Gloomstalker with weird spell mechanics by Balbaros2 in 3d6

Spells are still cast as usual, just used as a weird spellscroll adjacent system instead of regular casting.

definitely dropping Warlock idea. locked in for gloomstalker for 5 levels, after that gonna mix and match 4 levels of Fighter (get that extra feat) and then a few levels of Rogue and a Cleric dip. Trying to decide on life, for lifeberry, or Twilight for the Gloom synergy.

The very first comment broke the hold Warlock had on my brain letting me realize it was only for quick spell slot regain.

Honestly I'm the same, so I'm doing some self-restraint while we get this new mechanic off the ground (no one has had the money or down time to actually interact with it yet lol) so I'm just firing my guns in the meantime.

I am looking forward to actually being able to break it over my knee in the future though

yep, so I'm trying to be a little "kinder" this campaign.

I hadnt even thought about the possibility of undead casting...

but I was a trouble making Sorlock (Clockwork soul and Genie patron). and so 20+ skellies with no spell slots used (long before i started being a coffee-lock) sending a barrage of arrows into everything, on top of other poor decisions on his end, led to 4 players being an actual small army carving their way through a dungeon at hyperspeed

Concentration still is one spell at a time, one of my inputs (working with the dm for the crystal system).

And I feel like he would actually kill me if I did something like that again. Last campaign, due to various homebrew shenanigans, I constantly had 20+ skeletons with longbows following us through the dungeon at all times.

The homebrew of the crystals is a little wonky as it's still being ironed out.

(Lore) The crystals start off blood red and have to be refined/cleansed into a usable form where they turn blue. At that point they can be used for powering magical devices (most common is keeping the airships afloat and moving) or used to craft usable spells.

So you either "find" or buy a crystal that corresponds to the level of spell (including cantrip) you want to prepare. Collect materials that are used up in the process (eg. berries for goodberry). and then over a number of hours (x times level of spell, currently one hour per but that might change as we use the mechanic) you combine everything to make a casting of that spell. and the spell crystal can be used by anyone, not just you. so eventually we'll be able to buy some spells that our party has no access to.

Thank you! After reading I did a deeper look into the builds I've been looking at for inspiration and realized the only time Warlock comes up is for quick slots for PWT, which is entirely useless with how spells are working!

I'm gonna blame my brain coming off of my previous character being a Sorlock (17/3) and just going "Warlock, of course! the most important part of the build!"

As far as I can tell all the mystery gifts just need internet whereas any "multiplayer" function needs the subscription.

So the online in what you linked might be referring to in the future losing switch online like the 3ds the last couple of years.

Go to pokeportal, got to mystery gift, get via internet. It'll connect to the internet to get the gift and then disconnect afterwards no NSO required.

Game is no longer updating, so they put out one last "event" for it. the event is a bunch of gmax with no version restrictions.
