Hey! Guess what. You're Awesome and thanks for watching. I promise this is the best DND tutorial based on a 30 year old Jeff Foxworthy joke you'll ever see. Stick around for more and vote in the comments for which subclass you'd like to next.
I love bards and you should too. Is the meme finally dead guys? Pick on Rangers, they get kinda boring from now on... lol

The best part is when you have a DM who lets you flavor your insults do deal different types of damage. Like if an insult is particularly spicy then you also have a chance to do fire damage or if you're make a very detailed description of an attack they may let it happen. Cutting word can be flavored so many ways to make it even more fun
“We never liked you, we just let you fight us because we felt bad for you.”
DM: add 2d6 Cold Damage
wow, that's an amazing flavor text! I love it!
Thanks! That's a beautiful idea!
@@vek144 you're welcome let me know how it turns out if you get around to using it :)
Writing this down for myself
The one advantage of a crappy Capstone is it means you can do a one or two level dip without feeling like you've missed out.
My personal Countercharm Buff. Use your action and all creatures of your choice within range get to make an immediate saving throw to end all charm or frighten effects on them and they add the bard's charisma modifier as an additional bonus to the saving throw.
It's a neat buff to Countercharm. Usually I let player use it for let a number of charmed allies within range to redo the saving throws with advantage to end the charmed status, and they can redo the roll with advantage everytime the bard use this feature.
Today really is the best day ever
I always love comments like this.
Everyday is what we make of it.
The prophecy. It has become true. The Bard is finally done with our shit and took over.
Love this college. Really hard to decide between lore and eloquence for me.
Lore is good, Eloquence is borderline busted. But I love the Additional Magical Secrets so much. I took Shield and Magic Missile, because my compatriots were a Paladin and a Cleric both with Heavy Armor.
Higher level: I'd defer to eloquence albeit low level that's fine.
The Lore Bard would absolutely question the validity of a global movement to vaccinate everyone with a big gov/big pharm, untested shot. That’s how the flayers get ya.
Id love to see one of these for the Echo Knight Fighter. Also, congrats to Bards for finally getting this episode!
Easy fix to Countercharm: Just make it similar to a Paladin aura: All allies within15 to 30 feet of you (maybe the range scales, up to you on what would be considered a balanced range) get advantage to saving throws against being charmed or frightened. Boom, the end. Requiring any actions from the Bard is silly. Their action economy is already pretty busy. Just make this a passive aura and move on.
Lore bara are the most versatile and the vanilla mechanics gives you a blank canvas for roleplay and character development. That's my favorite part.
The Lore Bard has been freed.
_Who will be our next victim..???_
Super happy to hear that excerpt from the greatest children's book of all time.
I fell out at 3:18 and instantly started singing.
Man is a true Bard and a man of culture
7:37 That would indeed be an impressive feat of deception via performance.
Oath of the Open Sea Paladin would be cool, it's another subclass by Matthew Mercer which is just really cool and flavorful
Now were just waiting for the lore of college bard and bard college of lore
My dude keep these coming , you quickly became my favorite DnD channel !! Too funny and too true
Nice video, once again.
Bards are so much fun. Lore Bard still stands out even with the addition of the Eloquence Bard.
I’m using a Swords Bard with a hex dip in a CoS campaign.
As far as new sub-classes to look at, I really like the flavor of the Order of Scribes wizard. If you haven’t looked it over, I recommend it. It takes nerd wizard to a whole new level, and can really create some crazy antics for a party.
These videos are so fun thank you for all the hard work
Absolute fire parity I can’t wait to see more of your contact
YMBA: "Countercharm is too situational to be useful"
Ranger: "Welcome to the club"
My first Bard was a Lore Bard multiclassed with a Great Old One Warlock (Pact of the Tome, for more of that knowledge-y flavor). He was a lot of fun.
As a choir kid and a Bard main I approve of the singing
Been voting for this subclass forever now, all you clowns denying us this amazing 9-5 cover should be ashamed of yourselves
My personal Magical secret choices for level 10 is Find Greater Steed and Gravity Sinkhole.
It’s great to see the Lore Accords finally realized and I love that you referenced how long it took us to get here in the video. 😂 Keep up the great content and congrats on growing your channel!
That 9-5 rendition was masterful 👌👏
Looking forward to the next one!
really outdid yourself with this vid man
I love the bard class, in the moment im torn beetween lore or eloquence for my next character, both seems good
DJ Pimento Cheese would put Dolly to shame. Great vid as always dude!
Thanks for the content.
How is this page only 12 k? You will one day be a big hitter in the d&d TH-cam scene.
Love the song
Finally.
The peoples choice.
Lore Bards may not win at polls, but they are winners in our hearts.
what is that anime? 1:38
The wait was worth it
Finally Collage Bard of the Lore is here
Wow, the song.... approved.
What anime clip was used in Magical Inspiration? :D looks cool!!
"My favorite children's book." YES! YES! YES!
As a kazoo Bard, I am rather disappointed you didn't mention the kazoo as a spellcasting focus.
You did mention the slide whistle, which is another of my favourites, so I'll let it slide.
Alchemist Artificer please!
Hold on now. About that turtle thing .....
Welp, let's say this. I love these videos and I was thinking "wait, for my next character I have to choose between Lore or Valoe bard!" So why don't ya help my indecisive ass by making a Valor bard video? It would be good to help with the "extra attack syndrome" you seem to have developed. But it's on you to add it to the poll.
FINALLY
😧 ...and YT sticks an ad right in the middle of the song... 😢
HYPE!!
