...There's something very unsettling about Karlach wearing the armor you get for killing Karlach...

[@TheSpudKing]

🤣 Hehe, thats a great observation of little easter egg 🍳

Great video! The early game is the hardest part and most build videos are focused on lvl 12 characters and items from the last 2 acts but this video is great for early game

[@chuckchan4127]

That Moonbeam build is hilarious!

[@Astral_Incarnate]

You can sort of combine 2 of these ideas. If you take heavy armor mastery with the adamantine splint armor on a bear heart barbarian you get resistance to all damage types except psychic which can be added through items, reduce all damage by 5 cause of the armor and feat, then the necklace that heals you for maximum health and the shattered flail and be nearly unkillable. And all you need is level 4 for that. Then you can uee the other 8 levels to get more damage. Maybe 8 levels of fighter to get access to manuevers and 3 extra feats. Maybe 8 levels of warlock or sorcerer for armor of agathys cast at a decently high level. Whatever you want really

[@henrya.2448]

The only problem is, you can not rage when you wearing heavy armor, so, yeah, no resistances for you.

[@Astral_Incarnate]

@@henrya.2448 this is incorrect, you have a permanent debuff while wearing heavy armor which removes the added damage, strength advantage, and resistances of rage which sounds like it shouldnt work except for one little detail. It does not get rid of the animal aspect effects including the bear heart meaning that you do keep all your resistances but you do still lose out on the bonus damage and strength advantage

[@henrya.2448]

@@Astral_Incarnate oh good to know

[@Astral_Incarnate]

@@henrya.2448 as far as im aware heavy armor doesnt remove any of the benefits of the subclass additions to rage, just the basic rage effects. So wild magic should still happen and you should still be able to use a bonus action frenzy attack. Heavy armor on a barbarian still maybe isnt optimal but fun to mess around with

What I don't get is how you get Act 2 items to lvl 2-4 characters.

[@hugopfeffer4175]

Cheat mods and Cheat Engine little bro

[@rosslehrer2271]

Maybe it’s just me… but like. You have these items that are late in act 1 or deep in act 2, and you are using them on a lvl 1 character… and saying it’s broken. Getting many of those items is not very easy or plausible early game, so maybe it’s me-but I fail to see how this makes the game easier early on when many of these items are very difficult to get unless you have a very hefty knowledge of the game to skip areas/fights…. And at that point, I mean, you probably don’t meet a build to break the game. I guess what I’m saying is, I enjoy the builds that you have that utilize items from act 1, but let’s not kid ourselves that we are going all the way to the crèche and then coming back and starting the game at level 2 with those items. Lmao.

[@Erase141]

Man this video is nuts! You have prety amazing build ideas, pelase make a part 2 with mid to lategame versions 🙏🏻

[@incho1319]

On the darkness stealth build: Devil's Sight does not give blind immunity, so being in darkness causes blindness. Eversight ring grants blindness immunity, but comes far later in the game than level 4. On the barbarian build, how can you rage when you wear an armor?

[@MobBarley-z3k]

Certain clothes aren't classified as armor but still give good buffs and bonuses

Now I'm no expert on moonbeam... But I was a druid main for multiple ppaythroughs and I'm pretty sure you can !ove the moonbeam without recasting it

[@todhold2673]

I tried out the "god build".. It has a few flaws. 1. Sanctuary doesnt protect you from AoE attacks so you can still take significant damage. 2. Both Sanctuary and Moonbeam are limited by spell slots so you get a few combat encounters before you have to rest. 3. Your concentration can still be broken causing you to cast Moonbeam again wasting an additional spell slot. 4. Once you run out of spells, you're screwed. You basically have to kill everything within the 10 turns you have Sanctuary which isn't always possible if there are too many enemies or Moonbeam ticks for low damage... Which is possible. That 11th turn, you're screwed..

[@lordzo7758]

Not to mention they are ennemy immune to radiant damage so...

[@GeekandGlory]

You can probably fix the spell slot issue by taking 2 levels into Sorc and then getting Shield of Aid at last light inn act 2 and using the infinite spell slot trick with it.

[@lordzo7758]

@@GeekandGlory how to do that plz ?

[@Avdimax]

I often have 22 to 25 AC without Risky Ring to pose disadvantage on me or Karmic dice to screw percentages, but I see my character gets hit like 70% of the time it frustrates me really; god damned enemies always roll extremely high it makes me mad when I check the rolls in combat log, damn you honor mode And on top of that, when I cast Sanctuary, pesky enemies always throw rocks at me breaking my concentration more often than it should happen, even when I have my first level dipped in Sorc or Fighter.

[@cannyvalley8522]

For me it's saving throws they excel at, enemies tend to roll like 17 or 19, I'm yet to land something like command in a fight when it matters.

[@Avdimax]

@@cannyvalley8522 I have yet to find a balanced way that works for me to play honor mode. When I use more than one character, it becomes easy; when I limit myself to solo, it becomes unpredictable and R&G 😭

[@Krzysztof-mg1ur]

Turn off karmic dice in settings

[@HiThereFaceHere]

Yeah the fact that dice rolls aren't actually random is the worst part of this game. I just did the Harpie fight 3 times on honor, and every time, their lure song worked on all 4 members of my party every single roll so i couldn't even attack. I could only watch and die all 3 TIMES.

[@jackal242]

10:15. What you failed to say here is making a weapon attack as a bonus action as a war cleric COST a War Priest Charge and you only get 3 War Priest Charges per Long Rest. So you can only do this -3- times per day. You left all that out

[@KALioness910]

Spore Druid + Cleric is my main build. Love it.

[@anthonymorris1360]

Karlach looks great in Wyll's robe...hang on wtf! :D. Excellent stuff Spud, many thanks. On another note, Dark Justicar with Mellow Fruit Dye is that? - oh my I'm in love! All the best.

