Hey! Guess what. You're Awesome and thanks for watching. I promise this is the best DND tutorial based on a 30 year old Jeff Foxworthy joke you'll ever see. Stick around for more and vote in the comments for which subclass you'd like to next.
What? Why are you looking at me? Just because that building exploded with the force of 5mega tons does not mean I did it! Trust me bro... I didn't for real...
Ok I did it.

Blud forgot the best flavor infusion for artillerist: Repeating Shot, the definition of "I have 54 more rounds in this 4-round magazine"

[@FarothFuin]

Me playing fallout 76 with my western revolver with quad legendary effect: 24 shots on the 6 bullet barrel

[@beanbeanson9356]

Hate to be that guy but... repeating shot is absolutely wasted on artillerists. You don't get multi attack and all your attacks are spell attacks, not weapon attacks. The main advantage of repeating shot is that it lets you ignore the loading property of crossbows or firearms. Doesn't do anything for spell attacks tho. Enhanced arcane focus is the infusion you want to get for this subclass. Artillerist is a spell slinging subclass, despite what the name suggests.

[@FarothFuin]

@@beanbeanson9356 hate to be that guy that reminds you that the infusions dont need to be for you, you can mke the repeating crossbow and handle it to the fighter, now he have a magic-damage machinegun Is a group game, after all

15lvl artificer, 5lvl wizard for Tidal Wave

[@charrleschervanik3632]

Had a new player play an artilerist artificer as their first character. A preface, artificer is the "make everything a nail when you have a hammer" Bandits were in a room. There was a Guy was in a straight line behind the door. Players knew he was in there. I'm a rule of cool dm. Cue artilerist "I mount my arti cannon right in front of the door, and fire at the door. Im trying to hit someone with the door, so Im going to use the force damage setting" "Roll a d6 for me. On a 1 to 3 the door splinters, on a 4 to 6 the door flies off the hinges and possibly hits the guy behind it." He rolled a 6. Proceeded to send a heavy oak door careening at the poor sad sack of crap behind it. I gave the bandit a dex save which he failed with like. A 3. I let it be an insta kill just to see how he would describe it. All he said Was "Knock Knock MoFucka." I got to describe how a door could theoretically split someone in twain.

[@joaodias8382]

Damn you're a cool dm

Have you seen the Mythbusters power sled where they atomized the car? The bandit is the car, the door is the Mach speed sled.

[@LucanVaris]

Alchemist: "I like to cook."

[@InquisitorThomas]

A point if your DM doesn’t allow you to play an artillerist because it doesn’t fit their world: An artillerist is essentially just a specialized Wand crafter, the game has magic items like wands of fireball or magic missile then an artillerist can fit.

[@rcschmidt668]

“We just brought an RPG to our RPG.” Poetry, sheer poetry! 😂

[@KnicKnac]

Artillerist is Mister Torgue. EXPLOSIONS? They'd make a gun that shoots exploding swords. Sword-spolsion I give my party the infusions as an armorer. I'm playing a goblin artificer

[@bthsr7113]

Tendency to make chemical projectile propellant aside, Artificer is a class built around creating and using magic items. They absolutely fit into D&D. And if you're going to point at intricate mechanisms as too advanced, I'm going to point to high level dungeon traps and even massive sprawling mechanisms like the interlocking rotating room puzzles in Tomb of Annihilation. D&D has magical airships, animated armors, biopunk starships, and more. Artificers belong.

[@Cassapphic]

Like some people do make homebrew settings that are more low fantasy and aritificer would break the tone, but online discourse acts like this is way more common than it is, while most games aren't quite xenoblade chronicles or final fantasy, they are closer to that than early medieval history, we had guns in the renaissamce artificer (and guns) fit.

