    A work around for the DM throwing fire resistant baddies at ya is taking the Elemental Adept feat. “Spells you cast ignore resistance to damage of the chosen type. In addition, when you roll damage for a spell you cast that deals damage of that type, you can treat any 1 on a damage die as a 2.”

    Archdruid is insane. You have basically permanent Subtle Spell, you can stay in Wild Shape, which you have unlimited charges of, and you can cast while in Wild Shape. Meanwhile, Sorcerers can, regain 4 Sorcery Points on a short rest and Monks regain 4 ki if they roll initiative without having any. That's, underwhelming.

    Our dm is wild with what he gives us (he also throws some crazy stuff AT us so it balances out) and when he let our Druid change his subclass to wildfire, he let the Druids pet owl bear (don’t ask cause I have a pet miniature wyvern) be his wildfire spirit so now we have a flaming siege weapon.

    I’m actually trying the Drakewarden Wildfire Druid multiclassed thing. Flavored it as a ranger that made pacts with two fire spirits. It’s fun and having a teleport to move the tank out of a bad spot is pretty fun. I’ve tried this build with Star Druid which leaned more into my WIS stat using the archer form so we’ll see if this is just as good

  • @vampirelordx1
    @vampirelordx1 Месяц назад +1

    While yes, fire is the most resisted damage type in game. There is a feat for that. Forget the name, but it allows you to treat a single damage type resistance as normal and immunity as resistance. But only for one damage element type. Pick this up for fire and boom, nothing will escape the cleansing flame.

  • @sparrowfox6943
    @sparrowfox6943 28 дней назад

    To be fair if you pick up the Elemental Adept feat, you can ignore resistance of a chosen element and treat any rolled 1 as a 2. And you can take it multiple times to add on to ignored resistances

Wasnt even combat, i gambled my life with a hag or something ti try and get a buff and I got death and even curse so they couldnt rez me jajajaja
