I'm new to DnD and my brain's too small for this Sorlock shit : rpgmemes

I don't even need to multiclass. I constantly cast Hex after Hunger ✌️🥲

And even worse in Baldur's Gate 3 since you can cast both of those in the same turn.

I've cast Hunter's Mark and Ensnaring Strike in the same turn...

Would it make you feel better if I told you I hasted my friend who I was playing with 3 times in a row because I kept forgetting I cast haste, which would make him skip his turn every time? I am not a smart lady.

Cherry on top: the last time I cast it, and he was already thoroughly annoyed, I got hit and dropped concentration ^.^

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Tbf, that's just concentration. The sorlock bit had nothing to do with it

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Though dropping Haste from two people crippling them both for a round (assuming Haste works the same in Baldur's Gate it does in tabletop) is a particularly bad time to lose Concentration

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Agreed

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

It does!

I once cast haste on myself, then quickened cast fly in the same turn.

Burned two 3rd level spells, sorc points, and burned two of my own turns in a bossfight lol.

You're not supposed to long rest after every battle, you're supposed to use a lot of cantrips and try to save your spells for moments when they're needed, like potions. Or in the case of Warlocks, you regain spells on a short rest. Also Circle of the Land Druids do too. Sorcerers rarely run out of spells at higher levels, but the trade off is that they get fewer spells, so if you want to cast all of the time in combat you want a sorcerer who has a pile of nearly-always-good spells like Magic Missile, Chromatic Orb, Fireball, etc.

Tbf a lot of companion interaction in BG3 is tied to long rests, so it makes sense to be pretty heavy handed with them

For sure, in my previous comment I was just talking more generally about how D&D is designed

Evocation school can help you with hitting your buddies with AOE. They get spell sculpting and won’t hit their compatriots with their spells.

and everything that isn't stone or metal burns

Oh yeah that really sucks. I’ve definitely set fire to a few ladders. There’s one in the underdark with a trap at the bottom that sets fire to it if you’re not careful that is just sadistic.

You can get a big jump ritual on one character and then it's easy to get anywhere

I feel your pain. I’m constantly casting spirit guardians and then using my bonus action to cast shield of faith. Both require concentration.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm not sure i quite get this 😅

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Some spells are "concentration", which means you have to actively concentrate on them to keep the effect going.

You can't concentrate on two different concentration spells at once. So when they cast Hunger of Hadar, the two ongoing Haste effects stopped, also making the affected characters lethargic, which means they can't do anything next turn.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Thank you, that makes perfect sense

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I did basically the same thing last night... Felt so dumb..
