I’m running a satyr bard in my current campaign and LOVE IT! He is pretty OP, but I spec’d more into control (buffing and debuffing). I then joined the college of eloquence so I can be more persuasive. I have a few attack spells that are OP even at level 6, but I haven’t used them yet. Instead I buff and debuff while passing out bardic inspiration like candy. Tons of fun to play, and I get to cause mischief and talk my way out of it! There’s more to the game than combat. Having a high AC doesn’t protect you from being persuaded to hand me your weapons and armor.
I'm playing a Satyr oath of ancients paladin. He's chaotic but trying so so hard to live by his oaths. He head butted a teenager who was hunting in our last session and then healed him to try to change his mind about killing animals.
Doing a desert themed one shot this weekend where the Foe is a mage. Built my level 8 Satyr Bard (Maytur ‘the Satyr’ Miftari) to be a mage killer 😉 was fun picking out which spells and tactics would be most useful for this! Thanks for the video, I need to go back and tweak a couple things in the backstory to line up after watching this 👍
I'm playing a Satyr character in a campaign right now, actually. I made a Warlock with a Fiend patron, and I actually had no idea that Satyrs would be OP. I just made a Satyr because I felt some inspiration for the character, and the race fit for story reasons for me. (And so far it's been really fun.)
1:22 Dongritts? That’s how the subtitles spell it. Looking it up yields no results, but that describes my character very well, and I’d like to learn more about the lore there. Where can I find more info on those storytellers?
Now that Tasha’s Cauldron has hit the shelves, what do you think of a satyr wild magic barbarian? I think it’s just a great combo. I’m looking forward to trying this out and having fun.
I'm building a Bard-Rogue multi-class character. Swashbuckler College of Swords, and he's a Satyr by race. With the boosts to stats his Charisma is 18, and strength is 10. He's currently at a Level 4, two levels in each though my concept for continuing the build with be 3 levels of Rogue, the rest in Bard. I'll finish up the build to day and have him ready for play next week.
An Oath of the Ancients Paladin would fit both thematically with a satyr and with the alignment. 5e Paladins are not as bound to alignments as they were in previous editions, and Ancients are clear in both their description, and their tenets, that Law and order is not something they care about. Using the dex bonus, stick with Medium armour, rapier and shield. Grab a long bow for ranged damage. Duelist fighting style is good to boost your damage output, or Blessed warrior for cantrips could work as well with your high charisma. The Aura of Warding stacks with the Satyrs magic resistance, as one provides advantage to saves but no damage reduction, while the other provides damage reduction, but no advantage on saves. Having both really makes you almost anti-magic. Medium armour mastery is a decent feat so long as you obtained stealth prof at some point. Defensive dualist will also help with defense. My only problem putting together this build is the Channel Divinity "Turn the Faithless", which turns fey. Which the satyr is. How does that work? Could the Satyr accidently turn himself? I assume if there was an Ancient Paladin and a Satyr in the same party the Paladin would turn the Satyr, that's the downside of being fey instead of humanoid.
I believe that a Fey Paladin casting Turn the Faithless wouldn't affect them any more than spells like Thunderwave or Burning Hands would damage their caster (they don't). If a spell or magical effect creates an AoE that originates from the caster's position, the caster is not considered to be inside that AoE unless explicitly stated otherwise.
I'm trying to create a satyr as a shepherd as his background as story and would turn into a Satyr Grave Domaim Cleric.. making him a tank support for our party.. still wondering how could I make the best in him
Bananas. Forever DMs tend to play completely unhinged characters when they do get to play, and this is top three on my list. Is it optimized? Not really. Is it chaotic? Perfection! Are you going to play one? Let us know!
fun video one thing though, you said that satyrs are good for dex based clerics because of there stat bonuses Clerics use wisdom to cast spells not charisma
@@SkullSplitter now i understand what you meant. thanks for replying so fast and the explanation Quick question: did mi initial comment come over as rude? im autistic and always trying to emprove my social skills
I said no to a player on this one because of the Fey and Magic Resistance. That's just too much. I don't know what they were thinking when the created the race for players. It is not even close to balanced.
I just made a Satyr Warlock, tried to choose a race at random and landed on Satyr. The more I looked into them the more I fell in love.
and how is your character goin?

I'm going to make an angry Satyr druid obsessed with nature preservation with a few levels in wild magic barbarian ;)

I'm currently in the process of creating a Satyr Druid. I'm very excited
ME TOO

Just got into the game. Thinking of doing a satyr monk for my first character.

Dawngreets! Apologies for the subtitles being off...
@@SkullSplitter All good! Thank you so much!
Awesome introduction Patrick. Just starting my first Satyr build for a new campaign.
About to start a campaign with a Satyr Scout. Should work out well!
Now that Tasha’s Cauldron has hit the shelves, what do you think of a satyr wild magic barbarian?
I think it’s just a great combo. I’m looking forward to trying this out and having fun.
I'm doing a satyr barbarian, too! It sounds like an amazing combo as well.
Wild magic barbarian*
Mine is a ton of fun. I also gave him a few levels in oath of the ancients paladin.
Great video!! Really helped me think about my next character!
Great video bud, I hope your channel continues to grow

About to start with a Satyr Bard with the College of Glamour!

I just wanted to pop in here and say that combo is dirty! Well done!

First time playing a satyr. Excited but nervous since theyvarent a basic race in the players handbook
I'm trying to create a satyr as a shepherd as his background as story and would turn into a Satyr Grave Domaim Cleric.. making him a tank support for our party.. still wondering how could I make the best in him
I'm running a level 9 Satyr (8 Gloomstalker Ranger and 1 Twilight Cleric) and when I hit level 10 I'm going to pick up Rouge 1.
Interesting. Why the 1 level dip into Rogue?
Awesome!
Oath of Glory paladins seem reasonable for saytrs.
I want everyone meaning about this, a small, albino satyr Druid.
Thats very cute. I have actually a kinda same Idea with a big light satyr scaredy druid who is making herself smaller than she is😂
but what about path of wild magic satyr barbarian

fun video
one thing though, you said that satyrs are good for dex based clerics because of there stat bonuses
Clerics use wisdom to cast spells not charisma
Totally get it; but clerics that are dex based, with the other Satyr bonuses are 😍
@@SkullSplitter now i understand what you meant.
thanks for replying so fast and the explanation
Quick question: did mi initial comment come over as rude? im autistic and always trying to emprove my social skills
No worries, we weren't really clear on a pretty unusual recommendation. We appreciate the question.
@@reinierkwint9419 You did great! Your comment did not come off as rude at all in my opinion.
Something doesn't add up why is there only 15 comments... anyway great vid
