What new feats have gotten creative juices flowing? Any synergy? DMs rebranding setting specifics?... constructive ideas please, though feel free to mention nonbos if anyone idea does not work RAW
Well, some ideas I have for combinations

  1. Short Rest Superstar Build now combined with maximum Inspiration Build:
    1. Either Monk with at least one level of Warlock or Sorlock
    2. Human because it is feat heavy.
    3. The Feats needed: Musician, Tireless Reveler, Lords Alliance Agent, Inspiring Leader, Chef
    4. You make a lot of attacks, you have high chance to crit and thus spread inspiration around, you rely on short rest but with Musician, Inspiring Leader and Chef your party will want to shrot rest too.
  2. Holy Harper Hobgoblin
    1. Hobgoblin from Mordekainen's Monsters of Multiverse, the one who can use help as a bonus action and give extra benefits
    2. Feats: Harper Agent, Harper Teamwork
    3. Fighter 1/Celestial Pact Warlock 6
    4. Slow weapon mastery
    5. True Strike with Agonizing and Repelling Blast
    6. Your turn ins: Action to True Strike, deal Radiant damage, meaning you push enemy 10 feet, slow them 10 feet, deal 3x CHA on a hit and then use Help as a bonus action to aid your allies
    7. Also works with Rogue in place of Fighter, more damage with sneak attack for less defense from armor and shield proficencies of Fighter
I am also thinkering with some sort of build using Purple Dragon Commandant and Boon of Bloodshed, but I need to research this one a bit more.

That short rest superstar sounds fun. That feat assortment can certainly make for a quirky, non-traditional monk. I can imagine an insufferable "rise and shine" get-up-&-go character. Or like a military bugler+stand-in cook and latrine cleaner :)
