Casting in shape?

Am I right in thinking that warlocks shouldn't be able to cast in shape from their quickcast menu. Encountered that today ....

Now in PnP D&D, if the form you assumed has a mouth capable of speech, finger like body extensions to wiggle around, and access to the required spell components, then you can freely cast spells or invocations in that form.– Exploits
– No using known or unknown exploits, custom hak files, or third party programs. Absolutely no exceptions. Chances are if it seems like an exploit, it probably is. This is limited to circumvention of conventional game mechanics or intentional use of bugs only, and does not extend to things that normally occur in the game's mechanics (power attacking with a Rapier as a small race, using a Spear on a duelist, taking One Shot twice as a ranger, etc are fair game. Things will be appropriately patched by developers if and when the issues appear to be problematic).
Do they need anything? They're a top tier class in both pve and pvp after all. It's not about being grumpy in the context of this post, but about utilizing an exploit/ breaking server rules.Slunko wrote:...in short, people here get real jumpy, real fast, as soon as anyone even remotely mentions that warlocks should get anything.
I think the Warlock Invocations should get 100% spell failure while in the polymorphed form. Takes care of that bug.Slunko wrote:...in short, people here get real jumpy, real fast, as soon as anyone even remotely mentions that warlocks should get anything.

It was already disabled, and is listed as an example of a mechanical exploit DIRECTLY in our server rules. An ASF was added so that people couldn't use client extension commands to bypass the lockouts we've already put in place.
To be blunt, we also don't plan on re-enabling monk AC while shapechanged and the removal of this was vetted and discussed by Quality Control to close a number of issues.
We may be re-enabling summons while Shapechanged. Some of the other complaints we are trying to solve, but this system is currently a WIP, please be patient.
On the contrary. Warlock was identified as a weak class since day one. It was vastly improved and currently is very strong/powerful. There invocations that deal with every save (Fort/Reflex/Will), another that bypasses SR etc etcSlunko wrote:...in short, people here get real jumpy, real fast, as soon as anyone even remotely mentions that warlocks should get anything.
Wizard/Sorcerer with some levels of Arcane Scholar mixed in was the superior 'blaster master' choice back when they could just kneel for six seconds and get all their spells back. This changed with the resting limitations. Warlocks could just keep spamming their Eldritch Chain all day long.mrm3ntalist wrote:On the contrary. Warlock was identified as a weak class since day one.
