<div class='cover-footer'>Extended 3rd Party Content To Support Your Martial Classes

Including Martial Feats, Revised Subclasses, And Optional Features</div>

\pagebreak

<div class='cover-header'>Design Note</div>

First of all, these feature is designed to slowly integrate into the original 5e version of these martial classes. One of the main purpose of martial class is to be the learning curve of new players or an inexperienced ones. But the lack of options like spells, invocations, or infusions, makes them less versatile or scaling poorly into higher tier of adventure unless their DM is kind enough to throw them some magic item to help with that. Which not every DM knows or sure how to do it, where the sky limit.

Whenever your martial class player decide that they want to stay with their favorite class and the DM want to help with their scaling to higher tier without throwing in too many magic items you made the caster player felt disregarded. I present to you, my own version of martial progression.

### Martial Optional Feature

Additional features that is created to support the martial class at higher level when they start to fall short.

**Martial-Focused Classes (barbarian, fighter, and monk).** These optional features were meant to adjust and fix up old feature that couldn't keep up with higher tier adventure. When a spellcaster can cast *wish* or call down *meteor swarm* left and right, it's almost incomparable to what martial classes were given.

**Expert Class (rogue).** These optional feature is designed to increase their potential in combat but still stick with their roguish aesthetic.

**Soul-Bonded Weapon.** One of the major different is, while a higher level caster can still stand their ground with monster. Martial is at the mercy of their DM to throw them few magic items to their hand. So I give them a feature that could evolve their weapon accordingly. The world of magic and dragon is a world of story, and since story has power here. I think it's safe to say your journey with a trusted weapon can create a little something.

### Martial Feat

Giving weapon master feat for every type of weapon. Improving underused weapons significantly.

### Revised Subclass

Martial subclasses are being fixed with their wording and given some utility feature to use outside of roleplay, usually in a form of another 1st tier feature that gives proficiency bonus, cantrip, or a certain out of combat feature.

# Martial Optional Feature

## Martial Class

Some of these features requires you to have level in martial class. This means that you can only have these feature once per character even though you multiclass into 2 martial classes or more. But the level you put into martial class will still give you the benefit of these feature.

| Martial Class Level  | Class |
|:---:|:-----------:|
|  1  | Barbarian, Fighter, Monk, Rogue |
|  1/2  | Artificer, Paladin, Ranger, |
|  0  | Bard, Cleric, Druid, Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard |

So a character with 5 level in fighter and 5 level in ranger, you will be considered to have 7 level in martial class (5 + 5/2 round down).

| Martial Class Level  | Feature |
|:---:|:-----------:|
|  1  | - |
|  2  | Martial Maneuvers |
|  3  | - |
|  4  | - |
|  5  | +1 Soul-Bonded Weapon, Martial Extra Attack |
|  6  | Bonus Proficiency |
|  7  | - |
|  8  | Bonus Proficiency (2) |
|  9  | - |
|  10  | Extra Attunement Slot (4) |
|  11  | +2 Soul-Bonded Weapon |
|  12  | Bonus Proficiency (3) |
|  13  | Ability Score Improvement (1) |
|  14  | Saving Throw Proficiency (1) |
|  15  | Extra Attunement Slot (5) |
|  16  | Bonus Proficiency (4) |
|  17  | Ability Score Improvement (2) |
|  18  | Saving Throw Proficiency (2) |
|  19  | Bonus Proficiency (5) |
|  20  | +3 Soul-Bonded Weapon |

### Martial Maneuvers
*2nd-level martial class*

At 2nd level, you can fuel a maneuver by rolling a d4 and using it instead of expending a superiority die. You can use a maneuver this way once per round. You have martial training that allows you to perform special combat maneuvers. You gain the following benefits:

* You learn two maneuvers of your choice from among those available to the **Battle Master archetype** in the fighter class. If a maneuver you use requires your target to make a saving throw to resist the maneuver's effects, the saving throw DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength or Dexterity modifier (your choice).

\pagebreakNum

* You gain 2 superiority dies, which is a d8 (this die is added to any superiority dice you have from another source). This die is used to fuel your maneuvers. A superiority die is expended when you use it. You regain your expended superiority dice when you finish a long rest.

Whenever you reach a level that grants the Ability Score Improvement feature, you can replace one maneuver you know with a different maneuver.

### Soul-Bonded Weapon
*5th-level martial class*

Your weapon that has been fighting side by side with you has been enhanced with your fighting spirit. Even if it's not magical, it has evolved itself to catch up with your growth. Whenever you finish a long rest, you can touch a weapon and imbue it with fighting spirit, turning it into a magic weapon if it isn't already.

This magic weapon grants a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it. The bonus increases to +2 and +3 when you reach 11th and 20th level in martial class. If your weapon already has a bonus to its attack and damage rolls, applies whichever is higher.

