@@XP_Goblin Might've missed the bit that "Triple Advantage" ain't real, RAW.

[@Vynalith]

@@justsomeguy9555 Yes and no, it's more like 2 and a half advantages with disciplined survivor. RAW disciplined survivor isn't technically advantage. It functions similarly, but doesn't use the keyword of "advantage" so it does stack. In the order of how it works, you get the one advantage from gnome cunning, rage, or danger sense depending on the save stat. If you save, cool good for you, you don't use disciplined survivor. But if you fail that advantage, THEN that triggers disciplined survivor giving you one last attempt. The effect says "when you make a saving throw and fail" and doesn't say anything about whether you had advantage or not. But from what I get from the wording, if you do spend that focus/ki point and re-roll, you have to use the new roll even if it's worse, and you don't get advantage on that new roll either. EDIT: I don't have the new book yet and I haven't found a free pdf scan online, so this could be incorrect. Fact check me if you do have it cause I am curious if this is true.

Actually, there's a way to get more HP with a diffrent race. But it requires using a planeshift book. Go human (Innistrad; Stensia), which gives you the racial ability "tough" which works exactly like the tough feat, but isn't the tough feat, thus it can stack with tough.

[@Froyorionpop]

Because of Tasha's cauldron of everything, you can play as a sidekick, a sidekick basically replaces your race with any cr 1/2 or lower creature, choose the stone giant statue for a starting hp of 195, and a con score of 20, it also gives poison, annoying psychic, and nonmagical non-adamantine weapon damage immunity, immutable form, and magic resistance. Sidekicks gain a hit dice upon every level up, this is based on the "race" so you get an additional d12+con every level to your hp, assuming it stays at a 20, that's 715hp with the tough feat, and you resist or are immune to every damage type. Edit: I forgot about temp hp and aid. Also, good video as usual, love your builds

My face when 20th level artificers can rock high AC, high hit points, and incredibly high saving throws. Artillerist artificers can also generate temporary hit points every round and do so more consistently than the twilight cleric.

[@andreikone6148]

I just did a tank character for a campaign and i think he works well. I am a lvl 10 armorer artificer with both my armor and shield infused with plus 2 AC. This (with a full plate) gets me an AC of 24. I also have a cloak of protection and plan on getting a ring as well on the future. That would bump me up to 26 AC. I know shield (from the githzerai race), intelect fortress, haste, and blur, which i cast depending on who im fighting. I also have flash of genius which alows me to add 5 to any check i make as a reaction and my armorer subclass allows me to gain 10 temporary hitpoints as a bonus action. And since im an armorer i dont need to use spell slots on offense, i just punch.

[@willwarren8519]

@@XP_Goblin just off the top of my head I would say that a tank is not only able to survive but able to CC or crowd control the enemies. So I would argue that the best tank would probably be a paladin source for multiclass. Definitely clockwork soul sorcerer you could probably pick your favorite paladin level 6. You get charisma towards saving throws to help that and shield from the sorcerer to bump your AC with plate armor. You could be a gnome to get advantage on. Saves against magic and sounds pretty good considering you can twin polymorph your enemies or your allies or twin haste to buff your allies and at higher levels you get access to one of the best crowd control spells in the game. Force wall sounds pretty darn good to me. Not to mention really good damage and a charisma character so you're just awesome

I like some armor of agathys Barbarian builds. Rune-carver Feat, 3 lvl Totembarb, and than Spellcaster. Super annoying to kill. And Armor of agatys doesnt even require concentration. Another very fun Build is the Barbarian stalker. Ancestral spirit-Barbarian5, Phantom Rogue15. Both spirit related-so flavour win. Gives enemy disadvantage and half dmg to every target other than me. But I stand in the Backrow sniping them, so good luck getting to me. Reckless attack also works great with Backstab, OR rage since the Enemy is always in range (ranged weapon) It just works really well actually.

