Sure. But the Fighter is getting some NICE things, now. I playtested the new Eldritch Knight, and he’s become not only one of my favorite characters I’ve played, but one of the most effective.

Personally, I hope they do get to keep three attacks. I mean, with one Invocation EB is better than a Fighter with a Longbow. They get just as many attacks and they get their fourth one sooner. I don’t understand why adding a third melee attack is so game breaking.

The Battlemaster is the more complex martial. Not only do they have Maneuvers, but they have Weapon Masteries, and they stack. So you can mix and match abilities on a single hit. Both Pushing and Tripping on the same attack, for example.

Yeah. But it's simpler. I know many people who just don't want to deal with complexity. They don't want to deal with strategy. They just wanna cast "Skull Crack" every round. That's what the Champion is for. You don't have to remember anything. it's all on the character sheet. You crit...

Champion Fighters were always the class for the player that doesn't like to read their character sheet and just wants to cast "Skull Crack" every round with their hammer. Lots and lots of passive abilities and very little complexity while still being effective.

I would assume there is no Find Greater Steed, because it looks like the new Find Steed gets better when you upcast it.

Not reading all that. Just came here to say that I playtested the Eldritch Knight, and it made me fall in love with the Fighter. I've had such a hard time playing Fighters in the past. They were just so...bland. They didn't have enough of their own identity. And all they do is hit things...

I am a huge fan of these changes. The Paladin was the Mary Sue of classes. All armor, all weapons, fighting style, spells, spell-less healing, Burst Damage like crazy, a huge boost to not only their own saves but the entire party's saves, Auras that make them immune to so much...like, people...

This is actually very true, and was something I was looking at today. His main weaknesses are his Int saves and Wis saves, both of which were a +1. (Starting class was Sorcerer). Dex is a +5 (20 dex), Strength is +9 (belt), Con is +9, Cha is +11. All mostly decent, and I have Absorb Elements...

Sure. But that 86 is from two attacks, not three. Quicken Green Flame Blade and it's another 60+ damage. Or Quicken cast any spell. PAM requires the bonus action to be valid, GWM frees up the Bonus Action for whatever I need it for, and STILL grants a bonus action attack if I manage a Crit...

Whoops. Double post.

How do you figure? Polearm master lets you have a crappy bonus action attack and lets you hit people who are coming at you. You would need Sentinel as well to keep them from getting close to you. Great Weapon Master with this build grants a static +10 damage to every hit and still have a +13...

Hello! I wanted to share this because I was immensely surprised at how well it appeared to be, and I wanted to see if I’m missing something. I have had the opportunity to create a lvl 20 character for a lvl 20 campaign that will be starting soon. I have run such games before, but never played...

Titus will take the rich clothes. Been a while since he had a new outfit. I’d take the dagger but I came late, so that’s cool. I forgot I had that Cloak of the Wolf, so I have a magic item. I finally updated my character sheet. It’s using the playtest Fighter, and I made it with...

(I am still not getting notifications, lol.) Titus makes sure Blaze is settled and as safe as possible, and joins the others in searching the compound for whatever may be found.

I’m sorry. I haven’t been getting any notifications for these threads, and I am out of the habit of checking. Not having a computer makes it difficult, lol. I’ll try to be better about checking the threads each day.

“That was the plan! Unfortunately it appears I wasn’t needed after all. Oh well. I’m here now, and that’s all that matters. My mind has been…somewhat ravaged by my encounter with, well, whoever it was. Much of my memory is full of holes, and the last few days i remember almost nothing, but I do...

Titus would be early 20’s.

Titus does NOT have Spare the dying. Titus is no longer magically inclined. I need to change his stats in the RG.

Watching the gnoll go down, Titus sighs. So much for his triumphant return. Looking at the half Orc, not remembering if he was a member of the party before Sing-Ax took hold of his mind, Titus simply smiles and says “Good day! And good hit! He won’t be recovering from that!”
