This domain is pretty self-explanatory. Peace clerics oversee peace treaties and calm conflicts between warring nations. Their spell list is full of support options like sanctuary, beacon of hope, and greater restoration.

The DM and players can work together to decide exactly how this works. A player may indicate their desire to change their subclass, and the DM can then work this out with the player, explaining how they can spend their downtime re-training and practising so that when they reach level X, they complete their training and acquire the features of their new subclass. I believe that you should always attempt to understand the rules as written first. Looking at this section of TGtE, we find that... At higher levels, you and your party gain a boost to initiative rolls. You also can use your reaction to deal force damage when you or a nearby ally succeeds on intelligence, wisdom, or charisma saves. At Level 20 you gain truesight and a slew of benefits batting extraplanar beings. Ranger – Fey Wanderer I present rogues as a use case for why I would break from the guidance given in the book. Rogue subclasses have a huge gap in features. Once a rogue gets their first subclass features at 3rd level, they don't get another until 9th level.

Anyone studying to be a Psi Warrior would do well to embrace the power of telekinesis, the ability to move things with your mind—and even use that power to shove creatures with your mental force. Combine this feat with a variant human who gains a feat at 1st-level to represent a character born with latent psychic power! Telepathic

Also, if you decide to take one of these feats and ultimately decide you want to multiclass into that class later, you can keep this feat and just have a few extra spells. However, if you want to diversify your skillset, you can also ask your Dungeon Master if they'll allow you to swap this feat out when you gain your first level in that class. They could let you trade your feat for any other feat, or for two +1 bonuses to any ability score. Chef This combat-centric domain centers on the dual premises of the restorative nature of sleep and the need to destroy the dark things that lurk in nightmares. These clerics gain proficiencies with martial weapons and heavy armor, and they can share their newfound darkvision with allies. Your channel divinity is an interesting buff that allows creatures close to you to gain temporary HP or end the charmed or frightened effect. The radius of this effect grows at higher levels. Druid – Circle of StarsHow exactly do the rules on changing your subclass from Tasha's Cauldron of Everything work? How do they interact with one another (or not)? We start with a new artificer specialist: the armorer! As the name implies, this subclass is all about using your armor as a conduit for arcane magic. Using your smith’s tools, you can add a variety of buffs. At level three you can ignore armor strength requirements and use the armor as a spellcasting focus. You can also remove the armor as an action, and it can’t be removed from you against your will. It even replaces missing limbs!

The central aspect of this class is the third level ability Wild Surge, which causes wild magic effects to occur when you rage. At higher levels you can use your connection to wild magic to help allies recoup spell slots and eventually control your wild magic effects. Despite the name, this doesn’t allow you any spellcasting abilities. Bard – College of Creation The second scenario is when I would use the "Sudden Change" guidance. If we are nearing a level up, and my player says "I want to change subclasses", I don't have time to work in significant plot build-up to the change, so I will opt for something like is suggested in this section at the next level up. The sister feat to Telekinetic, above, the Telepathic feat gives you the ability to speak to other creatures with your mind. Your powers of telepathy allow you to communicate in a language you know, and to read their thoughts. Great for communicating secrets silently with your party members in tense scenarios—or for spooking patrolling guards and learning your foes’ deepest secrets! The final subsection, " Sudden Change" says characters could have an immediate subclass change. Does this mean immediately when a character would gain a new subclass feature, or at any time at all? The book also reprints the original three artificer subclasses from Eberron as well. Wrapping Up Our Tashas Cauldron of Everything New Subclasses Guide

Downtime and Collaboration

The next subsection, " Training Time", goes on about how changing a subclass might take time, money, and/or a quest. How does this work with the previous paragraph's rule of only changing subclasses when a character gains a new subclass feature? For example, if the character needs time to train or complete a quest, I'm not sure how you could align that with gaining a new subclass feature. The College of Creation centers on the “Song of Creation,” the primeval harmonies that pre-exist the known world. These bards draw on this song using art, music, and poetry.

More psionics! this time, you even get a spellcaster with some psionic powers. the Aberrant Mind sorcerer gains psionic spells and telepathic speech at level 1. At level 6, you can use sorcery points to cast a spell instead of slots. As you level, you gain resistance to psychic damage and advantage against being charmed or frightened. Feats and multiclassing are both optional rules presented in the Player’s Handbook that allow a player to give their character gain powers normally inaccessible to their class, and to give their character narrative depth and nuance through new mechanics. Some gaming groups use both optional rules for maximum customizability, while other groups allow one, the other, or neither, to keep their game simpler or more focused.You also gain the use of psychic blades; essentially soul-powered daggers that can be thrown or used as finesse weapons. As you level these blades grow in power, and you gain other options like invisibility. Sorcerer – Aberrant Mind The higher level features include the ability to turn the dead into healing or damage dealing spectral fires. You can also sacrifice your spirit when you hit zero HP and regain half your hit points instead. Fighter – Psi Warrior I would ditch the limitation of " you can change your subclass when you would normally gain a new subclass feature." Waiting for a level up is how I would first express this to the player. If they felt that was too long to wait, I would of course see how we could work a transition even sooner. What about rogues?
