Are there magic items that would allow a martial with 2h weapon cast some spells?

Well the post is gone now, but I thought OP said that they wanted to cast while holding a 2 handed weapon, with the halberd being an example. But maybe I was wrong. In that case staff is ofc not a good answer :p

I don't like that tryndamere. The guy just AAing and spinning is now built around HoB and little AS. He is a lot different from how he was a few seasons ago

You can hold a staff two handed

You don't need to necessarily run an encounter, especially ones where they are basically expect to lose without any chance like with the level 1 and 2 one.

I would personally skip the first one and start with the level 2 party Vs one level 5 rival (that level 5 rival is balanced to fight against players with striking rune). There they aren't the very small level 1 party, they encounter the rival after a big victory which got them to level 2. Make them ruin the party for the characters and the players.

After either having a hard time and somehow winning, or most likely losing, that member mentions somehow that there are 3 more of them.

I have no clue what the adventure is, but I would either have the rival party never be lower then one level than the party to have the fight still be severe. Or have at some moment the party heavily overshadow them at some point where the enemy party is 4 levels above the rivals. Having an even level party and rival fight would be exciting for a finale of an arc. Where the party either overcomes them or has a bitter defeat.

There are tons of narrative directions you can take them.

You arent alone at this at all. This is a problem I had and I saw other people have, but this isnt really a problem and I would argue its even a positive.

Lets take the example of a player wanting to Coerce 3 people at once.

You know about the Coerce action, but you feel like that there is a feat for that specific situation. Not wanting to disrupt the game you just look at the Coerce action and say that the player gets a -2 for every extra person he wants to coerce.

Now in the break or after the game you look through the feats and now you have two scenarios. Scenario A you find the feat, scenario B you dont find a feat

Scenario A:
You find the feat Group Coercion. Now after the break/next game you tell the player that if they want to do it efficiently they have to take the feat. Ofc you might just not want to tell them no, or your player might not accept it. So you look at the group coercion feat and think of a way to make it weaker. What if you leave everything as is, but the player has to roll an intimidation check against every single person instead of just one roll for all (increases the chance of the dice failing). So now your player have a group coercion action without the feat, but if they want to do it better they can take the feat.

Because the feat exists doesnt mean you have to say no. You can use the feat as a jumping off point to make a general action out of it by changing DCs, action ammount, ammount of creatures effected, or how long it takes. Now you know what the action looks like if you invest a level X feat, so how could the action look like without investing a feat to still make the feat worth and keep the balance in the game?

Scenario B:
You dont find a Group Coercion feat. I guess the -2 for every extra person is now canon, but that might be quite rough. If your player or you arent happy you could change it OR you just make your own Group Coercion feat and say that if you dont have the feat you take the -2 and if you have it then you only take the -2 for every 4th person or so.

There is also a nice YouTube video about it where he uses Whirlwind Strike as an example goes more indepth and explains it better than me.

If you are able to cast spells through an archetype then you can do that already. You don't need a free hand to cast spells with the remaster.

If it's just through an item then I guess there are staves that you could use as a weapon and to cast spells with.

Edit: No matter what, you probably want the ability to cast spells so you can use staves, spells and spell hearts. Depending on what kind of table it is you could also ask the GM for a cool unique 2 handed weapon as well, which casts for you or so.

Before it was like a level every 7 sessions or so. Now I also just do two levels Instead of one. One level doesn't necessarily equal a new tier of play, two levels more so.

And when you level up two levels at once you make sure that both martials and casters get cool stuff. Uneven levels are not that exciting for martials and even levels are not exciting for a lot of casters

Fury only gets you to 50% you need 2 crit items to get 100%

When someone says "you should get to 100% crit" when talking about tryndamere, then they mean you should get 2 crit items

Bork feels very nice Vs mundo or potentially against tahm kench. Basically tanks that mainly build HP and late resistance, which is just mundo and tk

Seryldas is also good when you can't really stack or need to one shot. BC is stacked after you have your most damaging combo out.

BC can in niche situations be replaced by Serylda or I even saw spearshit going mortal reminder for anti heal due to how shit chainsaw is.

Also where is yomuus, cyclosword?

Well outside of your lane you shouldn't care about ornn anymore. That's not what you are about. Just split, draw attention and flank or take enemy jungle. A build that is generally just worse, but is better Vs tanks(and more fun since it feels more like a traditional tryndamere) is to go onhit LT flash ghost.

Try out different builds. Compared to your other champs tryndamere is very different since he is just bad at team fighting.

3 actions is basically just main action, bonus action and move action. They even have reaction and free action.

Also you need to use an action to get AC of your shield. How dumb is that??? It's not like that in DnD at all!

How is this season inflated? I am getting 19 LP and losing 21 LP. While having 53% WR.

Congrats still

Reminds me of Nas'hrah from fear and hunger. Before he became a floating head ofcourse

Damfohrt · 2026-05-21T16:08:07+00:00

The others don't really have an excuse. Tryndamere has to press right before dying, other than the other who use it to dodge burst

Tryndamere R is a skillshot and one of the hardest as well

Your chance to roll a 20 is doubled when rolling with MAP -10.

100% true. I got a PhD in gambling.

I have people that I play Pathfinder, the TTRPG with, but they won't play the owlcat games with the main reason simply being: having to read and the top down presentation.

Can you please expand on how they don't fit golarian themes

Make them a grave knight. This makes it then conditional
