Talk:Arcaedia (5e Race)

Hello. I will fully acknowledge that this is a first project and I am open to suggestions once I get more of the page uploaded. If you have any advice or suggestions, post it here and I will take it in to consideration. I would prefer to do the editing work myself, and if someone does wish to make an edit a notification would be appreciated.--Jacklinkz92 (talk) 21:02, 18 October 2017 (MDT)

I believe I have a functioning race. Now if I can figure out how to get this thing in the list with all the others after some reviews from other people, my life will be complete.--Jacklinkz92 (talk) 21:31, 20 October 2017 (MDT)

Subrace traits were bugging me so I shuffled stuff around and reworded some things.--Jacklinkz92 (talk) 17:33, 28 October 2017 (MDT)

I've looked at your stuff and it seems you've got the right idea. Since you're new to the wiki I'd recommend you look through the 5e_Race_Design_Guide as I believe the structure, wording and clarity behind certain traits as well as the way you should write lore would benefit from it. I also saw that you wanted to do the editing by yourself so I've added a WIP and an inuse template on the page so no one bothers you until you're done and this reaches the wiki's standards. I'd also recommend learning how to do SRD references on the wiki, from example Strength, longbow/Longbow, History, Darkvision which you can see how I've done by looking at the talk pages code. I'll be around if you need any help/guidance but read through that the design guide first. ConcealedLight (talk) 04:00, 29 December 2017 (MST)

Been a long time since I looked at this thing. I guess I just needed a new spark to hopefully get this thing back on track. Hopefully this revision will clarify any questions that may have arisen due to my sloppy way of writing this the first time around.--192.77.189.125 22:53, 11 June 2018 (MDT)

Concealed Light, do you mind providing a clarification as to what specifically is the issue in which the ability is formatted? As well as why it qualifies for a template for mechanical balance. Itenen (talk) 13:47, 28 January 2019 (MST)

Think about it like this. There is no race published by WoTC that uses a system of uses per ability score modifier, it is limited to class features such as the clerics Warding Flare or Wrath of the Storm. In those cases, they grant one benefit instead of a choice of several. Given this and the strength of the races, other traits it is necessary to reudce its strength by reducing the number of times the race can do. As in, making it single use and recharge on a long rest. Next racial traits are presented as individual benefits rather than a collection of benefits so the trait should either be made into a singular benefit or be split into multiple smaller traits. Hope that explains it. —ConcealedLight (talk) 15:16, 28 January 2019 (MST)

Alright, that's a lot clearer now. Thanks! Itenen (talk) 07:36, 29 January 2019 (MST)
