Hope you all enjoy the new build, let me know what spells you might take to recreate Doctor Strange, and let me know if there's anything you might like in a future video! I'll try to post every Thursday so you can have something fun to try with those Weekend One Shots.
@@EveGuyGaming He can cast Necromancer spells. Beyond the healing aspect of necromancy he doesn't mess with it (except for turning his brother into a vampire and live to regret it).
Cloak of Levitation- would be considered a legendary intelligent magic item. There are rules in the DMG for making intelligent magical items and while D&D has a bias toward intelligent magical SWORDS, there is nothing that says you can't create the Cloak using these rules.
The mage hands could also be a reference to how he killed Gargantos in multiverse of madness, I know the movie wasn’t out then but now that is out I’m saying that it could also be a great reference to that. Just a fun fact. My only nitpick is that in the comics he can control the elements meaning that in Endgame he is manipulating the water into a giant whirlpool without using wind, you can see the magic flowing from his hands in a distortion next to his hands. If I played D&D I would use this because it’s epic
I did release the video far before Multiverse of Madness, but I can totally see where you're coming from. I do feel like there is a slight lack of really cool water based spells in DnD, and would love them to be a bit expanded. Although there could be some cool things with the Scribe Wizard, who can change the element of a spell.
Keen mind would also be a good feat that allows the user to accurately recall anything seen or heard within the past month. It's helpful when asking the DM something that would otherwise get left at "you should've written it down".
Great video and editing! I only have one comment about it and that at the very end with the cloak. A much easier route then trying to convince your DM to let you have a CR 8 creature as a pet is to just have the boots of flying flavored as a cape. Just thought I'd throw that out there.
Thanks, I totally appreciate the positive feedback. And yeah I know there's plenty of little flying items, even with like a broom of flying or boots of flying it would have worked. But I just really like the idea of it being able to attack and smother people, as well as have its own sentience. But that's a totally awesome alternative especially when it comes to having a more straightforward way to do it so you don't have to just have an awesome DM that will let you have a creature companion. Or maybe I just like making it harder on myself lol
@@dndbuilds don't get me wrong, I love making things harder on myself. I have been thinking about a Dr strange build for a while but with a monk multiclass for no good reason lol
I know you kind of did a fast forward on the ASI’s, but as a Variant Human with a free feat, I was surprised you did not go Keen Mind there. Otherwise, I think you’re right on with this build.
"DnD Builds, I've come to bargain..." *THOOM!!!* "DnD Builds I've come to..." *THOOM!!!* "You get a sense of deja view? Anyways, I've come to bargain for you doing Dark Scheider from Bastard. " Awaits for the *THOOM!!!* It doesn't happen. "Ok. Thanks."
Dope. I liked the video, thank you. So I may have a solution for the cape. I feel like if I were to tackle it. I would build a magical item from the ground up. Requires Attunement. Gives you a fly speed, at least 30 would be fine. Maybe it gives you a reaction when you are hit with an attack, the cloak can attempt to restrain, blinded and smother them, baring I suppose a STR Save. Of course they can attempt to break it at the end of their turn or with an action. If they fail the save, they have to take the cape off of them before they suffocate and fall unconscious. That number is generally a number of rounds equal to 1+Con mod. I think that's my take on it. Hope this helps someone.
Well I will be posting the character sheet for this build on my patreon this week if you happen to need it in character sheet form. But I'm super happy you liked the build either way, and definitely let me know how the build works out for you in the campaign. I love hearing how they work in a real game.
@@dndbuilds It's me again. Unfortunately the group couldn't get together. And it doesn't look like arrangements to get together will be made again. This is the hard part about long distance friendships.
@@HereForTheComments I know how that goes all too well, I swear the hardest part about having a d&d game has nothing to do with the gameplay, the storytelling, or making characters it's really just the scheduling.
I know your build list is probably massive but watching this and getting to the shield I thought of Mass Effect and the biotic users. Maybe an asari commando/jack/samarra or any biotic on the team. You’re crushing it like I said last time, keep up the amazing work!
I'm somewhat ashamed to say I've never played any Mass Effect game. I was a Sony and Nintendo guy, and since it was originally on Xbox I kind of missed the boat. I'd still be down to do a video about it, but it just might take me a bit longer to research.
@@dndbuilds It’s honestly quite a commitment. With the new remastered edition though there’s a comic you can watch/play and make your major decisions for the first/second games. Highly recommended game, if you have the time lol
What spell could he cast to whipe out the memory of Spiderman's true idenity in everyone in the world? Wish as complicated ritual spell which the GM decided to fub for story ideaa?
When making Doctor Strange I had a mental breakdown trying to make him a Sorcerer and then Warlock before I had to settle on Wizard. I really don't know why I was so frustrated but I hope I don't ever have to see the character sheet again.
Well I definitely struggled a bit with that too, but if you ever want to relive the trauma, I do plan to upload all of my build character sheets to my patreon lol. But I won't blame you for not wanting to open old wounds lol.
Yeah at the time I made this video I really wanted to include some of the timestones abilities in the overall build. And there isn't a great item that works to replicate it. So it seemed to make sense to go this path. But soon after the multiverse of madness came out, I feel like it would have been a bit more fitting to go with a different route.
The fact that you pronounced Cyttorak correctly baffles me because most people think it’s pronounced Sit-Orak when Stan Lee himself (who created the character) pronounced it as Sight-Orak.
Lucario is definitely one I had been planning to do because I've been doing a lot of smash characters, and I'm happy that there's another Gengar fan around, I'll try to do him in the future
@@dndbuilds thank you! I appreciate the reply. Lucario is my favorite Pokémon. With gengar and garchomp being my second and third favorite respectively
The Marvel Comics Doctor Strange: either a 20th level Sorcerer or Warlock, but can cast ALL spells in DnD, plus MORE. There is NO WAY that version can be built in DnD. And yes, he did learn from books, but he no longer actually uses the books, as he casts from memory.
I totally understand that, but actually having intense memory is usually tied to intelligence at least in Dungeons and Dragons, and the only way to have access to all spells is to have insane intelligence, because wizards get access to more spells than anyone else
Absolutely, D&D did add the ability to basically alter the ability scores however you need to so you can use the exact same ability scores, but really I would just move the charisma bonus you get from tabaxi over to intelligence, because dexterity can really help with your armor class. Otherwise the only thing you really miss out on is the healer feat from being a variant human. Otherwise you can pretty much follow this build step for step.
Avocado - 1 hp, randomly has either 16 AC or 8 AC depending on Ripeness. But it's impossible to tell whether or not it's ripe until an attack roll has been made on it.
Hope you all enjoy the new build, let me know what spells you might take to recreate Doctor Strange, and let me know if there's anything you might like in a future video! I'll try to post every Thursday so you can have something fun to try with those Weekend One Shots.
Now that the newest Dr. Strange movie is out. Does this alter your sense of whether or not Dr. Strange would take Necromancy?
@@EveGuyGaming He can cast Necromancer spells. Beyond the healing aspect of necromancy he doesn't mess with it (except for turning his brother into a vampire and live to regret it).
Cloak of Levitation- would be considered a legendary intelligent magic item. There are rules in the DMG for making intelligent magical items and while D&D has a bias toward intelligent magical SWORDS, there is nothing that says you can't create the Cloak using these rules.
I didn't even consider that, that's probably a better option, and will most likely be easier to pull off
@@dndbuilds An intelligent sword sounds like it'd be a great option if you ever decide to build Fran from Reincarnated as a Sword.
Butterflies can be counter spell, the floating disc could just be jump spell.
That would have definitely been a simpler way to handle it, would have saved me a bit of time and investigation lol