[@NicoleTheDodo]

Granted I haven't played DnD a lot so don't know much, but I'm just thinking that at least in BG3 they have bombs that can be thrown and barrels of not quite gunpowder, (granted I don't know if that was just for the game or if it's in DnD too) but I my head that should make at least rudimentary firearms possible

[@Telleryn]

Absolutely, the subclass may refer to cannons and arcane firearms but the cannon is just a better version of the Tiny Servant spell with the summon having some effects just slightly better than cantrips and the Arcane Firearm is just a fancy wand, literally just a class-specific a spellcasting focus, it can't fire projectiles

[@MrAbelbaba]

@@Cassapphic Even in low fantasy guns should be allowed at some point. In real history guns and plate armour shared the battlefield for a few hundred years.

[@Chucklebot_]

Quick tip about Spell Storing item: An Artillerist can do the following with this feature because Artificers can make any item that can be used as an arcane focus a spell storing item. Why this matters is because ANY infused item in an Artificer's hands is an Arcane Focus. Because of this rule, the following options are possible: Improved arcane focus of scorching ray/ shatter. Enjoy your new ray gun/ grenade launcher! Cloak of elvenkind with invisibility: You now have an invisibility cloak! Boots of elvenkind with invisibility: Click your heels and turn invisible with the benefit of having muffled footsteps! Homunculus servant with scorching ray/ shatter/ Thunderwave: Enjoy your own personal attack drone that can fire powerful attack spells on your bonus action! Bag of holding with catapult: Launch your stored items out with impressive force! Homunculus servant of cure wounds: MEDIC! Homunculus servant of Vortex Warp: Pocket Teleporter! Arcane focus of heat metal: Probably the best debuff spell in the game. Try it out! This becomes even more fun if your DM allows you to use extra charges to upcast. Either way, have fun with this info fellow gremlins! P.s.( Make LOTS of wands of magic missiles for your party. They are only uncommon, and are therefore easy for an Artificer to make. Keep in mind that your homunculus servant may be able to use these wands as well. Javelins of lightning are also uncommon. Allow your party fighter to cosplay as Zeus!)

[@Comicsluvr]

Our party is such that everyone can use Javelins so my Battle Smith made the Jav of Lightning, one per party member. We caught an enemy horde in a narrow canyon and their boss laughed as we readied our javelins. Smoked like 80% of them round 1!

[@Exaldear]

I'm just picturing loading magic missile wants like shotgun slugs into your wooden carved boomstick.

[@NordsternLP]

“Artillery adds dignity to what would otherwise be an ugly brawl”

[@FarothFuin]

How to fit artificer into medieval setting? Say is a magical blacksmith, you didnt use modern weapons, you use magical dust that goes boom, just like wizard make fireballs and have a staff that do it, you have a stick that do the same

[@toccik_MX]

who said I need gunpowder to make a rifle *laughs in plasma rifle and laser rifle*

[@voicetest6019]

Level 12 Artillerist Artificer: Infusions: • Boots of Flight - (basically, as much flight as you need in short bursts, because if you use it for its minimum duration 1 minute intervals, you're dashing 600ft per use, and get between 120 and 240 uses a day.) • Cloak of Protection - +1 AC, +1 all saving throws • Spell Refueling Ring. - Restore up to one 3rd level slot per day. • Homonculus - (Flying Small Creature) Holding a rock as the spell storing item with 8-10 uses of Invisibility. The Homonculus has 30ft fly speed and moves on its own, and automatically takes the dodge action. If you see a fight coming, pop the cannon and order the homonculus to pick up the cannon(free item interaction) and use the spell storing item to go invisible, then fly up into the sky. Items of importance: • Staff of Adornment - Stores three items in its tip. Could do better with the Artificer exclusive Multi-tool with +1, but that doesn't technically work with arcane firearm, but this way I can throw a potion or magical tinkering item(s) in the tip of the staff until I need it. • +1 Half-Plate • Alchemy Jug: This used to be an infusion, but it proved so much fun to the party that the DM added a side quest for us to get one. Congrats, your eldritch cannon is now invisible and has a 30 ft fly speed *that won't be broken when the cannon attacks,* since the invisibility spell is on the *homonculus* not the eldritch cannon. Also the Homonculus can move for free and just takes the dodge action unless it needs to cast invisibility again.

