      Psychometry, also known as token-object reading, or psychoscopy, is a form of extrasensory perception characterized by the claimed ability to glean accurate knowledge of an object's history by making physical contact with that object.

    No joke, my first EVER dnd character was a Fire Genasi Ghostslayer. Originally I was actually planning to go Lycan, but it was a Ghost of Saltmarsh campaign, and Level 3 came on the heels of fighting a whole-ass basement of skeletons plus an undead alchemist. After getting beat to shit and nearly losing a teammate, my character chose his subclass with the mindset of "You know what? F@ck the undead IN PARTICULAR!" I never looked back.
    Great video, can't wait for the next one

    I’d honestly reflavor this subclass to hunt nightmare monsters, because I personally think the plane of dreams is very underrated and cool, and I’m working on my own version of it too. When I think about the concept of a dream world I think of Little Big Planet, Little Nightmares, Okami, Rayman, etc.

    Ghost slayer blood hunter Fizbans gem dragonborn cristal (radiant) with mage slayer and sentinel feat might just be the best non spell caster anti-mage. Undead spell casters (like a lich) might want to be a little bit more careful around them. Between the teleportation denying brand of tethering, often super effective damage and opportuninty attacks with any spell, they'll be in a bit of a pickle.

    • @jamesbarton3017
      @jamesbarton3017 10 месяцев назад

      not at all. Charisma is not an important score for a blood hunter in the slightest, mechanically at least. Constitution is obviously very important given how much damage you could be taking then Strength or Dexterity depending on what kind of weapons you want to focus on then Intelligence or Wisdom for your hemocraft modifer

  • @NerdEnthusiast
    @NerdEnthusiast 10 месяцев назад +1

    The only problem with Blood Hunter as a class is how insanely MAD it is. You basically need good stats in Strength/Dexterity (for weapon damage), Constitution (so you don’t faint at the sight of your own blood), Intelligence (so your Hemocraft isn’t wimpy), AND Wisdom (because Perception checks). You’re versatile, sure, but you’re stretched incredibly thin, even more so than the likes of Monk or even Paladin.

    • @JavoZier

    • @youmightbeadnd
      @youmightbeadnd  10 месяцев назад +2

      So while I agree, this is actually what I like about the blood hunter. I think it makes for some more well rounded builds when you're not forcing yourself to max a few stats. Also a lot of the blood maledicts just happen without a save unless you amplify meaning you dont necessarily need a high hemocraft mpd to make it work. Food for thought, but thanks for the insight!
