The New DEADLIEST PUNCH in D&D

[@BlaineSimple]

*FAQ:* - Grave domain cleric apparently comes from the Xanathar's Guide book, which is honestly more concerning than if it came from the DMG. - The final damage is a bit under triple damage, not over. - Gloves of Soul Catching wouldn't work because you can't reasonably wear gloves and gauntlets at the same time. - Banishing Smite would indeed deal *4* more damage than Searing Smite. You can grab the spell using our bard's 'magical secrets' ability. - Aasimar is actually better than Half-Orc! They get a damage ability that scales off their level, dealing *4* more damage.

Oh! that's a good point. While he could use a 9th level spell slot to Searing smite with 9d6 damage, he only has one of those, which is already used on Absorb elements. Settling for a 8th level Searing Smite would make it 8d6, maxing out at 48. Whereas Banishing smite is 5d10, maxing out at 50, and that's only a 5th level slot

[@TaismoFanBoy]

I'm curious what the highest CONSISTENT damage dealable per strike (not necessarily unarmed) is. Anything that you could do every round the exact same way for like, over 10 rounds at least.

[@tomc.5704]

Hm...per strike....10 strikes over 10 turns... Abusing Paladin's Divine Smite for 5d8 might work, but it limits you to melee attacks and requires spell slots I favor a maxed out Rogue's sneak attack (10d6) with Oathbow (3d6, advantage on every attack) and Blood Fury Tattoo (4d6, exactly 10 charges). You could also pick up magic initiate for Hunter's Mark or Hex (1d6) You could load up on Arrows of Slaying (potential 6d10) With just that (and 20 dex) you've got advantage to hit and 18d6 + 6d10 + 5 damage. Average of 101 damage, max of 341 damage on a crit. You also still have your race, feats, subclass, and another attunement slot to play with.

[@tomc.5704]

But if you're just trying to cause sustained destruction, cast Gate to summon a Tarrasque or similar destructive force. That's our 9th level spell, no concentration cause we don't need to keep the gate open. Do literally whatever you want with the rest of your build.

[@CanisMythson]

If you wanna go a route that doesn't even involve magical weapons, go Swash Rogue 3/Blade Bard 15/Paladin 2. Dueling and Defense fighting styles. Take Shadow Blade as a magical secret, cast at 8th level for a basic weapon that does 5d8+dex on a hit, add 2d6 sneak attack and either 1d6 or 1d12 to it from Blade Flourish, and do defensive flourish so your AC goes up. Divine Smite adds additional 5d8 because you have a bajillion spell slots free. Then you have the Shield, Counterspell, and Absorb Elements spells on hold. You can't do consistent damage, if you are dead, so defense is something that can't be ignored. Assuming medium armor, shield, no feats, this guy can if you spend a Bardic Inspiriation on your slash and cast the Shield spell against something that inexplicably hits the 32, reach an AC of 37, or at minimum 26 if you rolled bad on the bardic. But the great thing is you can still go 27-32 without spending inspirations. Then counterspell to deal with nasty spells, absorb elements to tank energy attacks and boost your damage even further. Or you can swap Absorb Elements and instead take Steel Wind Strike for a better way to handle larger groups of enemies.

[@TaismoFanBoy]

@@CanisMythson You can't really maintain a flourish per round for 10+ rounds when you only get Charisma mod number of flourishes (they cost bardics). I was KINDA also trying to avoid smites since your particular build gives 16 spellcaster levels, which means your smites will only do 5d8 for 8 rounds, not 10+, then they start doing less and petering out. It takes 18 spellcaster levels to do it for 10 rounds exactly.

[@pink_parade2900]

I recently made a lvl 12 bugbear pact of the blade hexblade with a glaive. I have lifedrinker, thirsting blade and improved pact weapon. Great weapon master with 20 charisma means that I can have +10 to damage while still having +5 to attack rolls. Using hexblades curse for +4 damage meaning with great weapon mater that's +20 damage. I cast hold person for auto crit, attack twice per round for an average per round of 102. Plus if you need even more damage you can trigger eldritch smite. For quality of life I have my race and weapon for a reach of 15 feet and sentinel so no one can escape even if I'm out of spell slots.

[@braydentaylor8613]

Do you realize that the inflict wounds spell can be used because the hands count as weapons? This could add a few hundred more damage to the build.

