- Today we have X-Men villain Pyro in Dungeons & Dragons. One of many of Marvel's fire characters, this one has some apparatus and aptitude. Mixing them together is better in D&D 5e.

Fun fact: In the comics, Pyro is a romance novelist, so you have a built-in excuse to give him Calligraphy, the skill of the gods.
God do I love post revival modern Pyro. He's such a fun character.
Since time immemorial...
Pyro is definitely a fun character Him Toad-Blob-Avalanche-Mystice & Destiny are one if the OG "Thunderbolt" teams and the best imop....
Honestly this would be great build for a human who was adopted by fire genasi only to in a moment of dire circumstance, awaken his previously unknown dragon lineage.
Do Etrigan the Demon aka Jason Blood from DC Comics next.
Not sure why, but the old school, comic style title card gave me nostalgia.
Once Artificer came up, I thought we may have had the fire cousin to Mr.Fries, but know you try to avoid repeats. That was a great build and this one is a blast too. We're now also one firey step closer to being able to have an X-men & Brotherhood free for all.
Honestly I love the builds that have many iterations of the same character. Seeing the common elements in the design is interesting and seeing the differences is amazing you get to see the creativity of those designing the character.
I had a similar idea to making Pyro using Wildfire Druid because of the dragon attack move he used in the show- but this is more indepth than what I did lol. Nice job
I always liked Pyro. The inability to create fire is a fair weakness. He's almost overpowered, without being too boring about it.
Yeah, he had Pyrokinesis, he couldn’t create fire, only control it. Which is why starting Artificer makes sense.
Weird trvia: DC loves Ice Dudes and Marvel seems to love fire dudes. We have: mr freeze, icesickle, killer frost, ice(of ice and fire) and captian cold.
Or: pyro, human torch, other human torch, firestar, magma, firelord and nova ( to name some from each company) Marvel does have bobby drake, and DC does have Fire, but its very lopsided with each company
Fun fact about Ironman. His armor is gold titanium alloy, so non magnetic, magneto not a problem for him. If using that suit.
More X-Men builds! Always more X-Men builds!
That extended delay blast fireball is pretty dope. Might have to try that with my paladin/sorcerer.
Man i took a drink every time you said fire and im EXTREMELY hydrated!
Ironic
Love the Survivor references at the beginning
Pikmin 4 finally released, an Olimar build would be neat
Halfling Spore Druid/Armorer Artificer maybe?
got excited asf, jumped the gun and didn't read the full title, thought this was pyro as in team fortress 2. you know what though? no regrets.
The extended duration Delayed Cast Fireball, with elemental adept, would do about 3 or so more damage on average
I’ve been waiting for this for so long and it’s perfect
I had forgotten that I knew who Pyro is
Now that her bankai has been animated, I would really love to see a Rukia Kuchiki build from you, Tulok!
Wait, no Summon or Conjure Elementals (fire)? Thats one of the most unique things about Pyro, he can impart some sentience into fire constructs.
At least make him a Wildfire Druid for the Wildfire Spirit.
Yeah it seemed like a big miss not allowing him to conjure fire elementals
Tulok did recommend swapping out Sorcerer for Evocation Wizard instead, so you can get Summon Elemental that way
@@aquartertwo That works, thanks. Plus Pryo is a writer, so being a wizard makes sense.
I feel like this *isn't* a big miss. As much as he summons big sentient fire monsters, they're usually more like Wall of Fire than Summon Elemental. He could have taken Summon Draconic Spirit or something to balance that out if it's such a problem though.
god, I love pryde of the x-men. "NOTHING MOVES THE BLOB!" "And I wouldn't dream of trying! auf wiedersehen!"
Though imagine using sorcery points for converting the element type of other spells to fire... such as chain lightning.
what about the Pyromancy Sorcerer from the build of Kaladesh, thats the perfect Pyro
Pyromancy
Your innate magic manifests in fire. You are your fire, and your fire is you.
Although this Sorcerous Origin was created for MTG, it is not tied to a specific setting or story, meaning its flavor is open to any setting and story. Regardless, ask your DM before using it.
You could easily create mages of other elements by swapping out the Pyromancer's fire damage and fire resistance for damage and resistance of other elements. For instance, you could create a cryomancer by replacing fire with cold, or an electromancer by replacing fire with lightning. As always, ask your DM before doing so.
Source: Plane Shift - Kaladesh
Heart of Fire
At 1st level, whenever you start casting a spell of 1st level or higher that deals fire damage, fiery magic erupts from you. This eruption causes creatures of your choice that you can see within 10 feet of you to take fire damage equal to half your sorcerer level (minimum of 1).
Fire in the Veins
At 6th level, you gain resistance to fire damage. In addition, spells you cast ignore resistance to fire damage.
