    D&D 5E (2014) Ultimate Sorlock (Coffeelock) villain! How to defeat him? Is It possible? A party vs one

    A band of Bards would destroy that guy hahaha Or 1 level 20 Paladin :)

    D&D 5E (2014) What's the WORST party composition possibly with 4 or 5 characters?

    I think a band of Bards would make a pretty solid team. Surely if you have multiple Bards, each Bard could have a single Inspiration die going at a time? I think a party of Monks would struggle in a lot of situations. A party of Druids sounds really boring too.

    D&D 5E (2014) What's the WORST party composition possibly with 4 or 5 characters?

    I think a party of all Clerics or Paladins would be great at any level. I'm trying to imagine how ridiculous a party full of level 20 Wizards or Sorcerers would be. Somebody mentioned all Life Clerics but I think that would be epic. Sure combat would take forever, but who is going to kill that...

    D&D 5E (2014) What's the WORST party composition possibly with 4 or 5 characters?

    Oh did I forget to mention that the Beast Ranger parties' beasts were a cat, rat, bat, and hat? :lol:

    D&D 5E (2014) What's the WORST party composition possibly with 4 or 5 characters?

    How about a party of all Beast Rangers? haha When I made this thread, I figured most of the answers would end up being a party of all one class. I guess that really is the worst possible thing to do. I'm having trouble coming up with any answer that involves 4 or 5 different classes.

    D&D 5E (2014) What's the WORST party composition possibly with 4 or 5 characters?

    And I mean reasonably built characters too not a Barbarian with 6 in Str and Con or a Wizard with 3 Int. Discuss! haha

    D&D 5E (2014) Help me pick! 5th level Character for X-mas

    Tempest Cleric - Minotaur or Firbolg(both are "wise" and fit what you're going for) Background - Uthgardt, Pirate, or Sailor fit here Str 15 Dex 13 Con 14 Int 12 Wis 20 Cha 13 AC 18 with Plate, AC 20 with Plate + Shield Battleaxe, Handaxe, horns(evil Clerics typically use axes instead of maces)...

    D&D 5E (2014) What is the "best" character for ONLY levels 1-4

    My vhuman Tempest Cleric has been an absolute nightmare for my DM from the very first encounter. I took Heavy Armor Mastery feat at level 1 so he's extra tanky. He's a total encounter stopper with his Tempest abilities. This is easily the most OP character I have ever had using point buy. I...

    D&D 5E (2014) The best 1 level dip for fighter?

    This IS an interesting question since the Fighter is usually not looking for such a dip. I don't think we can answer fully without knowing what type of Fighter you intend this to be? Melee? GWF? TWF? Archer? Battle Master? EK? Dex based? Str based? I think a 1 level Barbarian dip is logical...

    D&D 5E (2014) 2017 Class Rank Survey: results are in!

    Not surprised about the Tempest Cleric as I've found it to be not only extremely fun to play, but also extremely effective. What am I missing with the Divination Wizard for it to be ranked so good? (excuse my ignorance) I haven't played one yet, but the Undying Warlock does not seem to be so...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Homebrew] Defensive Duelist

    Well it wouldn't be "free". It would cost a feat to get and a reaction to use, and just like the current feat, it's usefulness would depend on level, and only count against melee attacks.

    D&D 5E (2014) I don't care anymore! The Magic shope is OPEN!

    I run a very laid back heavily homebrewed campaign in which I allow the characters to purchase feats. 10,000gp for the first, and then the prices doubles for each subsequent feat. They have to pay the gp AND learn the new feat in downtime. The players love it and they've all bought at least 2...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Homebrew] Defensive Duelist

    I want to start off by saying that I like this feat more than most people. You get to decide to use it AFTER the attack results so it should have a nearly 100% success rate. Causing an attack that would have hit to miss is a damn good use of my reaction. Sure there are other good reaction...

    D&D 5E (2014) Do you prefer to fight with melee or ranged weapons?

    I much prefer melee. I like my characters to be tough and be up in the thick of things. It's probably why I've yet to play a Wizard, Lore Bard, or Sorcerer in 5e. I won't hesitate to admit how strong Archery is though, and a character that can be strong in melee AND range is best mechanically. I...

    D&D 5E (2014) Fun with Assasins

    I have to agree with DocMoriartty. A properly played "smart" Assassin would probably kill an entire group. You would have to downplay it's abilities or at least make him a less capable Assassin. A smart Assassin is not going to get into a fair fight. A REALLY smart Assassin would kill an entire...

    D&D 5E (2014) Paladin: Why Are They Often Considered Highly Powerful?

    Paladins do have good staying power. The party could be on their 20th encounter of the day, and all spell slots, Lay on Hands, and Channel Divinity could be exhausted, and the Paladin can still be effective with a high AC, decent normal weapon damage, and the ALWAYS on Auras.

    D&D 5E (2014) Paladin: Why Are They Often Considered Highly Powerful?

    I'm one of those people who consider the Pally to be among the most powerful classes, if not the single most powerful. Pretty much everything has been mentioned at this point, but I'd like to point out one thing that has only been hinted at. Having a Paladin in the party makes the entire...

    D&D 5E (2014) Help with power gaming

    I like your Aasimar idea and I would probably go 18 Char, 14 Dex, and 14 Con, but 16 Char, 16 Dex, and 14 Con would be good too. I'd be tempted to start Warlock with a 14 Dex for light armor. This may not be the popular choice, but I really like the Moderately Armored Feat for Warlocks. It lets...

    D&D 5E (2014) Help with power gaming

    The popular is Warlock 2/Sorcerer 18 to spam Quickened Eldritch Blast + Agonizing Blast which is very strong if not boring. It's 4d10+Char mod x4 at level 5. You could go Warlock 3/Sorcerer 17 and get a Pact Boon while still getting your 9th level spell. You'll lose an ASI though. Either way...
