    Donaar's Divine Smite does 2d8 with a 1st level slot (+1d8 per higher level cast; and of course an extra 1d8 to undead on top of the chosen level of smite), not just a 1d8 as was rolled (iirc). Divine Smite is the life of the paladin and it should be exploited to its fullest.

    • @ryanhartman8655

      Ryan Hartman It's all good. Didn't know if it was corrected, but wanted to make sure you got all the damage you could. Donaar's a beast and that was the greatest beast mode.

      @Im-Not-a-Dog 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      They’re forgetting about the stun advantage, and typically the only time you get advantage for a team up in 5e is if you’re a rogue with Sneak Attack or if your character has some other Feat or Feature that gives you advantage when your target is engaged with another creature.

    • @mikehenderson5338
      @mikehenderson5338 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Paladin Smite-spend a lvl 1 spell slot when you hit with a melee weapon and do +2d8 radiant (3d8 if fiend or undead), higher lvl spell slot adds d8 per lvl above first. Paladin Fighting Style-Great Weapon Fighting = reroll 1s & 2s ( including smites) . Great Weapon Master (feat, Donaar took at lvl 4), can take -5 to hit on. Melee hit and gain +10 damage. The feat also gives an addition attack if you crit or kill a foe (max 1 extra attack/turn)

  • @broutefoin
    @broutefoin 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Gotta be "that guy" . Donaar's attacks Great weapon master attacks and smites were wrong. You only get the +10 damage if you take a -5 on the attack roll (which would likely make the second attack miss at a 15). Divine smite starts at 2d8 for 1st level slots and adds 1d8 for every level after first to a max of 5d8 so he should have been rolling an extra d8 on every smite he did.

    • @DragonKnightJin
      @DragonKnightJin 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      You're correct on the Smite damage die. You are not right on the GWM attack penalty, though. He has a +7 to hit, so that becomes a +2 if he does GWM. That means that 18 became a 20.
      Your calculations would have him rolling at -10.

      Anyone bitching about the C Team being too PC should probably learn a thing or two about... Well, anything about the people or group that they've ostensibly been paying a lick of attention to. If you're bitching about stuff being too PC, then this is a group composed entirely of people whose politics and moral schema are antithetical to yours, and you probably don't want to support them, and should get lost.
      So long and good riddance.
