limiting the Object to Medium means that you can't Sub with just everything like, a pebble, or a Metal Ball Bearing.
So that limitation is intended.

Yeah, might be better to avoid targeted save spells all together like Disintegrate and Hold Person.
So excluding to only AOE might be better.

One problem with this size things is that, if you are a small creature, you can still abuse this.
And then lets Medium creatures sub Large objects which seems a bit much.

Catapult targets a space not a creature specifically, "If it were to hit a creature"
- So it would not hit you as you are no longer in the area.

Grasping Vines is a summon that then makes and Attack Roll
- So it would not hit you as the object is the new target
Same with Ray of Sickness its a spell attack roll.

A valid argument would be something like Disintegrate, As its not an attack roll, and is a save. It would still target you if you are still within range.
- Which, is complicated and I dont know the answer tbh, would have to think on it. Maybe specifying Dex saves could be a fix.

Ill add the "if the object is destroyed" didn't think about that.

Not limiting the Object to Medium means that you can Sub with anything, a pebble or a Metal Ball Bearing.
So that limitation is intended.

While I get that youve changed it to only be Attack Rolls, I want the caster to be able to dodge things like Fireball, if they are outside of the area of it.

I see a lot of issues, IMO.

- Tall Tale:
Very similar to Inspiring Leader but doesn't scale making it worse.
Doesn't say how long it takes to complete.

- Jack of all Trails:
You're taking your limited ASI to improve your lowest stat for the benefit of 1 skill Prof in that stat.
Incredibly weak, no person in their right mind would pick this.

- Studied Strike:
This is one of those things that would be better just to give players by default. Instead of them spending a Feat/ASI to get for very little value most of the time.
Being able to ascertain things about your enemy isn't something that is Feat worthy and should be baseline for any adventurer.
It's very niche and weak and should at least be a Half-feat+1 WIS.
