Test the Illrigger Revised
Added 2023-05-26 18:00:04 +0000 UTCHey MCDM Fans,
It’s time to raise Hell … again! Today begins our beta playtest of a new product, The Illrigger Revised.
You may remember that in April 2021, we put out The Illrigger on our shop and Patreon. Since that time, many players have had a devil of a good time bringing a little more fire and brimstone into their games.
But, our fearless archdevil, Colvillus, Lord of the Hidden Eighth City, wasn’t satisfied with the first incarnation of this damned digital document. Lo, we struck a deal with infernal powers to forge a new version of the illrigger. That deal was also struck with the product’s lead designer Sadie Lowry and with game designer Mario Ortegón.
This version of the class still drips with fiendish flavor, but it has been rebalanced to better progress with the rest of the fifth edition classes and provides more options for customization. It also contains two new subclass options: the devilishly charming Hellspeaker and the blood-magic-wielding Sanguine Knight.
Now we need your help. You can check out The Illrigger Revised here: https://mcdm.gg/IllriggerOpenBeta
Once you review the playtest materials, please complete the playtest survey linked below:
https://forms.gle/acBnFdRkDoPpTvj29
It may look long, but most of the questions are optional. As a heads up, we want to know what you like and dislike about the class. We don’t need you to fix the problems you find. In fact, it’s better if you don’t. You can simply say, “This is overpowered,” or “This is too complicated to be fun,” and let us figure out how to fix it.
This playtest ends on 6/9 at noon Eastern, which is also when the survey closes. We’ll have a second test after we get a chance to review your feedback and make revisions.
Once this version is ready for release, we’ll update the files for anyone who has purchased the Illrigger on our shop and we’ll also update it on the original illrigger Patreon post.
You can come chat about The Illrigger Revised and other MCDM products on the MCDM Discord.
Ab Inferno,
James Introcaso

Outside of some original grumblings from a couple folks saying the IR were OP, I didn't realize there was a need or desire for a revise. I thought the majority loved the IR as is.

2023-05-28 13:53:31 +0000 UTCThis should be the same as the Interdict save DC. - James

2023-05-28 13:53:06 +0000 UTCIt doesnt say, but the number that seems the most apropriate would be the interdiction DC, but it is a Con based DC and this seems much more like a charisma based ability either way would be 8+Prof +Con or Cha depending.
2023-05-28 05:30:46 +0000 UTCThe level 15 feature silver tongue of the hellspeaker mentions a wisdom saving throw but it doesn’t mention what number is a save. Anyone figure this out or have one they consider balanced ?