[@Somber_Knight]

While this does look tanky...you can get better. Of course, using the strongest class in the game: artificer We go 20 levels for magic item master and soul of artifice, allowing us to attune to 6 items and gain +1 to all saving throws for each item, or +6 in total. We attune to the +2 ring of protection, the blackstaff, the robe of the archmagi, the sword of kas, the orrery of the wanderer, and the mask of the dragon queen If we presume the minor beneficial properties of +1 to AC, the shield of faith and haste spells, and a dex and cha of 20, we currently have 40 AC. And if we have greater invisibility cast on us, they have disadvantage to hit us too. We stand next to our paladin friend, who's Aura of Protection is +5. So our global saving throw bonus is 15 and we have 5 legendary resistances. We want to cast sanctuary on ourselves as a bonus action every turn (DC 21 with int 20) . We want to take the lucky feat. We want to use our reaction on absorb elements, granting immunity to acid, cold, fire, lightning. We also have resistance to thunder and poison. Stoneskin is also nonmagical b/p/s. We have aid, which we can cast at 5th level. If we have tough and 20 in con, rolling max hp, we have 320. This is what I call a tank.

[@Somber_Knight]

Or you can just play a zealot barbarian who perma rages, even surviving if a wizard disintegrates you because being a pile of dust does not specify that your rage ends.

[@jthompson7175]

I'm playing a Tortle bladesinger in one game with everything in Int, Con, and STR. Tavern Brawler feat and first level in Fighter for Con saves. AC is 17 naturally, but with a 20 int, I can take it up to 27 if I blade sing and cast shield. It's pretty fun being able to do things like grapple an enemy then cast Cloud of Daggers to hold them in it.

[@hillary1239]

Though i see a problem with the combination of barbarian and wizard. You either rage giving you several resistences or could cast the shield spell. The War magic wizard has the reaction for one attack or saving throw. And you never get high enough Ability scores to be able to get enough Constitution, Intelligence, Dexterity and Wisdom. Just rebuild it without any magic items. I just took ASI's and got a maximum of 12 Constituion, 20 dex, 18 Wisdom, 13 Intelligence, 8 cha, 8 strength. This Equals a AC of 19 (or 20 if you use Bladesinger instead). Due to the low Constitution you got a maximum of 226 HP. If you instead would go 2 Barbarian, 18 Monk you get a maximum of 268 HP, 20 AC and can still get Advantage on every saving throw other then Constitution and have resistences against every type other then force. Sure you dont have the reaction +2 AC and/or +4 saving throw nor the possibilty of using shield spell, but instead have the reaction to use a even better deflect energy against attacks at least. Another way would be to go a full lvl 20 Monk. You can get a AC 24, 260 HP and still have resistences against every type of damage except force. And in the last two cases you could lower the Constitution by 2 to get even better feats other then ASI's to be more useful. EDIT: And the magic items mentioned in the video also can be used in both other options increasing it in the same amount.

[@khzhak]

it's so much easier than that. use that build, but go Way of the Long Death monk, and before you get proficiency with all saving throws, you get the ability to spend a ki point for the same thing as relentless endurance. I had a character that was hit with over a thousand damage at level twelve, just a bunch of attacks of eighty to a hundred damage, and he was still standing.

Level 6 paladin has bonus to all saving throws equal to their charisma modifier.

[@TheWeirdlyenough]

The lvl 17 ability from the long death (2014) is upserd for tanks

[@Wagungus2]

I’m surprised you don’t mention the, in my experience, genuine absurdity of Moon Druid when it comes to tanking. As early as level two you can have an overall hp total in the triple digits with your wildshapes, and although you do have to contend with low AC, nothing else really contends with just the sheer number of hit points you have, especially considering that wild shape is a short rest ability. Multiclassing with Bear totem Barbarian has proven to be extremely effective for me, being able to soak up more damage then the rest of the party can combined and not even be all that worse for wear to show for it.

[@jacobyullman5005]

For the Bladesinger, instead of Ring of Protection, get a Badge of the Watch. It's essentially Bracers of Defense but better, giving you a +2 to your AC so long as you aren't using a shield (it's like Bracers of Defense that you can use with armor).

[@XP_Goblin]

That would also stack with bracers. Nice

[@italucenaz]

[@Venomtankmod]

I feel like the tankiest thing you can do is a level 20 tortle druid. Tough feat, Infinite wild shape plus true polymorph and many normal polymorphs. Go moon druid for bonus shifting. Tortle gives enough ac anyway that you won’t always be hit, and being able to just bonus action become a trex is crazy

@@XP_Goblin just rewatched, totally missed you mention that the shield stopped being used when you multiclassed bladesinging. whoops.

