    An important note is that when you go into your vessel, your vessel doesn't go anywhere. So your ring/urn/lamp will be there on the ground, and can be destroyed. It *also* can be carried away, meaning someone like a rogue or familiar can bring the ring with them and have you or your entire party infiltrate an area. Especially great with people that can fly/teleport, as it allows them to bring the party to otherwise inaccessible locations.

    Nope, there's not actual limit on short rest exept for the hours at day existing and while there a lapse of time in between where you do something 'not allowed' for a short rest, like doing a not-so-light activity taking an action of some sort, attacking, etc, anything normally not allowed as part of a rest will divede a longer rest into a shorter rest (need 1 hour min), but a short rest can last even like a long rest for the character, usually hapenning when players wanna take the day off but cant make a long rest since is allowed only once per day for the benefits, so all extra time is a longer short rest Still, having someone take your vessel for 10 minutes and getting out would benefit the whole party, a full spelled warlock is always useful

    I played a campaign as an Air Genasi Warlock with a Genie pact. The genie in question was a Djinn that had only just reached the Noble rank. My DM decided that the Djinn in question was actually my character's biological father that had felt guilty that his job as one of the heads of the Elemental Plane of Air had taken all his time away from his family and this is his way of trying to make up for lost time (Full on Goofy Movie but magic). RP wise, it worked real well.

Yeah you're the sneakiest class in the game. You can't do any of this awesome stuff with pact of the tome. I think yes it can do something that the other pact can do but not nearly as well. Also for a lock if you wanna mess up some stuff you could see and hear through your familiar, cast darkness on it and give it your action, bonus action, reaction and have it basically be a flying unkillable force of darkness with almost everything having disadvantage on it and resistance to basically every form of damage in the game. And casts using your spellcasting modifyer... And if something hits it with dispell magic... Or someone can see through magical darkness, It just goes invisible, turns into a spider or raven and escapes with some luck.

    Seaming works quite nice with short rest slots for the Warlock. You can start your day giving the entire party disguise self. This will naturally replace Mask of Many faces I think. Fantastic for infiltrating an enemy city for example. That 8 hour duration is nice. Also that level 6 feature is concentration less flight, so that cannot be understated in usefulness and survivability. The Dao genie's wrath will also work with the Crusher feat in Tasha's providing even more pushing and moving, we have a real Earth Bender here.

    The level 10 feature of genie warlock is indeed a leomunds tiny hut. However, if you use it in tandem with the warlock's find familiar pact (choosing the imp) you now have a mobile leomund's tiny hut that can travel up to your familiar's fly speed invisibly. You can use it as a spy tool to spy on things as a group, Get high ground vantage points, Bring your group up to the castle's open window where the big baddie resides. You can all also have safe long rests inside. If youre a warlock thats either making scrolls or preforming research, One of your team mates can carry you while you work on creating objects. The imagination is limitless with it. Id say this class is more utility than it is offensive. As the genie's wrath feature is only your proficiency mod that occurs one on each of your turns on a single attack roll. Limited wish has some options to it

    The only issue ive come across in my own playthrough, is that the ring is a magic item with an extradimensional space, and a focus at that. This causes some great issues with having a bag of holding. The moment you put the wrong hand inside of the bag, or enter the ring with your bag on your person, you sign up for a magical detour to the Astral plane. The only seeable work around for this is that. You bring chests into your ring and put your items there. Its a cylinder with a 40-ft diameter, putting chests and furniture inside shouldnt be an issue. The only issue with that is you only have access to your ring one time a day, and if you lose your ring, you either go to great lengths to recover it. Or preform a ceremonial ritual for 1 hour to get your ring back, WITHOUT anything inside lf it.

