D&D (2024) Which Weapon Mastery is Your Favorite?

[Incenjucar]

Push, so I can shove the enemy into the wizard and make it their problem. Bonus: Using push on an object.

Cleave up ; graze dowwwwwn

 

[mellored]

Push
Simple, resolves on your turn, and works best with teamwork.

Unlike Sap, which requires remembering. Or topple that requires extra rolls....

 

[Minigiant]

Graze is one step closer to AIR SLAAAAAAAAAAAAASH!

 

[Mirrorrorrim]

Push, just because:

Push (10 ft) + Crusher feat (5ft) + Battlemaster's pushing attack (15 ft) for a grand total of 30 ft!

Who needs telekinesis when you have a huge ass hammer?

It's stacked builds and techniques like this that can make the Fighter feel kinda wild.

I picked cleave mostly because I like the throwback to 3e/4e.

I'm not getting vex. I get the game mechanic, but the thought of a monster being confused by a short sword or rapier is strange. Maybe it is the name.

 

[Stalker0]

Graze, I appreciate that THF get some love, and I want my masteries to just work, not have a save or some fiddly condition, just work.

 

[Horwath]

Flex ofc!

Haha,

I picked graze with cleave as close second.

Who voted for Flex anyway?

 

[CleverNickName]

Yeah, Flex is probably the weirdest one.
"Only works on weapons with the Versatile property, and it lets you ignore the Versatile property of weapons."
Um, what?

It's probably the only one I like less than Graze, and that's saying something.

Versatile has always been a ribbon ability. As I've mentioned elsewhere the only time I've actually seen it used as anything other than a once in a blue moon thing was by a 4e brawler fighter who went in with a longsword they used two handed - or one handed when they had someone in a headlock.

And I'd never use it but I'm glad Flex exists for people who want to ignore the whole weapon properties system. Just bump your die size and never think about it again.