You can only have one Soul-Bonded Weapon and only you can benefit from this feature. When the weapon is not in your possession, it turns dormant and becomes non-magical if it originally is, trying to bond with another weapon results in the same effect to your first weapon.

### Martial Extra Attack
*5th-level martial class*

When you take the Attack action, you can replace one of your attacks with one of the following actions:

* **Climb onto a Bigger Creature.** A suitably large opponent can be treated as terrain for the purpose of jumping onto its back or clinging to a limb. After making any ability checks necessary to get into position and onto the larger creature, the smaller creature uses its action to make a Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check contested by the target's Dexterity (Acrobatics) check. If it wins the contest, the smaller creature successfully moves into the target creature's space, the smaller creature moves with the target and has advantage on attack rolls against it. The smaller creature can move around within the larger creature's space, treating the space as difficult terrain. The larger creature's ability to attack the smaller creature depends on the smaller creature's location, and is left to your discretion. The larger creature can dislodge the smaller creature as an action—knocking it off, scraping it against a wall, or grabbing and throwing it—by making a Strength (Athletics) check contested by the smaller creature's Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check.
* **End a Condition.** If a condition requires an action to end it, you can instead use one of your extra attack to end that condition instead. Such as to escape from *entangle* or to shake the creature out of *hypnotic pattern*.
* **Escape a Grapple.** A grappled creature can use its action to escape. To do so, the grappler must succeed on a Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check contested by your Strength (Athletics) check.
* **Healing Surge.** A character can use a healing surge and spend up to half his or her Hit Dice. For each Hit Die spent in this way, the player rolls the die and adds the character's Constitution modifier. The character regains hit points equal to the total. The player can decide to spend an additional Hit Die after each roll.
* **Tumble.** A creature can try to tumble through a hostile creature's space, ducking and weaving past the opponent. You can move around within the hostile creature's space, treating the space as difficult terrain. You can also try to makes a Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check contested by the hostile creature's Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check. If you win the contest, you can move through the hostile creature's space as normal terrain.

### Bonus Skill Proficiency
*6th-level martial class*

You gain a proficiency in a skill of your choice. At 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th martial level, you gain one skill proficiency.

### Extra Attunement Slot
*10th-level martial class*

You gain one extra attunement slot. At 15th level, you gain another attunement slot.

### Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 13th level, and again at 17th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Using the optional feats rule, you can forgo taking this feature to take a feat of your choice instead.

### Saving Throw Proficiency
*14th-level martial class*

You gain a proficiency in a saving throw of your choice. At 18th level, you can choose one more saving throw to gain this benefit. If you already have proficiency in all saving throw, you can instead choose to take Ability Score Improvement or a feat of your choice.

## Martial Class: Barbarian

As a martial who relies on their instinct and their senses, it's safety to say that they are faster to response to danger. Hence, they should have more time to react. Either it will be the complex equation (Intelligence), power of mind (Wisdom), or force of personality (Charisma). Hence, my **Improved Danger Sense** feature.

In a day, barbarian might spend 2-4 uses of Rage which leaves many unspent. So I design **Indomitable Resistance** feature to allow the barbarian an alternative use of Rage. It's definitely useful but also burn through your most important resource.

### Competent Rage
*3rd-level barbarian*

You can add your rage bonus damage to your melee, thrown, or improvised weapons and unarmed strikes.

### Fast And Furious
*5th-level barbarian*

When you move on your turn in combat, you can expend one use of your rage to double your speed until the end of the turn.

### Replenish Force
*5th-level barbarian*

After you finish a short rest, you regain 1 use of your Rage.

### Improved Danger Sense
*9th-level barbarian*

Your danger sense has allowed you to make a quickened reaction to even the most complex or puzzling danger. As a reaction when you are forced to make Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma saving throws, you can grant yourself advantage on that saving throw. To gain this benefit, you can’t be incapacitated.

### Indomitable Resistance
*15th-level barbarian*

When you are forced to make a saving throw, you can expend one use of your rage to make the saving throw with your Constitution saving throw instead.

### Barbaric Sovereign
*20th-level barbarian*

If you've already taken your reaction, you may spend 10 hit point to take an additional reaction. You can use only one reaction per triggering effect. This hit point cost cannot be reduced in any way, and it can reduce to the minimum of 0 hit point.

Each you use this feature again before the start of your next turn, the hit point cost is doubled.

\columnbreak

## Martial Class: Fighter

The problem with fighter is that sometime the feature given at higher level is too basic, too boring even. While other classes can do the unthinkable at level 20, you gain one additional attack. Don't get me wrong, it is powerful but the point is it's too basic and anticlimactic.

In my version of fighter, I think battle master should not be a subclass but integrating into the class itself as a unique feature. 
Hence you will have **Combat Superiority** as general fighter class feature.

Another point, I want to give a fighter the 20th level feature they deserve. Hence, **Valiant Legend** feature.

