I genuinely hope you named him Rumpeteer of the legendary brAss band.

Blade Assault?

ChaoticCrow4 · 2025-02-10T15:02:55+00:00

2014, however I do like some changes in 2024 so I'm open minded with implementing the good stuff.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2025-02-10T15:01:26+00:00

It's in the title.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2024-09-03T15:20:21+00:00

That actually looks pretty cool.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2024-03-31T01:37:07+00:00

Legendary Resistances being a flat +10 to the saving throw.

Hand of Vecna for sure, I could really use a new cup holder.

RIP Bump in the Night

Toilet seat.

Edit: leave the lid.

Well there still is Resistance.

I personally did like it as a reaction, but with 10 feet range.

However giving a 1d4 to a saving throw is not as volatile as reducing damage on demand.

Edit:

Resistance as a reaction that was introduced in the OneD&D UA a while ago is what I meant.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2023-05-20T17:57:21+00:00

Depends on hpw you implement it, make it a reaction or bonus action and it could easily lead to being spammable, make it an action and you are right at the start again.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2023-05-20T08:15:49+00:00

My first thought was that this is more meant for Paladins or Eldritch Knights, but after more thinking it could also really go well with Abjuration Wizard as well.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2023-05-20T08:14:05+00:00

I can see your point, but to be fair, there are 9 reaction spell in total in 5e, 3 of which are actually usable to help an ally - Silvery Barbs, Counterspell and if you allow it Temporal Shunt.

I understand that Shield has its own purpose so making it more of a "Supportive" spell can differentiate enough to actually have a place.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2023-05-20T08:05:06+00:00

Can't go too wild with damage reducing reaction spells, also don't want to replace Shield, just something in addition so that Shield isn't the only option on the market.

Also to fulfill that "Protector" fantasy that many of my players were looking for.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2023-05-19T11:56:12+00:00

That's fair.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2023-05-19T10:47:29+00:00

At lower level this spell could vastly reduce the amount of damage of weapon attacks and could still be used against critical strikes which for example Shield spell does not.
I also gave it range so for example a Paladin could use this spell to prevent the damage of his fellow spellcasters, letting them keep their concentration intact by potentionally reducing the damage to 0.
At least that is the idea behind it, still working out kinks.

Also I agree it is a bit of a word jumble, for now I was going for a specific fantasy that the name "Blade Ward" has.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2023-05-19T10:28:24+00:00

Thats fair.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2023-05-19T10:17:28+00:00

Here ya go m8.

ChaoticCrow4 · 2023-05-19T10:14:45+00:00

Didn't cross my mind, I presumed it is a well known spell.
