    6:58 add the act 1 caustic band from the under dark. Vendor in myconid colony. (One of the three, maybe the mushroom seller with the dumb husband). It’s a flat +2 acid damage to weapon attacks if I recall (there’s a chance it’s only melee attacks, can’t remember .. I know it doesn’t work on thrown weapons for some reason).
    The ring is a must on every play through. Mathematically it’s about the same as a 1D4 acid damage bonus (1D4 avg to 2.5). It combines best with characters that maximize attacks per turn.
    Something like monk, or a polearm master. Get bloodlust elixir on them and … suddenly that polearm master is doing 4 regular attacks per turn, plus a bonus attack, and reaction attack if an enemy approaches. That’s potentially +12 damage in a single round from a +2 ring. And no silly “I do damage by provoking opportunity attacks” business. Same for a monk using flurry of blows (tavern brawler is too broken to be fun). But, there are a ton of ways to add unarmed damage in the game through gloves. Plus the early cinder quarterstaff that adds +1D4 fire to unarmed strikes (Druid grove or something).

  • @neojb1989
    @neojb1989 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    A really simple single-target damage combo that I really like Early On is Phalar Aluve + Magic Missle.
    Make Phalar Aluve shriek and it'll apply the bonus thunder damage to every hit of magic missle. So you're adding an extra 1d4 of thunder damage to each magic missle.
    You can pair it with those Belligerent Sky gloves and just spam reverberations on a single person as long as you have magic missle.
    If you can have someone else use Shriek for you, then you can add SpellSparkler for another handful of damage to your missles as well, plus the amulet that gives you 1 extra missle per cast of it.

    The lightning set, if you are a punching and throwing character, like a monk, you can combine the punching effects of the gloves with the tavern brawler feat. Your bonus is added to your attack roll and damage twice, not just once but twice. You will almost never miss if you need to punch or throw if you ever run out of spells or for whatever reason, using a spell in that moment would be detrimental.

    Dexterity checks are not dex saving throws or dex-based attack rolls. But they are every other d20 w/ dex. I.e. sleight of hand, stealth, acrobatics, & raw dex checks. However yeah the item & cats grace buff are both extremily powerful. Esp w/ greater invisibility up in combat, or critical mass of stealing bonus' to shoplift.

    Graceful Cloth also gives advantage on dexterity checks. Which mainly means lockpicking, pickpocketing and trap disarming. Same thing you would get from the thieves' gloves. If you are a monk, you can fully use the gloves that give lightning charges on unarmed attacks as well as melee weapon attacks. Since monks can use unarmed attacks as a bonus action. As long as the weapon you are using isn't twohanded heavy weapon that you are proficient with you get this action. Anything able to be used in one hand with a shield counts.

    Another ridiculous lightning combo is the Trident quest reward from which you grabbed the staff. Give that to a tiger animal heart barbarian. The bleeding cleave attack they get during rage will decimate everything because both the cleave and the bleed itself benefit from the lightning charge damage.

    I combined the first and second item combos to make a ranged reverb build. The Harold 2h xbow also can cast bane on hit and with the boots it’s super OP. With a strong investment in invis potions and bloodthirst elixir you can solo anything. I solo’d act II using this on normal easily. I used 6 Ranger 6 Rogue and used plenty of silence, many targets and transpose arrows.

The boots give lightning charges when you dash, and the armor will do lightning damage to a creature that hits you. I put those, along with the rest of this build (except I took the bow instead of the staff for the quest reward), on Astarion. Dash as a bonus action and charge him up.

I set up Reverberations for my spell casters and at level 6 I can either go tiger aspect for +5 to hit to bleeding enemies with great weapon fighter...or The Maim enemies that are bleeding,makeing 3 enemies per turn have movement. You can get both tiger aspect and Badger aspect when you hit 12...but for the extra chance to hit I'd take tigar at 6 with great weapon fighter. If you wanna be weird take one level of monk to get +2 to AC. I have 18 dex (cats grace chest) my +2 ASI in con for more hp and AC from barb unarmored defences and finally putting the reat into Wis for saves and that one level of monk. I dump Str due to the fact I have 20+potions of Hill giants strengths. With ring of protection, cape of defence and the gloves that add 2 Ac while not wearing armor...I have 24-25 Ac without a shield 💀 Oh and the part Ranger and Main spellscaster have Blessing of Blooooooor for advantage on Attack rolls agaisnt bleeding enemies.

