    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    True. But that's the same for any other Gish (Valor bard, Eldritch Knight, Bladesinger, ect...). Except you know you will have access to wand of the war mage. While the bonus is limited to an item type, it's no longer limited by rarity. And in my experience, parties where mostly full of...

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    You can use any weapon or wand you create as a focus. Under the level 2 feature.

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    I doubt most players change more than an item per day anyways. Plus the transmute for a 3rd change. It does feel a bit limited with the level 20 feature. If you sacrifice all your items, it takes several days to rebuild them.

    D&D General Full Caster Artificer +

    A few Ideas. 1: Full Slots, expend spell slots for infusions but don't recover them as long as the item exists. I.e. a +1 Armor cost a level 2 slot indefinitely. Cast Hypnotic Pattern and Meteor Swarm if you still have the slots for them. 2: No slots. Get infusion points, and you can use...

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    So they removed the "each of your infusions can be in only one object at a time" line?

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but Transmute doesn't seem to have the "one copy" limit, or time limit. So given days before we enter the volcano, could I give the whole party armor of fire resistance? Or hand out 4 wands of magic missile to commoners defending the town?

    Seems like that was moved to the subclass.

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Can you use up all the charges on an item, then swap to a different one with full charges? Or use it up and then trash it for a spell slot.

    Can the armorer use magic items for their weapons?

    Also, Prestidigitation and Light are on the spell list, so if you want to make a glowing rock that smells like pecans, you still can.

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Then what do you see as the big difference? Or did you want more than a few tweaks? They are getting access to many more things. Wand of Viscid Glob is not a spell they could normally cast, and now can. Or is the main complaint that other people can get boots of the winding path now? I...

    I don't know why you think paper lacks creative uses and narrative potential... But if your party has infinite money, time, and on-demand access to any shop item, then yes. This would be a redundant. But I'll be creativly using my summoned rope to hold something up, walk away, then going to...

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    This part was messed up in the UA and needed fixed. Definitely should be able to make your Armorer weapon magical. I give it a 70% chance it was fixed, but I'll haven't seen it yet.

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    It's similar. You expend your wand of magic missile, and then change it to wand of Web. Count it as half an extra item if you want, but it's still more. Again, there are more possibilities. You have all the old ones, plus huge slew of other magic items. I don't think making something glow 5'...

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    2024 is the 2014 with some quality of life tweaks. They did. Every magic item, up to rare, is now an "infusion". Including all the 2014 ones, and wands, which let you cast spells you normally couldn't. They did, indirectly. Level 6 gets a new features that let you move item charges, slots...

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Best as i can tell from the preview, Forge just gets a few more things. Mainly they added Charge and Transmute Magic Item at 6 for instance. Which will greatly improve flexibility. And recovering Flash of Genius at 14. Could debate if the level 20 feature is better or worse, but I've never...

    Homebrew Looking for Opinions on my New Ranger Archetype

    I don't understand how you activate the level 3 options. Does the magic damage stack with Hunter's Mark? I.e. 1d6+1d8 each attack? Is it once when you hit? Also. I would just use Detect Thoughts. Level 3 You learn the Detect Thoughts spell. In addition, you can expend a use of your...

    The changes i see vs the UA. 6: Charge Magic Item: Restore charges in an item by spending a spell slot. -new Transmute Magic Item: Swap one replicated item for another plan you know. -new 11: Spell Storing Item can use Material component that are consumed. -expected clarification. Not sure...
