Christopher Lee was charismatic enough to cause his second cousin Ian Fleming to start writing books about Lee's time in mi6 during World War II........ Yeah Lee is the inspiration for 007...
When filming return of the king while shooting the scene where worm tongue back stabs saruman Peter jackson was telling lee to let out a scream and lee was like "actually when you stab someone in the back they dont scream they gasp" and peter was like "😬"
So is it just me or is this earlier than usual? Normally I don’t see postings until 12pm EST
@@TheLegendaryLegacy That’s the power of Sir Christopher Lee’s fan base.
Step-Second Cousin actually, as Lee's mother divorced, and then got Married to Fleming's Uncle; Also 007 wasn't entirely based off of Lee; Fleming had already been writing the character for a couple years (not yet published however), and simply used all of Lee's stories of being in MI6 as a way to make all of James's missions seem more realistic, and to have a greater sense of what actually went on during that time period.
@@skelitonking117 still makes it very cool though, don’t you think?
I feel like a single level of Bard for Dooku would be appropriate, since he uses Vicious Mockery all. The. Time
Going over the highlights of Christopher Lee's life would take two hours.
That's just what happens when you meet Tolkien, take part in the Winter War, have friends with royalty which gets you married at one point to the dismay of your future father in law, have one of Muhammad Ali's fights dedicated to you, star in every genre of movie.
And happen to be one of Charlemagne's descendants.
Christopher Lee build when?
5e couldn't handle a Christopher Lee build
@@Mare_Man People think anime characters need to be level 40. Lee would need to be level 50.
And is an inspiration for James Bond lol
You know...
We got the Anderson Cooper build. Maybe this should be the next running joke request
To be fair, be a Charlemagne's descendant is quite commun thing.
Fun fact, while Ventress has a lot of Form II added into her fighting style from Dooku's teachings, her primary style is Jar'kai, which is what dual wielding falls under. Her Jar'kai is also completely self taught since she started using it after her first master was killed and she took his lightsaber.
Jar'kai is not a saber form (the same could be said for Tripzet and Trákata), but it compliments Makashi very well. It also works very well with Soresu and Niman.
@@timetrnr7380 I have also read Jar’Kai works particularly well with Ataru as well, its flowing and connected nature and aggressive style working well with dual wielding
I'm rather surprised that Dooku wasn't a Hexblade, sword bard, battle Master combo. Showing him to duel and basically raise his AC during combat by literally deflecting blows with his sword.
I assumed Ventless was going to be a rouge, monk. But this one works really well
I expected a bard just for Dooku to have vicious mockery.
I went with Swords bard 14/Goolock 6
These two seem really fun, especially Dooku. I will never not be impressed with how different your Force user builds are. Also thank you so much for all the double builds, pretty sure I speak for all of us when I say we really appreciate it and hope you're not too overwhelmed.
I really like the little quips about the different forms. That’s a nice touch.
"You may not think Asajj can sing, but Song of Rest can be Evanescence."
I laughed way too hard at that. That was absolute gold.
Technically I don’t think Ventress was to be trained as a full sith as much as a sith assassin. Much like the inquisitors post Order 66 they wield red blades and have some basics of sith skill, but not the fully training to become a sith lord
You are correct.
If I recall correctly Count Dooku was training her at the level where she would be his Apprentice after he killed his master, but Palapatin caught on. So he had (attempt) to kill her to cover his tracks.
Do you think Ventress is more powerful than the Grand Inquisitor or Maul? (Episode 1 Maul, who was very young)
@@passarovoador6662 well maul was rather talented in lightsaber combat, but I think Ventress had more skill with the force. So I’d have to say she’s stronger than Maul, but not the Grand Inquisitor
@@passarovoador6662
Ep 1 maul wasn't there yet, he was a deulist of good skill, and very talented, but not yet strong in the force. His slice in two actually really was his boost in power and that wrath became both his source of power and downfall.
Hey Tulok, I don't know if the daily double character uploads are going to be a thing for all of December but no matter what make sure you don't overwork or burn yourself out. That is way more important than content.
Hes already finished the december videos. He mentioned it on twitter
Thankfully he did some of these in advance :D
That's good to hear. What I said still stands though.
Fitting to have a double build for Sith, what with the rule of two.
Asajj Ventress is no sith, my friend
@@gabrielmarques5257 neither is Dooku, almost?
