You can play as ROCK LEE from Naruto | Dungeons & Dragons

[@Amia_the_Smol]

All things considered, going all-in on a single class is very much fitting for a character who dedicated his entire life to mastering a single style of combat.

[@galensturupcomeau1242]

I was about to make a drunken master. Great timing

[@AtelierGod]

Yeah I’ve seen a build for him before from Dragonfly let’s see how they differ.

[@benjaminwatkins429]

Found you from a short. Well thought out!

[@dndbuilds]

Thanks!!!

[@brandonhughes179]

I was bummed when I discovered that channels like this and Tulok the Barbarian existed, cause a while back I had the idea to do the same thing on KZbin. And lo and behold, others beat me to it🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@dndbuilds]

Believe me when I say a channel like this is a lot more than you might expect. The build, and D&D side is plenty fun, but making the video is the hard part. When it comes to hunting down the clips, avoiding copyright issues, sound editing, equipment setup, etc. The first video I made (Batman) took me about a week of straight editing, dealing with copyright, and the video still didn't turn out to be the best quality. I'm much faster at getting things out now, but it's definitely a labor of love. Even Tulok came out and said he's trying to get away from doing these kinds of videos. I still love doing them, but it would definitely be a bit easier to have a channel where I wasn't constantly clip hunting lol.

[@pedrogarcia8706]

the fact that there are multiple channels that do it is enough evidence that you should do it anyway. There's clearly an audience for it. Even if two different channels do the same character, there's no guarantee that they'll end up the same, but you can also find tons of characters that havne't been done yet.

[@ULTIMATZEKROM]

Definitely one of my favorite Naruto Characters, even if the gimmick in mind with his creation leads to some...not so great questions about the series.

[@fabienchamberland4791]

What do you mean?

[@ULTIMATZEKROM]

@@fabienchamberland4791 Simple: How did he graduate and yet Naruto struggled to? What I mean is that in order to pass the academy test, one must be able to perform three jutsu: Clone, Replacement, and Transformation. This is confirmed in the first episode. Through Flashbacks, it seems like Naruto had Replacement and Transformation down during those days (not perfectly, but not too terribly either), yet failed multiple times because he could not perform the Clone Jutsu. I bring this up because they make it a point to drill into our heads that Rock Lee LITERALLY has no ability to perform Ninjutsu or Genjutsu. None. meaning he could perform none of the required jutsu needed to graduate. He didn't have the chakra reserves. Remember what I said about Naruto. He failed multiple times, because he was unable to pull off the regular clone jutsu (probably due to his massive chakra reserves due to being an Uzumaki and a Jinchuriki, along with bad chakra control. His massive chakra reserves are why he's able to not only use Shadow Clones in Combat, but able to make armies of them). If Naruto was unable to pass 3 times because of being unable to do the Clone jutsu, then you would expect someone who was unable to do any of them, such as Lee, would also be unable to pass. Yet he was able to seemingly pass the first time, albiet with the dead last label, without the hoops Naruto had to in order to graduate (you know, exposing a traitor (Mizuki) in their midst and preventing a different traitor (Orochimaru, probably) from obtaining Konoha's secrets). Just feels like another way Naruto was screwed over by those who were supposed to look after him. One could make the argument that there was a special test for Lee so he could graduate, but that makes me wonder why they would do that for someone who (seemingly) had so little potential for a shinobi (yes, I know he became awesome, but he didn't until he started training with Gai), yet Naruto, quite literally Konoha's most valuable war asset due to his status as a Jinchuriki, did not get something of that nature.

[@fabienchamberland4791]

@@ULTIMATZEKROM Ah, I see. Well it does make sense a bit. Its like asking a fish and a human to climb a tree. The human is gonna have some trouble but they will succeed at some point. Meanwhile that singular fish, while it can do things the human can't, will never be able to climb a tree. Even tho it tries, its not a lack of skill or drive, its your own body politely asking you to go f*ck yourself.

That was awesome. I got lost watching what he was doing on the screen and had to go back a few times to hear what you said haha, it was great! I was wondering if you had any ideas on how to make Ryu from street fighter that could cover his Tatsumaki Senpukyaku, Hadouken, and The Satsui no Hadō while also making him have a high strength so he's as physically strong as he looks?

