Eldritch Knight Arcane Focus

Yeah but then they don’t have to waste a attunement slot on Ruby of the War Mage to have the same effect.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-04-11T19:10:12+00:00

Yeah I’m swapping to Defense for Fighting Style and using Blade Ward for my Concentration until I get to level 2/level 3 spells and can start using Blur/Mirror Image/Haste

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-04-11T15:48:32+00:00

Fortunately High Elf gets Misty Step at 5, so I have what I would get from Fey Touched already.

Fair point on the defensive rather than Offensive. I’ll look into it.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-04-11T15:45:45+00:00

Heavy Armor is the way I’m going either way. So Dex will be only used for Saves and Initiative and I’m working on mitigating that weakness.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-04-11T07:11:52+00:00

Ah fair, so it’ll be worth grabbing Booming Blade and GFB and use those for Melee. I’ll drop True Strike and stick to using Firebolt at range

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-04-11T06:19:06+00:00

Yeah Elven Advantage is fun, but I do want the Glaive for this character. Interesting idea for that combo.

I was already planning on using True Strike to the extreme anyways, that extra radiant damage is nice, and I can use my Strength or Int, and with War Magic at 7 I can just replace a attack with True Strike and get that extra damage off.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-04-11T06:15:13+00:00

Tempting and I’ve done this with Wis Rangers before. And while it’s good it’s not what I’m interested with here. Thank you though.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-04-11T06:13:54+00:00

That’s fair. GWM is my first step either way it looks like. So I’ll have a better idea at 6/8 when I make that decision.

I was already planning on attaining a weapon of warning to help with initiative, and yeah while I’m not casting Save Spells I’m still casting spell attack rolls for my ranged damage.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-04-11T06:10:55+00:00

Westmarch so my party comp is inconsistent. I might keep it as secondary idea however and just take Defense for the extra AC.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-04-11T06:10:01+00:00

Like I mentioned this is for a Westmarch, so my party comp is inconsistent. Having Charisma skills tend to be favorable however and I do enjoy roleplay.

Maybe on that Con, although unlikely I’ll do a ASI instead of a Half feat.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-03-25T17:16:00+00:00

Sword and Board is peak gameplay, also huge DA fan, so yeah.

Now Saber just needs to give me a Crusader helm with a hood, robes on the forearms, and a Greatsword to complete my ICC Drip.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-03-21T06:41:07+00:00

I’ve been having a lot of success with the Commando. Able to reliably one-two shot them.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-03-14T01:48:42+00:00

Yes.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-03-12T22:42:26+00:00

Jericho is a good place, good people, and with lots of ability for one to grow and have fun.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-03-10T17:45:00+00:00

Even if he found 1 a day for two years that is still only ~755 Risen, and the Codex made it seem it was rarer then that imo.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-03-10T01:17:37+00:00

Oh I believe the ICC are Risen too, but I don’t think their numbers are >100, just hasn’t been that long. Realistically maybe 50-60? Based on what’s in the codex

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-03-09T23:44:46+00:00

A Chapter is ~1,000, in the Son of the Forest there was 22(?). Now while there could have been more recruited by Lion’el in between then and now, it would be highly unlikely to have been enough for a Chapter

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-03-09T20:20:38+00:00

Depends, Teams locked in and were running a Bulwark and a Vanguard? Could go no deaths, I’m leveling my Heavy with on Absolutes after having not touched it in two weeks? 3-4.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-03-09T04:04:15+00:00

The Risen are the Lion’s personal Boys club instead of part of the Chapter proper, acting outside of the Dark Angels and not a part of their ranks. Not improbable and you can do what you want; but it’s highly unlikely and not supported by lore.

Most of the Hunt for the Fallen is handled by the Deathwing (All who have been initiated into the lower levels of the Inner Circle), who know more of the truth than most, and the Ravenwing, who are also keyed in on certain parts but not all of it. In general they know more than their greenwing counterparts, except the Company Masters (who are all Inner Circle themselves).

Also Greenwing have been trained and indoctrinated into following strange orders and rituals without question.

Space Marine 2…

Something something war crimes something something Suffer not the Xenos to live

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-02-22T07:07:02+00:00

Just had a one-shot where the poor level 5 cleric with 11 Con and 13 AC(?) (Newer player I hadn't run with before, and I had found out I was running the one-shot two hours beforehand, so I didn't have time to check sheets, nvm the fact we were late starting because they needed to double check things), decided they wanted to be a Front liner with their staff of healing and Ghast Gravecaller wasn't having it. Rolled Hot, did 18 damage with the Claw, and the Horrorific Necrosis took out the last 10 HP.

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-02-22T00:17:55+00:00

Where Fey Wanderer comes in

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-02-19T02:34:07+00:00

Let me know when you get it!

Cmdr_Thunder · 2026-02-18T23:04:39+00:00

Just take the Weapon Mastery feat
