    I was a set hand for a film crew for a bit, and a stunt double got bored, put on some stuff called flare gel (which spares you from the fire i think?) lit his hands and head on fire, yelled "Ghost Rider is here for your souls" and started shadow boxing. I blocked his punches that were closer than he thought.

    The "Come And Get It" attack does combo nicely with Retaliation; you can do four attacks total in one turn at that point all with advantage by using your Action, Bonus Action, and Reaction, and accepting one attack against you with advantage, whilst also denying that creature their Reaction against anything else.

    If we want to be pedantic, there's 125 possible Totem Barbarian combinations before factoring in each Tiger 6 Variant as you choose an animal at all 3 tiers instead of only the level 3 selection. IE Bear, Tiger, Eagle gives us the super tank who can grab whatever they want out of the air and still have room for out of combat skill monkeying.

    On the Beast Barberian- 1.I think it's meant to be the monster subclass not just werewolf.
    2. Lycanthropes are a motif that exists all around the globe, not just Europe. So you can have were jaguars/tigers/fisherman cats and have the whole swimming thing make sense.
    EDIT: Sorry for not making a more sophisticated comment.

    • @bonewizard
      @bonewizard  2 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      1. It can be. I just think lycanthrope is the intended interpretation by the writers. I can see this as eldritch being, or even dr jekyll thing.
      2. Oh ya, people becoming beasts is not an uncommon cultural motif. It goes from native american myth to even christian myth! All them cool and crazy. That being said, i still think the swimming speed comes out of left feild lol.

      Okay. Hear me out here.
      You ready?
      Go into barbarian just enough to get bear totem spirit, just focus on dex/con, forget about strength completely, dump it fully if you want, just focus on dex and con first and foremost, be a shifter, then go rogue the rest of the way. and be the truly perfect tank. Sure, your damage is a bit less, but at the cost of not having to focus on so many stats. Just be a whirling unkillable dervish of death. I recommend taking the Tough feat as well ASAP to help compensate for the rogue's less than barbarian hp. And anything else that can increase your hp pool.

    Zealots at lvl 20 are, genuinely, unkillable.

Crawboyo confirmed, himself, that there are two unkillable classes in the game. Moon druid being the second, but technically, if you find a way to nova hard enough... They *can* die.

    This is the content I live for. I can give a strong AGREE with the changes to Storm Barb; if the subclass' features are all passive auras, more range suits them perfectly. I wasn't aware of the Wild Magic subclass tho, just imagining some crazy fuck glitching stuff out and in from reality looks like a fun way to play, and surely must be some scary experience to fight from the enemy's perspective. Great ending, violence is a question and the answer tends to be yES.

    Prior to this video, I made a Tabaxi Zealot who was a true luchador and his rage was reflavored to dramatically inflating his ego so much, he refuses to sell to weak-ass attacks and convincing himself that he is a god. He did learn later that the god that sponsored his abilities was basically a chad too, so he preached his new gym-bro god while taking smack.
    If I had to redo his character to include your new feature, it would have to be reflavored to either a smacking a corpse awake and making it wake up or telling a recently killed victim to “walk it off” and explain some shit.

    I think what may help barbarian some more, after getting into a random talk with a DM, is two things. One, make barbarian Rage bonus equal to proficiency mod. Gives a nice bonus that scales when appropriate and isn't too overpowering. In fact, it feels much better than waiting until nearly level goddamn 20 for a +4.
    The other is fixing the base barbarian midrange abilities for a bit more cohesiveness. Look, Brutal Critical is nice and all, but unless Reckless Attack is giving out crits to a very lucky player, it's effectively an empty class feature while everyone else relishes in damage time.

    Honestly I like the bezerker rework. When I did a tweak of this I gave it a con save like how relentless rage (I think thats the ability?) worked to avoid exahustion. I also changed the 10th level feature out for one that lets you remove a single level of ehaustion on a short rest and all of them on a long rest. AS for the intimidate factor, also moved to 3rd level where you et intimidation proficency and the ability to use stregnth for it in place of charisma. Both are intresting but I think I like your better.

