Meanwhile everybody won’t know how to play Cleric outside of Life Domain.
sheds tear in Spiritual Weapon and Spirit Guardians
...but those spells aren't unique to Life Domain Clerics? Every Cleric gets those spells.
Nah, meant moreso that clerics would be relegated to healbots versus the divine fury they can deliver
I figured it'd be the opposite since potions are so much stronger in bg3. The ability to throw potions makes anyone a bit of a healer, multiattack even lets you throw two. Plus, being able to use one as a bonus action let's people take care of themselves a bit better.
It also helps that the default cleric (Shadowheart) isn't life so someone would have to specifically roll one.
You can reroll companions. Shadowheart has been Life since like lvl 6 for me. The change, if you do it later in ger story, also makes sense for her.
Ooooooh I should do that!
I've never player D&D and Shadowheart seemed to really not doing much on the healing side.
Never thought it was linked to a choice/subclass nor to reroll her.
I know what I'll do this evening, thanks!