[@joxyver]

Yeah it seems people before this video never understood what it means to be a tank, it’s not just to divert attention from the enemy and take all the hits, and it’s not about being able to take all those hits. It’s about how good you can actually survive and largely avoid or reduce damage altogether. Having basically higher hit points than most high level monsters that aren’t legendary adversaries doesn’t mean anything when you are constantly getting hit. The only thing that could justify having so many hit points but no defense to make it mean anything is if you have a way to deal massive damage. However, that’s straight up impossible as a player unless you are playing as a boss character for whatever reason or you are cheating. Having a high AC and incredibly good to almost comical level amount of Saving throw modifiers is a much better way of taking the least amount of damage as possible as well as having a good amount of health to justify it, hell even having like low 200 to 210 hp is better than having like below 100, cause at some point you will some how fail those saving throws, get hit with a crit or the enemy/boss having some sort of effect or attack that will make you automatically take damage.

[@NobodyDungeons]

So, these are all flat means of defense. We aren’t even considering alternative means of damage prevention or absorption. For example Rogues are very good at avoiding damage thanks to cunning action dash plus the mobile feat allowing them to run in attack then duck behind full cover.

Then your choice of ac boosting item, ring of protection, defender (which you can proc with the hasted action), etc for at least +1 ac, and signature spell shield for constant 39+ AC (at this point Tiamat or Tarrasque would need to nat20 to hit) and you’ve still got 2 attunement slots open, and the option to action surge a 9th and 8th level slots. Other fun items to include is cloak of displacement (for disadv to hit, though many of these big bosses have true sight to ignore it), ring of evasion to get guaranteed saves, staff of power, or any dc boosting items.

Crawford has stated on twitter that nothing in the rage feature stops you from activating another rage, so you can essentially extend your rages indefinitely. Lv14s Rage Beyond Death let’s you keep fighting past 0hp, as so long as you get 1 hp back by the end of the rage you’re fine. Lv15’s Persistant Rage means it doesn’t end early unless you’re unconscious (and dropping to 0 doesn’t make you unconscious) your only real threats are magical sleep, anything that incapacitates you for 1 min or longer, or instant death effects like disintegrate. So let’s minimize those! If you start with an Elf you’re immune to sleep. Danger sense gives adv on dex saves (like disintegrate). Fanatical focus will allow you to reroll a failed save 1/rage (which can be refreshed every turn). Take resilient Wis for prof in Wis saves (giving you adv on dex, prof in con and Wis. The three major saves), and stack yourself with fun attunement slot items like Mantle of Spell resistance, And items to boost your attributes like Tome of Leadership and Wisdom. Add to this the barbarians already huge hp total, and GWM/PAM damage output, Relentless Rage, and huge saves means very few things will survive long enough to get you to a point where those few vulnerabilities can touch you.

You could get it to 42 if you went Warforged.

I honestly don't exactly know why this one is doing so well. The % of people who click on it is so much higher than normal

[@hamzamotara4304]

@@XP_Goblin most likely it's because your channel has existed for over a month, so your videos are getting recommended more due to the algorithm limiting visibility for some time.

The hell is triple advantage? You either have advantage or you don't. It doesn't stack unless you've got elven accuracy and that's only attack rolls.

It's just a term to mean you can roll 3 d20s

Unfortunately, the durability character still suffers from the fatal flaw all "tanks" in 5e experience... "Yeah, I'm just gonna attack this other guy who's way easier to hit." Within reason of course, hordes of zombies shouldn't have the mental capacity to know that hitting you is a fruitless endeavor but when it comes to more intelligent and observant foes...

[@XP_Goblin]

Yea. There are a few ways to give them disadvantage to hit on other players than you, I believe the new world tree barbarian has such a feature

[@akedus44]

@@XP_Goblin I hope it affects more than one creature. The old "taunt-like" effects like Cavalier or the Sentinel Feat just don't cut it for me.

horray

[@dominiricanish]

If you add the Gloves of Soul Catching to the Barbarian Monk you’re pretty much unstoppable. On a successful unarmed strike you give 2d10 force damage and you can heal the force damage amount. I played a beast barbarian 4/mercy monk 14 where I got to attack 5x a round. So when I hit on every attack I got back 10d10 healing a round.

[@justsomeguy9555]

No such thing as "Triple Advantage".

[@XP_Goblin]

It's a term that means rolling 3 d20s

[@OutcastSpartan]

Elven Accuracy is often called Double Advantage, because when you get Advantage you roll an extra D20 on top of your normal extra roll on Advantage.
