Re: Alpha Feedback - Player's Guide Section 5 Resources

Fireball is mentioned in the example of the Sorcerer section under "The Shadowed Slope" on page 114, but in the Sorcerer Spell list on page 187 Fireball is not on the Sorcerer's Spell List. Is it an oversight? Or does the example need to change?

Exchange Shadow Spell

Is Exchange Shadow intended to swap Corruption? Or is it merely a way to disguise yourself from certain extra-perceptional beings?

Re: Alpha Feedback - Player's Guide Section 5 Resources

Spirit Walk has an unusual 5e requirement to end a spell. Normally in 5e a caster can just choose to end a spell at any moment without using a reaction. This seems unnecessary. Also, this has a Casting Time of 1 minute and a duration of 1 round. I'm not sure what the use case is here. Why would you ...

Re: Reviews of Mystics class

You should check the class-specific feat section for Extensive Learning. Mystics will be alright with their spells known. ;)

Re: Alpha Feedback - Player's Guide Section 4 Classes & Feats

I agree here - if a player has the choice to take a +2 ASI for any ability score, there's no reason to risk taking the negative trait of a Burden feat for the same bonus (other than juicy RP). Unless the Burden bonus was made more enticing or you forced players to take feats at certain levels, play...

Re: Alpha Feedback - Player's Guide Section 4 Classes & Feats

Pg 136 - Polearm fighting isn't specific about where disadvantage can be imposed. I suggest the wording, "When wielding a polearm you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on a melee attack roll against any 'target of the original attack' within reach." This is taking into account 3...

Burdens

Is the intention of Burdens to replace ASIs? Otherwise, there's no objective reason for players to take a "+2 bonus to an ability score and a negative effect" in exchange for "+2 to an ability score without the negative effect."

Re: Alpha Feedback - Player's Guide Section 4 Classes & Feats

Do any of the classes have race restrictions? There's verbiage in the text of some approaches or the title of the approach that suggest that. Whatever the intent, it should be called out. There is or there is not a restriction on origin for any given approach?

Re: Alpha Feedback - Player's Guide Section 4 Classes & Feats

On page 137 under Ability Score Improvement or Feat, 14th level is not mentioned and as such doesn't match the table on the same page.
