"Unflinching takes entire sections out of any small creature's possible repertoire, with only an action.^[sic]" —Yanied

I don't think any monster's repertoire relies on shoving or knocking prone, but especially any small creature's. This provides a tiny benefit in niche fights at the cost of a reaction, and is fundamentally less useful than, for example, a goliath's stone endurance. Yet (in my opinion at least) it is much more interesting because it only applies in some situations, even if those situations have much less impact on the outcome of a fight than something as raw as hit points. - Guy 22:38, 30 August 2024 (MDT)

"Ultimate defense reeks of min-max trade off, with resistance to ALL damage types in exchange to failing dex saves (you will take half damage from the ones that cause damage anyway then." —Yanied

..."Reeks"? Really.

While I disagree, sure, nerfed. I think it synergizes more nicely with the other trait now, but it feels much less like a stone construct. Oh well. - Guy 22:38, 30 August 2024 (MDT)