Pyromancer's Fury
Starting at 14th level, when you are hit by a melee attack, you can use your reaction to deal fire damage to the attacker. The damage equals your sorcerer level, and ignores resistance to fire damage.
Fiery Soul
At 18th level, you gain immunity to fire damage. In addition, any spell or effect you create ignores resistance to fire damage and treats immunity to fire damage as resistance to fire damage.
So the bane to Pyro is a high level Forge Cleric.
Fire! a Draconic Artillerist combo. Get the Flammer the Heavy Flammer!
Actually Calligraphy would have been perfect as Pyro is a Gothic Horror writer in the comics
Sounds fun!
I’m not gonna lie, I thought you were making a build for the Pyro from TF2. But somehow? This is way, way better.
Force ballista: burst of hot air that knocks enemies back.

You know, I'm kinda glad you're not really considering continuing this series to PathFinder 2e, a build like this is entertaining to watch in 5e, in PF2 it's just the new Kinetacist class. 5e feels uniquely crunchy but limited in a way that makes it really fun to twist out of shape for these videos.
Still pulling for Eglentine Price (Bednobs and Broomsticks), Mary Poppins, Winifred Sanderson (Hocus Pocus), Councilor Troi (ST: tNG), Sir Dragonette (Le Morte d'Arthur/ Idyls of the King), and the Reverend Doctor Syn (the Scarecrow of Romney Marsh).
I made the knight from hollow knight!!! I'm really proud. I've been watching your stuff since I was a sophomore in high school, and now I'm a sophomore in college! I made the Knight as a small thrikeen phantom rogue. The ghost flavoring works really well. The in and out playstyle of hollowknight suits the mobile feat. Expertise in athletics and arcana for jumps and weird magic. You've been my inspiration for character creation. Thank you
To think that i came with the gas mask and flamethrower to mistake the character yet again! my sadness is as big as the fact that Sir Tulok is yet to give us a Tangle the Lemur build (please?) but time will cure that wound, or sear it now that we are here.
St. John Allerdyce is an Australian journalist and novelist, also a recurring antagonist of the X-men in his time with the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, doing things like attempting the assassination of Senator Robert Kelly. Many brotherhoods would pass and go, and even he would join some government task forces, Pyro would keep associating with questionable factions all the way, not bad for someone that try to cook the likes of wolverine and still keep writing, surely all that adventures burning people were a good inspiration.
Hey Tulok!!!! love your vids bro by any chance could you do a mash burnedead build from the anime Mashle: Magic and Muscles
Would love to see you do the Primarchs from Warhammer 40k
"Roll for stats if you want, just keep your multi-classing minimums in mind."
Hoping for some Percy Jackson characters.
Leo Valdez especially.
Fire in the form of flint is a top tier reference
We ever getting a goblin slayer video? Because if so I have a great idea. Goblin slayer is the PC of that one player who tries to BS everything as to why he could do that or knows that other thing. Tried to argue that he gets advantage on fighting orca because they are just big goblins. Tried to argue that flour would explode because he has proficiency in cooking. And so on. Everything is related to goblins or he has a weird backstory reason. Definitely has many levels in ranger but probably the first few levels in fighter. Helmet is the common magic helmet that blacks out your face and gives you read eyes that he found in a dungeon and cut off all the extra bits.
Ahhhh! You used footage from the xmen legends games!!! ❤❤
Absolutely love them and Ultimate Alliance (2 and 3 were not nearly as good tho)
Hear me out... Mr. Game and Watch, is a Glitchling Wild Magic Barbarian
Thanks.
Why does the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse "Mystery Tool" joke make me laugh every time? I should be used to it by now.
Hey Tulok, since you're doing X-Men build in D&D, do you think of playing the new Marvel Multiverse RPG when It comes out? (It comes out tomorrow when im writting this down)
Despite the _nom de guerre,_ Jean Grey does *not* do fire.
Nor does Rachel Grey or any other of the Phoenix avatar (avatars?).
Magma, Firefist, Match, Oya and Thunderbird (the one from India, not the Native American ones) do.
Rogue, Synch, Hope and Mimic might, too, on occasion.
Odo from Deep Space Nine would be a great excuse to bust out a plasmoid (c'mon, a shapeshifting crime investigator... with a phaser).
I dunno, I like your build, but I feel like Pyro should have Evocation Wizard's Sculpt Spells. I don't recall him ever doing friendly fire (excuse the pun) to his allies.
Careful Spell Meta Magic can handle some of that.
@@christianboehlefeld5168 careful spell is just automatic save. With most fire spells that is still half the damage
Some good news from the next edition at least
Id love to see a build of Usopp
Could you do dabi, mr compress, shigaraki, stain and overhaul from mha? Also durza from the eragon book series?