### Combat Superiority
*3rd-level fighter*

You learn one maneuver of your choice, which are detailed under Battle Master's Maneuvers. Many maneuvers enhance an attack in some way. You can use only one maneuver per attack.

You learn one additional maneuvers of your choice at 7th, 10th, and 15th level. Each time you learn new maneuvers, you can also replace one maneuver you know with a different one.

**Superiority Dice.** You have 2 superiority dice, which are d8s. A superiority die is expended when you use it. You regain all of your expended superiority dice when you finish a short or long rest.

**Saving Throws.** Some of your maneuvers require your target to make a saving throw to resist the maneuver’s effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

Maneuver save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength or Dexterity modifier (your choice)

### Valiant Legend
*20th-level fighter*

You gain 1 additional reaction which can only be used in the following ways:

* **Valiant Avenger.** When an ally within 60 feet of you is attacked, you can make one attack against the attacker. If you cannot reach the target you can move up to your speed, then if your attack reaches you can make one attack.
* **Valiant Protector.** When an ally within 60 feet of you is reduced to 0 hit point, you can expend a use of your Second Wind feature. The chosen ally regains hit point equal to your fighter level and temporary hit point equal to your fighter level times 5. The temporary hit points last for 1 minute.
* **Valiant Watcher.** You make a Wisdom (Perception) check as a reaction in your turn. When you use this feature, you gain a 60 feet of blindsight until the end of your next turn.

## Martial Class: Monk

Monk has always been the infamous class for being either too weak against enemies or too powerful in PVP. Which I understand, monk was supposed to be the marter of martial arts with or without their weapon. Because to them, they are the weapon.

**Spirit Cultivation.** To create a very distinguished path from the caster, monk's ki related feature are now considered as pseudo-magical.

Every brewer debates if we should give monk more ki point. Will it break the game? Will it be enough? I'm one of the brewer who believe that monk should at least always have 1 ki point in their arsenal. So I create **Ki Combatant** feature.

Stunning Strike has been a loved-hated relationship between the monk and their DM. It's either too overpowered or irrelevant, monsters with large amount of Constitution score can basically ignore your stunning strike and monsters who doesn't will become a stunned target the entire combat. I gives the monk more options of what to do with their strike in **Skillful Strike**.

**Improved Unarmed Strike** aids the monk of how their unarmed strike rarely has a magic item that increases their attack and damage rolls (generic +1/+2/+3 weapon).

**Cleansing of Mind** is self-explanatory, you'll regain 1 ki point at the start of your turn with this additional feature, I think it's safe to say you won't running out of resource easily.

**Improved Martial Techniques** is what I think how it should scale. What's letdown of the monk feature is that their unique skill looks like a slightly worse version of another class with even more expensive price tag.

**Enlightened Soul** is the 20th level feature that I believe is worthy of tier 4 adventure. At this point, other classes could shape the world in their image, and the monk deserves the same level of awe. My inspiration was the Buddhist monk and their path to enlightenment.

### Spirit Cultivation
*3rd-level monk*

Your ki is a spiritual energy, hence it is not magical. Which means your class feature is functional in an antimagic field or similar effect.

\columnbreak

### Ki Combatant

Your experience allows you to draw more ki into your body. You gain the following benefits:

* **Combat Ki.** When you take the Attack action, as a bonus action you can spend one of your monk's Hit Die to regain ki points equal to one roll of your Martial Arts die.

### Skillful Strike

* **Disarming Strike.** The target must succeed on a Strength saving throw or drop one item of your choice that it’s holding.
* **Sweeping Strike.** The target must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or be knocked prone.
* **Psychic Strike.** The target must succeed on a Intelligence saving throw or its concentration ends.
* **Menacing Strike.** The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be frightened of you until the end of your next turn.
* **Spiritual Strike.** The target must succeed on a Charisma saving throw or its movement speed is halved and it cannot take a reaction until the end of your next turn.

### Improved Unarmed Strike
*6th-level monk*

You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with your unarmed strike. The bonus increases to +2 and +3 when you reach 11th and 20th level in this class.

If your unarmed strike already has a bonus to its attack and damage rolls, applies whichever is higher.

\pagebreakNum

### Cleansing of Mind

You can spend 1 ki point to end charmed or frightened condition (no action required).

### Improved Martial Techniques

* **Patient Defense.** You gain a number of temporary hit points equal to a roll of your martial art die plus your Wisdom modifier when you use this ability.
* **Step of the Wind.** You no longer spend ki when you use this feature, and your jump distance now triples instead of doubles until the end of your turn.
* You can take an additional reaction. You can use only one reaction per triggering effect.

### Improved Ki Combatant
*15th-level monk*

Your body has been purified out of poison of mind. Your ki features improve in the following ways:

* **Combat Ki.** When you use this feature, you can forgo regaining your ki points to regain hit points equal to one roll of your Martial Art die + your Wisdom modifier.
* **Ki-Boosted Reflexes.** You can't be surprised while you are conscious and creatures don't gain advantage on attack rolls against you as a result of being unseen by you.

