Both versions of Two Weapon Fighting seem similar to me in that by 5th level both systems would allow 4 attacks for dual wielders. 5.5e requires the Dual Wielder feat, Two Weapon Fighting Style, the Light Weapon Property and Nick to make this work. Essentially scimitar+Dual Wielder feat+Two...

I think the main attraction of Steel Protector is the resistance to BPS. That is a big deal. Heralds get at most 3 2nd level spells slots and if used for Metal Skin that would be competing with Berserker Rage since both are long rest features if used this way. To me, this means it would be...

Thanks guys. I really appreciate all the input and feedback. I agree that martials should be chasing Extra Attack in terms of "adding value". However, I think if players want to be "creative" with their builds then they should and chasing a synergy chain can be just as fun as getting Extra...

Thank you. So, other than finding an external fix or a healthy offering of pizza to the overlord, would you agree that Steel Protector is unusable when a character can get it (8th level) and is an oversight?

I have read this over a few times and I wish I understood what you are trying to convey to me but alas I lack the mental faculties to do so - a confused citizen. So confused that I have translated this to mean that if I level up a 6th level Herald and MC into a fighter I lose spell progression...

Thanks. I am not trying figure out a build. I presented 4/4 as the quickest way to get two feats (and meet the 3/3 requirement). I am just trying to figure out if Steel Protector makes sense as a synergy feat option because it doesn't at the moment and, as I have learnt, there are things that I...

Steel Protector is a synergy feat that requires 3 levels in fighter and 3 levels in herald via Bronze Protector. Bronze Protector is ok as a synergy feat but otherwise not. Steel Protector has potential but it has two taxes: multiclassing and a prerequisite feat. Additionally by the time you can...

Appreciate all your help guys. I never really looked into warlock and now that I have gone this process I really like some of the design choices. I enjoy features that encourage players to invest in the single class and making multiclassing out of it a hard choice - warlocks do this well.

Thanks for helping me out. So here we go again... For clarity, a level 17 melee warlock using Thirsting Blade and Eldritch Scythe gets to decide that they either use: An Eldritch Scythe + Extra blast combo (four attacks); OR Thirsting Blade + two off-hand attacks (four attacks, this is...

Sorry, I updated my post while you were replying. Please read my post again.

This is confusing. These answers seem counter to @lichmaster 's position. Do you guys agree with Lichmaster? My reading of Eldritch Scythe (which may very well be incorrect) is that it requires a melee weapon attack which is then "transformed" into an Eldritch Scythe attack (if the warlock...

Thanks. For clarity, a level 17 warlock using Thirsting Blade and Eldritch Scythe has these options for melee attacks: Two attacks using Eldritch Scythe; OR One Pact of the blade attack and one Eldritch Scythe; OR Two Pact of the blade attacks; OR Using Two Weapon Fighting: One Pact of the...

Damn, A5e Warlocks are the king of swing. I am little confused with this and @lichmaster 's comment. Eldritch Blast requires: 1) using Ray, Scythe or Whip versions; 2) part of your action; 3) not using weapon attacks. If these conditions are met then you may attack twice, three times and four...

And horses, we can't be forgetting them.

Combat traditions are really great. I am not sure what what you call this but A5e combat traditions are easy enough to understand for a new player to jump in and pick good fun stuff and really open for crazy combinations for players that are so inclined. I find that you will almost always have a...

So, hear me out... If you have a medium creature riding a large ogre that is on riding on top of a huge elephant then it would be considered quite a feat to maintain... and henceforth called a mountain :LOL:

What about a huge mount?
