Oh, replies!!!! :lol: I had given up on this thread... I am so happy! Going back to read through them and I'll edit here. Oh, and thank you very much! Edit: UngeheuerLich: You are absolutely right. I wont try to defend myself. At least I had the decency to tell the DM. @Ovarwa: I think I'll...

Gonna be joining a SKT campaign soon-ish. I will be playing a divination wizard, starting @ lvl 8. The rest of the party are martials (2 archers and 3 frontliners). They are having a pretty hard time from what I hear. Anyway, I would like some help with my spell selection and combat tactics (I...

Weirdly enough, stoneskin. It's going to be a 1-shot and I was hoping to check exactly how bad a hexblade1/phoenix14 would do in melee. In all likelihood it is going to be an epic fail, but at least I will go out with a :n:. Will definitely pick up at least one more concentration spell, probably...

Hi! Very interesting guide. I am building a fire themed sorcerer, yet I found myself being drawned back every once in a while to this guide (a place for nerdy wizards!;)), to get help with my spell selection. I would like to get a good set of fire spells, while also trying to keep the selection...

If you are having difficulty explaining how to acquire the warlock levels during the campaign, then just start with warlock and incorporate the explanation into your backstory. Pick the criminal background to better explain the coming rogue levels. As far as fighter, it is the easiest dip to...

I prefer find steed, because if the frog dies, you can simply cast the spell to bring it back. Safer option. Moreover, with find steed, you can share buffs with the frog, such as armor of agathys (if you grab it as one of your magical secrets). This will help a lot with the frog's survivability...

Crit-fishing with a melee build... 1) I think the most important thing is to have a reliable source of getting advantage. The best one imo is reckless attack (spells might not work or counterspelled/dispelled, familiars/mounts can die, abilities that recharge on rests or expend resources might...

Maybe it's worth mentioning how the ancient's lvl 7 aura of warding can play well with wild magic, especially since it is not the only reason to go that high with paladin (you mentioned most of the reasons up to 6, apart perhaps that the few extra hp would help you be closer to enemies for...

Good point. You take polearm master first, it will actually be more useful for you than the other two feats at lower levels. You sure can, since your OA still uses your polearm. That assumes a reach weapon and increased range for BB, either by spell sniper feat or by using the distant metamagic...

I was considering a dexadin S&B halfelf for that reason (or human with the magic initiate feat, depending on if you prefer a +2 con and halfelf racial features over an extra cantrip and a 1st level spell that you can cast 1/day plus human variant racial features), and possibly with MAM if I...

I have a few thoughts about halfelves, warcaster, and the oath of the ancients. I present them to you. Feel free to include them in your guide if you seem they make sense. Here they are: Imo halfelves make the best OoA paladins (gold for OoA), and warcaster is a feat they simply must take at...

And you can even use twinned metamagic with it, to have it affect two allies. If you can keep your concentration up, and if you cast it at the proper allies (meaning that dpr's wont benefit that much), then it is a good use of slots and sorcery points. T-Rex is one of the stronger forms, giant...

Yeah, I decided to take this spell no matter what. Even if the group I am playing with has another spellcaster with this spell, it is just too useful to pass up. Useful to have if I try to assassinate a spellcaster too if there is no one else with me. I ve done some thinking on disintegrate and...

​The idea is a Paladin2/ Rogue3 (Assassin)/ Warlock 1/ Sorcerer 14. NOTE: Below, I analyze a few aspects of this build. You can skip it and jump straight to the end of the post, reading the edit and the ps part. I am not set on the sorcerous origin, but suppose the unofficial shadow origin...
