Talk:Deadman's Cape (5e Equipment)

Tweaks Done and Other Notes

I have made a number of tweaks and minor edits to this page for a number of different reasons which I will try to go over here, namely:

• Shadow Is Just As Fast As Light was changed to be used only as a bonus action, as things that can be used as a reaction need a specific trigger to use(when you take damage from an attack, ect.). This change just makes the property more straightforward.
• I made a lot of other wording tweaks to clear things up or simply fix incorrect grammar such as spells which need to not be capitalized and do need to be italicized.
• I have made changing between the two forms require a bonus action to prevent cheese where you attack and go ethereal to avoid all damage for as long as the property is active.
• Item's have their own power sources and do not regain their properties when you take rests. Because of this, I have changed the item to regain its property at dawn.
• Finally, I have removed the set effect properties as magical items should not gain additional effects if you are a certain race, class, what other items you are attuned to, ect. I do think that this effect could possibly be reworked so the item is just cursed, but the regeneration would still have to be removed.

With that, I believe that covers close to all the changes made to the item, and I am more than willing to discuss why certain changes were made further if needed.--Blobby383b (talk) 14:11, 19 June 2021 (MDT)

Nice Tweak!

I read the tweaks and your notes and I am actually quite fine with it. Nice tweak! (Especially the grammar check and smooth wording choices) But I still do want the unable to attack or usr items while in the Deadman's form with the on and off choice like Storm Bringer, so I'll add that in.

I am pretty sure it not over powered to do so... And I'll think about the set effect property in the future. I don't think it will return though.--Novum (talk) 3:11, 20 June 2021 (MDT)