Forget the pronunciation, which was great, the fact you even researched that stuff was impressive!

@@dndbuilds don't get me wrong, I love making things harder on myself. I have been thinking about a Dr strange build for a while but with a monk multiclass for no good reason lol
Maybe an intelligent flying carpet, reflavored as a cape/cloak?
I know you kind of did a fast forward on the ASI’s, but as a Variant Human with a free feat, I was surprised you did not go Keen Mind there.

You wouldn't drive me insane, I'm in the same boat.

Came for the Batman build, stayed for the Dr. Strange build. I actually have a new session coming up and I'm shamelessly biting this.

Cloak of levitation well just be a intelligent cloak of flying
Actually, Doctor Strange use time manipulation to refill Thor's beer.
seeing the time stone doesn't glow no he didn't
"We never saw him raise the dead"
Man this is kinda funny after Multiverse of Madness :p
Yeah definitely happy I tried to hammer out that video well ahead of time for that movie
When making Doctor Strange I had a mental breakdown trying to make him a Sorcerer and then Warlock before I had to settle on Wizard. I really don't know why I was so frustrated but I hope I don't ever have to see the character sheet again.

The time stone spells and powers should come from a legendary magical item... thus the time stone...
Yeah at the time I made this video I really wanted to include some of the timestones abilities in the overall build. And there isn't a great item that works to replicate it. So it seemed to make sense to go this path. But soon after the multiverse of madness came out, I feel like it would have been a bit more fitting to go with a different route.
I wonder if the Sorcerer Supreme will be a wizard?
*edit* called it.
Yeah I just couldn't go source for considering how he actually uses his magic
"never seen Doctor Strange raise the dead" man this video didn't agree well lol 😂
Lol I know!!! I would definitely add a little caveat if I were to redo this one
The fact that you pronounced Cyttorak correctly baffles me because most people think it’s pronounced Sit-Orak when Stan Lee himself (who created the character) pronounced it as Sight-Orak.
That must have been pure luck on my part lol, but I'm super happy I lucked out, thanks!!!
Can you make lucario, gengar, garchomp?
Lucario is definitely one I had been planning to do because I've been doing a lot of smash characters, and I'm happy that there's another Gengar fan around, I'll try to do him in the future

@@dndbuilds True. Anyways, superhero is not equal to Dungeons and Dragons. Marvel Superheroes RPG thoe (FASERIP version)...
Is there a way to make him a tabaxi? It's something for my homebrew campaign haha
Absolutely, D&D did add the ability to basically alter the ability scores however you need to so you can use the exact same ability scores, but really I would just move the charisma bonus you get from tabaxi over to intelligence, because dexterity can really help with your armor class.

@@dndbuilds you’re so lovely thank you!
@@darcyemullen of course! Glad I could help
So would he fit War Magic perfect
Wouldn't he be a warlock because he channels the power from otherworldly monsters and deities.
The pronunciation wasn't superbad

Crap. Doctor Strange makes pacts with gods, like the Vishanti, and also learns by reading. He is a Wizlock.
