    One small change I'd make is that I would start as a paladin to gain heavy armor proficiency making it so the AC is less of a issue

    • @dndbuilds
      @dndbuilds  Год назад +20

      Absolutely, if I was going more based off of optimization and less trying to follow a theme for a character, That's definitely the route I would go

      ​@dndbuilds it would also let you start with medium instead of waiting until 13th

    • @ThespianDevil
      @ThespianDevil Год назад

      If you swap a feat for medium armor master, and wear half-plate, and have atleast a 16 in dex, you can have 18 base AC.

      That's what I did I went 5 lvs into oath oathbreaker and the rest warlock.

    A good build, but I would've started with Paladin. That way you're not stuck on Medium armor and have to take that negative to your AC. Plus the idea of a Ghost Rider in full plate is awesome, I mean if Spawn could pull it off, Ghost Rider could. Also, instead of an ability score improvement to bump Con to 17, I would've taken Resilient to bump it to 16, since having it at 17 doesn't really have any benefits it wouldn't have at 16, and adding proficiency to con saves as well as Aura of Protection and Eldritch Mind? You would have had to piss off the dice gods HELLA bad to lose concentration on your spells.
    Any chance of a Captain Titus (Warhammer 40k Space Marine) build at some point?

    • @dndbuilds
      @dndbuilds  Год назад +11

      Yeah I actually missed that when I was recording as far as taking resilient to go to 16, but I did include it on the character sheet on my patreon just because I realized it after the recording was already done. So definitely a good call out.
      Also you are totally right it would be next to impossible to fail on a concentration check, and if I was going to optimize and follow the theme of the character a tiny bit less I would totally go paladin first as well

    • @rene9adekni9ht97
      @rene9adekni9ht97 Год назад +4

      I personally would do that, AND take Investiture of Flame for the 6th level Mystic Arcanum instead of Eyebite. That way combined with the form of dread, you become a flaming skeleton, and take the find steed spell so that your mount also becomes shrouded in flames.

  • @chrimedina
    @chrimedina Год назад +9

    Great build.
    Reborn race would be a nice pick since you can choose it's appearancen freely, plus a hard to kill dude and nice stats.
    ULTIMATZEKROM had a great point, a Vengance Paladin returned from dead and became a living toll of the dead

  • @jbw065
    @jbw065 Год назад +3

    I genuinely built 95% of this build two days ago with only a couple of changes for a one-shot. I started one level of Paladin (he doesn’t start life making a deal but makes a deal as an adolescent- I really wanted heavy armour) and then 12 warlock levels. I mostly took the same invocations though I did take Tomb of Levistus (reflavouring the ice prison as a flame like pose as I get shot up by arrows) because sometimes Ghost Rider just stands there taking the hits before walking off. I also took Mental Prison instead of Eyebite for my penitents stare as the similarities were too much for me not to.

  • @ThespianDevil
    @ThespianDevil Год назад +2

    If your DM allowed you to, your mount could be a Devil’s ride, a Motorcycle from Baldur’s gate.

  • @CybercietyYT

    By far my favorite build I've seen of Ghost Rider thus far, honestly.
    But for the last ASI, why not get the feat, "Fighting Initiate" so you could take Dueling and do some additional damage with your whip?

    • @dndbuilds
      @dndbuilds  Год назад +5

      I actually wound up changing that last ASI on Patreon to the Resilient Feat, just to get CON Proficiency and the same amount of CON simultaneously

    @Zendrist-8128 Год назад +2

    This is a nice build! Only thing I'd do a little differently would be to take the multi-class dive a bit earlier that you did to get those buffs working early game.

    • @dndbuilds
      @dndbuilds  Год назад +2

      If I was going to optimize, I'd actually take Paladin first, then Warlock at 2nd level then back over to paladin, because you'll get more armor and more health to choose from. But I tried to stick with the theme as much as possible even if it's not quite as optimized.