    I've been working on reworking pretty much every base 5e class and subclass for a while now, and these videos are a true inspiration. Glad I found your channel when I did, really big fan of your work! One thing that I have to question now that I'm on Barbarians myself is, how does your proposed Greater Wild Surge feature interact with Controlled Surge? Do you roll four dice, two per effect? Asking since you said in the video that this is an additional feature rather than a replacement for controlled surge.

    Yep, this and the fighter Bone Wizard versions are the ones I'm handing out to my players next time we start a new game. Can't wait for your views on the other classes.
    Mr. Bone Wizard, if you don't mind (and please use this if you like) I would like to suggest some changes in the same vein as you, little changes that fix big problems, that I think work and use in my table.
    Warlock:
    1- Let them know their extended spell list for free (they don't have that many slots anyways).
    2- Give them a free cantrip that represent their patron (Patron blessing) and all the invocations that affect the eldritch blast also work with this cantrips. Ex. Firebolt (for Fiend patron) with a range of 300ft because of eldritch spear.
    3- In addition to what they already have, at lvl 20 get a type of Divine Intervention (external interference) but you roll a percentile dice and if you roll a number equal to or lower than your warlock level, your patron intervenes.
    Sorcerer:
    1 - You add the new rulers from the Aberrant Mind and the Clockwork Soul to the old subclass, extended list that they know for free and you can replace one spell you gained from this feature with another spell of the same level from a school of magic that your subclass is related to from the sorcerer, warlock, or wizard spell list. Ex. Draconic Bloodline evocation and abjuration. Wild magic, you roll two d8 the select two school that you can choose from, if you get the same number twice you can select one school of your choosing.
    2 - You can only have sorcery point equal to your sorcerer lvl and can only have spell slots of each level equal to the ones that the spell table says, unless you get an item or feat that says otherwise.
    3 - In addition to what they already have, at lvl 20 you get access to all metamagic options.
    Monk
    1 - Step of the Wind and Empty Body are free but Empty Body is one use por day.
    2 - Martial Arts die develop as follows lvl1 d4, lvl5 d6, lvl11 2d4, lvl17 2d6 and lvl20 3d6.
    3 - I have no idea how to fix some subclasses and the lvl20 feature.
    Bard
    1 - Countercharm: in addition to what they already have, if the bard succeeds in their roll and if they maintain concentration on the countercharm, other friendly creatures within 30 feet of you can reroll their saving throws against being frightened or charmed at the end of each of their turn.
    2- Superior Inspiration: in addition to what they already have, anyone that uses oyur inspiration die can also add your charisma modifier.
    Druid
    I use three of the Treantmonk variant rules to help Circle of the Land and Moon,
    1 - For Circle of the Land with your wild shape you can turn to creatures with the plant subtype.
    2 - For the Circle of the Moon. Primal Strike: in addition to what they already have, when you hit an enemy with an attack while in Wild Shape, you may expend a spell slot to enhance the attack with elemental damage (cold, fire, lightning or poison, your choice). The damage added is equal to 1d10 points per level of spell slot expended.
    3- For the Circle of the Moon. Thousand Forms: in addition to what they already have, you add your Wisdom Modifier to the Armor class of your Wildshape forms.
    I hope anyone that reads this finds it interesting.

    • @bonewizard
      @bonewizard  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Glad you like the changes, I hope they work for your table. I love comments like this, homebrewing to fix problems, good stuff.
      Warlock:
      1. Agree.
      2. Its a neat idea, if done well. Personally i just give them one more cantrip than it says on the warlock table. If they are going to get so few spell slots, then they should get more cantrips. Also check out the link, it has way to improve other cantrips through evocations. I think most of the ideas are solid.
      dawnforgedcast.myshopify.com/products/warlock-invocations-reforged
      3. I think people sleep on eldritch master too much. You can buff you and your friends before a fight, take a minute, and then get all your spells back. I think the original version is great. You could give it cleric's features, but I personally feel warlock patrons don't care as much for their followers as gods do to clerics, but that's just me. Id say make something original.
      Sorcerer:
      1. Agree.
      2. Is this to combat coffee lock? if so, the better option is to just ask your players to not abuse some game rules. Your friends will listen.
      3. agree, but they should still learn more as they level up. The current rate is to slow and you never learn enough.
      Monk:
      I don't wanna hit the character limit, so pass.
      Bard:
      1. I Prefer this one we made. Our bard enjoys it.
      "Countercharm requires a bonus action and not an action. Additionally you can also use this ability as a reaction to 1 creature as long as they are within 120ft."
      2. That's pretty good.
      Druid:
      1. Not super familiar with plant stat blocks, sorry.
      2. its interesting. Id have the run numbers, but it has potential.
      3. maybe
      extra Moon Druid bit: The actual answer to make them better is to just give them more beasts to turn into. You think it would be easy to add on more, But NOPE. Currently working on the druid video btw.

