      Honestly, i think it's time for Wizards to make a proper redux of the player's handbook to fix the classes and rules that need it. I homebrew sorcerer's to have new spells for their spell list, but i want them to go back and officaly do that as well. Also, give proper fixes to classes like the Ranger and Warlock without just trying to patch it via stuff like subclasses and feats. Yes, this means the old PHB would become outdated, but i feel like it's justified now.

    "Play the elementalist warlock that you probably never thought about"... You mean the warlock subclass I've been thinking about ever since I first learned about Unearthed Arcana? The warlock class is the class where you make a deal with a powerful, magical entity, usually an Outsider of some kind.
    "What's an 'outsider'?", Asks our 5e players. The term "outsider" was used to refer to creatures that generally originate from outside the material plane, namely aberrations, celestials, elementals, fey, fiends, and undead. You see this theme in 5e descriptions like the spell Protection from Evil and Good, which guards against these creatures, as well as the numerous summoning spells.
    So when 5e came out with warlock subclasses for only the aberrations, fey, and fiends; I asked "why don't we have subclasses for the celestials, elementals, and undead”? I don't know why it took so darn long, but they took their sweet time. Heck, they even had a reference to an elemental warlock in the Princes of the Apocalypse campaign. It was an the water elemental assassin with pact casting and the ability to turn into a lesser elemental. It was cool.

    You could reflavor the death rogue as a sort of afterlife guide. Skill/tool profs are just you having escorted so many people to the ferryman that you've heard a lot of things, and extra damage is just you knowing how to defend yourself.
    With the two later abilities, that could be something similar to tip the ferryman, but instead it's giving you a trinket so that they can be escorted to the person who will tell them what afterlife they will go to. The fact that they let you stay alive is basically your paycheck for helping the cycle of Souls. the fact of the trinkets can find you on there own later, is just showing that you as a part of this system are well-known enough for the ghost to know to come to you. This allows it to change from an overly death for the sake of death class, to more of a person who helps people have a calm after life.

    I think aim is there for people who want to play non stealthy rogues. Which is weird, because they didn’t make it an alternative to hiding they made it superior. No skill check or anything? It works even when an enemy has you restrained which is the rogues weakness? That’s weird

      I agree, especially because one of the many things genie warlock can do at LV14 is Travel via Plants to anywhere that has a tree youve seen.
      The only thing Fathomless can do at 14 is teleport and its worse than the genielocks teleport.

      Honestly, i like the new capstone more. I love that you teleport to a pond or other body of water that you have been to, which fits with the subclass. Yes, the other teleport is better, but i don't feel like it's as fitting, and honestly, sound pretty fucking infuriating as a DM. I think the new verison of Fathomless is good as it is, and people are overreacting.

    I'm so excited for the Bladesinger cause my all time favorite DnD character was a Bladesinger in 4e (wasn't my choice) and ever since then, his core identity has always been physically weak, super agile, book smart, incredibly terrible wisdom but a strong enough personality to where you either love him or hate him. As a result, if I can't get the sword mage angle to work, I usually roll a bard because bardic knowledge and charisma, but it's not the same as the Bladesinger.

    So with the rogue class I play in a game where the three of us are orphans who have left candlekeep to become adventurers. We are a arcane trickster rogue, a lore cleric, and a witch. This means the rogue actually has a hard time getting more than one sneak attack as my witch and the cleric are both built like wizards, low str, dex. As such our rogue is our tank, especially since we weren’t gifted armour as the library never expects it’s lost orphans to return. So it’s very useful in a situation like this, though, like a lot of tashas additions are overkill in a “standard” 5-6 person party. They’re extremely useful in a smaller and/or unoptimised party and allow for freeing up what encounters a dm can throw at a party and not fall down the rabbit hole of repetitive spell battles or melee in everyone’s face

    I have a homerule for everyone's least favorite cantrip, True Strike, that was made to make the cantrip actually useful in more situations. Rather than needing concentration, the cantrip can be used before any other action that would normally be used to capitalize on a use of True Strike, however, you are unable to roll above a 15 and any rolls above a 15 become 15. Likewise, the cantrip can only be used on a maximum of 1D6 foes per combat encounter, and to see how many you can use it on you must roll said D6 when you first use True Strike.
    Ideally, this makes the cantrip much more useful and makes it actually decent for people to have. It also helps with players who, for the life of them, keep getting the dice gods angry with them and normally have enemies break their concentration continuously.

    Here's how I "fixed" sorcerers in my home campaign and so far it's worked out pretty well. Step 1. Sorcerers get their magic from internal sources, a bloodline, a direct connection to an energy source, etc. I made the casting stat of Sorcerers Constitution to reflect the fact that the magic is an inherent part of your being. (Also there are WAY too many goddamned Charisma casters in 5e. and none of the other stats made sense.)
    2. I have sorcerers use the optional Spell Points rule found in the DMG. For their spell slots, AND in addition to that I have combined their Spell Point pool and their Metamagic pool into one single resource. Want to burn through all your spell points spamming metamagic on like 3 third level spells at level 5? Go for it, but youre tapped for the day. Want to conserve them and instead cast a shit ton of 1st level spells or spend it all on metamagic on cantrips? GO FOR IT.
    Sorcerers were always supposed to be the "flexible" casters and I feel they are gimped enough with only getting 1 new known spell per level compared to a wizards 2 freebies.
    The part of limiting higher level magic still applies to the sorcerers for the part of the Spell Points system, so you're only getting one spell per day of 6-9th. But at max level you can churn out the daka daka and utility like no ones business. All with metamagic.

I think there should be more reasons for Monks to use Strength for players who want to play something more akin to a boxer or pugilist, and I think there's room for a Rogue subclass that can work with Str by using Intimidation instead of Stealth, sort of like how slasher movie villains work, or maybe a Roguish archetype that is themed around being a bruiser for a thieve's guild or something of the like using very similar concepts. On the other side, dissuading Dex Fighters takes away half of the world's most well known kinds of warriors, and is restrictive for no good reason.

Part of the problem I have with fighter is how generic the base class itself is because it's trying to accommodate so many different kinds of characters.