@@kevinphiggins He's a Sith. It's why he's Darth Tyrannus and Ventress doesn't have a Darth title.
@@gabrielmarques5257 Only because of the aforementioned rule. As an apprentice to Dooku, she would have become an official Sith apprentice in the event of Sidious’s death. Therefor, she may as well be, if not for a matter of semantics, which draws into question the validity of said rule in the first place.
Meh neither of them were Sith, the Darth Title means absolutely nothing in the modern era of Starwars; He was a Dark Jedi, no if's ands or buts, he never followed their religion, in fact, i wager he never stopped following the Jedi code, just simply believed that the order itself had. Also I don't count either Plagius nor Sidious as Sith either, because they weren't. Plagius may have been , but by the point he found sheev on Naboo he was more of just a dark side user in general, and Sheeve never cared for the Sith, nor the rule of two (neither did Plagius) they just usurped the titles because Plagius was once the apprentice of a Sith, and because Sheeve was and edgy weirdo obsessed with magic and controlling the future. The new Sequal trillogy tried really hard at the end to make Him something he never wanted to be tbh and it's silly. In the words of Maul, they were NOTHING but Pretenders
Let's not forget he also actively fought the Nazis. Christopher Lee was a professional badass.
Twice the pride, double the fall.
Twice the pride, double the build!
Dude I fucking love the piercer feat, I've got it on my Horizon Walker ranger. Doesn't work in tandem with the Planar Warrior ability, but with multiple attacks per turn you still have at least one attack thAt deals piercing damage
Well yeah we got Christmas early with early video, AND it’s Star Wars builds
On the fourth day of Christmas
My good Sr. Tulok brought me:
Five Angry space wizards
Four Hunted devils
Three Prideful Greek heroes
Two Crime fighting gals
And a lemur up in a pear tree!
Of course Yoda agreed to settle a Force fight with swords, Dooku used Panache! Jedi aren't the only ones with mind tricks!
I laughed an unreasonable amount at the count intro, I'm so sleep deprived
Asajj Ventess is now a Batman Villain! Finally!
It's the bard levels, isn't it?
I can tell your having fun with the Weird Al lyrics.
Christopher Lee was a serious badass; he would probably be worth its own building character episode himself. Guy was a pilot, intelligence officer (he was much of the inspiration for James Bond, as Ian Fleming was his step cousin), and helped hunt war criminals after the war. He almost married into the Swedish royal family, witnessed Frances last guillotine execution, and was the only LOTR cast who actually met Tolkien.
Also had a metal band
Your Dooku build can hold 2 Jedi per Hold Person, cause it’s 3rd lv spell, it hold 2 person per cast. Then you regain spellslots per short rest, so you can kill at least 4 Jedi per rest. Of course if they’re going a master and an apprentice, no more, no less 😛.
One thing I like about the new Republic stuff from sw legends is that the sword styles are completely revised giving us the best named lightsabre style "Strong style"
I use a variation of Form VII, Vapaad. Only I am cool enough to use it
The Count with Dooku's voice has me rolling.
Also, a message from the future, 2022 isn't bad in the way we thought it was gonna be.
A tulok upload at 1am, a surprise to be sure but a welcome one 👍
Here's a crazy idea from the DC universe.
Alfred, the man who stands behind the Caped Crusader. Despite being the Wayne's family butler for years, in many incarnations, he's usually a former member of the British military, sometimes special forces.
How to build this butler -
First up, Dexterity. He's almost as good at sneaking as Batman himself. Wisdom - guy tends to be Batman's doctor. Charisma, as he must be good with lying to others. Intelligence, as he needs to keep up with the Dark Knight in knowing what he has. Constitution is a bit low, and we dump Strength - not really needed for the build.
Background - If Batman's a Noble, Alfred has to be a Courtier, or can use the features to help keep Wayne Manor running. Get Insight and Persuasion.
Alfred is a Human. Boost Dexterity and Charisma. Skill of choice - Medicine - Bruce needs to be patched up a lot. He also has many Skills - so let's grab Skilled to pick up Stealth, Slight of Hand, and Acrobatics - always useful for Butlers to sneak up on unsuspecting intruders, make sure to get out of the way of gadgets being tested, and not spill a cup of coffee.