I clicked immediately thinking it was a TF2 Build
It is, if you close your eyes.
Fun mad-build… or mad fun-build
You should do a top 10 of your builds that work in Baldur's Gate 3.
Well he’s definitely a Pyro, alright.
*looks at thumbnail* Yeah I sure hope he does.
A Survivor joke earns the thumbs up. 🙃
Can you do T-1000? The "liquid" terminator actually made of nanomachines.
I just watched The Green Knight and would the green knight be an Eladrin fighter? Not much of a video but needed confirmation.
First request for Akubane from Getbackers
"And it can do two other things... ... ... ANYWAYS-"
Woah there
Can you please do a Hyuga, Uhchiha, Senju and Uzumaki clans in DnD?
I am actually a little miffed. I saw the title and because the update came about a few weeks ago, I thought that this was the TF2 Pyro video. 😢
Still, good stuff as usual.
Jin Sakai build when??
I'd make him battlemaster/assassin with either a life cleric dip or the magic initiate: cleric feat
So how do you patreon a request anyway?
I know it just came out but can you try to make Sora in bg3
You should do Cirilla from the Witcher ! !
You should try doing some characters from The Dragon Prince!!
That would mean watching it 😢
Season 1 sucked, season 2 was alright, season 3 was great, and somehow season 4 was the worst yet. Can't even work up the care to watch 5th
I think if I told my DM I wanted to pour a load of gasoline in my bag of holding, they would (rightfully) kick me out
Would really like to see a build of Fran from Reincarnated as a Sword.
Ok- with elemental adept, each die has a 2/6 chance of rolling a 2, and a 1/6 chance of rolling 3,4,5,6. That means, on average, 6 die will roll 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 22 damage, and 22/6 is 3.666…, as opposed to a regular d6 having an average roll of 3.5. 32*3.6… is 117.333… average damage, a whopping increase of 5.3 from the mean rolls without elemental adept, which is 112. That’s an increase of 4.7%.
There’s a reason people take elemental adept mostly to ignore resistances…
How to play HUNK from Resident Evil
While I appreciate the dark souls reference, I haven't had to deal with that lol. In DS1, pyromancies scale off the level of your pyromancy flame and don't scale with even a single stat. It's later DS that require, what, int/faith for scaling? Barely played 2 and haven't played 3.
Dude, RUclips is flipping BURYING your videos.
I feel like it’ll be hard to hit someone with delayed blast fireball, seeing as the enemies can walk out of the 20 foot radius long before you drop concentration. Blowing up the door to an ancient tomb or vault maybe.
Trick is to hold the bead for the charge time, then throw it and immediately detonate it
@@illegalmemedealer3549 I thought that if you succeeded the Dex save from touching it you immediately throw it up to 40 feet. It didn’t really say anything about carrying it around. Edit: So if they can get over 50 feet away they’re perfectly safe, and you might blow yourself up.
Please make Beast (Hank Mccoy)
Brother, have you seen the system called Torment 20? in Tormenta 20 you can literally create whatever you want much easier
You say that magma and Jean are the X-men's only fire guys. but what about Sunfire, Rachel Summers, and chamber? also going to be super pedantic here, but technically, Magma doesn't have fire powers she has geothermal heat powers (but writers and artists just treat them as fire powers enough that that distinction doesn't really matter 🤷🏻)
Anybody else want Cinderace or Meowscarada? It’s been awhile since we had a Harengon or Tabaxi build.
… Would Skeledirge be a Lizardfolk?
If we're doing Pokémon, I want Blaziken.
@@StriderZesseiIt has been too long since we got a Kenku build…
There are creatures who are immune to fire goof thing the elemental adept feat lowers that to a resistance then 😁😁
This is a hot 🥵 build
When TF2 Pyro?
This is very nice, but hear me out, chuck norris build when?
That's hot 💅
It's not like there's an artificer subclass that gets a flame thrower or something.
Wait.
Always a fan of Survivor references. I came up with a Dwarf Paladin using Matt Mercer's Oath of the Open Sea based on Rupert at one point.
First. Calling Sorcerer/Artificer.
Hey I was first
Character Level 5. Called it.
How can we make puffin Forest DND character: absurd.
Boost
Beavis approves.
BECAUSE CAPING KILLED MY PYBRO!
Hello people first!!!!
Maybe just play an actual Marvel Super Heroes game? The d100 system from the 90s is great. 5e is a fine game but it's not especially flexible or good for adaptation into other genres.
I thought it was Team Fortress 2 Pyro :(
Wrong pyro I want tf2 pyro
Lazy
Just fireball the build
