All great ideas. I am working on a new build now and will try to incorporate some of these suggestions. Thank you for the feedback.

That's why you push them away from you and make them, willingly, come to you

We go into more detail in the guide, however for this build we take the first two levels in Paladin, the next 3 in Warlock, 1 more in paladin, then Warlock for 7th and 8th. Paladin again to level 11, Warlock for 12th, Paladin for 13th. Warlock for the rest This distribution gets you weapons/armor prof. While keeping a fast pace to the darkness spell and an keeps undead minions flowing as you level.

Agreed

That sounds awesome, I will have to build that out on dndbeyond and play with it. Would make a great guide for sure.

@@tacticalgamer1634 I built it on D&D Beyond, it’s my “proofing” place.

@jeffersonian000 I will reach out to you directly on this build, I am curious how it play tests at various levels. I rarely use 3 class builds as they tend to have scaling issues but this seems solid. Thanks for sharing.

@@uncommon-arcana8980 No problem. It tops out at level 9, then plateaus. Going Monk after Barb 6 was mostly to fluff out Ki, which is used to hit higher AC over longer fights. Went with Long Death over other options because it fits thematically, but also because the other options other than Drunken or Open Hand end up doing less damage due to not scaling favorably.

Yes this has been discussed. The guide was released prior to Tashas release

Or be creative, make a cool PC and have fun!!!

@@xvader9445 what makes u think a bladesinger isnt cool and fun? Work smarter, not harder. And u dont get to be creative in 5e - u get presets, not building blocks

Or be a rogue for better use od willing movement

@@SlashRules228 yes, rogues. Well-known for their spellcasting...

@@murderyoutubeworkersandceos you are trying to pass it off as a dumb idea, but yes, one off, if not the beat user of boomimg blade, is rogue, and getting it on him couldnt be easier

Agreed, I was trying to shorten the video a bit to get them under 10 minutes but I think I am going to have to resort to 10 to 12 videos to get everyone a better understanding the builds. I think the Hexblade guide does a pretty good job of that. The two new Tank builds coming out will have more info.

Agreed. On our guides post the Hexblade we have stopped that. You can see the Tabaxi Shadowdancer or Grandmaster of the Booming Blade for examples. In truth we are still trying to streamline these videos. Its not a skill set I have naturally. Love the feedback.

I will try to expand on that. I am trying to keep the length of the videos down. They started out around 15 minutes now I have them under 10. I will see what I can do. I am working on the "Tortle Raging Tank" guide now. Ill play with the video format a bit.

Interesting; I would like to play test that out to see how well it works. We added the Sentinel Feat because as we were engulfed in darkness fighting with a few of our summoned undead at our side, the DM would target the our summoned over the player because the attack roll was not at disadvantage which would trigger the Sentinels attack of opportunity for us, of course once this was used several times over several fights the DM would switch tactics to just rolling at disadvantage. Some would even try moving out of Darkness which would also trigger Sentinel again giving us a reaction attack. Reaction Attacks happen often in this build and I am not certain that rerolling a dice would test out better but I think its worth playing side by side to see how well Elven Accuracy works.

This gives me an idea for a new Guide @eli. A crit heavy build combining the Champion with Elven Accuracy and some synergies where they can generate their own advantage. I will have to research that one.

Hah! ... Yeah, its going just a lil bit too fast... Maybe halve the speed?

Rainme, thank you. We are just getting started and videos are not a skillset I have but I am learning.

@@tacticalgamer1634 Well, I believe the most Important and Engaging part in this videos is being clear whenever you speak, and you do that with ease :p Me being a non native English speaker find quite easy to understand you. If I have to say anything, I would like some images straight from the Wiki so I can fully understand what spell you're talking about and have more references so I can fully comprehend the strategy and the combo. Since I'm kinda new in D&D a reference from the wiki really helps, but that's about it, keep up the good work and thank you again!

Agreed. We have started adjusting the layout. The latest Tabaxi guide has that feature static now.

How? Are you sitting there actually WATCHING a video that’s meant to be listened too?

