    BUILD UPDATE(?): It has recently been brought to my attention that as of Patch 5 there is a way of casting spells while raging. If you play a Wild Magic Barbarian, certain surge effects will allow to continue to cast spells.
    Here is a link to a short video by @johnranbandeira1948 giving an example of this working. Try it out before it gets patched!

    My brother & I are doing a Wild Magic play through (I'm a Sorcerer & He's a Barbarian) we're also using the Illithid powers, and man, it's so much fun. He seems to only get helpful magical effects & I only seem to get negative ones, it's become a meme that my Sorcerer is on death's door after combat encounter, I took the magic initiate bard feat just to I could heal myself 😂

    I feel like if you're investing in charisma, id say forget the birthright hat and go with the pyroquickness hat. This would enable a round of quickened fire spell, rage, attack or a round of buff spell, quickened fire spell, quickened buff spell.
    Would burn through sorcery points, but with the barbarian ability to regain spell slots, you can change that to an additional 3 sorcery points.

    Wish more builds would focus on exploring fun interactions and stuff that make things interesting like this rather than just optimized for damage. I keep seeing recycled tempest/smite builds or bard/gloomstalker variants, which are definitely fun to try on first playthrough but combat in this game is so finite that if you don’t impose your own limitations it gets too easy and feels like you’re cheating yourself by using things like deva mace or whatever. Even honor mode doesn’t match the power scaling and I think that’s intentional so you can really feel powerful with any build you Imagine so it’s nice to see something new even if it’s not going to 1 shot everything on first turn. Most fun ive had was a meme wizard duel wielding staves tbh. Excited to try this for next playthrough

      I’m not sure if you have any advice for a build like this but I’m trying a trickery domain cleric with way of the shadow monk to do a sneaky support Shadowheart build. I feel like the gameplay loop I’m going for is having her weave through the shadows, casting debuffs / CC and having some martial prowess to defend herself or finish low HP targets.

    Here is a build / video idea. A holy warrior whose most levels go into way of the open hand monk, ( like the holy fist of lathander or something) also utilizing the ability’s of one of the most underused cleric subclasses Light Domain. And if someone would want extra character add a level into Barbarian for the idea of being unable to control their emotions which leads them to be uncontrollable ( also unarmored defense is extremely good in my opinion). ( also it would be cool if this character wasn’t your typical holy warrior but hides in the light. Not game mechanics wise , but in a story telling way. This characters primary color would probably be white)

  • @mustardseed28
    @mustardseed28 8 месяцев назад +1

    One build i've really been trying to figure out how to make is a martial summoner that also supports their summons. When I say summoner I don't mean hordes or anything, like 2-3 good summons that you fight alongside with. I was trying to make a monk/lore bard since both are fun classes and i would get my support abilities and martial abilities, but after looking into it, lore bards get 0 summoning spells, other than animate dead through their lvl 6 feature.
    While i'd prefer an unarmed fighting style, battle master + Gear that helps summons could fill the martial & support parts, then some summoner class would also work, keep in mind im just trying to get just a handful of strong summons and not a horde. Some tips on what good summons you can get naturally through the game, like Shovel (although i couldn't scribe him, you get the idea.) would also be helpful. One last thing if you do try making this, it doesn't need to lean heavily into martial abilities, just enough to support and keep up with their summons as the game progresses. Sorry for the long comment lol.

      @LukeGreen-k8m 3 месяца назад

      I usually don't comment to often on yt vids, but there are a couple videos on yt about this. When I did it I went 5 monk 7 spore druid. If I remember correctly you can get 4 fungal zombies, create undead, minor elemental summons, a dryad that offers a wood woad. Wearing the helm off Balthazar would make your undead resistant to most damage or gloves from zhentarium as well. With that build you go either dex or strength based. Str use tav brawler.
      You could also probably do a 6/6 split with beastmaster ranger druid focused around melee. Grab sentinel and polerarm master as feats, use bear companion for goading roar which would make enemies attack your bear and you'd be able to do attack off opportunities on enemies that approached your bear on top of your normal attacks along with all of druid abilities as well, and i also forgot you can use shillelagh to buff cacophony for either build using quaterstaffs should still work with those feats. Hopefully that gave you some ideas for a play through.

    • @mustardseed28
      @mustardseed28 2 месяца назад

      @@LukeGreen-k8m thanks! I have seen the druid videos as well, the only issue I have with them is that they summon an entire horde, which slows down the combat and doesn't fit the 2-3 good summons. Druids do however get good summons-so while I could just grab a few of them, a lot of the early level summons do not fit the vibe I want of both me and my couple companions having semi equal strength. And I'll have to wait till way later, near endgameish for that feel.
      The rangers animal companions always lack in health and DMG output-even if you went entirely into the ranger. (At least the last time I played they always had that issue)
      So I don't really think it's possible to have a trusty companion that's as buff as a normal player, that you can fight alongside with in bg3. Not without mods anyway. Which is exactly what I did >:)

The vitality one will give you a lot more hp and probably ac cause if I'm not mistaken, constitution converts to ac for barbarians, right?

If a barbarian learns the shalleighlag, they use charisma for melee attack rolls as its the classes spell ability. Swapping out items for their spell mid combat while hasted is "fun".