### Enlightened Soul

You have gained mastery over your spiritual energy, you can achieve a feat beyond mortals:

* You can take another additional reaction. You can use only one reaction per triggering effect.

## Martial Class: Rogue

Technically, rogue is not a martial-martial class. They are an expert class who's focused on their skill and expertise. But they are also a non-caster which leaves them in a tight spot same as any other non-caster class. This optional feature was not intended to make the rogue turn into even more combat focused, but to the trickster they were meant to be (without magic of course).

**Saving Throws.** Some of your tricks require your target to make a saving throw to resist the trick’s effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

Trick save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Dexterity modifier

### Tricks

Unlike magic, trickery is what the outlaw, like a rogue, thrives on. Their mastery over misleading and lies make them the most illusive trickster. All of the tricks are made by equipment and mechanics, they are non-magical and still functional in an antimagic field or similar effect. However, your tricks require you to have either thieves' tools or a disguise kit in your inventory.

# Rage Origin

To infuse a mystical rage essence into your barbarian PC (or NPC), consider introducing a secondary subclass. The barbarian's rage origin emphasizes utility and uniqueness for activities outside of combat.

## Barbarian: Rage Origin

Each Rage Origin provides a distinct flavor and set of abilities, transforming the barbarian into a multifaceted force on the battlefield. This not only adds utility to the class but also introduces a layer of narrative depth, allowing players to explore the rich backstory and origins of their barbarian characters.

As you learn the origin of your anger, your rage grant you the power within to create supernatural effects which adds more when you gain level in this class. These effects are not magical in nature hence they are not affected by antimagic field or similar effect. You can use these effect following the similar rule of spellcasting but still you are not casting a spell, hence they can still be used while you are raging.

**Saving Throws.** Some of your rage origin features require your target to make a saving throw to resist the effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

Rage Origin save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier

I categorized barbarian's rage origin into 4 subclasses: Justice, Mind, Pain, and Spirit.

### Justice

Driven by a sense of justice, this rage is activated when characters witness or experience perceived injustices. It fuels a desire to right wrongs and protect others. They harness their rage to address societal injustices and protect those who cannot defend themselves.

# Ki Cultivation

If you want to add in a flavor of mystical cultivator to your monk PC (or NPC), you can offer them a secondary subclass. Monk's cultivation technique focuses on utility and out-of-combat spell.

## Monk: Cultivation Technique

These effects are not magical in nature hence they are not affected by antimagic field or similar effect. You can use these effect following the similar rule of spellcasting but still you are not casting a spell.

You can spend a number of ki point equals to the level of these spell to cast it once without expending a spell slot unless it's a cantrip. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest. These spells don't require spell components unless it's a costly material component. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability.

I categorized monk's cultivation technique into 4 subclasses. Depending on which path of cultivation they had taken, they will to spend their ki to create a different effect.

# Expertise

In case of expert class (ranger and rogue), I want to present the idea of their secondary subclass. This mechanic has been use in other TTRPG (ex. PF2e) and it gives much more room for versatility and flavor to the expert class.

In a way, this is my approach to fix the ranger. Who is also one of the most infamous class that is in need of revision or optional feature. Since the rogue has their optional feature, their secondary subclass might not be as powerful as ranger's.

## Ranger: Ranger Expertise

Comparing to a rogue, ranger need more revision at early level and overall. which is why their 2nd subclass comes at 3rd level.

I categorized their secondary subclass into 3 subclasses:

* Companion Expert

Both the Beast Companion and the ally gain temporary hit point equal to your ranger level.

A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to your War Cry for the next 24 hours.

### Path of the Beast

Barbarians who walk the Path of the Beast draw their rage from a bestial spark burning within their souls. That beast bursts forth in the throes of rage, physically transforming the barbarian.

#### Form of the Beast
*3rd-level Path of the Beast feature*

When you enter your rage, you can transform, revealing the bestial power within you. Until the rage ends, you manifest a natural weapon. It counts as a simple melee weapon for you, and you add your Strength modifier to the attack and damage rolls when you attack with it, as normal.

You choose the weapon’s form each time you rage:

* **Bite.** Your mouth transforms into a bestial muzzle or great mandibles (your choice). It deals 1d8 piercing damage on a hit. As a bonus action, you can make one attack with your Bite. **If you have more than half your hit point, you gain a number of temporary hit points equal to your proficiency bonus.** If you have less than half your hit points when you hit, you regain a number of hit points equal to your proficiency bonus
* **Claws.** Each of your hands transforms into a claw, which you can use as a weapon if it’s empty. It deals **1d4** slashing damage on a hit. **When you make a melee attack on your turn, you can make one additional Claws attack as part of the same action.**
* **Tail.** You grow a lashing, spiny tail, which deals 1d8 piercing damage on a hit and has the reach property. If a creature you can see within 10 feet of you hits you with an attack roll, you can use your reaction to swipe your tail and roll a d8, applying a bonus to your AC equal to the number rolled, potentially causing the attack to miss you.

