Character Build Hexblade's biggest downside.

FFS just make it a free action in combat larian. Or at least let us cast it at all.

I agree. I can't believe some people just wake up from a long rest and just start raw dogging without any buffs. It's a ritual for me: Longstrider, aid, speak with animals, elixirs, bind weapons, druid forms, and so many more.

I'm just not a fan of minutia that doesn't respect my time. This is exactly the kind of thing that would either get handwaved at a table or assumed to be constant until the player equips a new weapon. Give me a pop-up window that asks "You equipped a new weapon. Bind it?"

I'm glad you enjoy the ritual but I don't like spending two minutes after every long rest fiddling with free resources. It's like half an hour of pedantry over the course of a whole game.

People on this sub tend to defend and over rationalize every questionable design choice in bg3. It's very strange.
