Looking back at this, I hadn't taken into consideration that you could already move through allies squares. I guess the only thing Mobility adds is the ability to hit a target and not incur a AoO if I move away. That isn't really that great - I'd rather just get a +2 Dex instead of the feat and...

Hmmmm. Very good point, I wasn't thinking of it in that manner. But back to the point at hand - I'm being a Dex halfling fighter.

Ah, you are correct. Creatures of small size use Heavy Weapons at Disadvantage (PHB, pg. 147), but suffer no penalty for Heavy Armor, other than the standard no Dex AC bonus. That seems odd. Still, like I said, being Dex just makes more sense for my character RP-wise. It seems silly that a...

The halfling Dex fighter (battlemaster) is all things set for my character already due to RP reasons - I'm playing the most non-stereotypical halfling ever. He doesn't joke, isn't perpetually happy and find the antics of his race humiliating (and he wants to establish a halfling military horde...

Because I can? I'm a halfling, so I can't use any heavy armor due to size. I've got studded leather armor, the best basic medium armor from what I can tell, along with a shield... but I'm not a meat shield, either. 14 Con and 17 AC currently. Not bad, but three or four baddies start swinging at...

When asking questions on boards, I've seen responses in the past that veer towards "you shouldn't do X, it's inferior to Y" as replies instead of addressing the topic at hand. More of a precaution than anything..

And it's funny. :)

True, but that limits me to one attack. Which works fine for low levels, but wastes Attacks once I hit level 5. At that point, I will only have one Feat/Ability Score increase, so I'll have to find the best way to utilize my build. Especially since I'm considering foregoing a Feat altogether at...

Five man party, fighter (myself), mino barb, human ranger, half elf cleric and a human warlock. We're a motley crew of sub-optimal all around, minus the mino barb (who I'd be hiding behind).

I'll admit I haven't looked too close at the two weapon fighting - can I select multiple targets with one Attack action with weapons?

For RP reasons, I'm locked into being a fighter. And I've got some other ideas of how to be effective in combat, I just wanted to get the boards feedback on if the use of these two abilities together would work. I don't think the difficult terrain would be TOO big of an obstacle (as a halfling...

I did want something with range to be versatile, but I'll give it some thought to be dual wielding instead.

Well, I wasn't able to use a heavy crossbow due to my size, so this left either the normal or the handcrossbow. And with the Loading quality of them, this would limit to me to one Attack per turn (only one Free Action per round, after all). Granted, this is fixed by the Crossbow Expert Feat, but...

Hello ENWorld, Building a Dex-based halfling fighter as a sub-optimal build more for flavor than anything else. Planning on alternating between a hand crossbow and a short sword (with possible back up weapons on hand as necessary). I'm looking at the Halfling Nimbleness Racial Trait, which...