#### Part of the Beast World
*3rd-level Path of the Beast optional feature*

You can speak in all animal languages and they can understand you. Most beasts lack the intelligence to convey or understand sophisticated concepts, but a friendly beast could relay what it has seen or heard in the recent past.

\columnbreak

#### Bestial Soul
*6th-level Path of the Beast feature*

The feral power within you increases, causing the natural weapons of your Form of the Beast to count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

You can also alter your form to help you adapt to your surroundings. When you finish a short or long rest, choose one of the following benefits, which lasts until you finish your next short or long rest:

* **Beast of the Land.** You gain a climbing speed equal to your walking speed. As a bonus action, while you're on the ground you can jump to an unoccupied space within 15 feet that you can see without provoking an attack of opportunity.
* **Beast of the Sea.** You gain a swimming speed equal to your walking speed. You can breath both air and water. As an action, you can grant 5 creatures that you can see within 30 feet an ability to breathe underwater for 8 hour.
* **Beast of the Sky.** While raging, you gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed. As a reaction when you or a creature within 60 feet of you falls, choose up to five falling creatures within 60 feet, their descent slows to 60 feet per round for 1 minute.

#### Bestial Sense
*10th-level Path of the Beast feature, which replaces the Infectious Fury feature*

**After a short or long rest, you can borrow a sense from a beastial spirit. You gain additional sense according until you use this feature to choose another one:**

* **Eagle-Eyed.** You can see up to 2 miles away and able to discern even fine details as though looking at something no more than 100 feet away from you.
* **Echolocation.** You gain a 30-feet radius of blindsight. You can't use your blindsight while you are deafened.
* **Keen Sense.** You have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks.

#### Bestial Size
*14th-level Path of the Beast feature, which replaces the Call the Hunt feature*

As an action, you can change the size of your body at will. Choose one from Tiny, Small, Medium, or Large. You gain the following benefit depending on your size:

* **Tiny.** You gain a +5 bonus to Dexterity checks and saving throws.
* **Large or larger.** Once on each of your turns, one of your attacks with a weapon or an unarmed strike deal an extra 2d6 damage to a target on a hit.

At 18th level, you can change your size up to Huge. If your size changes to Huge, your reach increase by 5 feet.

\pagebreakNum

### Path of the Berserker

With OneD&D version of exhaustion rule, this should help with Berserker by a mile.

#### Frenzy
*3rd-level Path of the Berserker feature*

Starting when you choose this path at 3rd level, you can go into a frenzy when you rage. If you do so, for the duration of your rage you can make a single melee weapon attack as a bonus action on each of your turns after this one. When your rage ends, **you takes a −1 penalty to all attack rolls, saving throws, and ability checks which can be stacked up to -5 if you reuse this feature. Every time you finish a long rest, the penalty is reduced by 1 until it disappears.**

***Greater restoration* spell or similar effect reduces the penalty by 1.**

> ##### One D&D Exhaustion
>
> If your DM opens to use One D&D exhaustion, you could say that this subclass gains 1 level of exhaustion after using their Frenzy instead.

#### Make Way
*3rd-level Path of the Berserker optional feature*

While you're raging, you ignore nonmagical difficult terrain. If the difficult terrain is magical, you can force your way through by making a Strength saving throw against DC 10. On success, you ignore magical difficult terrain for 1 minute. The next time you use this feature before you take a long rest, the DC goes up by 5.

You can also use this feature to force yourself out of grappled or restrained.

#### Unstoppable Fury
*10th-level Path of the Berserker feature, which replaces the Intimidating Presence feature*

If you are under the effect of incapacitated, paralyzed, petrified, or stunned. You can force your way through by your determination alone. You can use your reaction to make a Constitution saving throw against DC 10. On success, one condition ends. The next time you use this feature before you take a long rest, the DC goes up by 5.

In addition, once per day, you reduce 1 level of penalty from your Frenzy after a short rest.

#### Retaliation
*14th-level Path of the Berserker feature*

Starting at 14th level, **you gain additional reaction which you can use it to take a reaction** when you take damage from a creature that is within 5 feet of you, to make a melee weapon attack against that creature.

### Path of the Storm Herald

The design of this subclass is pretty solid, a barbarian that could adapt to any harsh environment. But the limitation that you could only stick with one storm makes it falls short.

#### Storm Aura
*3rd-level Path of the Storm Herald feature*

Starting at 3rd level, you emanate a stormy, magical aura while you rage. The aura extends 10 feet from you in every direction, but not through total cover.

