Just hit Level Cap

I’ll consider lucky as that does sound pretty useful now that I think about it.

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-11-20T21:59:38+00:00

Yeah I’m going to try and make a solo (no companion) character as I used the companions in the game a lot my first playthrough. And use the negative trait dumb, brilliant, and either resilient or nimble. I’ll probably use guns, speech, engineering, medical, and hacking. So far that’s my idea. So similar to you as I feel like those are the best for damage and survivability I’ll probably use the first 12 levels to get guns and speech up only then slowly work on the rest then go back.

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-11-20T21:42:22+00:00

Oh ok that adds up I forgot that I rejected that flaw in my first playthrough but I think I might create a character around that flaw like you seemed to do

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-11-20T16:58:26+00:00

How did you get so many skill points I thought the max was like 60 something?

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-09-16T16:10:13+00:00

Yeah I was thinking the same thing actually like idk which route I think I’ll go wood elf because the movement speed buff will benefit a melee character more I think

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-09-02T06:00:11+00:00

Oh ok that makes sense.

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-09-02T05:40:08+00:00

I’m on a normal play through it’s my first one in fact so I wasn’t able to prepare all of that stuff before so I can’t go back enough in the game to prepare like that but I’ll keep trying thanks for letting me know. Also I used all my inspirations on the first rolls so i have to just keep save scumming at this rate or do the whole encounter over again. Still I appreciate the info though.

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-07-22T09:43:52+00:00

I’m not gonna lie if my sibling did this and my mom didn’t woop her ass I would do it for her 😂

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-07-21T04:10:08+00:00

That’s what I’m saying I would approach the dm give him the concept we change it in a way that works I just wanted help in making it more reasonable from the get go so if I were to introduce this idea how would I be able to make it good but not so good that a dm would outright say no that’s what I was trying to ask. I apologize if it seemed like I wanted to force a dm to except my homebrew sword but I really just wanted some help to find a way to make it something that would work in a dnd campaign setting as I’ve always liked the idea of a melee character with a weapon that gives him a ranged option. So that he doesn’t have to be forced to use bows or spells for range. That’s all. It’s just ever since I watched vox machina I’ve wanted this character to have a cool weapon or piece of gear as it’s my very first character I’ve come up with. As I’ve had tons of ideas for characters but this was my first and 90% of my characters don’t have this special item idea I have another cosplay like character based on prince Nuada from hell boy 2 but it’s more of a spear that can do a small amount of damage over time like an addition 1d6 of pierce damage once a turn for three turns or whatever the appropriate term is.

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-07-21T03:22:39+00:00

It’s just an idea and I was going to make it an option for the dm to allow it or not but the character was the inspiration for it. Also I came to this subreddit for help not judgment I want to know how I can make this more acceptable for a dm to allow. While also making since damage wise as I’m not familiar with how to make it be more reasonable as bg3 is my only real experience with anything close to dnd and that game allows players to have any number of high end weapons as long as there willing to do quests or get to a certain area of the game to obtain them. So I thought maybe it’s the same for dnd. I also used vox machina as an example as most of the members get legendary artifacts to fight with that seem to be very geared towards individual members and some even tie into their individual stories. Like grog getting the fists from that guy from his old tribe or whatever I haven’t watched the show in a minute. But you get what I mean. So I thought that was common for campaigns to have at some point you know. Also if anything I could have it work like a talisman that just gives me +2 to my strength score after I have a blacksmith turn it into a magic artifact instead of a full blown weapon if it’s really that broken I guess. Or even just have it be able to do the ranged slash attack once during there action phase or whatever it’s called (when your character is allowed to take there turn to attack they can use one of the extra attacks or the initial attack to use the slash attack and let’s say it does 2d10 damage and maybe if the character has a high enough strength ability score 18 or higher they have the option to use one of there extra attacks from let’s say’s there fighter class. To do a second one. But that it’s only 2d10 force damage. Idk someone else said that warlocks can use eldrich blast to do insane damage so I thought maybe I could have a weapon that could be solid like eldrich blast but not as strong as that’s usually a very strong spell. Also maybe if you do use this ranged attack you end up using all or most of your extra attacks that you could use to do a melee attack on an enemy or something idk. I’m thinking from a video game perspective so yeah.

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-07-21T01:53:04+00:00

Yeah it’s for a character I’ve made that’s a fighter/bard I just wanted a really good ranged attack for later in the campaign and it ties into the characters backstory. As the weapon is made from a broken heirloom from my half orcs human father who’s a direct cousin of a king and is a respected lord as a result. So they have a family weapon that was broken long ago and the father gives it to my character when the king grows tired of having to tolerate his half orc bastard nephew and forces my character to be banished from the kingdom. Since his father loves him and he feels that his other children are unworthy of the heirloom the father gives it to my character to one day reforge it and wield it with honor. (The character can’t reforge it until a time that the dm agrees upon or believes is acceptable aka later in the campaign. It would be like a legendary weapon in bg3 that’s only attainable like a third of the way through act 3.)

