    Yeah I don’t like spell slots either. Shadowheart for reason misses all cantrips like fire bolt and sacred flame all the time and I don’t like having to long rest before being able to use the good spells.

      I gave astarion the illithid powers so that he gets advantage and can transform his hit to critical, then I gave him the feat that made his ranged attacks stronger but lowered his chance to hit, which is fine because you get the advantage in a sneak attack. My tactic is to find where to hide him, and sneak attack with a crossbow. At level 4 currently I can get 40 damage with a critical hit.

      But my MC is the dark urge and I have abysmal hit rate suddenly and I have no idea why lol

          Do you mean because premade characters have their own quests? In my opinion it’s the only reason to choose them, I don’t particularly like them otherwise since they stick you into a specific class (except for the dark urge) and would rather make my own character. But I want to see everything 🤷

            I’d say complication inducing because of the Dark Urge’s story specifically. It can make it more difficult to see everything because of… the urges.

              they weren’t very clear in the character creation screen about what the story behind the urge was so… I just ignore them lol. I hope it evolves into a real story and not just “hmm I could cut your hand if I wanted to hmm”
