I have been missing SPECIFIC feedback threads, a lot of good points and suggestions very likely get lost in the static noise and generalizations. Kudos to the OP for this initiative.
DIPPING:
Pros:
+ Cool for the impatient kiddies I guess?
Negatives:
- Unimmersive, lacks internal logic in the setting (esp. the everburning candle).
- Gimmicky. Significant early damage boost (esp. for dual-wielders). The practical limitation to use is PATIENCE/BOREDOM (which comes fast).
- D&D setting has MANY BETTER things that can give the player flaming weapons while not being gimmicky, unwieldy, unimmersive. Please at least TRY to consider actual D&D before the Larian cheese! Implement Green-Flame Blade/Booming Blade cantrips (not-PHB), Flame Blade, Elemental Weapon, Flame Tongue magical weapons, Alchemist Fire flasks, magical/alchemical fire arrows (similar to BG1&2). Poison, either mundane or magical, works too.
