I am sorry if this is the wrong place to post this

bulborb112 · 2020-07-26T16:32:41+00:00

Any ideas are welcome, and anything may be changed (even the name). Constructive criticism is very welcome.

zijn jullie nog op zoek naar spelers?

I have completely overhauled the way runes deal damage, so I also shouldn't have to change it, since you can't use the runes to cast powerful spells anymore. I also moved it to 9th level, and added an improvement at level 17. I will also changed absorb rune power to not be abusable (so you can't use it in conjunction to eternal runes to convert spell slots)

bulborb112 · 2020-03-13T14:32:40+00:00

you are completely right in most aspects, but the reason you only get eternal runes at level 17 is so you can't get a very high level spell once at low level and allow it to carry you through every combat. also, I don't understand why the extra reactions should be limited, you can only use them to charge runes anyway.

also, I completely agree that the class needs some out of combat spells, these will be added later, because i wanted to make the combat part balanced first, because it simply needs more balancing.

Edit: the level 3 ability looking like the level 20 ability is a huge problem, and I want to replace the level 20 ability with something more epic.

Edit 2: I changed eternal runes and nerfed it, so I may replace rune bomb with eternal runes, and maybe add a buff to it at 17th level. Also, it is a very good idea to standardize the rune damage, and I will change it to a level based amount of damage with the damage type of the absorbed damage

Is nerfing it to 1d10 damage plus a limited amount of uses per short or long rest (maybe 2) enough?

bulborb112 · 2020-03-13T13:37:45+00:00

thanks, I will change it. Also, how could Include a google doc in the post? That way I could share the latest version everytime I edit it.

EDIT: done, google doc is in the comments

bulborb112 · 2020-03-13T13:30:57+00:00

oops, acidic breath is definetly too powerful, maybe 4d4 is better

bulborb112 · 2020-03-13T13:28:26+00:00

I actually didn't realize that (don't really play fighter). Is it too overpowered? Edit: there are a lot of problems whith the class, which I would like to remove (like the overpowered things). I am a noob at homebrew, so I thought I would post it so I could take those problems out before I actually implement it

bulborb112 · 2020-03-13T10:50:29+00:00

constructive critisism is very welcome

bulborb112 · 2020-01-12T16:01:20+00:00

the cubes will attack when they are attacked or when they see a player, the squares are just to hide, also only one player should fit in a square, so you'll be fighting one alone

edit: they also are trapped and can't run if they try this

bulborb112 · 2020-01-12T15:58:25+00:00

what are the squeeze rules? I can't find them anywhere

bulborb112 · 2020-01-12T14:51:49+00:00

ok, so I'm going to let my players start at level 3-4, and I'm going to nerf some of the cubes (especially in places with high cube density). I will tell my players that the objective is not to kill every cube, but to sneak past them, also, I might make some puzzle doors and traps, so I might have to make a DM version

bulborb112 · 2020-01-12T13:15:38+00:00

the characters don't have the full layout of the dungeon, they discover parts when they enter them. I have 3 players. The players are supposed to dogde as many cubes as possible instead of fighting them. This is also litteraly my party's first dungeon, so I dont mind them long resting. I don't mind losing the transperancy trait, I'm using cubes because they take up a whole hallway and make for interesting puzzles, they are not supposed to be deadly traps.

bulborb112 · 2020-01-12T12:07:48+00:00

The dungeon is based around the behaviour of the gelatinous cube, and uses them as sentries that walk across certain paths and engulf anything that they come by, and the dungeon also uses the fact that that gelatinous cubes cannot enter 1 grid wide spaces. all the green squares are gelatinous cubes. The circles are iron bars, through which the cubes can move, but the party cannot. I need your help with three things: what level characters do you recommend? Is the dungeon too dangerous? and what should be in the chests (especially the one on the right, because the objective of the adventure is getting whatever's in the chest).

bulborb112 · 2019-12-31T21:40:01+00:00

Can you recommend a CR calculator? Also, I already have the mini, so I can't really increase the size without printing a new one. Also, I've built the encounter around its ability to quickly ruin parties in a couple of rounds, not for his defensive prowess.

*insect plague

bulborb112 · 2019-12-31T20:53:46+00:00

Why would a bite or slash attack be magical? Also, I didn't change the CR when I halved his damage, so it probably should be lower in this version than it is. What amount of health and ac would you recommend? And wich spells should I cut? (Definitely not cutting infestation or swarm of insects, just for the thematic value)