Your aura has an effect that activates when you enter your rage, and you can activate the effect again on each of your turns as a bonus action. **When you enter your Rage, choose desert, sea, or tundra.** Your aura’s effect depends on that chosen environment, as detailed below.

If your aura’s effects require a saving throw, the DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier.

* **Desert.** When this effect is activated **and as a bonus action on the following turn**, all other creatures in your aura take fire damage **equal to twice your proficiency bonus**.
* **Sea.** When this effect is activated **and as a bonus action on the following turn**, you can choose a creature you can see in your aura. The target must make a Dexterity saving throw. The target takes lightning damage **equal to your barbarian level + your proficiency bonus** on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
* **Tundra.** When this effect is activated **and as a bonus action on the following turn**, each creature of your choice in your aura gains temporary hit points **equal to twice your proficiency bonus**, as icy spirits inure it to suffering.

#### Environmental Adaptation
*3rd-level Path of the Storm Herald optional feature*

Your Constitution saving throw can never be made with disadvantage. Your body is adapting to any environment you're in: extreme hot or cold, deep underwater or outer space. You can breathe normally in any environment, and you have advantage on saving throws made against harmful gases and vapors such as *cloudkill* or dragon's poison breath.

#### Storm Soul
*6th-level Path of the Storm Herald feature*

At 6th level, the storm grants you benefits even when your aura isn’t active. The benefits are based on the environment you chose for your Storm Aura. **When you finish a short or long rest, choose one of the following benefits, which lasts until you finish your next short or long rest:**

* **Desert.** You gain resistance to fire damage. Moreover, as an action, you can touch a flammable object that isn’t being worn or carried by anyone else and set it on fire.
* **Sea.** You gain resistance to lightning damage, and you can breathe underwater. You also gain a swimming speed equals to your walking speed.
* **Tundra.** You gain resistance to cold damage. Moreover, as an action, you can touch water and turn a 5-foot cube of it into ice, which melts after 1 minute. This action fails if a creature is in the cube.

## Fighter: Martial Archetypes

Fighter subclass revision intend to solve and update some feature to keep up to post-TCoE. The revision part will be written in **bold text** to highlight the content.

The revision of fighter subclass included:

* Arcane Archer
* Battle Master
* Cavalier
* Champion
* Purple Dragon Knight
* Samurai

There won't be a revision of some subclass that can hold their ground by themselves or with the help of my martial optional feature & Mercy's martial progression:

* Eldritch Knight
* Psi Warrior
* Rune Knight

### Arcane Archer

Arcane Archer has a potential to be the equivalent of Battle Master in term of versatility. There are many interesting option in their Arcane Shot. And I think it's okay to give them a little more option.

#### Arcane Shot
*3rd-level Arcane Archer feature*

When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you learn arcane shots that are fueled by **Arcane Ammo**.

**Arcane Shot.** **You learn three empowered shots of your choice, which are detailed under “Arcane Shot” below. Many arcane shot enhance an ranged weapon attack in some way. You can use only one arcane shot per turn. An arcane shot counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.**

**You learn two additional arcane shots of your choice at 7th, 10th, and 15th level. Each time you learn new arcane shots, you can also replace one arcane shot you know with a different one.**

**Arcane Ammo.** **You have 4 Arcane Ammo. An Arcane Ammo is expended when you use it. You regain all of your expended Arcane Ammo when you finish a short or long rest. You gain Arcane Ammo at 7th level and one more at 15th level.**

**Saving Throws.** Some of your Arcane Shots require your target to make a saving throw to resist the maneuver’s effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

Arcane Shot save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + **your Strength or Dexterity modifier (your choice)**

#### Magic Arrow
*7th-level Arcane Archer feature*

**Removing this feature.**

\columnbreak

#### Arcane Step
*10th-level Arcane Archer optional feature*

**As a bonus action, you can magically teleport up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space you can see. You can use this trait a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.**

#### Twin Arcane Shot
*18th-level Arcane Archer optional feature*

**You can use up to two arcane shot per turn.**

##### Revised Arcane Shot Options
* **Seeking Arrow** Using divination magic, you grant your arrow the ability to seek out a target. When you use this option, this attack gain a +10 bonus to your attack roll. The arrow ignores three-quarters cover and half cover. The arrow deals an extra 1d6 force damage. The force damage increases to 2d6 when you reach 18th level in this class.

##### Additional Arcane Shot Options

* **Splitting Arrow.** When you make an attack with a ranged weapon, you can expend one Arcane Ammo to fire a piece of ammunition that splits into two, targeting two different creatures within 10 feet of each other with the same attack roll. At 18th level, the piece of ammunition splits into three, targeting up to three different creatures.
* **Teleporting Arrow.** When you make an with a ranged weapon, you can expend one Arcane Ammo to teleport to within 5 feet of the target of the attack (the target of an attack does not need to be a creature), the maximum range you can teleport with this is five times your fighter level. If the attack hits a creature you can attempt to swap places with it, that creature must pass a Charisma saving throw or is teleported to your current location when you teleport.