Starting class - Rogue. Grab Perception, Investigation, Deception, and Intimidation. Sneak attack also comes in handy, like when knocking out would-be intruders. Expertise on Medicine and Deception - Alfred covers for Bruce a lot, and always patches him up.
Next, go Bard. Skill to get - History - you know the Wayne family story. Spell needed - Cure Wounds, need it a lot. Also, Vicious Mockery for dealing with young teenagers.
Now, let's jump over to Fighter. Archery is the fighting style we want - Alfred will use guns (reskinned crossbows), unlike Batman. Alfred will also get Second Wind - he needs to catch his breath every so often. We're going down the Cavalier path and grabbing Animal Handling. Stop anyone trying to harm Master Bruce when he "can't" defend himself. Continue to Fighter 6, Boosting Dexterity until it's Maxed.
Back to Rogue. Let's go Scout - many of the magic-less subclasses would also work - but Scouts get Nature and Survival, with Expertise. Go to Level 6, boosting Charisma along the way, and get Expertise for Slight of Hand and Persuasion.
Now, back again to Bard. Go Collage of Lore, grab Arcana, Performance, and Religion. Go until Level 4 Bard, boost Charisma. Most spells would be to help out around the place.
Now, let's go to Ranger, and snag Athletics. At Level 2 Ranger, get Dueling for those times he must hit with a melee weapon. At Level 3, go Hunter for Colossus Slayer. Finally, to cap it off, grab Tavern Brawler - those oversized plates are handy for smacking folks in the face.
Pros - Alfred's got Skills, and Expertise on a bunch of them. 3d6 for Sneak Attack, a d8 for Colossus Slayer, attacks twice. Possibly have ways to get Advantage, and get out of the way.
Weaknesses - he's a little scattered between the classes. Not a whole lot of magical damage. Kind of low on HP, with 123 total.
Still, if nothing else, Alfred can buy Batman the time he needs to put his utility belt on, leave out the back way and then make a Dramatic Entrance.
Interesting
@@benjamintash6032 Alternatively, we could use Courtier (2), Skilled (3), free Variant Human skill (1), 4 from rogue, 2 from Scout by level 3, grab 1 from Bard, 3 from Lore Bard by level 6, and then 2 from Knowledge Domain Cleric, and get all 18 by level 7, with expertise or similar on a bunch of them.
Idk why this is here when it is, but I am thankful for it nonetheless.
Did not expect this to be uploaded so quickly! Another long anticipated build from me. Now I can have the Count duke it out with the Chosen One, at long last...
The use of The Count in the Dooku intro lined up... eerily well.
Duku would make a monster of a campaign boss, really well done with his character, you know the whole video is just really well thought out.
Nice to see someone who has as much love for Christopher Lee as I do.
It's time for form tt-two
Yu-gi: Did someone say duel?
Count Dooku: "We are doing it with lightsabers"
Yusei: "On motorcycles?" Asajj Ventress: "no"
Yusei & Yu-gi* walk away disappointed
I built a Dooku inspired Duelist awhile back and it pleases me our builds are quite similar
Even if this upload was scheduled twelve hours earlier than intended (my theory for the 1am upload), it’s still super appreciated that I got to watch it while I was unable to sleep. So thank you Tulok, I appreciate your hard work always.
The speed you deliver lines is amazing
Really loving these two for one videos. I know it’s a lot of of extra work, but every once in a while it’s very cool.
Gotta say this one might be my favorite starwars build these really feel powerful
I feel like this was a bit early...but I'm not complaining.
I just wanna say, thanks for grinding all these videos out. We love the energy and appreciate the consistency 😁. Also recently realized it was BarbRarian and not barbarian
I've been looking forward to this
Wow last time I was this early was for the Sora episode XD
"I've been looking forward to this."
Speaking to the end of Dooku's pros/cons section, if Dooku actually killed two Jedi a day for the full duration of the Clone Wars (which was around three years if I recall correctly) then that's over 2,100 Jedi. A full fifth of the Jedi Order and then some (again, if I recall correctly, I thought the Jedi themselves were numbered around 10,000). Not too shabby, not at all.
Some things stand the test of time. Tulok puns, are certainly one of them.
Take a shot of water every time Tulok says two stay hydrated
Hexblade+ swashbuckler is one of my favorite builds.
Dual-Wielder Monks are seriously underrated. Extra +1 to an already great AC, and a potential to add weapon bonuses on your bonus action attacks.
