Notes

Bugs

  • The spell save DC of the Slayer's actions uses the spellcasting ability of the last class you took a first level in, but with the Slayer's ability scores. This results in a very low DC due to the Slayer's low mental ability scores. In particular, Fighters, Rogues, Wizards, Clerics, Druids, Monks, and Rangers have a +0 spellcasting modifier from Intelligence or Wisdom in Slayer form, while Barbarians, Bards, Paladins, Sorcerers, and Warlocks have a -1 spellcasting modifier from Charisma while in Slayer form.
