Over on github, while working a ticket, I was approached and asked that we possibly explore mimicking the pathfinder adjustments for spells. I can see that the thread for this in pathfinder was started by one of the devs: http://forums.wolflair.com/showthread.php?t=11561 but I personally don't have pathfinder so I'm not sure what this entails, or if this would require LW to open up some tables for us in 5e?

Regardless, I know that many of the adjustments we have now can be used to mimic spell effects such as AC bonuses, attack and damage bonuses. I think we're lacking resistances and immunities, which should be easy enough though, but I'm sure there are other odder spell adjustments that might come along.

Thoughts?

Spells in 5e are largely just informational. They don't really do anything other than display neatly for us to read. I suspect LWD will need to change this significantly once HLO becomes a thing. They have talked about the ability for a player to use HLO to cast a spell on another player using the tool. So for this to work the ways 5e spells (all of them ) would need to be changed to make that possible.

So I suspect there is going to be change required here. On quite a large scale that I for one am not looking forward to.