\pagebreakNum

### Battle Master

Using the same feature.

> ##### Combat Superiority
> If you use my fighter's martial optional feature, the Battle Master subclass will have 50% more use of their Combat Superiority dice. As a DM, you could say that if the player choose Battle Master subclass, they can only have one feature of Combat Superiority (not both). If an overpowered fighter is what you concern about.
>
> If it was up to me, as in my table. I would say it's okay that they could take both. It increases the versatility and options of a martial class which is the main purpose of this compendium. A maneuver like: Ambush, Commanding Presence, and Tactical Assessment are more utility or roleplay focused, they are overshadowed by the important of combat as a fighter in original 5e version.

### Cavalier

The revised Cavalier is an archetype related to a mount riding fighter, as the name suggests. Many of the revised or new feature is intended to support the playstyle of a mount riding cavalier.

#### Born to the Saddle
*3rd-level Cavalier feature*

Starting at 3rd level, your mastery as a rider becomes apparent. You have advantage on saving throws made to avoid falling off your mount. If you fall off your mount and descend no more than 10 feet, you can land on your feet if you’re not incapacitated. Mounting or dismounting a creature costs you only 5 feet of movement, rather than half your speed.

**As a bonus action, you can conjure part of your fighting spirit as a mighty steed. The steed shares your initiative and you can verbally command the steed (no action required by you). While your steed is within 1 mile of you, you can communicate with each other telepathically. See its game statistics in the accompanying Mighty Steed stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places.**

**You can't have more than one steed at a time. You can also dismiss your steed at any time as an action, causing it to disappear.**

#### Unwavering Mark
*3rd-level Cavalier feature*

Starting at 3rd level, you can menace your foes, foiling their attacks and punishing them for harming others. When you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack, you can mark the creature until the end of your next turn. This effect ends early if you are incapacitated or you die, or if someone else marks the creature.

\columnbreak

While it is within 5 feet of you, a creature marked by you has disadvantage on any attack roll that doesn’t target you.

In addition, if a creature marked by you deals damage to anyone other than you, you can make a special melee weapon attack against the marked creature as a bonus action on your next turn. You have advantage on the attack roll, and if it hits, the attack’s weapon deals extra damage to the target equal to half your fighter level.

Regardless of the number of creatures you mark, you can make this special attack a number of times equal to your **proficiency bonus**, and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.

#### Warding Maneuver
*7th-level Cavalier feature*

At 7th level, you learn to fend off strikes directed at you, your mount, or other creatures nearby. If you or a creature you can see within 5 feet of you is hit by an attack, you can roll 1d8 as a reaction if you’re wielding a melee weapon or a shield. Roll the die, and add the number rolled to the target’s AC against that attack. If the attack still hits, the target has resistance against the attack’s damage.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to **your proficiency bonus**, and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.

**In addition, your Mighty Steed attack counts as magical. It can also perform Warding Maneuver to defend you. The Steed can use this feature a number of times equal to half your proficiency bonus, and it regains all expended uses of it when it finish a long rest.**

#### First In Line
*10th-level Cavalier feature, which replaces the Hold the Line feature*

After a short or long rest, you can grant your Mighty Steed and yourself a climb, fly, or swimming speed equal to their walking speed. If you choose a swimming speed, they also gains an ability to breath both air and water.

You can shout a rally call to all of your allies. As an action, you choose up to 8 creatures, they can use their reaction to move up to 60 feet toward you without provoking an attack of opportunity. You can use this feature once, and you regain it use when you finish a short or long rest.

#### Master Rider
*15th-level Cavalier feature, which replaces the Ferocious Charger feature*

While riding on your Mighty Steed, you gain the following benefits:

* Creatures provoke an opportunity attack from you when they move 5 feet or more while within your reach, and if you hit a creature with an opportunity attack, the target’s speed is reduced to 0 until the end of the current turn.
* Opportunity attacks against you are made with disadvantage.
* You can't be dismounted against your will if you're conscious.

The design of Samurai is intended to be a very fast and flashy kind of fighter. Which I intend to fulfill on in this revision. It'll be a little anime-ish with some feature but it will fit in samurai aesthetic.

### Way of Shadow

Monks of the Way of Shadow follow a tradition that values stealth and subterfuge. The only things I want to add into this amazing subclass is more skill proficiency and maybe one additional damage. This subclass is great with utility by itself, but usually monk subclass gives them bonus damaging feature in some way.

#### Shadow World
*3rd-level Way of Shadow feature*

You gain proficiency in Stealth and Sleight of Hand.

Once per turn, when you hit a creature after you come out of invisibility, unseen, or when you teleport to an unoccupied space within 5 feet of that creature. The creature takes additional 1d6 psychic damage.

