      SN0WRAVEN The new playtest is great for the most part. But Sneak Attack is utterly worthless

      I liked your example #2 with the wagon crashing through a wall very much but then I very well could imagine that Mr. Greenwood had handled the situation exactly the same way. Just that Quelzard was the reason for the wagon to crash through the wall. Nowhere did Ed say that you had to hand the players the rescue on a silver platter (and on a regular basis). He just suggested a reasoning for the rescuing event. Someone has to set the wagon in motion. The thing is that the players won't...

      Well, to offer up a different point of view, the cave troll in this case is actually playing the part of Quelzard.
      Quelzard, in my understanding, is not actually a person, or even a group of people. It's a concept. It's the idea that you can improvise and help your adventurers out, but that there should be a plausible explanation. It's the safety net that can give your adventurers a chance against what would otherwise be certain death, while still forcing them to work for it.

      Maybe have x non-combat cantrips given free, so people can still choose?

      Because the trope its generally trying to cater to is not a generic 'Protection' effect. Protection from Good/Evil/Neutrality was actually more of a Protection from the Supernatural effect. It generally didn't and never would affect non-magical beings, no matter what their alignment even in the 1e D&D game. Extraplanar creatures were effected, and they were classified by their alignments generally, because in 1e, among other things, there were distinct alignment planes of existence that...

      One of the things I loved about previous editions was the ability to use Items to complement my daily spells.
      - I always carried a variety of wands for "standards" (magic missle, fireball, lightningbolt).
      - I'd carry scrolls for "utility" spells (remove curse, stone to flesh)
      - and finally potions for "one-offs" (Water breathing).
      The rest of my daily spells would be a mixture of standards for a little extra "umph" and spells tailored for what we *thought* we'd need for...

      Pathfinder's not going anywhere if you favor that kind of high-powered adventure, most game stores host a couple of people who at least have the books. I resented having to stock up on every piece of crap allowable to my character class to be effective in Third Ed. I'm sure Fifth will have an Artificer eventually, so keep an eye out even if it's not your game of choice, although wands and staves might end up being a bit more work. Wands don't seem to be quite the (relatively) cheap disposable...
