    Thx for the video. You know of the great things I have found playing in EA, is that one can really put together a party of 4 that do not fit the definition of Frontline, Support and Casting. I have had success with LiteCleric/Shadowheart/Gale/Astarian and ValorBard/Astarian/Gale/Shadowheart. also BerserkerBarbar/Lazeal/Shadowheart/Wyll. All depends on what background you take and also skills. Just my thoughts. Thanks again. Peace

  • @DummyFace123
    @DummyFace123 10 месяцев назад +4

    Something worth noting about the prepared spell healers is that you get soooo many slots that you don't really need to consider stuff like Life domain giving Bless at level 1 unless you are only going for 1 level in cleric. Every cleric will get bless and you'll have plenty of room for it. Even clerics with heavy armor proficiency is sort of a wash unless you were going for 12/12 cleric or something since its super-duper convenient to simply start as fighter with constitution throw proficiency AND heavy armor. (fighter, the best caster xD)
    There are some goodies at 11 levels into cleric/druid, but you are generally going to put a perk into Resilent +1 constitution or War Caster anyways, and if you start off as fighter, then you end up saving a perk because you already have constitution saving throw proficiency.

    • @sephi7ac
      @sephi7ac 10 месяцев назад

      A 1st level dip into life domain cleric, then going college of lore bard is a very strong support/healing build. It does put you 1 level behind on bard, but the benefits outweigh the negatives.
      When you hit level 3 bard (lvl 4 total), you'll get the short rest song, giving you and your party 3 short rests per long rest.

  • @TaleSeeker
    @TaleSeeker 11 месяцев назад +5

    My main will be a Swords Bard, utility spells mostly but probably debuff and the odd damage spell. I'll take Shadowheart for support/healing. Karlach, annnnnd I'm unsure about the last spot. I don't really want Gale because I'm not good with Wizards. I might go with Jahira if she's more of a caster druid. I'm trying not to respec characters out of their classes and just multi them, though with her I may have her go Fighter 2 and the rest Land Druid.
    Thinking of Jahira since she was my first romance target in BG2 and my headcannon has my new main being a Blade like his gramps (BG2 char) and Jahira being his grandmom.

    • @screamingopossum7809
      @screamingopossum7809 10 месяцев назад

      Ranged physical DPS would be best, so either Lae'Zel as an archer fighter/ranger or Astarian as an Assassin. Assassins are very good at the start of combat, and being able to see where the enemies line of vision ends makes hiding extremely easy.

    • @scroom1202
      @scroom1202 10 месяцев назад +1

      The other suggestion is good, but I'd go for a controller style support. Lore Bard or Great Old One Warlock come to mind, but you could also go with a disrupter like a Gloomstaller Ranger which will do respectable damage and can quickly pick off weaker enemies to keep turn economy under control. You could also get control and more healing from a Spore Druid which has good synergy with an Oathbreaker.

    While you can eventually get 'hirelings' if you honestly hate using any of the origin/companion characters in your party - or as your own character - the only classes that are not found in either origin characters OR companions are...
    Bard
    Sorcerer
    Monk
    And Bards tend to find 'love' everywhere they go with all kinds of characters, if you know what I mean...so, I think the choice is clear.

    I disagree with your bard assessment. You can't really look at a class in a bubble. Bardic inspiration with gear even in the first act is capable of an average of 200 health and temp hit points per long rest. In the first act NOTHING else comes close to that.
    Consider a bard at the end of act 1. With gear you have:
    * healing word which is the only heal spell that really matters for most classes.
    * 4 bardic inspiration that recharge on short rest (that's 16 per long rest!)
    * an extra short rest for EVERYONE which is not only a bunch of hit points but it refreshes so many abilities and items
    * +3 temp hit points per heal from boots of aid and comfort
    * +2 any time you heal another from the ring of salving
    * 1 healing word spell per day and 1 mass healing word per day from the amulet of restoration
    * 2 rounds of bless from whatever that ring is called from act 1
    * +1D6 self heals when you heal another (which will also gives both the target and self bless and temp hit points) from Wapira's Crown
    * +1D6 hit points to another when you inspire an ally (this will trigger the rings and the boots for 1D6+2 hit points +3 temp hit points + 2 rounds of bless) from the cap of curing, for a bard this is the better of the two
    * +4 temp hit points for self when you use bardic inspiration on another from blazer of benevolence
    * there was also something somewhere ... can't remember where in act 1 that takes each bardic inspiration and gives you two usages per charge. doesn't help healing, but it's very rewarding.
    Why does this really matter?
    There are two short rests, but bard gets a whole 50% more short rests with that third short rest. Which, is also giving that bard a total of 16 bardic inspiration to use and EACH of those bardic inspirations will heal an ally for 1D6+2+3 temp hit points while also healing the bard for 4 temp hit points. That's 200 potential healing and temp hit points from bardic inspiration alone every long rest. Available in the first act. The math is 16 * (3.5 + 2 + 3) to get average healing assuming no wasted temp hit points and no wasted healing. To reiterate, this is without even using spell slots and without using potions. This also doesn't count the extra healing from the extra short rest that everyone in the party gets.
    Bard also gets access to the best healing spell in the game at level 5 or 6 through magic secrets. It's a paladin spell that normally paladins don't get until act 3. It gives you 10 rounds of something like healing word. One single spell cast. I think there's no concentration. It's only a third level spell slot. It gives you those 10 heals. EACH of those heals also gets the benefit of healing gear which means each of those things will heal the target and also the caster, and like healing word it's only a bonus action.
    The only healer in the game that can come close to the college of lore bard is the life cleric. The life cleric is a better healer than the college of lore bard in late game. But, college of lore bard is still better than any other kind of cleric and better than the druid.

    • @zero11010
      @zero11010 9 месяцев назад

      If your main character is a halfling college of lore bard .... every other character you have can just focus on damage.
      With that one character you have .... your lock picker, the face of your party for dialogs, the skills to pass pretty much any check, some of the best healing in the game, some of the best support spells in the game.
      This gives you more options to swap out companions to try different kinds of builds.

  • @corwyncorey3703
    @corwyncorey3703 11 месяцев назад +5

    While I do understand a lot of these choices (in many ways) in calling all of these "support", I think one obviously supports better than all others.
    Since in 5e support is so very rarely a healer, I can honestly say "anyone who can healing word, or throw potions" qualifies. Control does better than healing to mitigate damage by far, and bards have a lot of that, as well as debuffs that make enemies easy kills.
    With Lore Bards getting most of the useful utility spells, all the skills, and yes, being the Face, coupled with bardic inspirations, the extra rest, cutting words, and Counterspell (magic secrets for the win!) they have a LOT of role coverage. Plus they easily multiclass to improve their combat usefulness (if you haven't figured out how to make them really kick butt), mixing very well with Warlock, Sorcerer or one of your other mentions, the Paladin.
    This leads to a party with more flexibility, letting them choose a lot more makeups than otherwise. Which is the epitome of support, hmm?