[@1wing1]

No throw barbarian with returning pike? Its literally better than titanstring bow, especially early game. hitchance is better, damage is better, both items are sold by vendors as early as level 1. 95% hitchance, always, (or 100% as gnome), insane damage, utilize bonus action for enraged throw as extra attack as early as level 3.

[@TheSpudKing]

He is part of my next build 😁 so i just cutted him out

[@1wing1]

@@TheSpudKing make sure to select duergar for dwarven throw hammer in act three for single target, and nyrulna for AoE, 5barb3rogue is a solo carry in my honor run. lvl11 fighter starts to outclass it (especially if you did the checks to make illithid powers bonus actions, which as barbarian only requires a check of 5), then you can black hole into 3 attacks with nyrula, clear an entire fight before the enemy even gets a turn.

[@02091992able]

If you are a monk having high dexterity and Charisma with a bit in wisdom allows for a cool build with four elements monk and fire dragon sorcerer. Using Elf or Githyanki you get proficiency in longswords. So, if you are going to not use armor it gives you a boost to AC from the draconic ancestor and AC from dexterity, though if you like to use armor using Githyanki is good for that. As you get light and medium proficiencies. Either armor types work great as with light your full dexterity bonus is applied with medium being +2 or +3 max with the medium armor master feat to it but you loose out on unarmored defense which adds the wisdom modifier to AC. But I have seen with multiclassing monk with Sorcerer draconic ancestor you get the bonus from your dragon ancestor because you're not wearing armor but not your wisdom modifier from monk's unarmored defense. Don't know if that is intentional or a bug. With dexterous attacks from monk any proficient weapon that isn't a great weapon or has the two-handed tag will use Dexterity like a finesse weapon even if it doesn't have that tag. So, any longsword as long as you have proficiency it will use dexterity. Also allows you to be pretty good with a bow as well. But with the sorcerer you need to have at least 6 levels to get a boost to fire spell damage and able to gain resistance to fire damage. You also need at least 5 levels of monk for a bonus action. Which the spare level you could probably use wizard to allow you to learn spells. But this build will have to wait since I still yet have to complete the game. I have the nasty habit of restarting it.

[@srmatrong]

I was about to skip the sponsor bit, until you said it was you. I think this is the first time I’ve ever listened to a KZbinr and pressed the like button when they told me to.

[@nagydani825]

The only real gamebreaking character build i can come up with is a solo durge, who can kill an average enemy every turn, you just need to be the first to do damage, here is the stat: you sneak up to the nearest enemy( or have a high initiative to go first), kill it, with the durge cape you turn invisable for 2 turns, someone investigates, combat ends, you kill someone while invis repeat. This is really repetative and boring, but broken af. In quests where you are forced to have eomeone with you (like house of hope) i just have a few scrolls of sphere of invounrebility.

[@SpotterOtter]

For the last build add the stage fright illithid power. Its a second tier power (so two tadpoles is all you need) and if you inflict it on enemies (there's a wis saving throw involved) these are the effects Creature has disadvantage on Attack Rolls Creature takes 2d6Damage psychic damage each time they miss an Attack Roll Removed upon succeeding on an Attack Roll Now if they attack you they destroy themselves (add in the Resonance Stone from the Mind Flayer Colony under moonrise to give enemies vulnerability to psychic damage or use another method for more damage.) Oh and stage fright hits in a 20 ft aoe at 60 ft of range. You would have to try to keep "squishy" enough that enemies try to attack you, but man the damage.

[@sectix]

the effort you put into this is crazy man good job

[@TheSpudKing]

[@Bashkadaf]

War domain cleric use special charges to make attack with bonus action, so it's practically useless because at first level there is only three of them and you restore them at LONG REST.

Nice, I'm already running a lvl 4 Char (1 selunite cleric, 3 druid), I might try the first one :D

[@mixelplix]

My newest build is Bard Swords 2 weapon fighting and 5 levels in Warlock for 4 attacks per turn and using the darkness spell. Also if need be, eldritch blast having Repelling, Agonizing, and Devils Sight. Start with 16 Dex, and with 2 items you get a 20 dex with advantage on all dex base checks. Robe from trader in act 1.5 (The Graceful Cloth) and gloves from Gnome at Rock in act 3. Disguise as a Gnome or be a Gnome and you get +2 Dex with +1 sleight of Hand (Nimblefinger Gloves). using those 2 any race can do hiding as long as you can turn into a Gnome and pretty much always make your stealth check. You can if you want also increase you dex another +2 with a ASI so you can have 22 Dex in Act 3. You'll be able to use any weapon when bonded. So if you'd rather go with a 2-hander and strength pots you can or switch out the dex gloves for Str gloves and crush your enemies getting Cha and Strength to your weapon damage with the Greatsword off the undead dragon

[@Seba.-33]

You can use the Ring of Absolute Force for getting +1 thunder dmg per thunder dmg if u have the absolute mark.

[@Seba.-33]

For the Magic misiles build, it pairs with the phalar aluve shriek

[@daveyfunk]

The Cleric build pretty much works the same going the radiating orb route. There's a build on KZbin that also uses sentinel and so you essentially trap an enemy in your spirit guardians and force them to take damage each time. Have to admit though that I'm confused how this works late game with magical weapons and magic attacks. You can get the armour which gives permanent bladeward and offers 2 DR, but surely magic attacks still hit. I don't get how 2 DR is any benefit where that's concerened?

[@oatkungar]

Love all the crazy build idea, but it would be so much easier to follow if you use just the items that you can obtain at level 4 in the showcase.

That being said, some creatures that didn't have darkvision on normal, do have it in honor so keep this in mind. They do everything they can to make it so you cannot cheese while in honor.