    @@epazote4204 Its a class feature that grants you a magical item. In the descriptive wording of the ring, as written in Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, it states the following: "Your patron gifts you *a magical vessel* that grants you a measure of the genie's power..." This defines it as a magic item regardless of the form it takes. Now moving onto bag of holdings wording from the Player's Handbook: "Placing a bag of holding inside an "extradimensional space created by a Heward's handy haversack, portable hole, *or similar item* instantly destroys both items and opens a gate to the Astral Plane..." With the information that is given, we realize that what the aformentioned feature for the genie lock does, is gives you a magic item with custom properties. It is still however a magic item, that holds an extradimensional space within it. And a bag of holding interacts with magical items similar to portable hole and handy haversack, hence the clause "*or similar to*". -If- the magical vessel had specific wording that has "*you cast a spell* to create a extradimensional space..." , as with Mordenkainen's Magnificent Mansion, or Rope Trick; then such an effect would not occur as it is a spell and not a magic item similar to that of a bag of holding, portable hole, or handy haversack. As for the description of the abilities themselves it is dictioned as follows: "As an action, you can magically vanish and enter your vessel, which remains in the space you left. The interior of the vessel is an extradimensional space in the shape of a 20-foot-radius cylinder, 20 feet high, and resembles your vessel." In summary, it is a magical vessel (i.e. magic item) that operates similarly to bag of holding. It can be detected as a magic item as well, for the purposes of detect magic. It is not a spell that is cast, but a item imbued with a magic property that is in constant effect. As such, it follows the same downfalls and effects as any other magic item when in antimagic field as well as magic item interactions that contain an extradimensional space. If you wish to homebrew differently, anyone is welcome to.

If you want to ignore those parts of the exerpts, as i said earlier, feel free to homebrew and allow what you will, but the official printings state as such. Going between RAW and RAI is moot. As the rule books are more of a guidlines, but RAW has been pretty indicative of stating similar item, and that this feature is pretty much your patron gifting you a magical object. From DMG p. 246 (which, by the way, is where Crawford tells us to look at if we want to see "What counts as an object in D&D") or here in the DM's basic rules: "For the purpose of these rules, an object is a discrete, *inanimate item* like a window, door, sword, book, table, chair, or stone, not a building or a vehicle that is composed of many other objects." So yes the Magical Vessel, is an object that is an inanimate item. As it it magical in nature that makes this a magic item by the definitions set forth by tasha's description of labeling this magical vessel as a tiny object.

You can stack this with Hex if you like, and it also stacks with Genie's Wrath. My warlock is for a pirate-themed exploration campaign, so it's nice to know that the utility spells like Create Food and Water will come in handy. I also took the Marid patron (mostly for flavor reasons, because we're spending the majority of the campaign island-hopping by boat... so a lot of time on the ocean), and Control Weather might save our ship someday if there's a storm.

The strongest in-game uses-- portable glyphs, or filling it full of explosives or corrosives and destroying the bottle with a ranged attack-- are probably too cheesy to get away with in most games.

    To me, Seeming's best use is infiltration. Think of it like Mass Disguise Self, where you can now have the entire party pose as allies to an enemy group to allow the party to get into places they'd have difficulty getting into as a group otherwise.

    It's just a matter of choosing the right spell, a clerics level 6 heal spell takes one action and heals 70 HP. That could be a life saver. The big thing is that it can come from ANY spell list, so while you have to research casting times you get a huge selection to choose from, you just have to write down the ones the best fit your character; the ones he or she would think of.

    Hey i really liked your video! One note tho, is that trance ability makes it so the character only needs to trance for 4 hours, being fully awake for the other 4, but they still need to take the full 8 hours to get the benefits of the long rest

