Path of Ragnarök (5e Subclass)
|
This page is of questionable balance. Reason: Off to a fantastic start with resistance to all damage at 3rd level and damage immunity at 6th level. Then... uh... rapid and unlimited "physical" and "mental" "attribute" increases? Some of the terms used below are D&D terms and others seem to be from some other game? ("stackable temporary health", "temporary life", "check cd"?). This needs... a _lot_ of work to be usable
