Man, they were really hammering in how the _Spells_ are what makes a wizard what they are. I really thought we were going to get more examples of spells, or at very least spell rules, because there really wasn't much change to the base wizard class to talk about. Especially when he talked about the Abjurer, that would have been a perfect time to discuss any potential changes to counterspell, or given their Spell Breaker feature, about how Bonus Action spells will be treated in the rules now.

@feltrix334

They probably didn't talk about Counterspell because it's (probably) nerfed. If they are, in fact, letting you cast two leveled spells in a turn, this definitely would have been the time to break that out. Perhaps you can't cast the bonus action Dispel Magic if you've cast a leveled spell this turn?

Wizards with 2024 subclasses get 63 guaranteed spells now, plus any help the DM might provide. I really like this, I’d always have many doubts when considering which spells to choose CORRECTION - according to ddb, they only get the additional choices of spells when they get access to a new level of spell slot, so it would be 9 additional spells (2 on level 3 and 1 more on each odd level until 17, including) for 53 total spells known. I'd like it better if it were 63, but 53 isn't bad I guess

Illusory Reality has always sounded really fun but its a level 14 feature so I can't expect to play with it for most campaigns, which sucks because it basically turns your Wizard into a Green Lantern or Wile E. Coyote depending on how you play.

I really need to know about counterspell and dispell magic because that abjurer looked insane

Common theme for all of these release videos: WotC sells the hype, Chris manages user expectations.

The Arcane Ward changes are really cool

The martial vs caster is still a thing, but i see some progretions. A thing that i think a lot is: Martials are a lot dependent of the abilities. If the spells was ajusted to use the characters stats and proficient bonuses, theyr progression could be smoothier btweeen the levels. To set an example thats is not overpower but bit too much in early levels, the pass whithout trace spell add +10 in stealth checks. If it adds wis bonus plus proficient bonus in stealth checks, It would start with something like +5 or +6 in the first tear, and ending up with +11 in hight levels. To mention the wizard, inteligence for shield spell adding +3 AC in the 1st level, up to +5 in the 8th. Other spells could be rebalanced to became less overpower but ajusted to been better upcasted. Using the fire ball example, could star in 6d6 damagewith upcast 2d6 per slot level above 3. The 5th spell slot level would still causes 10d6 (9th char level), but less overpower in the when you gain it (5th char level). To end up my point, other spells could be upcasted to bring more options that would make other playestyles surpass the "aways better way to play with this class". It makes the player decides where to invest its slots with more variaty. The Mage Armor Spell, for example, could be upcasted for +1 AC for every 2 levels above 1 (pretty sure that no one would think of uses a 9th level slot to put 17 AC in its wizard, but a 5 spell slot to 15 or something like that could be a good trade that made the aways used spells less frequent). The spells designe would make more variable casters and made theyr progression more in line with martials

The ranger has always been such a slam dunk of a concept. I’m excited to see where they landed with the beast master in particular!

Some calculation for 3 different "tank" subclasses of casters: At level 3: Abjurer wizard: 9 extra hp/long rest or 29 if you waste all resources on abjuration spells. No other defensive features. Moon druid: 36 extra hp/long rest. No ability to add more, also gives AC bonus. Fiend warlock: 6-144 extra hp/long rest. (depending on encounters) At level 6: Abjurer wizard: 16 extra hp/long rest or 60 if you waste all resources on abjuration spells. No other defensive features. Moon druid: 90 extra hp/long rest. Or 270 if you burn slots, also gives AC bonus. Fiend warlock: 10-240 extra hp/long rest. Give bonus to saves. At level 10: Abjurer wizard: 25 extra hp/long rest or 107 if you waste all resources on abjuration spells. No other defensive features. Moon druid: 180 extra hp/long rest. Or 630 if you burn slots, also gives AC bonus. Fiend warlock: 15-360 extra hp/long rest. Give bonus to saves. And give damage resistance of your choice. I also can add twilight domain cleric and clockwork sorcerers stats here, when they reveal cleric and sorcerer next week, but we all know how they will look like.

The real question, of course, is will the 2024 PHB have spells of every spell school of every level? Obviously it's more important they have them for abjuration, divination, evocation, and illusion, but presumably future wizard subclass redos will give similar features for other schools.

Such a joy as an Australian getting to always wake up to your coverage every morning. Listening to your videos is my reward for getting out of bed 😂

I really wished Wizard had taken a page from the Land Druids' eight lands & gave Wizards a "Specialist" subclass to encompass all eight schools, with the generalist Savant, then a specialist branch at 10th & 14th level. That way they can divert resources to making unique Wizard subclasses like Scribes & War.