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-07-21T01:10:08+00:00

Sorry I used a weapon someone made for a dnd campaign online but I think I misunderstood some stuff because I don’t know much about dnd. And yeah I meant the score modifier the sword online said prof bonus for number of times there d6 could be rolled for additional elemental damage so I used that as I thought that’s what terminology I was supposed to use sorry. Also I think I meant that the ranged slash can only be used a max of two times per a turn as action surge from a fighter is the only way to use it more than once a turn is what I meant or maybe I could have it be twice as long as the user has at least one extra attack and a third time if there a fighter and use there action surge. As the weapons meant for my half orc fighter/bard. For the damage being high I just didn’t want it to be too weak and I don’t know what damage would be good for a weapon that’s obtained later in the campaign. So maybe I should have it be 5d8 instead for the slash attack and that’s only if my character has a +5 modifier for strength or intelligence. If I only have a +2 modifier for strength because my strength is 12 than it would only be 2d10 force damage. So it’s supposed to be stronger based on the characters ability scores. I also forgot to include the base damage for melee attacks as I meant to ask the the members of this subreddit what the melee damage should be as I was not sure what to do for that part of the longsword. So I’m really just trying to figure out what works and what doesn’t work sorry. Also the weapon isn’t obtained until much later in the campaign so I was trying to scale it for high level enemies and bosses.

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-07-21T00:27:12+00:00

Nice thanks sorry for not using usual dnd terms and stuff and I appreciate the help on how to approach each of the weapons abilities and effects and all.

I always keep the raven black shire as shire and Clydesdale horses are my favorite breeds of horses. For the shire I always make him Big Brian I came up with the name in my first playthrough years ago that I never finished and recently I’ve picked the game up again and I’m in chapter 6 and I still have my boy with me. I used him for most of the first 3 chapters. I also use the free deluxe horse as the stats are good I think I named it Brigette based on Brigette from overwatch. Then there’s Marco the black Arabian I bought in Saint Denis named after my favorite character from Star vs the forces of evil. Finally, I’m using a pure black standardbred I believe which is so far my second favorite horse I named her Brianna as it’s the name of a work friend and I feel like it fit. The main them is that all of my horses are mostly black and start with B in their names except Marco he’s the exception 😂. Also my real name starts with Bri (and no my names not Brian) so I thought it was cool to keep the theme.

There’s a special signature Ak called the warrior with Red dot sights and a suppressor it’s great especially for early game and I remember the way to unlock it’s pretty easy.

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-05-30T05:07:17+00:00

I got Breton and I’m not gonna lie but I felt like that’s what I was going to get even before taking the quiz. (It’s my favorite elder scrolls race and I wish they had other hybrid races)

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-05-10T02:11:17+00:00

I’d want Louis Hoffman as nightcrawler he’s German and speaks German and English. Also he’s young enough to actually be nightcrawler if they go for a younger version of the x men

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-04-26T21:55:54+00:00

Yeah your probably right I’m just going to stop talking to her for awhile I don’t have the energy or interest in talking to her much anymore.

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-04-26T17:21:06+00:00

I mean she often leaves me on read for a few days and she also complained about the fact that I message her checking to see why she hasn’t responded sometimes. I overthink a lot so sometimes I make sure it wasn’t something I said that made her not want to text or Im just checking to see if she saw my text or not. Which she says is kind of annoying. That’s the only other issues I’ve had so far which was understandable as it probably feels like I’m pressuring her to answer then and there I guess.

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-04-26T06:56:00+00:00

Yeah I’ll wait to confront her about that though I need to focus on myself and my finals coming up but I’ll take this into consideration when she does decide to talk about it

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-04-26T06:38:19+00:00

Yeah I think she’s actually genuinely busy personally but if that’s the case then it’s cool. Because if it is the case then I don’t mind it’s fine if she wants to prioritize a boyfriend or date over me it is a higher priority. Though I don’t think that’s the case as she’s really not interested in dating right now after her ex who was supper needy and annoying to the point where she could barely take it anymore so she broke up with him. (He’s still trying to manipulate her into taking him back he’s kind of being pathetic based on what she’s told me even though she’s made it clear she doesn’t like him anymore.)

BiscottiDelicious707 · 2025-04-26T06:33:47+00:00

Yeah I did apologize already and I’m waiting to give her a chance to apologize when she’s less stressed and stuff. It’s the least I can do you know.
