this cone spell casted while flying becomes a 60 ft sphere when it hits the ground 😎

This should've been an effect of Cold Spells like the Hazard: Burning. More damage types could have had Hazard riders. That'd make Elemental Builds a tad more rewarding, like failing a save from a damage type by 5 does so & so effect. Then Elemental Adept could've doubled down & make the riders just work, even on a success.

Eldritch Spear, Spell Sniper, & Distant Spell. Harder time to flee or approach with a 10-ft penalty & a massive range.

Always wondered, if running Armor of Agathys, dumping DEX would be easier to hit. AC 9= 10 + (-1 DEX Mod) OR Barbarian dip with 8 in DEX & CON for an AC 8 =(10 + (-1 DEX Mod) + (-1 CON Mod)). Like a Moon Druid + Barbarian with the Rune Carver background for Armor of Agathys. When Armor of Agathys THP is running low, Wildshape for 3x Druid Level. Then in Wildshape you could use the Beast's AC, Unarmored Defense (Barbarian), or Moon Druid's 13 + WIS (whichever is higher).

Love that an adventure book has a Spell. That's a massive milestone.

I've seen this Spell in action. It's so good. Been curious if Light Domain Channel Divinity can dispell this. While it can't be illuminated, it could be dispelled.

Love Spirit Shroud's variety of damage. Its Cold damage can be Transmuted (Divine Soul or MM Adept), giving it early access to Conjure Minor Elementals other damage types: fire, lightning, acid, & more exclusively: poison, thunder, or the original radiant, or necrotic.

This Spell is great with Armor of Agathys.

I miss Monks having access to Cone of Cold.

Ya gave me a perfect idea with this, reflavoring the entangle as an ability from For Honor. Happy Christmas

The problem with Investitures are, the immunities and offensive abilities granted to face something, is probably also immune or resistance to it. Sorcerers with Transmuted Metamgic can get around this, as well as Scribes Wizards. If I could fix these Investiture Spells, it would last all day (until you finish a long rest) & non-concentration. As well as give them a secondary damage option (Bludgeoning/Piercing/Slashing) or an attack version.

I don't think it's in the 2024 phb but primal savagery is a good pick , I would use that and thorn whip, reason being is it's non verbal spell in case you get caught in silence. It's not the best cantrip and it's really difficult to improve it but a somatic only attack spell is always good to have in your back pocket in my opinion

I like that you can use it with a Sling, specifically, with its lower normal range of 30-ft instead of hurling it 40-ft. Its so strange. Like maybe you can use it to attack?

Wall of Ice is strong. Bummer it is only on the Wizard's Spell list.

That explains the Elves in Santa's Workshop & Krampus. They're all fey

The two cantrips I'd pick up is: Druidcraft & Produce Flame. Transmuted Produce Flame --> Produce Snowball

Multiclass into Paladin means no heavy armor

So for this build u should just use a reach weapon so you can hit twice around. The thrown weapon thing will be good if u get w magic item that returns to u but u cant assume players will get that item. Since your doing mounted combatant, why not cast warding bond on you and your horse. Then u upcast aid on both you and your horse and this should result in your character being significantly more tanky. Other than that it’s a cool concept, but I hate save or suck builds and that’s just my opinion. I hate save or sucks bc once u get to mid/high tier of play monsters have legendary resistances and have high saving throws. I like to do things that don’t rely on a saving throw. That’s just me though. For the most part, I like the build and it’s cool. Also something to consider is the meta magic option that lets u change the dmg type of amor of Agathis for when u face enemies immune or resistance to cold dmg. Also since your heavily relying on save or sucks u really wanna cap your CHR instead of str. Ik for mounted combatant u have to boost either str, dex, or Wis but i would really focus everything else on chr. U can do warcaster to get to 18 CHR, and then +2 chr to get to 20.

As far as casting psionic spells with sorcery points, you could do that and still cast a bonus action spell, like Misty step, thus bypassing that rule.

Just a slight correction, channel. Divinity is 2 per long rest. And you only get one of them back on a short rest. Also, it only takes a bonus action to summon another pact weapon, not an action.

Ok, this was better than I expected. I really like your use of reflavouring. Never thought to do it with entangle. 3rd eye reopened

IS halfling immune to Javelin of Backbiting?

Great build! Thx! :D

It tickles my fancy for a Transmuted Thunderous/ Searing Smite for Cold.

ugliest sweater EVER! (jk... could've been uglier!)

I hope you guys enjoy the build! This video was super fun to make! What was your favorite part of the build?

I think CME is fine when cast at 4th level, but the 2d8 per level scaling is obviously insane

A little overshadowed? Conjure Minor elemental is just waiting to be banned by DM‘s or NURFED. It is way too powerful, especially in the hands of an optimizer.

Its good after telport or plainshift

No, warlocks can't use Repelling Blast or Agonizing Blast on Ray of Frost. Those invocations can only be used on a Warlock cantrip and Ray of Frost is not a Warlock cantrip.

Turning the ground into DT until the end of your next turn is nice. It can be life or death keeping enemies away

Hey there, not to be a downer but paladin smite specifically says that it is a bonus action triggered by a melee attack. I have been playing a steel defender artificer and playing at ranged and the new smite spells made me sad 😔

Definitely sending this to the party wizard
