Maliketh is a canine, not a feline. Also, I would say his Sword Beams could be used with Spell Sniper on Green Flame Blade. The original version has a range of 5' explicitly, which Spell Sniper doubles to 10'. Sword Beams. Bonus, Spell Sniper lets you pick a Cantrip for free and GFB is an option!
Green Flame Blade actually has a range of Self, so Spell Sniper doesn't work with GFB. Doubling a range of Self is still Self, so GFB doesn't get any extra range. In addition, the bonus damage to a second creature doesn't really fit with Maliketh's sword beams, which also have a longer range than a doubled GFB would have
@@HiatoPDSS It is said that the shadows of the empyrean were wolfs, at least in the raging wolf armor set description, and there are another depictions of maliketh and marika as a child sorrounded by wolfs, but you know how open to interpretation this games are, so yeah whatever makes you rest the more is fitting
my Maliketh (made as a dmpc boss for my dm buddy.) was protector aasimar with vengeance paladin, battle master, and lycan order bloodhunter. It was powerful, but you got Mally more accurately
Not gonna’ pretend to be all-knowing and I’ll just admit when I got the alert notification I first thought of Malekith from Thor comics. “A dark elf sorcerer kind with Tulok going full Feywild using contracts, cold iron, Casket of Ancient Winters…let’s goooo!” This makes a lot more sense though and is also quite cool. Maybe not as cold as an Ancient Winter but then again death may be colder.
The one good boy that would not let even dead itself escape it's gaze (One can emulate it's trill to fulfill such task to achieve it's goals irl... Maybe also a Tangle the lemur build? Sir Tulok please). Hopefully it's owner will treat him with care... Maliketh was entrusted with the rune of death for a world widouth it to please it's mistress, until a child of her stole part of it and make an absolute caos! due that shame he bound it to itself to become a killer guardian and a terrific boss to test not only your cause, but your will to succeed, and no amount of death treats will disuade him from it's devoted goal.
So this is great and all but... Maliketh is a dog. He's Marika's shadow. All Shadows are dogs. Blaidd is also a Shadow, the Shadow of Ranni and he is a dog. They're all woofs, not meows. But I mean, cool build. Just-- yeah. Not a cat. Sorry if that's-- I don't want to be a killjoy. UNLESS OF COURSE I MISSED A WHOLE JOKE AND THIS IS ALL PART OF SOME ELABORATE GAG OR INSIDE JOKE IN WHICH CASE, IGNORE ME
Probably too minor of a thing to get it's own video unfortunately. If your GM let's you use 3PP material, Roll for Combat released a Dragon race last year that can grow to larger sizes (probably with feats? I only saw the Pathfinder 2e version, but I know they also made it for DnD)

