Dungeons & Dragons: Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything (D&D Rules Expansion book): 1 (Dungeons & Dragons )

Product Information

You’ve undergone rigorous martial training in your downtime, though not enough to become a full-fledged fighter. Instead, you’ve learned how to fight with a particular weapon, allowing you to gain a Fighting Style from the fighter class. Don’t forget that there are a handful of brand-new Fighting Styles in Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything including options for fighting bare-handed, fighting blind, and fighting with thrown weapons. Gunner At higher levels, you and your party gain a boost to initiative rolls. You also can use your reaction to deal force damage when you or a nearby ally succeeds on intelligence, wisdom, or charisma saves. At Level 20 you gain truesight and a slew of benefits batting extraplanar beings. Ranger – Fey Wanderer Telekinetic jumps out to me. A boost to your stats like Fey or Shadow Touched, invisible Mage Hand with no verbal or somatic components, and you can telekinetically push people 5 feet as a bonus action. There is a lot you can do with this, and it's especially great on a class who doesn't typically have a lot to do with their bonus action, who can now just keep pushing poeple around, into spells etc. A creature can also willingly let themselves be pushed, so you can also use this to push your allies out of harm's way.

Creature type. You are a humanoid. You determine your appearance and whether you resemble any of your kin. How exactly do the rules on changing your subclass from Tasha's Cauldron of Everything work? How do they interact with one another (or not)? Crusher movement is once per turn, so the bit about monks getting extra mileage isnt very accurate.The DM might also require an expenditure of money to pay for training, [...] This cost might be accompanied by a quest of some sort.

The Circle of Stars draws on the natural magic of starlight. Understanding the patterns the stars make has opened your eyes to the magic of the skies. The theme of this class is largely based on navigating using the stars. You create a star map that can be a spellcasting focus and it grants you new cantrips. Waiting for a level up is how I would first express this to the player. If they felt that was too long to wait, I would of course see how we could work a transition even sooner. What about rogues? The final subsection, " Sudden Change" says characters could have an immediate subclass change. Does this mean immediately when a character would gain a new subclass feature, or at any time at all?The sister feat to Telekinetic, above, the Telepathic feat gives you the ability to speak to other creatures with your mind. Your powers of telepathy allow you to communicate in a language you know, and to read their thoughts. Great for communicating secrets silently with your party members in tense scenarios—or for spooking patrolling guards and learning your foes’ deepest secrets!

These are optional rules. As it says at the beginning of Chapter 1, one of the options featured in the chapter is (p. 7; emphasis mine): There is an initial introductory paragraph under the section heading, and then two sections under subheadings. Textually / Structurally it would appear that the first paragraph contains the general rules, and then the two subheadings offer contrasting implementations. Thus, the design and layout of the rules imply that changing your subclass can occur only at level breaks when you gain a new subclass feature; that is a hard requirement for invoking this rule. Once the rule is in play, the GM then selects from two contrasting options for implementing it - will it cost resources ("Training time"; time, gold, a quest), or not ("Sudden change")? The book also reprints the original three artificer subclasses from Eberron as well. Wrapping Up Our Tashas Cauldron of Everything New Subclasses Guide The oath of the Watcher is focused on protecting the mortal realm from extraplanar creatures. Their tenets are vigilance, loyalty, and discipline. Much like clerics with undead, these paladins can turn aberrations, celestials, elementals, fey, and fiend using channel divinity.This interesting archetype is based on the concept of a barbarian that is infused with the power of wild magic. Due to the barbarian’s rage, their emotional state makes them susceptible to the forces of natural magic. I would ditch the limitation of " you can change your subclass when you would normally gain a new subclass feature." You also gain the use of psychic blades; essentially soul-powered daggers that can be thrown or used as finesse weapons. As you level these blades grow in power, and you gain other options like invisibility. Sorcerer – Aberrant Mind
