D&D 5e - Godlike Envy

[Blu3]

I'll take some healing spells

 

[transcendantviewer]

Don't waste your spell slots on healing unless you really need to. I've got a really high base HP and a lot of damage potential. Just worry about debuffing and controlling enemies and everybody will be fine. You don't need to heal when there's no damage, right?

 

[Orikanyo]

Wise words. 


Being clever in positioning and play can work wonders. 


Once came upon a room in a giant ruin, filed to the brim with kuatoa, ugly fishie things, annoying little sticky shits. No really, sticky is a annoying point of them. 


This room, we opened large door upon them all chanting to a a cleric riding a large toad in the back. They noticed us, DM expected us to charge and ensue shenanigans. 


What did I do as the front man? 


Close the door and hold it.


Gave us time to set up and do whatever we need, plus funneled the smaller baddies into a workable point.


Simple shield wall tactics won the day. 


Also fireballs helped, really helped.

 

[transcendantviewer]

Yeah, we've had similar situations. We were bum-rushed by a horde of gnolls. I was the party cleric, so one Spirit Guardians spell killed about 65% of them. Only two of them survived the initial damage to actually attack me on their turn, and Sanctuary quickly put an end to that. To this day - we're level 10 - and Spirit guardians is the most versatile spell I own.

 

[Orikanyo]

Lovely how low level spells can stay relevant, just by increasing the spell's slot.


Cantrips as well, for an evoker, can be deadly.

 

[transcendantviewer]

I'm an Arcane Domain Cleric that spent a feat to learn Shillelagh, so when I hit somebody, they feel it. 1d8+6 (+2 Club) + 1d8+4 Thunder damage on every swing thanks to Booming Blade. Turns into free crowd control and massive damage.

 

[Orikanyo]

Booming blade and greenfire blade. 


Lovely cantrips for a spell and sword warrior.


Also easy to get!

 

[transcendantviewer]

Indeed. I took Greenflame Blade as well. I also learned Goodberry with the same feat, so food is never going to be a problem on that character.

 

[Cashdash25]

This still open?

 

[transcendantviewer]

I won't say no, but there's already a lot of people.

 

[Cynthiera]

Looks like fun, I would love to hop aboard.

 

[transcendantviewer]

I'll have to talk with the DM, but we've already got a pretty full party.

 

[transcendantviewer]

Alright, you two can join, but you have to come up with a reason to be at an Orc camp. My best idea is imprisonment. How you're imprisoned is up to you, but you're largely devoid of your gear. I'm available for PM if you have questions. @Cynthiera @Cashdash25

 

[Cashdash25]

Okay, what classes have we got already?


I see what I'd assume are a pair of fighters and a bard, not sure on the others.

 

[transcendantviewer]

We've actually got a Fighter, a Paladin, a Bard, and a Barbarian. I can't remember the others at the moment. No fighting has started yet, so nothing's really going on.

 

[Blu3]

We also got a sorcerer 

 

[transcendantviewer]

Oh yeah, the Drow is a sorcerer, right?

 

[Cashdash25]

Hmmm, seem to have all the bases covered. Guess I'll go Druid.

 

[DemetrioMachete]

It wont be hard to return your desired equipment to you, after youre introduced. Orcs love them some weapons.

 

[Cashdash25]

Am I going crazy or did this entire thread just disappear for most of yesterday?

 

[transcendantviewer]

DM set it to Private and apparently fixed it.

 

[Cashdash25]

Ah well, that would explain it.

 

[transcendantviewer]

@Cashdash25 @Cynthiera I make no promises that you two will get to do much until later, but we should be able to squeeze the two of you into the party.

 

[Cynthiera]

I've got an idea about why character will be at the Orc camp. I'll be a Cleric.

 

[transcendantviewer]

Alright, can you post a copy of your character sheet?