Lore Bard is my favorite subclass too, but in my case it's because I like playing nerdy smart characters. Which is why Knowledge Cleric is my favorite Cleric Subclass, and it's virtually unheard of for me to play a character that doesn't have Intelligence or Wisdom in their top three stats, with many of them having both, and absolutely no one having Intelligence as a dump stat, and only my Fighter having Wisdom as a dump stat. (Which is why I call that character an idiot)
I saw Azura!😍💙
FINALLLYYY🎉🎉
The circle is complete, finally
Can't wait for ancestral guardian
I love lore bards... they are what I used to play before there was a lore bard.
SoulKnife Rogue next pls
Yeah okay Lore Bard is pretty good.
Also, protip: Do a one-level dip into _literally any other class_ for level 20 because HOT DAMN is the Bard capstone ever completely useless.
Omg I died of laughter when I saw Colleen.
what is the best races to choose for playing College of Lore Bard Bard?
All I'm gonna say is Dolly would be proud.
One of my favourite 3rd level magical secrets is call lightning it can actually make the bard a threat and it scales nicely
0:13 The profession of a damn fine asinine centaur.
Collage of lore bard in BG3
Oathbreaker Paladin pls
For my fellow Brandon Sanderson enjoyer I believe this is what Wit from storm light archive is
Do scribes next
1:38 - 1:54 what anime?
Lore bard just spend to last two levels to take divination wizard so he can control reality completely
Judgement day must be close
Is the rest of the party using your body and the bodies of your bardic friends as sandbags? Congratulations, you might be a College of Lore Bard!
So… I’m Shawn Spencer?
You know what I hope the next round of subclassea are, the (commonly considered) worst subclasses of each class
As someone who plays a College of Lore Bard, I should warn y'all that it ain't an easy class to play. It really shines as a support class. Be as annoying as possible. Within reason. LOL.
I mean...much as I appreciate it, you could just look at the spell list to know Bard specialized in support.
Hell, even Valor Bard, the martial tank subclass is all about supporting your allies with slapping bitches being an option, but not the focus.
It’s more than the class Mechanics, although that is definitely true. If you don’t have the ability to shit talk and talk shit in real life, they are hard to role play in a way which is really satisfying, fun and memorable to either the player or the party, imo.
Example - casting Tasha’s hideous laughter is a lot more fun if you can actually think of something funny to say before you cast the spell, even though mechanically it’s unnecessary.
@@VesiustheBoneCruncher Playing a stereotypical Bard isn't necessary. I played my Lore Bard like an aloof fae creature from the faewild (Eladrin race) and I picked nature themed spells, and support spells. Essentially, a charisma Druid. Point is, the character wasn't charming in the traditional sense, it was more otherworldly and passive, and instead of insults while casting spells, she would whisper dark threats or take on a scary visage. It was a fun, different take on the Bard. (I took web and conjure animals for level 6 magical secrets. Not the most powerful but in theme for the character. I also grabbed the Fae touched feat for misty step, also on theme.)
@@greyelf1537 yeah, an approach like that is definitely the way 👍. But conceptually it’s hard, as I said. It’s huge fun to come to come up with a character like that, and deeply rewarding.
My point is more for people setting off into their 5e career, thinking that somehow, playing a stereotypical bard will magically make them one. And it won’t. And it is this class that I feel that role playing skill, which anyone can learn, but takes some people more time, is most exposed.
Season 1 of DCA was a great example of this, a newbie player (who ended up fantastic, but was painful to start with), who compounded their mechanical confusion with trying to be an emo (further compounding the problem) bard.
It took *Chris Perkins* an entire season of giving him gold to coax him out of his shell, and to his credit, come out of his shell he did, but it was obviously difficult for everyone, not least the player. Most DMs are not Chris Perkins
@@VesiustheBoneCruncher dude, I talk more shit playing Warlocks than I ever did with a Bard.
In fact, my favorite Warlock was a private investigator that talked like a Devil May Cry character and skirted the law just enough to get information that the local authorities couldn't.
Like...my Bard wanted to be a hero like his father. He focused on protecting people. My Warlock was an asshole with one-liners who burned people and enemies alike. Talking shit isn't essential to anything here. It's just funny.
what's that show at 1:39?
1:38 Hello, what is this from?
Was told (in Path of the Giant Barbian) that it's Wizard Barristers
Now if he just takes down the video, and throws the bard back on the polls; We can all keep the meme alive!
The Lore bard is a little uneven. The additional magical secrets is spot on, as is the bonus proficiencies. But cutting words is not lore based. It feels like it should be part of a jester subclass or something.
whats the anime at 1:40?
Found the anime it's called wizard barristers
I need the sauce for the anime at 1:18
Google says Wizard Barristers
@@YEEYEEHWDY nope it's not that but thank anyway I have something to watch now
I think half the reason nobody plays high level campaigns is that half the capstones are mid to low tier garbage.
Weird request, but when the Champion Fighter comes up, can you please not include any frogs in it? My Champion Fighter player has an intense phobia of even the word "frog", and I'd like him to be able to watch the video without going into convulsions. XD
Fiiiiinally lol
WHO VOTED FOR THIS?!
WHO, DARN YOU!!
Bard is a specialized class like an assassin. It’s not a sub class. That’s what’s wrong with 5th edition.
I want it to be known i was one of the generals in the campaign to keep the lore bard from being nominated. Had we the resources we would have kept it down indefinitely
Now lets make a party with all the subclasses we've covered and see how that handles a BBEG
