    That Mixed Magics feature is actually insane, being able to multiclass casters with a lot less opportunity cost! For better and for worse, also a buff to non-caster Feydark Illusionist builds. Max out those caster levels for those low level spells from like Favored Soul etc.

    Wow, now i see it, been trying to figure it out. ES warlock, there is the immunity bypass. Cast your elemental spell every 10 seconds, preferably a good aoe. Chain in your light spells, watch everything disintegrate around you. Add in visanti daggers, and the arcane warrior feat, and then wild magic for the cherry on top. The synergy…

      Kind of. Elves in DND lore basically tend to take on aspects of their environment. So elves that live in the sea become sea elves and elves that live in the forest become wood elves. So Eladrin are just elves that live in the feywild and have their fey nature beefed up a bit.
      Its kind of like different flavors of Pepsi and Eladrin are Pepsi Max.

  • @Feyrabrand

    I like them. But honestly kinda disappointed we got another elf. A while ago they had a poll for new races and I’m pretty sure kobolds won. With this being the year of the dragon and such I think getting kobolds would have been flavorful. Give a kobold shaman as An iconic and I think lots of people would have been excited.

    • @Strimtom
      @Strimtom  Před 2 měsíci +3

      To be fair, the poll was in 2017 (which is a while ago, but like 7 years is really far back) and we got dragonborn, which is at least dragon related.
      I think if the expansion wasn't in a very elf centric area we probably would have gotten something else.

They literally could have left the visuals the same and change references to spring/summer/autumn/winter to air/fire/earth/water and changed nothing else in the design and called it Genasi and people complaining about it being "another elf" would have been quiet.
      It really doesn't matter to me that it's called an elf or not. It's more about how it looks and how it's designed. I think it's a good addition in that regard. I do wish they'd have called it genasi just to avoid the "another elf" comments from everyone since it's effectively the exact same thing, but it looks like it will be fun to run through some TR's on these.

      There's also some serious game-mechanism issues, if you think in terms of "original" Krynn (equivalent to AD&D 3.5 _without_ Eberron **at best** ... building AP trees from the ground up to merge Krynn into DDO? Designers being burnt out in droves ... and THEN consider the whole cosmologic basis of the wizard segmentations. YIKES!).

      @@middleagedgamers7750 You can do some fun things with lesser caster classes though (like bard). I honestly think 4 WM/16 bard for stormsingers is going to be the go to. That adds immunity stripping without losing caster levels due to mixed magic and you still get 2 level 6 spells (max for bard). I honestly don't know if you need more than 2 level 6 spells as a stormsinger.
      Warlocks also get their top level spells at level 16. I'm not sure if it works as well with different primary attributes, but artificers and alchemists get their top level spells at level 15, Paladin and Ranger get theirs at 14. I think people will be finding some interesting multiclass combos with those.
      Warlocks can benefit a lot from the immunity stripping.
      The big benefit to the mixed magic feat is for when your wild magic sorcerer is your primary class. It lets you throw two levels of pretty much any other class in without gimping your sorceror spellcasting. You can still use meteor swarm or iceberg and have 2 FVS levels for close wounds, 2 thief or monk levels for evasion, 2 arti levels for rune arms, 2 AOS levels for eldrich chain , 1 wizard for a metamagic feat and added hp available from eldrich warrior/pale master.1 barbarian for movement speed etc.
      Lots of splash ideas are now on the table for a sorc.