[@dndbuilds]

I did make Ryu, but didn't go with strength, you could tweak a few things on the build I did to make it work, but it might be difficult with so many stats

Please please do a Krillin build!! I definitely want to try a Monk Krillin build for BG3!

[@BvLee]

Don't know if you're interested or considered this, but I think it would be a cool idea to do a miniseries of builds in baldur's gate 3. If anything, converting some existing builds on your channel to BG3 would also work too. I'm sure a lot of people would appreciate something like that since it's pretty popular rn

[@Zendrist-8128]

This was another well done build. I really enjoyed it. Suggestions: Udyr from League of Legends and/or Ronan the Accuser from Guardians of the Galaxy

Please do Menou from Virgin Road or Carol from Symphogear next.

[@benry007]

I know it wouldn't really work but having him being a Beserker Barbarian that gets levels of Exhaustion wpuld have been fitting. Maybe a Beserker with the unarmed fighting style. Perhaps a battlemaster dip?

So, are we getting Animetal rabbits?

[@aria4909]

I have a few qualms about this build. Some of the gates don’t feel strong enough, they seem way too weak for how they are shown in Naruto. Also I think Lee fits better into the open hand subclass much better as he is no drunken master it’s just a buff which he used in one fight. If I were to try this I would prob pick 2 fighter levels first or fairly early on since action surge can be any gate regardless of when it’s selected. I would also pick up at least 2 barbarian levels as rage is more fitting for the gates as it’s “anti magic”. Also the inability to concentrate can be flavored as he’s in too much pain which is nice. Now onto the gates 1st Gate: Open Hand Push(Req. Flurry of Blows) 2nd Gate: Second Wind 3rd/4th Gate: Rage + Reckless Attack 5th Gate: Action Surge 6th Gate: Storm Herald(Desert) for a fiery aura plus rage bonus is like +8 Damage a turn to a single enemy plus all the d6s you’ll be rolling. 7th Gate: Fire Rune(Fire theme isnt important if you want you can switch to cloud and make it your 6th instead of Storm Herald) this restrains the target and deals an additional 2d6 fire dmg every turn.(Also this subclass doubles your unarmed dmg) 8th Gate: This is pretty hard but with the crusher feat, half orc race and maybe sneak attack if you really want to hit that death kick(3 lvl rogue dip for assasinate) you can deal 14d6 + 3 with a crit on a surprised foe. Plus all your subsequent attacks now have advantage. This full build is online by lvl 14. If you want the recommended level progression and stats just comment 🥷.

[@aria4909]

Also all your abilities are restored during a short rest except rage but you get 2 a day.

Hi, I'm new to the game D&D. I chose to be a Celtic and I'm now choosing my subclass but I'm having a bit of trouble finding one that I want to play as deu to my three requirements. My three requirements are 1.Pure offensive like the berserker class, 2 . Allowing me to wear light or heavy armor, and 3. Allowing me to use weaponry do you know of a Celtic subclass that fits my three requirements or a subclass that is similar to it.

[@Rakkun_Streak]

I mean, the War Cleric sounds like your deal. No Cleric Subclass has explosive Physical Power because they are a Caster Class, but... They allow you Heavy Armor and Weapons, and their Kit and Abilities are more focused to Physical Prowess and Damage. Another more alternative would be an Order Domain Cleric, but that doesn't fit that much into Explosive Physical Power, but their abilities allow you to help your Melee Partners as well as yourself into better positions in combat.

[@tyyoumans-cz6dy]

@@Rakkun_Streak I've decided that the ceric class doesn't fit with how I want to play. I'm taking the advice of everyone I talked to and I'm stuck between the barbarian and berserker in your opinion which one is the better choice

@@tyyoumans-cz6dy Yeah, that didn't sound like something you would've enjoyed. Berserker is a Subclass (like a Specialization of the Barbarian Class), it may be fun, however, Berserker is very famous for being one of the most punishing and disappointing Barbarian Subclasses at higher levels.
