Shadowdark: So You Want to be a Priest?

[@brandonphansen]

These videos are great. I would love to see you do the Ranger and Bard. And the Cursed Scrolls classes too.

[@Living4Crits]

I’ve seen Ranger and Warlock in play so far, the former in only a one shot and the latter for 2 sessions before that PC croaked. Hoping over the next several months to get some more exposure

I'm playing an Acolyte Priest of Madeera and this was SO helpful! Thank you!!

[@Living4Crits]

@@SpootyCootie13 I’m glad it helped! Given how far back I recorded these I’m always a little nervous that I screwed something up and need to redo them

[@thereisn0m0re]

Really liked your discussion of a priest's attention to their god, and how that can impact rollplay.

[@Living4Crits]

Thank you!

I think a potential "build" for a priest could be a focus on hard hitting ranged attacks with a crossbow or smite spell, while either buffing or healing allies from the back rank. I think the ideal spell choices might be cure wounds, holy weapon, shield of faith and getting their hands on either a cleansing weapon or smite spell when they get access to tier 2 spells. Elves or humans most likely are the ancestery to pick. Great series so far!

[@Living4Crits]

That’s an awesome build, and I can see some Van Helsing vibes (like, from the movie with that auto crossbow!) with a Priest in the back ranks providing suppressing fire into oncoming monsters. Love it!

Now I want to play them all 😤

Hi

Hi

[@age-of-adventure]

Oh you only can’t cast your spell again if you roll a 1? I thought any failed roll means you can’t cast that spell again?

[@Living4Crits]

@@age-of-adventure if I said that I misspoke. If you fail you can’t cast again that day. If you roll a 1 you get disapproval.

[@age-of-adventure]

@@Living4Crits - thanks, just watching vids before my first SD game in a few days. I'm playing a Half-Orc Priest

[@Living4Crits]

@@age-of-adventure I hope you have a really amazing time!!! Good luck!!!!!!!
