    D&D 5E [GUIDE] The Sorlock – Guide to the tormented divine soul with Xanathar's Divine Soul(17)+Hexblade(3) [Updated 12/20/21]

    Likely they’re concerned about impacting the party they’re with. Really looking forward to the 12/8 build when there’s time - I’m looking at 14Sorc/6hex so I’m curious to hear what you’ve got as bonuses for 12/8.

    D&D 5E Trying to build a pole arm fighter

    it's really of marginal utility, though. It SOUNDS powerful, but you're really only safe from kobolds and other ~ 1d6 damage rolls. Once you're past lvl 2 or 3, you'll very rarely fight things that do under 2d6 or that don't have +3 or +4 str mods. After that, Heavy Armor Master might on...

    D&D 5E Trying to build a pole arm fighter

    Agreed, there's nothing in the Halberd description or combat rules that precludes using the halberd at 5'. I question the utility of Heavy Armor Master, though. Feats are a precious resource, and intelligent play of a reach weapon will actually MINIMIZE the utility of HAM (as you'll mostly be...

    D&D 5E Dungeonscape no more?

    Not hardly. Sadly, the beta was in sad shape. Last time I used it, it didn't even add Con bonus to HP. You couldn't multiclass, it was a mess, stuff didn't work all over the place. It would be more accurately termed alpha software, it didn't really even hit basic functionality in the character...

    D&D 5E What technology do you own that you are willing to bring to the table?

    Perigorn, what size TV is that? Looks like you're just laying it flat on the table, with minis on top? My own usage works like so for now: Laptop facing me, with a large LCD monitor on the other side facing the players; this functions as DM Screen, and also allows me to use Roll20 to show...

    D&D 5E Best 1st level feat for human warlock?

    Plus, doubled range with your CC spells later on is nothing to scoff at.

    D&D 5E Action Econ 101

    Correct.

    D&D 5E Action Econ 101

    Citation? I agree it gives an extra action, but I didn't see anything about getting an additional bonus action.

    D&D 5E Monk Attacks Question

    Note that you can only Flurry of Blows once per Turn, so in your example sequence you could move, Attack 1, Bonus Action(Flurry of Blows), move, Attack 2. Since you only get one bonus action per turn, you can only flurry once.

    D&D 5E Lost Mines *SPOILERS* Thundertree comments...

    Sounds like the party is coming to Thundertree late in the module - the walkover is partly consequence of that. They've already defeated Glasstaff and the wizard at Old Owl Well. Honestly, I wouldn't change much - your guys just picked a fortunate sequence to do the events in. Imagine how...

    D&D 5E For cantrips is "level" level or class level?

    Actually I think even that is total level, but you only get new invocations when you go up in WARLOCK level...so you could say go warlock 2/Whatever 17/Warlock 1 and pick up an invocation like Lifedrinker or or Master of Many Forms as your 3rd invocation known (and change one of your existing...

    D&D 5E The indispensable Bard. Small parties and 5th wheels.

    I think you're on the money with bard, paladin, ranger. That would be a completely workable team.

    D&D 5E Warlock, Pact of the Blade, Melee

    You're missing the extra d10+3 damage you get to Eldritch Blast at Character level 5 and 10. ( five and ten, right folks?)

    D&D 5E Warlock, Pact of the Blade, Melee

    Ah, that's a shame. It opens a bucket of tactical options for guys who can shove/pull/etc

    D&D 5E Warlock, Pact of the Blade, Melee

    Also I think it's easy to overlook, but using Eldritch Blast with someone in your face imposes Disadvantage on the Warlock. The Blade Pact warlock doesn't care, though - and can still stack Hex and Agathys and weapon and str and cha if he so chooses. Interesting thought re: repelling blast and...
