I'll have Spell Secrets would give me shield but there may be other spells that are better for that choice.
The campaign doesn't have a lot of fighting. We have a barbarian, wizard and sorcerer and moon druid....so our back-line is pretty deep and our 'front line' is a bit shallow. I might have to focus on mobility...
Armor of agathys would be much much better for you than shield. With your dex the extra hp will go a lot further and if it's melee attacks then you have a nice surprise to give back
Thanks for the invite!
Might I suggest the Alert Feat. (He's old yes but he's still got his faculties and he may be a little paranoid enough to keep him awake). Alert: Never be surprised and Go first if you can. Then you can Bane/Greater Invisibility/Synaptic Static/Dimension Door/Misty Step/Mirror Image/or anything else before they get a go. Bamph, Hide or De-buff their next attacks before they know it.
I also second Inspiring Leader. 15 THP is not only not bad for you, but then you don't feel guilty standing behind the buffed Barb or the Giant Constrictor while they take the damage.
Have you played this guy yet? Always interested in hearing about actual play of Bards.
Playing a bard now but one bit of info... I am normally a proponent of 16 stat then feat but bard has a big drive for 18 and 20 cha as soon as possible.No I haven’t played him yet. If I go 2 feats that means only 18 charisma. Do you think that’s ok? Chances are I will level to 11th very soon(the party is overdue) but 11th will be a long haul but I can probably wait until 12th for the boost.
Your suggestion of bane is interesting and synaptic static looks awesome. There isn’t much combat overall. Lots of plotting and then big fights. I was looking at a lot of the utility spells. The group is trying to organize a resistance against the theocratic government so long range communication and propaganda spells would be useful. It’s a campaign where skywrite is an actual useful spell. But I need some good support for those big fights also. And so many choices for Spell Secretd...
Got any advice for useful bard tricks of the trade or spell combinations?
