Curious if anyone has considered changing subclass features, or allowing options within them to work in their campaigns.
Take the example of the edritch knight, has access to abjuration, and evocation spells.
What if the eldritch knight chose his schools of magic. Or perhaps had abjuration / evocation and one of their choice?
Does anyone believe this would become too broken?
Or perhaps a cleric that worships a nature deity, and therefor has access to the druid spell list and not cleric? Domains would still function as per normal.
A possible fun thing to do is take the warlock and slap the bard or cleric list on it.
In regards to you examples: an eldritch knight can already choose a limited number of non-arbitration/evocation spells (5 total by level 20), a nature domain cleric has some druid spells added as domain spells, and warlock subclasses gain extra spell options from other lists.
Obviously these all exist to a lesser extent than you are suggesting, and if you want to homebrew/ house rule the learning of spells from other lists, it is up to the DMs to allow it.
Yeah, was just trying to get opinion of other players / dms if they thought it would be too broken to be swapping spell lists around.
I personally believe it would make for some very interesting builds and make classes more appealing to the other players in my circle. We seem to revolve around only 3 or 4 classes, and avoid some completely.