  • @PotatoPatatoVonSpudsworth
    @PotatoPatatoVonSpudsworth 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I think the best way to rework Barbarian would be to add this to the default rage:
    _When you rage, choose 1 addition damage type, excluding Psychic. You become resistant to all damage of that type until the rage ends._
    This would allow all Barbarian subclasses to keep up with Bear Totem, and make them all less reliant on the DM giving you the kind of damage you can actually tank. Yet at the same time, one single resistance wouldn't be enough to devalue Bear Totem's ability to shrug off anything, especially if you're uncertain what damage the enemy is capable of when you choose.

      @@bonewizard I just read it and I agree it is very strong. About the hexblade my opinion is that it makes sense thematically to dip only one level in warlock to increase your power but I think fey, fiend, and GOO don't have strong lvl one features in comparison. My idea is that every pact of the blade warlock should be able to use CHA instead of STR/DEX when attacking with their pact weapon. At my table I made Dark one's blessing an ability usable prof bonus/day that creates a zone in shape of a cross that buff the warlock and debuffs enemies inside of it so it makes combat positioning even more strategic and the name fits better in my opinion

  • @theawkwardpotato1973
    @theawkwardpotato1973 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Overall agree. But, couple things I would do differently.
    1. I would just buff the frenzy to make it more worth it. You're risking instant death, after all. For every level of exhaustion you get, you get even more powerful. Exactly how, I'm not sure yet. Let's play around with that. Ideas in the comments, maybe you all can think of something.
    2. For the beast barbarian... the first two natural weapons are fine. They give some good extra utility or defense in exchange for a bit of damage. A bonus to AC is nothing to scoff at, alright? And a d8 isn't awful. It's not greatsword or greataxe, sure, but it's stronger than a shortsword without sneak attack. Which, yeah, isn't saying much, but
    2a. More specifically. The bite. The comparison to storm is particularly egregious. It could use a bit of a buff, I agree with you, but it's actual straight-up healing, not temporary hp, which doesn't stack. You can eat someone and go back to half health in theory.
    You are straight-up regaining hit points whenever you deal damage. Maybe just remove the "up to half health" restriction. That should make it a ton better. Plus, you don't have to use a bonus action. Just an attack, which you get at least 2 of per turn. Instead of just the one bonus action per turn. Yes, you don't heal your teammates like the tundra storm path ability does, but it is HEALING. Once you've got 2 temporary hit points, that's all you're getting until some other bunch of temporary hit points comes to replace it. You can't add on more temporary hit points to make a ton of temp hp, but you can have as much healing as you want as long as you're below your max hit points.
    3. It doesn't have to be a werewolf. It's BEAST barbarian. There's not just wolves, remember, as beasts. Why lock into just aspects of a wolf? Why not a fucking great white, or a goddamn grizzly bear? Or a fuckin' gopher or great ape? All of those are much more than capable of tearing very new, very unpleasant holes into people. Most of them more than others. Hell, an ape can generally rip someone in half if they really feel like it.

    • @joelsasmad
      @joelsasmad 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      1. I'd probably just make it so that berserker barbarians can become immune to the effects of exhaustion while raging. You push yourself to fight through exhaustion through sheer rage, only to pass out in a heap after battle ends, needing a long rest to get better. Probably would also make it so they can recover all their exhaustion in one long rest at later levels.

    Personally an idea is that you could use intimidation with either strength or charisma, because intimidating with strength is a show of strength it is intimidating physical presence, intimidation with charisma is a more mental presence it is the same but different, so it makes sense to be able to use either for intimidation
