Yea our DM seems to almost exclusively use melee so I’m normally in the firing line. Thanks for your help today with my character. I think I’ve got a way forward providing I survive long enough for it to be put in place :-D

Yea survivability seems like a key way to go. I'm leaning towards Tough as i've got defensive fighting style already, it'll boost my hp by 40 to 264 when i'm at level 20.

Resilience Con is actually a fairly good idea! My progression plan with that in mind could be level 8 : Resilience Con - Give me the proficiency on saving throws, be good for helping with concentration savings without having to take warcast and put my Con up to 19 Level 12 : +1 Con / +1 Cha...

I did wonder about duelling, could pick up fighting initiate at level 8 and go from there. I'm currently using it verstile and mixing in two handed with one handed. Would you recommend capping strength up to 20 too? Sunlight sensitivity isn't an issue, to fit in with his homebrew world the DM...

I took Defensive fighting style for the +1ac I took +1/+1 to bump both from 17 to 18. Going +2 to either would have ended at 19, so no net benefit for doing so and if i wanted to cap them down the line i'd need to put a +1 into it down the line one way or other. At least that was my logic at...

Morning All So i've been playing a few sessions as my new character after my old one bit the dust but i'm unsure viability wise of how long shes going to survive or what I can do to improve how I play. It's a level 5 Oath of Ancients Paladin, Dark Elf. My base stats are Str 17, Dex 15, Con 17...

Update post Thank you to everyone for their feedback and advice, really appreciate it. It’s been really interesting and useful to see the different interpretations of the different scenarios, as well as the other options. Due to the mix of cautionary advice, to the point comments about how...

Are we the baddies here

N Never heard of this one but you’re right it seems more his style. He will eventually get it back. They have “an ally” in ravenloft in the form of Gertruda who I’ve adapted to be a Margery Tyrell esc character but who thinks she’s playing Stradh for the betterment of the people, but he’s onto...

Yea this was another option to have it given to the vistani and create a side quest where they have to track down the vistani carrying it. They’ve not really explored them much. Despite going to madam Eva and saving the girl, they kind dumped her and went so it would be good to reuse them a bit...

Yea I wasn’t sure about how the extra dimensional stuff worked and if it works legitimately. This isn’t me trying to ruin the game, it’s honestly hard to explain in text why this is okay, but all I can say is the player is on board. It’s more of a actual challenge between him as a rules buff...

Yea I get that on the surface it seems in a dm tryin to screw over the players. Honestly I could try to explain it but I think actually getting the mechanics of us (it’s a family game) and how we are operating in this game would make less sense than not. All I can say I guess is he’s aware of...

Ideal thank you. I’ll probably go with bag of holding if it works, as I want them to be able to get it back at some point and I guess with a portal hole it’s much harder to do! Good point on the genius part. Would make for an interesting bit of roleplay to see if he’s willing too, I think he’s...

14-10-22 : update post at the end of thread. All sorted, thanks for everyone’s feedback. I’m running Curse Of Stradh and the player holding the sun sword is an Eldritch Knight, who’s bonded to it. I’ve made no secret Stradh now knows he has it will try to get it back because I like messing...
