They may not be historically accurate, but they sure know how to take on overwhelming odds. Today we're building the Spartans from 300
We do a deep dive to find the best ways to build out these warriors from the minds of Frank Miller and Zack Snyder

Couldn't avoid making a video about these absolute units, some of the most iconic ancient soldiers from Sparta and the stylized world of 300
Tulock: *hated 300 so much that he refused to make this build*
DND Builds: *THANOS MEMES*
Damn, imagine a party with 2 of these, a their rogue, an abjuration wizard, and a War cleric
adding in an Abjuration Wizard would be so nuts with all of the blocking abilities. Overall this would be one hell of a party.
Pal 2/Abj Wizard 18 abj ward, magic disruption, shield , smite plus spells.
Ancestral Guardian is the best subclass for this. When you rage, you can summon your own phalanx of ancient hoplite ghosts to help defend your allies.
Ohhhh I didn't think of that, it's such a solid idea for your own personal phalanx
Now I am torn with getting totem of the wolf, but getting ur own phalanx sounds so cool.
The wolf totem works best when you have a party of fellow Spartans, while the ancestral guardians works best when you’re the only one left.
"Everyone! phalanx forma- oh crap everyone got killed...ah welp i guess im doing this on my own now"
This is REALLY well done! love the addition of plenty of high quality movie scenes that made sense to what you were talking about
Thanks, I try to throw in as many references as possible to all my vids, otherwise you just have to listen to me talking non-stop for 10-20 min lol
Totally agree
Using this build on a strahd wife, can't wait to mess my party up with this character build....
That's going to be brutal
Another interesting way of doing it would have been to get Pole Arm Mastery (yes, it works with spears) for one more attack with the butt of the spear.
If you want a more historically accurate Hoplite, basically do the same thing but use medium armour. This allows you to keep your Dex at 14 (or maybe 16 if you also get Medium Armour Mastery). That way you don't have to invest as much in Dex so you can afford PAM and the Tough feat.
They'd definitely get MAM irl, but idk if there's enough ASI to go around for that
Played a wolf totem barbarian with my feral halfling. She was one of my favorite support-attacker hybrids, using her Rage to empower her Fighter and Paladin partners with advantage on attacks. The three of them held any line between their combined offensive and defensive prowess.
Because Gar was raised by wolves, she also wielded her scimitar in her mouth and ran on all fours when she was raging. It was incredibly fun flavor.
Good luck on the channel! I like the idea :)
Thanks, looks like we have some definite cross over of interest based off of your channel too.
Wow - We both hit 2k subscribers. Pretty cool!!
Awesome
This is gonna be good I kinda wanna take the unarmed fighting style for sick spartan kicks I could probably fit it in somehow maybe if I roll my stats high enough I could replace an ability score with a feat to grab that as well as protection
That's exactly why I always get nervous when my players roll for stats lol
Personally, I'd take 5th level in Barbarian instead of Fighter 1. Doing this means that you get your second swing much earlier, as well as the Fast Movement ability, which makes your speed 40. And I'd consider taking Barbarian 6, because you get your second Path feature and step up to 4 rages between rests.
I could easily see this being used in a Theros Game.
I think the Spartans would actually be war domain clerics
OK. Loved the comic and movie.
Well hopefully you love the DnD build too 😉
I like your stuff keep it up
I think they all have the interception fighting style somewhere...when he was explaining how each one covers the next with their shield and with everyone one having it it would be disgusting 😁
Yeah if you just have a full party built like this it would be absolutely insane
Anything for a Roman Legionnaire or Centurian? Thinking Titus Pullo and Lucious Vernaus
Spears should be: d8; versatile d10 and, when used two-handed, can be lunged one-handed, back to d8, but with reach.
Leonidas himself would have bard levels instead of fighter levels, possibly colledge of lore since while he is known not only to lead his people but also demorilize his enemies, plus he would have charisma out the wazoo
Yeah that's why I built it for the average member of the 300, because Leonidas just had too many stats
@@dndbuilds yeah I can see that :]
Warforged Spartan
That's a great idea purely based off the name "Warforged" I hadn't thought of that when I made this one... Damn...
Strictly from an optimization POV, I really, *REALLY* loathe the idea of waiting for level 9 to get a second attack. I believe I would either go straight to barbarian 5 (accepting the duplication of Extra Attack and the loss of one ASI) or go barbarian 1/fighter 5/barbarian 4/fighter ...
Totally agreed, I don't think I'd be able to hold out that long either.
I just got baldurs gate 3, and I love your videos, how would I do this in bg3 which doesn't have a variant human?
You would just have to use it as the first feat, which might leave one of your stats a little lacking, but you should still get pretty close to the same result
@@dndbuilds thank you so much!! I'm currently doing the guts from berserk build in bg3 and it's working very well
@@zander1046 actually now that I think about it, I would definitely recommend not bothering with the shield master feet which I believe I gave this build. And just focus on the stats, it would be far more valuable in baldur's Gate 3
Do you have one for Viking?
Niceeee
What about a samurai build
Got a particular popular media samurai in mind?
@@dndbuilds Jin Saki from Ghost Of Tsushima?
You do know that Samurai is a Fighter sub class, yes?
Champion subclass would fit better. Standard Spartans would be just better trained, better focused, and more driven. Plus extra fighting style, and the extra crits all the time with wolf totem and piercer... just saying a line of these guys would be a problem for most any army
Dragon quest 11 how to make the luminary
Spartans were historically very intelligent, so making that one of their dump stats...doesn't really track lol
the Spartans are descended from heracles not arise. just an fwi
also these types of soldiers well being spartan actually have a name out side of that. there called hoplites.
Yeah, I know there's a more accurate way to depict them historically, but I had to stick a bit closer to the "300" version just for the sake of entertainment. I loved how this turned out though
@@dndbuilds fair it did turn out very well.
Assassins creed in dnd
That was pretty inevitable I think, I think the hardest part is going to be figuring out a few of the specialized items and weapons, but I think I could do it.
where tough feat
Dude, DMing or playing in a party of Spartans...
🥑
Avocado - 1 hp, randomly has either 16 AC or 8 AC depending on Ripeness. But it's impossible to tell whether or not it's ripe until an attack roll has been made on it.
