📋 About This Mod
Rework of the Arcane Trickster rogue subclass with the aim of making it stronger, more versatile, and more interesting, while not being OP.
Main features:Half caster
You unlock level 2 spell slots at rogue level 5 and level 3 spell slots at rogue level 5. Changed spell slot and spell acquisition progression accordingly.
(Vanilla AT is like, 1/3 caster, only gaining spells up to level 2.)
Trickster Magic (passive)
War Magic clone learned at level 4. Upon casting a spell or cantrip, you can make a basic attack as a bonus action.
(This might seem a bit crazy at first glance, but you could already kind of do this with an off-hand attack, and the other rogue subclasses still get powerful effects at this level.)
Expanded Arcane Trickster spell list
Level 1: Command, Dissonant Whispers
Level 2: Enthrall, Silence, Shadow Blade, Nathair's Mischief, Mind Whip
Level 3: Fear, Hypnotic Pattern, Antagonize, Catnap, Enemies Abound, Motivational Speech
Spells marked with an require 5e Spells.
(Non-wizard Illusion and Enchantment spells, and of course level 3 spells.)
Magical Secrets at level 10
Identical to the level 6 Bard College of Lore subclass feature. Pick 2 spells from the Magical Secrets list, up to level 3.
(Replaces learning from the paltry pool of illusion and enchantment spells at level 10 and 11. Includes some neat spells like Hunger of Hadar and Spirit Guardians.)
