the new forgotten realm subclasses une
0:02
Arana document includes the new
0:04
spellfire sorcerer subclass sorry
0:07
spellfire sorcer I'm going to get that
0:09
one wrong so many times anyway uh it's
0:13
themed around direct access to the raw
0:16
weave which is the sort of source of
0:18
Arcane magic within Forgotten Realms
0:20
lore so in many case this is the
0:23
sorcerers sorcerer drawing from the
0:26
magic source of magic it is uh somewhat
0:30
conceptually generic honestly uh in a
0:33
lot of ways this seems to borrow
0:35
Concepts from the Divine Soul sorcerer
0:37
focusing on a splash of cleric spells
0:40
and a lot of fire damage uh there are
0:42
some Unique Mechanics especially in
0:45
spellfire burst which adds a another rer
0:48
effect when you use a sorcery point so
0:50
if you're spreading out your sorcery
0:53
points carefully throughout the day you
0:54
can benefit quite a bit from this doing
0:57
a little bit of extra damage granting
0:59
temporary hit points to yourself and
1:00
your allies um a lot of the things in
1:04
the subass really just fit nicely on top
1:07
of the sorcerer's existing capabilities
1:10
without adding a ton of complexity the
1:12
scaling is pretty good the concept is
1:14
fine the spell list it doesn't feel
1:17
super inspired but the options there are
1:19
all very reliable good
1:22
spells probably the lowest point of the
1:25
subass is the level six feature absorb
1:28
spells which lets you regenerate
1:29
generate sorcery points when you
1:31
successfully counter spell something now
1:34
that on its face is perfectly fine but
1:37
the problem is most enemies can't cast
1:39
spells so you might go huge sections of
1:42
of your career just completely unable to
1:44
use that feature especially since the
1:48
2024 rules the late 2014 rules all moved
1:52
away from spellcasting enemies more
1:55
towards unique special
1:58
abilities so if you're familiar with
2:00
playing a war magic wizard who gets a
2:02
similar feature at low levels you may be
2:05
familiar with waiting for an enemy
2:07
spellcaster to appear so you have some
2:09
chance to actually use one of your
2:12
signature features