      True, but this gives advantage to any attack, not just that one spell. This build is more for casters, but there's a great build that works with melee, an alternate armor and boots (I forget what they are). The armor causes lightning damage to any creature that hits you, and the boots give lightning charges when you dash. Put them on a rogue or monk that can dash as a bonus action, and now you've got a lightning-based melee fighter.

    I'm fairly sure that if you have an Eldritch Knight bind a weapon that triggers off of being bound you can then pass it to another character and it'll still have its effect.
    Just as an aside, the Hunter's Dagger is a reoccurring item from Roah in Act 1 (like the Thorn Blade from Dammon in Act 2) so you can buy as many as you want so long as you long res/level up characters.
    To get the Shapeshifter's Boon Ring (which is BiS for a skill monkey) you can slap Strange Ox in Act 1 with your Mage Hand while your party hides in the prison area, and then, once the Hand is dead, speak to the Ox with your Hand's controller. That will give you a trade screen where he wants you to give him coin to improve your relationship, but instead you can just buy his ring.

    • @Cyb3rM1nd
      @Cyb3rM1nd 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you bind a weapon and unequip it or hand it off it becomes unbound. So, nope. It is also better to kill Strange Ox in Act 2 because you get Hat of Fire Acuity. It's the only way to get the hat. You can also complete his quest in Act 3 to get the ring and he becomes an ally in the final stage - and he's a decent one - I prefer not to for RP reasons. He's a follower of an Evil God of Death, Cyric, and despite saying he just wants to live as an Ox, when appearing as an ally at the end he does mention he's been having fun murdering people (as in, innocent people not your enemies). He's an evil character.

    man I would really love it if the build crafting with items philosophy baldur's gate 3 uses was applied to to dnd proper. having items with effects that are designed to work together and make those effects better is awesome especially at mid to lower levels of play adding another layer of power fantasy at levels most dnd players play. (since most dnd games dont make it past like level 12.)

      @KnicKnac 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You just have to figure out the break points and usually not depend on items more class features or lineage traits. Rogue/Ranger for Gloomstalker plus favorite rogue subclass is not a bad combination to focus on those extra D6's and that D8 etc. If you are looking for build ideas there are YT channels out there.

Then there’s the aoe light domain spell Radiance of the Dawn and the higher level spell learned for free that does aoe radiant AND thunder damage being Destructive Wave. Warding flare is a nice though, especially with cloak of displacement and a 1 level sorc dip for shield spell and proficiency in con saving throws. Never get hit, never lose con, and dish out crazy aoe damage.

    I actually found that the lightning build is just as good if not better on a rogue, especially Astarion. My build of choice was thief rogue for the two bonus actions and moderately armored to be able to use shield and medium armor. You use speedy lightfeet boots which gives you 3 lightning charges if you dash, and with two bonus actions, you pretty much never have any reason not to. You use the Joltshooter, which Astarion has proficiency in being an elf. The Joltshooter gives you advantage on attacks against enemies wearing metal if you have lightning charges, making it incredibly easy to trigger sneak attack. You then use the jolty vest, which triggers dexterity saving throws against attackers while you have lightning charges, the lifebringer for temp hp if you have lightning charges, and the real sparky sparkswall for the lightning aura.

    • @MeRDied
      @MeRDied 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @keithwiechart7744 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@MeRDied yeah, but dipping into Ranger means you don’t get the feat at level 12 anyways. One feat isn’t that much, and a double bonus action dash that guarantees lightning charges each round, plus the advantage on metal enemies synergizes well with Sneak attacks. Astarion was invaluable during the iron throne for the dash lighting charge plus lightning aura shield combo. Ranger may be a good choice too, I wouldn’t know, but I’ve found good success with this combo as it stands right now.
