You just need to change it so that the damage also only works while in a tavern. Maybe even add a little bit of other boosts like higher AC or something while in a tavern, just to make it more hilarious.

And then if you really want to mess with them have them run into a tavern in the bad guys fortress where all of his minions go drink, and really they are just a bunch of rumrunners.

man the Abused feat is next level dark humor and beautiful in it's own way, bludgeoning damage resistance because you're used to the beatings, psychic damage triggers your trauma of emotional abuse and stuns you because of it, but overcoming it makes you snap and fight your agressor even harder while disregarding your own safety just to make it go away, you already saw the worst monster as a child so you're not easily frightened, but years of abuse and depreciation made you emotionaly vulnerable to sweet words so you're easily charmed. You made it to adulthood and overcame your trauma gaining strength in the process but the scars still remains, it's kinda poetic

Honestly, there is a way to make this feat work. I would remove the dex increase and requirements, it isn’t really needed, but I would restrict it to the monk class. Keep the advantage on dex and strength saving throws, reword the flurry of blows reaction to “Whenever an opponent hits you with a melee attack, you can make 2 unarmed melee attacks against them as a reaction”, Keep the effect immunities, Keep the AC increase (although I would make it a flat 5 increase) Then add the downside that you can only use it for one minute per long rest. After that minute is up, you are incapacitated until you take a short rest.

@ChiralCentre3366Ай бұрын
To be fair, they never say how fast "an extremely fast rate" is, but depending on the group and DM I'm sure you could get a fair bit out of a learning speed bonus. Got a day or two of downtime and want to research about an area/person/monster? Well, I learn stuff really fast now, yo DM what did I find out? It's still not good... but it's not net 0, I guess?

The one use I can see is to bank a feat for later, so you can get two high level feats instead of one low and one high level one.
@HevachАй бұрын
The attunement thing is because there's feats that give a bonus per attuned item, so one more improves that bonus even if the item does nothing. Advanced Programming would make sense if most feats had level requirements (which was added and then removed from the 6e play test). By delaying a feat you can get an extra one above the next level gate.

If i were to balance and flavor ultra instinct to be fair, id go: ---- "Your body has been trained to work and react even to unseen threats. Your body knows to keep you safe, even more than your own mind." Attributes: "+1 to dex to a maximum of 20" "When an attack is made against you while you are unconcious, downed, blinded, or other scenarios where sight is impaired on the enemy(s), the enemy must roll higher than half your ac + your dex modifier. If they fail this roll, you are made aware of the attack on you, and you are allowed 5 feet of movement. If possible" ----- This makes it like a mini spider sense when youre in a bad situation, and gives you some extra defenses during those bad crucial situations. And I think it would be useful at all stages in the game.

Honestly if you want an Ultra Instinct thing in dnd, you should make it a high level optional feature for Monks (like the ones from Tasha's) and make them spend a bunch of Ki to gain +5 to AC and Dex saves, but roll a Con save at the end or become stunned
@tobiasbayer4866Ай бұрын
I would have it be a sort of avatar state thing where it only activates if you are about to be downed. Then all of your remaining Ki points get used up, you remaint at 1 hp, and you are in ultra instinct a number of turns depending on how much Ki you spent. Works once per long rest and is mandatory. Meaning you cant not use it if you go down to 0 and have it available. Could even add a bit if exhaustion after it wears off.
@scragarАй бұрын
@tobiasbayer4866 Maybe get rid of the immunity to a bunch of stuff and instead have the autonomic fighting work regardless(so you can dodge/counter even when unconcious, but you are still unconcious and can't choose to move/act). That way it's more like spider-man's body moving without his soul against Dr Strange, very cool to describe but clearly very situational and less useful than retaining full control.
@tobiasbayer4866Ай бұрын
@@scragar True thats a good point. Maybe combine both? Have one be an activateable combat ability, maybe while at low health, and one be a passive for when you get downed. Although at that point it would do way to much for a feat and would maybe be better off as just a monk subclass.

Feat: "Get me a drink." One time, at any moment during this campaign, you may tell the DM to get you a drink. The DM has 5 seconds to leave the table, holding only what they can carry, immediately followed by an unlimited amount of time in which to bring you a drink. The drink must be at least 8 ounces of factory-sealed liquid meant for human consumption that has a Nutrition Facts label, and it cannot already be on the table. Until the DM sets this drink standing upright on the table, or on top of things already on the table, you become the Temporary DM, with all the powers of the DM. You may not remove the table or otherwise cause it to be unable to support the new drink. Once the drink is on the table, or if you or any players get up from the table before the DM's return, you immediately cease being the Temporary DM. Anything that happened during your time as Temporary DM must be treated, in-game, as real events, possibly by divine or otherwise otherworldly intervention, and can be either explained or left unexplained by the DM however they will. The events cannot, however, be ret-conned or treated as if they did not happen (e.g., saying it was "all in a dream"). For all intents and purposes, the events must be treated as if they actually happened, and gameplay must then continue normally (if possible). As a last resort, during the session this feat was used, the DM may choose to call for one immediate majority vote as to whether to reset the game world to its status before you used this feat. You are the tiebreaker vote. If the game is reset in this way, you regain your usage of this feat.

I like the idea of the aimbot feat, but it'd need reworks. Something like: "You no longer roll dice when making ranged or spell attacks. Instead, the attack automatically hits, but only deals half (or minimum) damage to the target". That way it's not a feat you take for crazy damage, but for if you have on-hit effects you really want to connect with. Could possibly make it a toggle too, to effectively turn any ranged attack or spell into a sort of Magic Missile at the cost of damage.