### Way of the Ascendant Dragon

Since this subclass is recently published, most of its feature is already up to date. I would only slightly adjust some feature but stay with its original design.

#### Draconic Disciple
*3rd-level Way of the Ascendant Dragon feature*

You can channel draconic power to magnify your presence and imbue your unarmed strikes with the essence of a dragon’s breath. You gain the following benefits:

**Draconic Presence.** If you fail a Charisma (Intimidation) or Charisma (Persuasion) check, **you can add your Martial Arts die to the roll. You can choose to do this after seeing the roll but before the DM says whether the roll succeeds or fails. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.**

**Draconic Strike.** When you damage a target with an unarmed strike, you can change the damage type to acid, cold, fire, lightning, or poison.

**Tongue of Dragons.** You learn to speak, read, and write Draconic or one other language of your choice.

#### Wings Unfurled
*6th-level Way of the Ascendant Dragon feature*

When you use your Step of the Wind, you can unfurl spectral draconic wings from your back. While the wings exist, you have a flying speed equal to your walking speed **which lasts for 1 minute or until you are incapacitated.**

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

#### Ascendant Aspect
*17th-level Way of the Ascendant Dragon feature*

Your draconic spirit reaches its peak. You gain the following benefits:

**Augment Breath.** When you use your Breath of the Dragon, you can spend 1 ki point to augment its shape and power. The exhalation of draconic energy becomes either a 60-foot cone or a 90-foot line that is 5 feet wide (your choice), and each creature in that area takes damage equal to four rolls of your Martial Arts die on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. **You can spend additional ki point, to a maximum of 5. For each ki point above one, your Augment Breath's damage dies increases by 2.**

**Blindsight.** You gain blindsight out to **30** feet. Within that range, you can effectively see anything that isn’t behind total cover, even if you’re blinded or in darkness. Moreover, you can see an invisible creature within that range, unless the creature successfully hides from you.

### Assassin

I have a lot of fun revise this subclass, the Assassion rogue was meant to be a poison user, a silent murderer, and a disguised spy?

Starting at 3rd level, **when you choose this subclass, your speed increases by 10 feet.**

\columnbreak

### Swashbuckler

The Swashbuckler rogue in my mind is the most frontliner of the rogues, so I give them the extra attack feature and fix some other feature that reset up on a short rest (post-MPMM, every feature that reset on a short rest changes to no of use equals to your proficiency bonus per long rest).

#### Fancy Footwork
*3rd-level Swashbuckler feature*

**At 5th level, when you take the Attack action, you can make two attack with that action. You ignore this benefit if you already have a feature, like Extra Attack, that gives you extra attacks.**

#### Elegant Maneuver
*13th-level Swashbuckler feature*

Starting at 13th level, you can **grant yourself an advantage on the Dexterity (Acrobatics) or Strength (Athletics) check you are make.**

**You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.**

#### Master Duelist
*17th-level Swashbuckler feature*

Beginning at 17th level, your mastery of the blade lets you turn failure into success in combat. If you miss with an attack roll, you can roll it again with advantage.

**You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.**

### Thief

The fun we have with this first and original subclass, the Thief has the most roguish aesthetic. I blush off the dust and fix some wording, give them more reliable mechanic in the same old feature.

#### Fast Hands
*3rd-level Thief feature*

Starting at 3rd level, you can use the bonus action granted by your Cunning Action to make the following actions:

* You make a Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) check **against a creature's Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check. On success, you pickpocket one of the item that the creature is holding or keeping in their container.**
* You can use your thieves’ tools to disarm a trap or open a lock
* You can take the Use an Object action.
* **You can take the Activate an Item action.**

> ##### Activate an Item
> Activating some magic items requires a user to do something in particular, such as holding the item and uttering a command word, reading the item if it is a scroll, or drinking it if it is a potion. The description of each item category or individual item details how an item is activated. Certain items use one or more of the following rules related to their activation.

#### Second-Story Work
*3rd-level Thief feature*

When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you gain a climbing equal to your walking speed.

In addition, **you can jump up to 20 feet without a running start and 40 feet when you make a running jump. As a reaction, when you are targeted by a melee attack, you can attempt to roll away, possibly evading the attack, by moving to an unoccupied space within 5 feet of you. If the space is out of that melee attack range, the attack automatically misses.**

#### Use Magic Device
*13th-level Thief feature*

By 13th level, you have learned enough about the workings of magic that you can improvise the use of items even when they are not intended for you. You ignore all class, race, and level requirements on the use of magic items.

**You learn one wizard cantrip of your choice, Intelligence is your spellcasting ability. If your magic item has a spell save DC and spell attack bonus, your can replace the DC with DC 8 + your Intelligence modifier + your proficiency bonus and replace its spell attack roll with your Intelligence modifier + your proficiency bonus.**
