    D&D 5E Best Adventurer's League single classed gish that is a full spellcaster

    Touche good sir, blanked on the single class hard. With that said, to previous poster, you take Fighter levels first for Heavy Armor and Con Save proficiency.

    D&D 5E Best Adventurer's League single classed gish that is a full spellcaster

    Taken from personal experience: 1. Top choice is V. Human Fighter 2/Abjuration Wizard 18 No other choice even comes close. Action Surge + Simulacrum + Contingency = you are literally your own party and don't have to rely on anyone. Infinite casting of Shield = always full Abjuration shield...

    Optimizing Tempest Cleric

    1. Dump Dexterity and some Con 2. Get Charisma up to 13/14 3. Past level 6 for Tempest, multiclass into Sorcerer. Use Booming Blade as your standard damage (or Shocking Grasp if you need some room), upcast Chromatic Orb against single targets (max damage = bye bye) and later Lightning...

    D&D 5E What Rules do you see people mistake or misapply?

    Didn't read the long thread, but one of the most incorrectly applied rules: Concentration "checks" It is NOT a "check". It is a "Save" which means it applies all things that apply to saves, including proficiency, Bless, Resistance, etc. Additional rules not applied properly: 1. Readied...

    D&D 5E +1 sword or Flame Tongue- or both?

    Stop. No, Flametongue doesn't need a +1. Think about it this way. Would you give your PC a Greatsword that automatically Crit on every single hit, and on an actual Crit, did a Fireball spell's worth of damage to a single target? Because mathematically, unless you're fighting Fire...

    D&D 5E Why Green Flame Blade is Over Rated- And You Are Doing it Wrong.

    There are builds/classes that benefit from GFB significantly, notably Draconic (Fire) Sorcadins. Getting to drop your Charisma bonus to your 1 melee hit is pretty nice.

    D&D 5E Why Green Flame Blade is Over Rated- And You Are Doing it Wrong.

    First wrong assumption.....Rogue's use GFB. They don't. They use Booming Blade + Disengage/Swashbuckler.

    D&D 5E Best Crit-Fisher Builds

    What exactly is "Elven Accuracy"? The two best races for a crit-fishing build is either a Greataxe wielding Half-orc (brutal critical) or a PAM + Quarterstaff wielding Halfling (can reroll the 1s from Reckless Attack for every greater chance of critting).

    D&D 5E Two vs. thousands

    That wouldn't work. My use of Antipathy is much better because you need the Orcs to have Line of Sight for several hours to ensure they have all failed enough times to clear them from the encampment. If it's cast on your robe, it means they have to see you and be within 60ft before they need...

    D&D 5E Crawford on Stealth

    I could see this being a decent rule, but now DMs MUST keep track of Lighting rules. Anything in darkness (underground etc) is an automatic -5 to Passive Perceptions because it's in Dim Light. Way too many DMs confusion Perception with Investigation. Also, read the "Finding a Hidden Object"...

    D&D 5E Two vs. thousands

    Just FYI, this wouldn't work without a Simulacrum. Spells with casting times of more than 1 Action (Teleportation Circle) require Concentration to cast during that time, which would drop the Wall of Force. Better off using Demiplane or Mords Mag Mansion then work from there.

    D&D 5E Two vs. thousands

    You only need 1 character if level 18 is the cap. Level 18 Wizard of either Illusion (cheating) or Evocation (hilarious). Several methods: 1. Evoker casts Arcane Eye/Scrying on the hostages. He can now see them, so he casts Meteor Swarm and Sculpts it around the hostages (both the...
