Some things are better and some aren't.

I'm happy that I am using my prepared spells much more often and that it's a chore to move a barrel. I've done everything above ground and think I cast firebolt 3 times . . . That's fantastic, glad they listened to community on cantrips.

With Shadowheart's new stats I'm able to use her as a caster cleric and that's great. Again, well done.

But both in interactions and combat I feel like I'm playing the game on easy mode. Always hitting and always persuading. Why build at all if the dice are loaded? That's what cheats are for.