I can’t think of a better subclass for the Izzet League of Ravnica. In fact, All artificer subclasses are perfect for this Guild.

[@JaeSM97]

I'm not sure which sounds more fun; roving sentry guns that blast your enemies while you sit back and relax- or having them mounted on your shoulders so you can blast them with a shoulder cannon as you run around like a mad-man.

[@jonathanrich9281]

Superior option is clearly having two shoulder-mounted cannons and the Winged Boots, but using thrusters instead of wings. And then you’ve got your Arcane Firearm in your hand for firing spells. Grab a single level in Wizard for Magic Missile and now you’ve got blasts for days.

[@rcschmidt668]

Unless they have full cover. Then send one left, one right, and you go up the middle. 😂

[@andrewdowns3673]

One thing that'd allow a DM to permit the Artillerist is to just reflavor the Eldritch cannon as a wizards wand. Cause I mean heck, Artificers at their core are just magic item crafters and even in a high fantasy setting someone's gotta be making those wizard wands.

[@Wildgamer-hs9xt]

[@mujicama]

I play a lvl 6 Forest Gnome Artillerist and I LOVE IT! My dude renders the fat from animal products to fuel his fire-based attacks. He's always walking around with pocket bacon and once created a bomb using a whole roasted pig.😂

[@alexlathrop1462]

I added the Artillerist Artificer to a Storm Herald Barbarian Tortle and it was AWESOME!!!! The fact that I got to add my Con Mod to my base 17AC, I was already rocking with some amazing AC that no one could touch me, and if they ever did, I could cheese them with Shield to make it a miss. But I would ABUSE the cannon when fighting up close~!!!! I flavored it to which it was riding on my back, over my shoulder like a Blastoise to fire off the blasts till I got up close and personal. Then swap it for the Flamethrower for all the extra damage as I rage and destroy them with my Maul. But the Protector was truly amazing cause of the d8+INT Temp HP. At max, I'd have 11, but while raging that was practically 22, meaning I would be needing a lot of hits or getting some major damage on their hits to break that, only for it to return the next Bonus Action~. DM had to have the foes actually attack the cannon, or try to, before they got to me. And I made sure to make that *VERY* hard for them to do so

[@3p1c_Mustache]

just want to point out.. none of an artillerist's abilites require gunpowder, or an actual gun. you could flare your arcane casting focus to be gun or crossbow shaped, and you still have a gun slinger without actually needing to implement firearms. It's d&d. It's powered by imagination and descriptive speech

[@tom23421]

I thought that was inplied. What do the rules say exactly?

[@PaintballaJkilla]

@@tom23421 the lvl 9 feature only includes the damage on the turrets, not the healing. Every eldritch cannon you create is more destructive: -The cannon’s damage rolls all increase by 1d8. -As an action, you can command the cannon to detonate if you are within 60 feet of it. Doing so destroys the cannon and forces each creature within 20 feet of it to make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC, taking 3d8 force damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful one.

My problem with artificer is the fact that people cannot imagine it as anything else other than a steampunk mad scientist. It just gets exacerbating after a while because people are always trying draw inspiration from steampunk when they could draw inspiration from more High fantasy like a blacksmith forges magical items, a painter who mixes magic into his paint to give it different effects, or any form of Craftsman who carves runes into their crafts to give them life.

If y’all don’t think firearms and fantasy don’t mesh you are objectively wrong. Firstly there were guns in the late medieval period, very primitive but guns nonetheless. Secondly there is an entire sub genre called flintlock fantasy which is just sick if you haven’t checked it out yet

right, just play a gun like a crossbow. easy

[@catboxvideo]

the best argument for allowing firearms in the setting is that gun powder (10th century) predates rapiers (15th century) by almost 500 years, also in a setting with alchemists you can not tell me that one did not accidentally make a propellent and that another person figured out how to weaponize it and ... and .. etc etc . just my two f's