  • @thewolverine7619

    The tiefling feat "flames of phlegothos" can help with the ghost rider look and help with fire damage output

    • @miguelangelus959
      @miguelangelus959 Год назад

      It could be pretty nice if the build was centered around Green-flame Blade instead of normal attacks

  • @bringitonbatman
    @bringitonbatman Год назад

    I'm building this but with a Zariel Tiefling, moderately armoured and flames of phlegethos feats.
    The fact that you can fire off searing and eldrtiched smite changing the damage to necrotic (which I'd consider Hellfire) is just too good to miss out on plus you'd get that extra damage from the upgraded form of dread.

    I know that Oath of Vengeance has vengeance in the name but Oath of Conquest has special powers that fit so much better with fear powers and some really cool oath spells. Armour of Agathys can be reflavoured and helps with defence, spiritual weapon can be reflavoured as chains, etc. Still, nice video.

    • @bassetthound1394
      @bassetthound1394 Год назад

      Koragg is interesting. I don't know if he would be an oathbreaker, because he essentially broke an oath, or oath of the crown because he serves his evil master.

  • @martymartin5302

    One thing I think could be kinda nice for more roleplay is maybe take a single level of barbarian. I know this sounds weird, but here me out. Johnny has constantly been battling the spirit of the ghost rider, Zarathos, in his mind to avoid him getting absolute control. One could say the rage is Zarathos taking over, as it has been shown Zarathos is pretty tough. It sounds weird, but I think it could be very fun to have. Now, you can’t cast spells during a rage, which sucks, but I feel like the rage could fit very well for Zarathos. Also, you can get heavy and medium armor from paladin, but barbarians do also have unarmored defense, and since the ghost rider wears what seems to be a leather biker jacket, this could work well for roleplay as well. Overall, the build is amazing and this just adds another aspect of the rider, but I think this could have some power behind it.

  • @ChristnThms

    I get the Undead patron offering a transformation feature. But since it focuses on necrotic everything, and Ghostrider is definitely about fire, it doesn't seem to offer as much as... Fiend patron.
    I thought that was obvious.
    The continually renewable THP can end up offering a lot of durability if you play it smart.
    Fire Genasi or Tiefling would give you resistance to fire damage, which would seem significant. The Fiend spell list is definitely thematic. The 14th level feature is the big payout though. Hurl Through Hell is perfect. It requires a hit with an attack, but not a weapon. EB qualifies. Then removed from the field for a turn and 10d10 (55 avg) damage with no save.
    For perspective, a Paladin smiting twice with 5th level slots delivers 12d8 with an average of 54.

    For the final feat, I'd have gone with Resilient and given myself proficiency in Constitution saving throws. Having an odd number in Con doesn't feel great. Or, I would have started with Paladin for heavy armor proficiency, given myself +1 Str and Con instead of +2 Str, and then gone with Heavy Armor Master for the last +1 Str.
    Also, fun fact, if you build the Robbie Reyes version of Ghost Rider, he can teleport short distances, so Fey Touched wouldn't be farfetched. That'd give you +1 Cha.

    Made a character that at its basic level is a combination of Ghost Rider ( Marvel ), Gunslingers ( Dark Tower ), and Percy from Vox Machina. The Human is named Jade ( male ), the demon or devil is named Coldflame. They are great with fire arms and cold/fire damage. Their Fire abilities have a bone chilling freeze effect as well. His main weapons are 2 sawed off shotguns. This guy I’m playing in our Dark Fantasy game.

      Using DnD 5e rules, you can do so with just pen and paper (the old fashioned way). You can also use dndbeyond, but you would have to buy individual pieces to complete the build unless you want the most basic stuff. But there are plenty of other places and resources, the first DnD game I ever played was through a site called Roll20

    • @dndbuilds

      I thought more of the Necrotic as soul damage (even though I understand it's not necessarily the case). So most fire damage I relied on was Green Flame Blade, Hellish Rebuke, and more fire based Smites
