UA 2020: Subclasses, Part 2 Breakdown
Tonight, at the Pit, Everyone. Gets… A New. Subclass. In the second part of the deviously-named “Subclasses” series of UA drops, we get a bardic college, a cleric domain, and a sorcerous origin. For those of you keeping score at ...
UA 2020: Subclasses, Part 1 Breakdown
New year, new Unearthed Arcana – this time bringing us four new subclasses. We have the barbarian Path of the Beast, the monk Way of Mercy, the paladin Oath of the Watchers, and the warlock Noble Genie Patron. I am ...
Unearthed Arcana: Psionics, Round Four
That’s not the proper name for this UA release, which would be either Fighter, Rogue, and Wizard or PsychicSoulPsionics, but as those are both unhelpful names, you get Psionics, Round Four. This is a new, very 5e take: what if ...
Unearthed Arcana: Cleric, Druid, and Wizard Breakdown
Another UA release dropped today, with subclasses for the cleric (Twilight – not a vampire thing), druid (Wildfire – not a NERF gun), and wizard (Onomancy: divination through names). Not only am I into those concepts, the file name of ...
New Gunslinger Archetype: The Sniper
Week over week, we continue to develop new content for Seas of Vodari and show it off here, both because we like sharing cool stuff with our readers (literally why I started blogging and eventually joined Tribality), and because feedback ...
Unearthed Arcana: Sidekicks Breakdown
Oh hey, this month’s Unearthed Arcana covers something I’ve been asking for and working with in my own writing! That’s neat. It’s handled in a 1-20 class progression format, to make sure your favorite NPCs from the early game can ...
Unearthed Arcana: Of Ships and the Sea Breakdown
This month’s UA article is an substantial 9-page document covering ships, sailing, crews, and ship-related downtime play. Now, obviously, you’ve already purchased Tribality Publishing’s “Naval Combat (5e): Running Sea Encounters for Ships and Monsters,” but I still encourage you to ...
Unearthed Arcana: Dragonmarks Breakdown
Back when I wrote my breakdown of the Wayfinder’s Guide to Eberron, I stayed fairly high-level on studying the dragonmarks. At the time, this was because WGtE is a big document and I wanted to cover it in a single ...
Pathfinder Second Edition Playtest Breakdown, Part Four
After last week’s trifecta of spellcasters, this week I’m back to a trio of warrior-types: the fighter, the monk, and the paladin. By coincidence, this is also a History of the Fighter series entry, though I’ll call it Part 10.5 ...
Pathfinder Second Edition Playtest Breakdown, Part Three
Welcome back to the next section of my deep dive into the Pathfinder playtest rules. This time, we’re tackling the bard and cleric classes and, if time is on our side, the druid as well. No promises – oaths are ...
