    Important thing to be said: if you're lucky enough to lay your hands on a magic armor - use it for your guardian armor. There is no requirement to it to be a mundane armor.

  • @d.nazaratiy
    @d.nazaratiy 12 дней назад

    One option to improve this build even further is to use Arcane Propulsion Armor infusion at level 14. There are debates if this is stackable with your special armor since rules are a bit unclear, so you have to discuss it with your DM. But most agrees that you can do it and gain the following advantages: + 5ft of movement + your gauntlets are now melee/ranged + extra dice of force damage on top of thunder damage (however this is the most debatable part so it might be resolved as force damage on range attack, thunder damage on melee)

    I'm currently in a party that will soon transition into Tier 3 play. I have already indicated to the party that I am going to include the Darkness + Devil Sight combo as part of my strategy. I have had positive feedback so far...I will coordinate with interested players... If others would rather stand out in the open (bait) as the ancient wyrm chooses its next target/s, who am I to impinge on their rights? We all get to make choices and we all get to deal with the associated consequences.

    Mathematically speaking, a hemispherical dome is a rotational dome made by rotating a shape around a central vertical axis (i.e. Stand a semicircle straight up with its flat side as the base and then spin it). Hemispherical domes are based on semicircles, not arcs. Semicircles have bottoms, therefore hemispherical domes should have bottoms as well, in theory. The difference between a hemisphere and a hemispherical dome is that the dome's interior is hollow. So Wall of Force's hemispherical dome option should have a floor. Tiny Hut just has conflicting wording. The range is hemisphere, a filled shape that has a floor (which makes sense because it affects the full area inside of it). However, the text of the spell just calls it a dome (not a hemispherical one as you point out) and says that it is "around and above", which contradicts the hut being a hemisphere. So Tiny Hut could go either way.

My party has quite a bit of freedom on character builds. I don't wanna tell them no. It's suppose to be fun right?! 🤣🤦 Long story short? They're level 10.. But you'd think they were 20 by looking at these builds.... Bugbear path of the Giant barbarian with polearm master and sentinel. <---thorn in my a$$... And a Monk (subclassed fighter) that seems to never run out of attacks... I want them to have fun. But they're walking through everything I'm setting up. Even after I boost the stat blocks and HP of everything they encounter. Power gaming like crazy. I guess I don't even really understand how they're having fun at this point. Like... COD story mode on easy vibes.

    Long jump distance calculated is for the round. Like other speeds. If you jump your max jump distance, that's its. Even if you have more move remaining. Example. Strength score of 20 means you can standing jump 10 feet. That's it. Not 10 feet as many times as you have movement.

      @@Bilbrons-and-Dragons Very first sentence. "Your Strength determines how far you can jump." I'll admit that it is an interpretable read, but responding to your triple jump example, the all time world record for a triple jump is 51 ft 7 1/2 in. I don't thing a (even very strong) adventurer dashing with a 20 strength can triple jump farther than the best in the world there ever was or has been.
