Minor Update

Post date: Feb 22, 2018 12:18:42 AM

Unfortunately, I've been busy with moving house, finding a new job at my new location, and running my own D&D game, so I haven't been able to put much time into this project lately. I do intend to continue with it once things have settled down, however.

On the upside, I had a chance to test out some of the Tengu Reporter class in a game recently. Unfortunately, it was in a one-off, where we fought in an arena, so I didn't get to test out much. However, it became evident that needing to charge the camera was too much of a cost for simply getting Sneak Attack on all attacks, particularly when this ability never came into play as my allies were always next to whatever I was targeting anyway.

Thus, I have made it so that the Reporter no longer has to charge their camera, and can use a bonus action to get Sneak Attack. This also makes Shoot First circumstantially more powerful, as I had been finding that I had to use the Shoot First action to charge the camera. However, this was in a game where a new fight would begin immediately after the old one; in a more typical game, I would imagine that you would have time between fights to charge it.
