That way, if a caster had heavy armor proficiency they wouldn't need to stress about their strength score. Twilight: Ignore the strength requirement for heavy armor maybe. Roaring: Advantage on initiative checks but enemies are not surprised. Retaliation: Maybe make it cost a reaction. Nimbleness: Have it function like the Medium Armor Master feat. Seeing as how Will saves are now spread across all 3. Mindarmor: Maybe extend it to a Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma Save. Menacing: Trigger on a melee attack maybe? Manifester: See how Psionics shakes out after the UA playtest feedback. Ghostward: You gain resistance to necrotic damage and incorporeal creatures cannot pass through a space you occupy. If you are proficient with a Dexterity skill check, you may add your proficiency bonus twice.Īnchoring: up it to 10ft movement, 5ft seems a bit weak for 1 attunement slot.īalance: Advantage on saving throws against being knocked prone.Įnergy Defence: Scale damage v rarity off an equivalent scroll/wand of Hellish Rebuke Incorporeal movement is quite limited.Īgility: Add 1/2 proficiency bonus to Dexterity Checks with which you are not proficient.Īgility, Improved: Add your proficiency bonus to Dexterity Checks with which you are not proficient.Īgility, Greater: Add your proficiency bonus to Dexterity Checks with which you are not proficient.

(1 - 2 weapon is magical but +0, 3 - 5 weapon is +1, 6 - 8 weapon is +2, 9 weapon is +3). While a spell is stored in this weapon it gains a magical enhancement equal to 1/3 of the spell slot used to cast the stored spell rounded down. The spell must be of a slot you can cast and have prepared. Spell Storing: During a short rest you can store a single spell in this weapon for future use. This is just a rough idea i had, needs a good deal of polishing. And when a fire elemental takes damage from this weapon it must succeed on a constution saving throw DC 14 or take an additional 2d8 force damage. Morphing: I like the flavour of this, something like this could be sweet for moon druids, a magical weapon that shifts with them so their claws/teeth take on a metal sheen giving their attacks a +1 to hit/damage and options to do more.Īquan and others: 'This weapon is anathema to denizens of the Elemental Plane of Fire, and any being that has connections to this plane may also feel it's bite' You have advantage attacking creatures connected to the elemental plane of fire.
