Talk:Diopsid (5e Race)

From D&D Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

To avoid locking this page for edit warring, take into consideration the following:

  • Since the diopsid can at least speak, they are not barred from fulfilling verbal components of spells. Thus this would not bar them from spellcaster classes. The reading and writing thing is kind of disadvantageous but it can be an alternate way to show how dumb something is without ability score decreases. The lore also corroborates this
  • "Free action" is 4e terminology. You can just say "with no action necessary." For something like short-ranged luminescence, I don't think that's a horrible balance.
  • Note: The extra arms might need some extra caveats. While it does say it supports the other arms, there is nothing stopping them from holding weapons on their own really. It needs to be properly stated if the support arms themselves can or cannot use shields and weapons on their own. Ignoring two-handed also lets the diopsid dual-wield two greatswords at a time. You should amend it so it has similar constraints like the Marilith (5e Race).--Yanied (talk) 14:43, 20 November 2020 (MST)

Conditions have been set on how the lower arms can be used. Since greatswords are not light they cannot normally be dual-wielded in an attack, although two weapons can still be held just like other races can do. I didn't consider though that the Dual Wielder feat would let a diopsid dual-wield greatswords in combat. That's now been fixed. --CookieLink (talk) 16:20, 20 November 2020 (MST)

Looks good.--Yanied (talk) 21:53, 25 November 2020 (MST)
