TOPIC: 2024 Rare Token Images < Part Two < NEW BIG NEWS at Post #41

The UR Charm of Trollform has been downgraded to a Rare and thus placed here. Long story...but basically Potions of Polymorph are no more -- and instead replaced by Charms of Polymorph (with a 1/game limit) this year and moving forward. These are designed for newer players and specifically NOT for Legendary Druids.

There have been some nice tweaks here due to great feedback. Thanks.

That is kind of a terrifying statement, but I will trust the process and I am very much looking forward to the new class card designs.

Will Ranger's using Ralson's be able to slide the charm, or should they stock up on poly potions now?

+1. Ralson uses polymorph potions. Do they use the charm without spending it. Nice if yes

Nice! I've always been working on my back up druid build as an aside and never been too crazy about burning potion mechanic so it was always looking at saving up for the shaman necklace on the back burner. This is a much nicer way for druids and elf wizards to play with utility shapeshifting if they have little perks like you can change into a fish and gain waterbreathing without having to burn a potion.

I love it! Can we get the word "polymorph" on the token somewhere, to help new players figure out what it is? Maybe a truedungeon.com/polymorph URL?

Also: to me this feels a little bit like deja vu from the one year of chargeless wands that players loved (nearly universally AFAICT) but was then reverted the following year. You're confident that's not going to happen with poly charms?

Wait wands are chargeable again?

From tokendb.com/token/wand-of-thors-fury/

"General Wand Errata: Chargeless wands debuted in 2018. Although we loved seeing more wands being used, we feel that unlimited-use wands are not the ideal path going forward. Starting at Origins 2019, all wands will be consumable, but wands will no longer have a fixed number of charges. When a player wants to use a wand (old or new), they hand the wand token to the DM. Actions permitting, the player may use this wand as much as they desire for the rest of the room. At the end of the room, any wand token used will be collected by the DM."

It would be unfortunate if Charms of Polymorph ended up similarly errata-ed in a year or so.

I'm genuinely interested in charms as a new path for Polymorph tokens. One small request: Can we reinstate the text that explicitly calls this "polymorph" and clarifies the timing as an Instant Action (or free action or whatever)? I can see the current text leading to confusion about how it interacts with other polymorph tokens, such as the 2022 Charm of the Doppleganger.

Fixed! Please re-load the contact sheet.

Charms = Potions of Polymorph so yes...Rangers can use the Charm to slide with Ralson's.