Thank you. I was thinking it might be a bit much!

Interesting combination. Great stat synergy for sure. I will have to play around with that combination to see where the level dips make since but thank you. Anything that thematically leans towards a necromanicer feel is always awesome.

@@tacticalgamer1634 it basically a coffee lock but with enough paladin to causing problems

True, we have a build for that. :)

I can't stand the hand crossbow build. Allowing Crossbow Expert to grant a free second attack with a hand crossbow and allowing the Sharpshooter feat to give both of those attacks a +10 to damage all for a mere bonus action is criminal. Either SS should not work with light weapons or CBE should not give you a bonus action every round. It's stupid that hand crossbows are the strongest DPR ranged weapon. Just wrong.

We are working on new formats for these videos now, we keep this in mind. Thank you for the feedback.

You are only ever holding one hand crossbow. The crossbow feat allows you to ignore the loading attribute. Freeing your off hand to hold the shield.

Great question.

​@@tacticalgamer1634 Nowhere does it say that removing the Loading quality also allows auto-loading! Unless you have a gnomish gadget or the artificer infusion that allows reloading to happen automatically, you still need a free hand to reload! The Crossbow Expert feat does not change this fact.

This build takes several levels in Artificer. I see I used the reference to the Crossbow Expert in the dialogue. I will correct this.

I should clarify that the Artificer levels we take in this build, specifically Repeating Shot Infusion in combination with the Crossbow Expert Feat Makes this possible. No loading aspect of Crossbow Expert and no Ammunition required from Repeating Shot.

Interesting. Will add it to the docket.

@@uncommon-arcana8980 new subscriber really enjoy unorthodox builds that work. So far. Very nice content. 👌

@@dracosdiabolis1769 We are working on a Tabaxi Way of the Shadow Monk and Soulknife Rogue coming up. Stay tuned.

@@uncommon-arcana8980 ah sweet.

Agreed. I need a new format.

@@tacticalgamer1634 but everything else is tops! Great content and presentation 🔥

Incorrect. With spell Sniper, booming blade as well as green flame blade have their range extended to 10 feet. You can see this reflected in dndbeyond as well as RAW. This allows their use with weapons containing the "Reach" tag.

I'm looking at it right now, and the range is still Self, and the area is 5ft. It even shows spell sniper applying to the spell, as it requires an attack role, but since self is essentially 0, doubling 0 is still 0. This is confirmed by Jeremy Crawford, even though that's not technically errata, it gives us the intent of the spell. I wish the spell just said "within your reach" instead of a radius of 5ft. Distance Spell and Spell Sniper only effect the range, not the radius of a spell. If you cast ice knife, it would go twice as far, but still only have a 5ft burst effect.

Add the Spell Sniper Feat and look at the spell choices you receive. Im not currently where I can look to see how this is displayed on dndbeyind but I will. I know the selections come with the Feat. Need to see how dndbeyond applys it when casting.

To confirm that spell sniper does work with Booming Blade and Green-flame Blade please see: webnews21.com/spell-sniper-5e-work-booming-blade/ "That was verified by Jeremy Crawford in Connection with a somewhat similar spell, 5e green flame blade here." Also via dndbeyond and the changes as of the release of Tashas. www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/rules-game-mechanics/86403-booming-blade-changes-in-tashas.

As a correction, @Cody Dwyer is correct. With the release of Tasha's Cauldron, they have changed the range of Booming Blade and Green-Flame Blade from 5 feet to "Self, 5 feet" In this respect the synergy with Spell Sniper is broken. I can't help but feel as though this range change within TCoE was specifically implemented to break this combination. The down side to guides in an environment where rules can change.

That build does not use a shield.

Love the feedback, will do on the guides moving forward.

I'm working on the next guide now, let me complete that and I will darken the color and change the font. Look for an updated version.

Bentron if you email at uncommonarcana@protonmail.com I will send you over a copy of the Full guide. That way you don't have to wait for the video upload. I am just getting this channel started and have a lot of guides coming up I value criticism to help me streamline my videos.