Dooku is like the finesse version of d4's Critlander.
You didn't have to upload while my insomniac ass was scrolling through, but you did and I thank you for it 😁
Dooku as a Swashbuckler Hexblade, and Ventress as a College of Swords/Kensei Monk? Barbarian could also work for Ventress but that's too obvious for Tulok. 🙃
Wym just bard lol
I extend to you an algorithm boosting thank you, my dude.
Fabulous video!!! Small note about Rakish Audacity (6:18). The SA ability allows for others to be within 5 feet of your target, but only your target can be within 5 feet of you.
Loving these double character highlights. Keep up the amazing work, Tulok!
I very much so apreciate your true strike messages Tulok
I have been waiting for this for a very long time
The Best thing about Baldur's Gate coming out, returning to these builds and making your favorite characters as well as you can with 12 levels.
Love these builds. Thanks for the double feature Tulok!
OMG ALREADY ANOTHER DOUBLE EPISODE?!? AND A STAR EARS ONE?!? SANTA DOES EXIST AFTERALL
I can't swing a patron pledge yet, but so help me I will like and comment and bookmark and favorite every single one of these videos because I APPRECIATE YOU SO MUCH
Love all the vids man
Sometimes I forget how brutal TCW was.
Daily double december is the best december
"But Dooku is not a Sith Master, he can't have an apprentice!"
SO WAS PALPATINE
And talking about that, Vader is just a regular Sith Lord, he is not a sith master
Honestly, the rule of 2 has always been the rule of 3. Sidius got Maul before killing his master, Dooku had Ventress (and Savage...), even Vader had Starkiller in Force Unleashed.
Rule of two and a half... in Maul's case
Thought you would give ventress vicious mockery
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one
Midnight surprise? I’ll take it
what an early and unexpected surprise!
One of my favorite final puns of the episode 😁
OH HELL YEAH
2 things, first I love that you can still find ways to make unique Jedi builds that all do the different thing in so many cool ways. 2nd how can you make so many builds, I still struggle to make one! I'm still stick on my Colossus build😥
Great vid 👍
16 likes, 0 views, and 3 invisible comments. Sure, why not?
But seriously, sith power lets go!!!!
!!
Four builds in one day???
Thanks.
holy crap *it's 1 am!* the heck?!
oh im not complaining, but THE HECK?! XD
🙊 what!? Yuss!?
Except… maybe (bc twitter) Tulok doesn’t know? I’d know… if I’d taken True Strike and typed with calligraphy. 😞
Yooo it is 1am lol
Didn’t the last video post less than 24 hours ago? I thought the duos would be every other day
It’s every day
Hmm so basically, it's like last year, each day a new build, but on double steroids.
I love you Tulok
Hiya Tulok, would it be possible for you to throw a label up that shows us the total level of the character at each stage?
Maybe put the cumulative level of the character in a corner so its not a surprise when we reach the capstone? Keep up the good work!
I feel like this was auto upload mistake of am and pm.
Knew the best duelist was going to have levels in Swashbuckler
time for builds for the darkside
That true strike bit tho
How did this get up early?!?
Now I need a Star Wars parody starring the Animaniacs as bickering Sith apprentices.
Commenting to help the algorithm
Thank you for the video.
Oh my god!, Oh wait... I thought it was Vin diesel :(
With all the comments you made about holding two people at once, I was fully expecting Ventress to have a few sorcerer levels for the Twinned Spell Metamagic... or at least the Metamagic Adept feat.
Hmmm. Couldn't you have gone sorcerer and gotten the metamagic option to turn shocking grasp into a 30 foot range and then went bladesinger wizard and pick up green flame blade? Would have done everything that the warlock levels did for Dooku.
Not exactly a negative, but I foresee Custom Lineage keeping the channel in a chokehold. XD
Posted early?
Thanks for all the videos. You are in fact a beast. Also, Ventress is best Star Wars girl.
All of the enemies from the opponent universes from the latest
Dbz tournament. Especially Hit the time stop guy, would be cool and definitely not human variants. Genyu Force too but that's 5 fighters unless you're creative
This is awesome! can you do a clone build? maybe rex or cody?
I'd love to see you build Chewbacca next
When this video was released he already made Chewbacca a long time ago.
i think Dooku is just an Eldritch Knight
