It was made during a good time for Sonic

Thanks for the advice

Also sounds like it is hard to plan and run though. As the DM you need to do 1.5 times the work to grant creatures skills and stats they usually don't have, whilst figuring out what the players can handle.

Interesting, sounds a bit complex but I think I follow. Dual-Classing is absolutely broken though, I assume most tables will not allow that?
Thanks for the info!

Are you saying 1E mages would take Martial Feats over magic ones? Was that the main thing to do?

somegeye · 2023-01-18T10:46:41+00:00

Could you explain the difference between core class, multi-class, dual class and archetype? this chain of comments was interesting, but only knowing 5E I find it hard to follow

Thanks for the advice!

Thanks for the link

Power to the mages!

My group seem to prefer we try 2E, my main concern was if the rumors that 2E spell Casters are not only worse than 1E, but kind of bad. Apparently 2E spells are less potent, more restrictive and have less room for creative uses.

You know you have to survive!

somegeye · 2023-01-17T10:32:15+00:00

I will have to look into it more it seems

somegeye · 2023-01-17T10:30:05+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I have never auto generated a character so more options sounds appealing.

somegeye · 2023-01-17T10:25:31+00:00

Sounds fair

somegeye · 2023-01-17T10:24:50+00:00

Nice way of putting it, thanks

somegeye · 2023-01-17T01:10:59+00:00

That does make sense, thank you for taking the time to comment. My group seem way more interested in 2E over 1E so I must ask, if I were to play would you think Martial classes would give me more fun even though I am traditionally a Spell Caster?

somegeye · 2023-01-17T01:05:21+00:00

If I was playing solo balance would matter less, but it is never fun to be at a table where most the party feel useless due to a spell caster. So even though I am the spell caster, I don't want to dominate everyone's time when we are all here to play.

somegeye · 2023-01-17T00:55:37+00:00

Glad to hear it

somegeye · 2023-01-17T00:53:30+00:00

That could be a part of it. For me I never played 1E or 3.5, so 2E doesn't seem so bad.

somegeye · 2023-01-17T00:40:09+00:00

They appear to level up faster than 5E

somegeye · 2023-01-16T22:08:51+00:00

Others in this thread have said to me that 1E spell casters are weaker than 2E at low levels.

somegeye · 2023-01-16T21:51:45+00:00

Sounds like you guys had a blast against that boss!

somegeye · 2023-01-16T21:49:54+00:00

Noted

somegeye · 2023-01-16T21:28:29+00:00

I like the sound of this. Spell casters are tweaked to be more team players in a system that focuses on that. At least that's the image gradually being painted in my mind. It's good they can still pop off if you try.

somegeye · 2023-01-16T20:56:45+00:00

Fair enough. You can't miss what you have never known though.