I think hexblade fits more with malekith hexblade curse could be your destined death stand in but it is kind of over done and I live any build that uses undead warlock
Please don't, I actually want to get Moghwyn and complaining because a more popular character came first is a surefire way to make Tulok not want to do it.
@@AwesomeWookiee You know, that's fair. It's not meant to be complaining or harassing, simply wordplay. If it's bothering Tulok then I'm good to drop the bit
the soul community is really something eh? turtles and others animals: "it's a dog, clearly." something clearly being a wolf/dog: "it's a cat, obviously."
Hmmmm, it's a minor thing, but maybe swap Intelligence for Dexterity? Neither of them will really be needed, so it doesn't change much in terms of optimization, but those jumps must require some serious acrobatics to pull off...
I would love to try this build but my DM doesn't like it when we multi class unless we come up with a very good reason and it makes sense. Like I would never be able to get away with a paladin/warlock combo at is table no matter the justification.
That has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. Granted I'm a very rules loose dm (for near on 11 years now), but uh multiclassing is a core part of the game. If your DM says something like "it's too strong" or "it doesn't make sense" then I'm sorry my friend but they are a poor dm. Some advice for your DM. As a DM, *never* limit your players. Of course I'm not saying let them play a dragon or anything like that, but multiclass, maybe let them play a tame homebrew race if they want to, things like that. As a DM, your goal is for everyone to have fun. That's it. It's not to kill the party, or tell an epic tale. It's a game. Have fun.
Maliketh's a lion? He always seemed more like a wolf to me. Edit: Just rewatched his cutscene. I guess I can see it, I just thought to muzzle shape looked more wolfy and the hair was just helm decoration.
@@tabletopnephilim4633 Quite... If you've got a benevolent DM, they may allow you to reflavour or mildly homebrew a Leonine a little bit to better serve as a canine PC though.
That would mean missing Improved Divine Smite, which is roughly the same... I would say it's worth it for spells, but, uhhh... Are there any 6th level Warlock spells that are good for Maliketh?
Because Phil is doing alot of builds in Elden ring on this channel, we thought it would be a good pairing to also have a bunch of elden ring characters in D&D builds upload here along with them
@@GrahamChapman I had a player be a wolf boi and use the Leonine stats and had him just say that he’s a wolf boi. Nothing is stopping us from changing the Aesthetics of classes and races. Imagine rather than spirits cummuning with spirit Walker Barbarian it’s a latent psychic power emerging through Rage
@@samdurfee6093 Yeah, that's the sorta reflavour I'm talking about. Or a Berserker Barbarian evoking Cú Chulainn's dreaded Ríastrad when Raging... The rules are tools, they're not meant to impede our imaginations or get in the way of the stories we want to tell.

I love recognizing the character run in the background footage. I'm never around for the live playthrough but I'm really enjoying the uploads
For the blackblade, take a sword of wounding
Ok I'm gonna be that guy, pretty sure its a wolf, not a cat
still annoys me the canine Player Races never got out of UA. yet feline got 2 and birds got like 4

There's also the issue of no dog race.
@@YourCrazyDolphin true, unless you REALLY reskinned Shifters. But they're not amazing.
Maliketh really captured in this build.
This guy is an absolute beast. Also, I hate him and he can rot. Maybe he'll move somewhere appropriate for that.
I know this will get buried but is there a way to play the Lichdragon?
I was thinking Dragon born Undead Warlock with storm sorcerer levels.

Maaaaaan do I love Malikeths design! He's so fucking awesome and I love his sword.....I just hate how his armor looks on me 😭😭😭
the soul community is really something eh?
turtles and others animals: "it's a dog, clearly."
something clearly being a wolf/dog: "it's a cat, obviously."
Yeah it's kinda annoying honestly
I fuckin hate it
@@ancientreddragon5617 the joke would probably be stale for me after a while.
but for now I kinda like it.
so good!
Are we just cat-washing dog-people?
I guess so I’m surprised to see how many people seem to think he’s a Cat.
In this case it's probably more-so pragmatism brought about by the fact that there are no canine PC races in D&D.
Hmmmm, it's a minor thing, but maybe swap Intelligence for Dexterity? Neither of them will really be needed, so it doesn't change much in terms of optimization, but those jumps must require some serious acrobatics to pull off...
Maliketh's set may cover every part of the player's body but on him it might as well be bikini armor.
And this is a good thing

I really hope he does Isaac Clark someday 🙏
I feel like he'd just be an Artillerist Artificer with a few armor infusions and his eldritch cannon would be the plasma cutter
Cat??? Huh??
He is a Wolf Boi, but people seem to thinks he’s a cat for some reason.
There are literally no canine PC races in D&D, so pragmatism commands a few compromises... :/

He actually is a wolf. Unfortunately, there aren't any canine options among DnD's playable races. :/

Somebody needs to homebrew a longsword/greatsword for Maliketh
Im going to make my players face Maliketh and see how hard I can make them Power build.
Tulok, What character do you play in Dungeons & Dragons
What was the song used in the intro?
Did you consider going to Warlock 12 for Lifedrinker for an additional +5 damage per hit?
That would mean missing Improved Divine Smite, which is roughly the same... I would say it's worth it for spells, but, uhhh... Are there any 6th level Warlock spells that are good for Maliketh?