I am very excited about the Illusionist, and I hope the new clarifications for the illusion spells will be a game changer for the class.

The Arcane Ward change is HUGE. As an abjurer, I basically never cast spells that grant me resistance-- which I very much want to do as an abjuration wizard!-- because the arcane ward meant I couldn't benefit from it.

Always excited every time I see another Treantmonk video. Talk about an overload of Chris! But there’s no such thing as that; keep up the great work!

Yours is definitely my favorite reaction to these videos. Your having taken notes on the actual PHB has of course been a fantastic help to make these videos what they are. I still have to question all these 1/long rest abilities they keep handing out to classes and subclasses. My character sheet is going to be twice as long with things I can barely even use. Definitely isn't going to speed up the table.

My wife played an Owlin Wizard of Illusion. She loved playing her trickster wizard so hearing this is gonna make her wanna play more of that subclass.

With the new Savant feature I’m curious if any of the spell school wizards need to worry about running out of school spells to learn for levels they can access. It might still incentivize wizards to avoid taking too many spells from their school so they still have spells to take with this feature as they level up. It’s still in a better place than the 2014 feature.

So minor illusion to make a cloud of opaque smoke around the target, and then a ranged attack cantrip with advantage since the target can no longer see you and you can see through your own illusions. Seems like a nice low-level buff.

Good afternoon Chris! Hope your surprise work week isn't driving you too crazy haha! Thank you for all your work with these videos! Love hearing your break downs of the info they're giving and the impacts you are seeing! Much love, keep being the awesome you! 💜 Until the next one!

I am disappointed that the Abjurer did not get the same treatment that the the War Domain Cleric recieved (from playtest). Guided Strike and War God's Blessing from 2014 5E War dom were combined into 1 feature. Why wasn't Arcane Ward and Projected Ward combined into 1 feature? It's the same pool of hp whether it affects you or others. I feel like the Abjurer got a raw deal on this. They're effectively a feature short of other subclasses with a similar feature. EDIT: Also, is the bonus action spellcasting rule still in effect in 2024 5E? If it is, then then Dispel Magic as a bonus action is not necessarily all that significant. You get a cantrip or the Dodge or Disengage action.

Probably at some point, but for awhile I'm just going to go through all the new stuff.

I can't wait to see what kind of advice they give DMs to adjudicate illusionist's illusions. Hopefully it's something helpful. I would like to see more people play this subclass and maybe now they will.

Potent Cantrip should also give Int damage to cantrips right at 3rd so their cantrips are at least as potent as Eldritch Blast.

If the new illusionist can cast minor illusion as a BA, we really need to know what the bonus action casting rule is now (honestly not sure if its been said already). Because if it's relaxed to allow levelled spells with BA cast, that's a subtle casted distraction, or even cover, every turn from the illusionist.

I'm currently playing an illusionist in a campaign (2014 version). I just got to level 5, and we've had plenty of weeks where people work, so we may be there for a while (we've also got a planned break to do a one shot after our current quest). If the new handbook is out before I hit level 6, I'm going to show the changes to my DM and hope he lets me swap the lv 6 feature (if not use the whole subclass change). I'll also show him the glossary for illusions, since it feels like the few times I cast them, they barely accomplish anything. That may be partially because we've yet to encounter guards/etc. to give good opportunities for illusions to solve the problem, but I also think the DM just has some trouble buying into them in general. All our battles have been in large open rooms with little to no obstructions, so I can't even use the environment to my advantage with illusions. And the fighting illusions will be a big help for me in battle. One of the other players clearly wants me to take fireball, but I told him I'll need to set up an in world reason first, since it doesn't fit my vibe. I was recently contemplating asking the DM if I could re-skin it as psychic damage to have is be illusory, but I assume that's going to require hefty nerfs for balance, since that damage type is stronger than just swapping fire for cold or lightning. But depending on the new modify feature, I might be able to apply that to various spells to keep my vibe (assuming the DM let's me incorporate all of that into the 2014 version).

Ohh that illusion glossary was sorely needed. I need a RAW explanation of tactile illusions, i really hope they have it.

Which in turn manifested in 3/3.5 as (Greater) Shadow Evocation. I miss these spells somewhat, although spellcasting is already less restrictive now that you don't need to prepare each slot, so its utility is diminished from that era.

Well I’m definitely using the playtest version of memorize spell. It actually lets you use all of the non-combat utility spells you want to take but don’t prepare, so you’ll take fewer combat focused spells and not feel bad about it.