[@qwell1170]

It seems you missed the unarmed fighting style from the fighter. It boosts your unarmed strikes to a d6, unless you have both hands free, which boosts it to a d8.

[@joshuahendershot196]

Another magic item that would make this build even stronger potentially as I'm not sure how many of these items are attunement but there's the Gloves of Soul Catching from Candlekeep Mysteries "Your Constitution score is 20 while you wear these gloves. This property of the gloves has no effect on you if your Constitution is already 20 or higher. After making a successful unarmed strike while wearing these gloves, you can use the gloves to deal an extra 2d10 force damage to the target(which would become 4d10 on a crit), and you regain a number of hit points equal to the force damage dealt. Alternatively, instead of regaining hit points in this way, you can choose to gain advantage on one attack roll, ability check, or saving throw you make before the end of your next turn."

Another good item to use for this could be crawler mucus. Just smear a dose on the outside of a glove or have small breakable pouches that you can crush and then touch them with. If they fail a Con save of 13 they become paralyzed. This allows you to make your attack at advantage and if it hits while you’re next to them it is an automatic critical hit. So for basically 200gp you can just guarantee critical hits (If they fail the Con save) for pretty much your entire turn. Which is crazy especially because it can last up to a minute if they keep failing the save at the end of their turns, but god help you if whatever you’re fighting lasts more than one round with this build.

The undead will give you 1d8 extra damage, and only lose 6 damage from hexblade. 40 total dice damage, goes x4 for 160, you lose 30*4+6=126, 160-126=34 more total damage.

I ran through the numbers and I have a calculation to enhance this build: Yeah those numbers are big I genuinely couldn't think of much beyond using a lucky die that likes high rolls or using the cursed d100.

Create a evil wizard that can only use 1 lightning spell with his ULNIMITED POWERRR

Do you have advice for making a true Psion in 5e D&D? I've done Abberrant mind Sorcerer with Psionic based spells and Great old one Warlock with psionic based Spells/invocations and i was wondering if you had a better build in mind.

[@cosmicblooper6264]

I'd be up for a math stream where you did the math for stuff like friends and the D100

[@finalfox6323]

Why don’t you also use spells via spell scrolls. Also would the feat great weapons master work for the gauntlets on the demon armor.

The wish spell: i’m bout’ to end this man’s whole career

[@Falcon-doing-doodles]

Pretty sure this wouldn't just kill bosses, it would also kill reality

[@StrangerDanger3279]

Ohhh now I wanna do this build and just punch nothing and see what my DM makes my punch do when I'm just punching not actually hitting anything

[@finth0078]

Bruh I'm literally making almost this exact build, just not optimized fully for lots of damage. Bard 13/Paladin 7.

[@jeanzyx1707]

our magician made +5'000 damage by turning into a giant beluga, jumping from a flying castle and crushing on top of a fire-giant

[@jeanzyx1707]

in the same way, you could create a giant tower of adamantium and make her crush into an ennemi by heating the right spot with one punch

[@Aykrai]

You put Kaede's shield in the pile, Nice.

this video : just do this the person who actually did this: I SEE NO GOD UP HERE OTHER THAN *M E*

[@PaladinGear15]

I can't remember the details really, but there used to be a subclass called like "the plague wizard" or something along those lines, where as soon as you took a level in it, you no longer suffered any negative effects from disease, and also there was a disease you could contract when something enrages you for a long period of time which would cause your con modifier to decrease like -2 every day, and your strength modifier increases by 2 each day, and the disease couldn't be cured until after whatever caused your character to become enraged has been resolved (such as killing the person who enraged you) so as a plague wizard you could get the disease and simply never cure it, increasing your strength by +2 stacking over and over and over infinitely, never dying from con loss because you suffer no penalties for being sick, so give it like a year and your character would become strong enough to tear off the tarrasque's head in one round as your strength has risen to 740.

[@eyesoftomorrow6647]

You could add the death touch effect to turn the basic unarmed strike into 1d10 necrotic but I am not sure if that counts as a boon or not

[@dogsareawesome6663]

*One punch man theme starts BLASTING*

[@Ikventum]

I had just rewatched the original

[@Nili_42]

You could theoretically raise your str. Stat even more by reading more books. So infinite damage here we go.

[@Shattered_Entertainment]

The issue here is setup good luck with the multiple turn setup

[@wraitheory]

LMFAO BBEG defeated by the time your character's ready to unleash. In frustration, punches the ground for a meteor styled TPK.