  • @RichMerry

    “Elves don’t need to sleep. Instead, they meditate deeply, remaining semiconscious, for 4 hours a day. (The Common word for such meditation is “trance.”) While meditating, you can dream after a fashion; such dreams are actually mental exercises that have become reflexive through years of practice. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that a human does from 8 hours of sleep.” From the players handbook dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/rules-answers-september-2015 Does the Trance trait allow an elf to finish a long rest in 4 hours? The intent is no. The Trance trait does let an elf meditate for 4 hours and then feel the way a human does after sleeping for 8 hours, but that isn’t intended to shorten an elf’s long rest. A long rest is a period of relaxation that is at least 8 hours long. It can contain sleep, reading, talking, eating, and other restful activity. Standing watch is even possible during it, but for no more than 2 hours; maintaining heightened vigilance any longer than that isn’t restful. In short, a long rest and sleep aren’t the same thing; you can sleep when you’re not taking a long rest, and you can take a long rest and not sleep. Here’s what this all means for an elf. An elf can spend 4 hours in a trance during a long rest and then has 4 additional hours of light activity. While an elf’s companions are snoozing, the elf can be awake and engaged in a variety of activities, including carving a lovely trinket, composing a sonnet, reading a tome of ancient lore, attempting to remember something experienced centuries before, and keeping an eye out for danger. The Trance trait is, ultimately, meant to highlight the otherworldly character of elves, not to give them an edge in the game. That all said, if you’re the DM and you decide to let Trance shorten an elf’s long rest, you’re not going to break the game. You are making a world-building choice if you do so. You’re deciding that elves, on a global scale, are ready to reenter a fight before anyone else, that they heal faster than most humanoids, and that they regain their magical energy faster. Such a choice would make sense in a world where elves are the dominant race, where they not only live longer than others, but also recover faster” So you can get the benefit of a full long rest if you rest for 4 consecutive hours, but it’s up to the Dm if the trance is just for roleplay or if it has mechanical consequences. I hope that answers your question.

    I would love to make a video about the different wizard schools. Short comment tips are... Your keystone ability is at 6th level, so it’s all about working towards that. Find familiar (1st) and dragons breath (2nd) is a good combo at level 3. The sapping sting cantrip from the explorers guide to wildmount is great for disabling an enemy. Also false life is a good defence spell to take.

    Everyone saying "find familiar" but forget the other inclusion from TCE at the same time and i think is thought on this pact: the talisman You could make that your talisman IS your vessel, since the object is given by your patron, so, it can be both and replaceced at the same time if destroyed, which with the lv12 invocation allow you to teleport to the person with the talisman or even protect the person or creature wearing it, you coul even give it as a gift for someone to spy, or get a partner to do it for you, but get inside your vessel first so you can get to an enemy base, escorted by the enemy himself Talisman x genie works very good, still, other pacts are good too, no need of you having the familiar, it can be another party member familiar or pet Now, heres an idea, you get your extradimensional powers from the genie, which come from the plane between planes, so you multiclass into ranger horizon walker, you are a planeswalker and your boss is a cresture from inbetween the planes, maybe wonderland where logic didnt work The lv3 extra damage from the horizon walker at first hit + genie extra damage on first hit + hubtersmark/favored foe combine perfectly And if wanting more planewalker powers, combine ranger into level 11, where you can teleport at will before each attack, or get warlok inte getting Far Step, for a longer teleport each round (lv 10, so no ranger lv11 for this one)

    2 notes early on bc you showed some massive misunderstandings of warlocks: their spell slots are not mainly for utility, with so few and always up casting you absolutely want things that scale up and ideally last a whole combat but you aren't gonna use spells like misty step or detect magic past their proper level or with your pact slots when u could gain them in another way. Pact slots are for upcastable damage spells, on level combat utility, and buffs that last all combat or longer, like hex. Furthermore the wish spell on the spell list. That is FAR from a cornerstone or keystone ability, to the extent that I have to question if you know what those terms MEAN. wish is a trap spell. As you cannot use your lv 9 spell 'slot' (mystic Arcanum) for anything other than your selected 1 spell of 9th level and you can only switch these things out on levelup, if you get a wish backfire that disables you from ever casting it again, youre now a high level caster who's effectively had their 9th level slot DELETED. no warlock should EVER take wish.
