I agree, It is much easier to explain to a player that a natural 20 improves the outcome of the roll by 1 step and a natural 1 reduces the outcome of the roll by one step. This boils down to giving a +10 bonus for a nat 20 and a -10 penalty for a nat 1

we learned that you have to be very careful with your animal companion. they have a very low AC and with most level 0 creatures having a +6 to attack, they seem to get crit quite a lot. That in conjunction with slightly lower hitpoints lead to a large amount of healing the animals.

my players started leaving their animal companions back for the first round of combat so that the enemies would be engaged and not focus on them. once the enemies are occupied, the animal companions could get in for flanking and triggering the Work Together state.

Great work thanks for making this public

I have started a spell list google sheet.
So far i have added all of the spells from the four spell lists.
I intend to fill in the rest of the columns with data from the play test rule book. Descriptions, tags, and other data is currently missing, but i still think it is useful as is so i am posting it.

Creating this thread as a place to publish things i am confused about.

my first confusion point is

Page 48
Debilitating Bomb
Should the trigger be quick alchemy on a bomb instead of an elixir?

anybody else spot any Potential errors?

With a demonic bloodline, is the only way to gain access to a heightened disintegrate to use one of my two spontaneous heighten slots on disintegrate?
(assuming disintegrate is on the Arcane spell list and i only have access to the Divine spell list, therefore i can not take a heightened disintegrate as a normal spell known)

This is how the structure of magic is coming together in my head
what do you think of this model?

Imagine a d4

Each face of the d4 represents a Magical Tradition
Each edge of the d4 represents a Class
Each point of the d4 represents an Anti-Node

Wizard is the Edge between the Material and Mental Faces
Cleric is the Edge between the Spiritual and Vital Faces
Druid is the Edge between the Material and Vital Faces
Bard is the Edge between the Mental and Vital Faces

Summoner is the Edge between the Material and Spiritual Faces
Oculist is the Edge between the Mental and Spiritual Faces

Each point is opposite to a Face
The point opposite the Spiritual Face is the Soulless Node
Wizards, Bards, and Druids are connected to this Node

The point opposite the Vital Face is the Lifeless Node
Wizards, Summoners, and Occultists are connected to this Node

The point opposite the Mental Face is the Mindless Node
Druids, Summoners, and Clerics are connected to this Node

The point opposite the Material Face is the Formless Node
Clerics, Occultists and Bards are connected to this Node

Bottom View from Vital Face
the other faces recede behind the vital face, but are mentioned here

{spiritual face}

....[Mindless Node]..-----Cleric----- [Formless]
