probably has more value than if you don't. </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Bard Features</u></b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Magical Inspiration</b></span><br /> <i><span style="font-size: large;">1st-level bard feature (enhances Bardic </span><span style="font-size: large;">Inspiration)</span></i><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">If a creature has a Bardic Inspiration die from </span><span style="font-size: large;">you and casts a spell, the creature can roll that </span><span style="font-size: large;">die and add the number rolled to one damage or </span><span style="font-size: large;">healing roll of the spell. The Bardic Inspiration </span><span style="font-size: large;">die is then lost.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> I don't really get why this would buff spell damage but not weapon damage. I guess this offers something extra to casters who rely on saving throw spells vs. attack roll spells.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Spell Versatility</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>1st-level bard feature (enhances Spellcasting)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Whenever you finish a long rest, you can replace </span><span style="font-size: large;">one spell you learned from this Spellcasting </span><span style="font-size: large;">feature with another spell from the bard spell </span><span style="font-size: large;">list. The new spell must be the same level as the </span><span style="font-size: large;">spell you replace.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> <b>Note that this feature is also available to rangers, sorcerers, and warlocks. </b>This is a great enhancement for classes that feel a little starved for choice when it comes to spell selection, particularly the sorcerer. One thing I would like to see added here: also make this feature available to Eldritch Knight fighters and Arcane Trickster rogues!</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Cleric Features</u></b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Cantrip Versatility</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>1st-level cleric feature (enhances Spellcasting)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can </span><span style="font-size: large;">replace one cantrip you learned from this </span><span style="font-size: large;">Spellcasting feature with another cantrip from </span><span style="font-size: large;">the cleric spell list.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> <b>Note that this feature is also available to druids and wizards.</b> Much like Spell Versatility, this is a good way to get a character out of a bad choice. Part of me wonders if this feature exists to let people off the hook for taking the True Strike cantrip.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <b><span style="font-size: large;">Channel Divinity: Harness </span><span style="font-size: large;">Divine Power</span></b><br /> <i><span style="font-size: large;">2nd-level cleric feature (enhances Channel </span><span style="font-size: large;">Divinity) </span></i><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">Note that this feature is also available for paladins. You can expend a use of your Channel Divinity to </span><span style="font-size: large;">fuel your spells. As a bonus action, you touch </span><span style="font-size: large;">your holy symbol, utter a prayer, and regain one </span><span style="font-size: large;">expended 1st-level spell slot.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> I'm not that familiar with all of the Channel Divinity options, but this features feels like an option that exists to patch some duff ones. Gaining back a 1st-level spell slot doesn't feel that powerful, so I wonder how useful Harness Divine Power really is.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Blessed Strikes</b></span><br /> <i><span style="font-size: large;">8th-level cleric Divine Domain feature (replaces </span><span style="font-size: large;">Divine Strike or Potent Spellcasting)</span></i><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">In battle, you are blessed with divine might. </span><span style="font-size: large;">When a creature takes damage from one of your </span><span style="font-size: large;">spells or weapon attacks, you can also deal 1d8 </span><span style="font-size: large;">radiant damage to that creature. Once you deal </span><span style="font-size: large;">this damage, you can’t use this feature again </span><span style="font-size: large;">until the start of your next turn.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> This is a decent replacement for Cleric domains that give you Potent Spellcasting, since it applies to both cantrips and all other spells. But it's not a good swap for Divine Strike since it doesn't scale, unless you want the versatility of a bonus on both weapon attacks and spells. </span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Druid Features</u></b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Wild Companion</b></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>2nd-level druid feature (enhances Wild Shape)</i></span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">You gain the ability to summon a spirit that </span><span style="font-size: large;">assumes an animal form: as an action, you can </span><span style="font-size: large;">expend a use of your Wild Shape feature to cast </span><span style="font-size: large;">the find familiar spell, without material </span><span style="font-size: large;">components.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">When you cast the spell in this way, the </span><span style="font-size: large;">familiar is a fey instead of a beast, and the </span><span style="font-size: large;">familiar disappears after a number of hours </span><span style="font-size: large;">equal to half your druid level.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">Commentary.</span></b> This enhancement feels very situational, as just about anything a familiar could get done for you is something you can do for yourself while in wild shape. It can, however, provide a source of Help actions during combat. Still, it has good flavor and doesn't seem to break anything. (Also, does it take an hour to summon as per find familiar?) </span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">I wonder if it would be more satisfying to have a "pet subclass" for the druid instead.</span> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/05226738666709754348' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/05226738666709754348' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Jack Guignol</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://talesofthegrotesqueanddungeonesque.blogspot.com/2019/11/commentary-on-unearthed-arcana-class.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://talesofthegrotesqueanddungeonesque.blogspot.com/2019/11/commentary-on-unearthed-arcana-class.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2019-11-11T00:04:00-05:00'>12:04 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1248343450'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=5454587140887591817&postID=6639343907318525822&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=5454587140887591817&postID=6639343907318525822&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=5454587140887591817&postID=6639343907318525822&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");
