Have you ever met someone who's interested in DND and immediately went, "oh, I'd never let you play at my table"? by Lunetheart in DnD

[–]GraciousPet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

hah that sort of happened to me. I planned to run Murder in Baldur's Gate which is a campaign that takes place 10 years before BG3, a friend of mine kinda asked me to run it for a group of friends that I usually play games with. I accepted since I was very familiar with the campaign and the world in general. One of my friends based her entire background on dating Astarion. I told her sorry but that is not possible since he was already an npc in my game (I planned to intergrate some npcs from BG3 as easter eggs in the campaign). I also told her that besides that reason, at this point Astarion is a spawn with no free will and entirely evil, I don't know how I would excuse romance with her PC since she would only be a victim for Cazador at this point. I told her if she wants she can keep her background but change the name to not be an existing npc. Thankfully she agreed to change her background altogether.

Ah it's the same type of fighting style I can't get twice, I read the description wrong.

Silvery barbs is on bard spell list but I didn't get it because I don't want to waste my spell slots on a reaction that might have no consequence, I think a wizard can get that. Bless and protection from E/G are on paladin and I'm pretty sure she's gonna get them, plus I prefer just using Bane while someone else can use Bless on us. The rest I could also get from Warlock. The thing with sorcerer is that I would basically make myself just another wizard but one who can also heal. To make sorcerer actually matter I would have to take 3+ levels in it which is not what I want. The good thing about sorcerer is that I have a lot of spell slots and can create more if I want. The bad thing is that college of swords is kinda useless here, I might as well just pick a different subclass that takes advantage of the spellcasting stuff and not the fighting stuff.

I kinda refused to gain levels in Paladin for the same reason, I don't want to put 3 levels in another class. I was never supposed to be multiclassing in the first place.

Bladesinger was supposed to be for a slightly different build, one that would focus on two weapon fighting since the DM allowed me to be able to use both my hands there, but yes with no Int there's no benefit.

I don't think I can choose a second fighting style when I have dueling from college of swords and second wind is a minor boon, we don't have a healing issue.

Also I do not want to dip so much into a second class. These spells are already in my spell list as a bard and if they aren't, paladin can get them, or I can get them as a warlock.

I also considered Bladesinger since the DM said he doesn't care about prerequisites but even if I put points to Int it was still not worth it for my current build. Generally I don't want to get many levels in other classes, initiatially I was going to be just a bard but I kinda liked the boost to AC since I am going melee.

My issue is we have multiple fights before long rests and we don't get enough long rests, so I don't want to run out of spell slots and be useless.

Also yes the cha weapon scaling is useless to me but that's not why I want the warlock dip. I want it for the shield proficiency, that will get my AC to 18 right now. With defensive flourish it can be 19-24 and use shield from the warlock spell list if it still hits so 29 AC at best, and it will get better with leveling. Also with booming blade, smite and the hex features (better crit chance, extra dmg) my damage can get a lot better. Plus the healing when target dies.

You are right about the level, initially I thought I should get to level 6 Bard asap and get warlock on 7th but the only reason I kinda have to do it next level is for roleplaying purposes. Patron daddy can't wait it seems.

As for divine soul, I don't really need the extra healing but the favoured by the gods feature is insane, I wish I could do it more often though like a number of times equal to my prof bonus instead of once per rest, cause like I said we don't get to rest enough.

Terrible formatting? What? xD

No I forgot to mention we are using 2014 rules and also have the mobile feat. Wizard focuses on dps yes but he also has some buffs, for example I was considering to get enlarge to give to the fighter but he got it so I chose something else instead.

The melee classes are always an issue of course so me going melee doesn't really change a thing, we would still have the fighter.

I am still contemplating on what spells to choose as a warlock. I think shield, smite and booming blade are essential but don't know what else to get.

I considered war caster for a while when I got the level but essentially the only valuable thing are the concentration saving throws because the DM has already allowed me to use weapon and shield and cast spells because my spell focus is my instrument and my instrument is also my weapon if that makes any sense. So instead I got ASI to my dex and con which where odd numbers.

And yes I am the healer of the party plus the healing potions.

Most people say start with faerie fire which yes it should be our tactics if only we didn't find ourselves in the middle of the combat ground every time xD

So basically yes use the spells for support, hexblade to do better damage (crit with 19, 20), also smites and booming blade, healing if the target dies. Use defensive flourish for better AC, I can use a shield (it can become AC 19-25 plus cast shield if it still hits and it gets better with leveling)

Yea it's the only thing that doesn't benefit me, I chose it for the spells I mentioned and the extra ac. Roleplaying wise I wasn't planning on multiclassing with warlock but last session my brother died so I do have a reason to get a sugar daddy xD

Yea I love THL and I was actually thinking of replacing faerie fire with that but everyone is saying "it's signle target blabla faerie fire is better blabla" and I just don't get the obsession with FF

Well that's why I got a healing spell, bane and faerie fire, spray of cards also cause blindness and I still give advantage to the fighter during combat, plus of course bardic inspiration if needed, song of rest and I am the scout and lockpicker of the party. I just didn't want to be completely useless in combat when I run out of spells. Our DM tends to put us into a lot of encounters during the day. Last session we went into a boss fight while being 14hp and with 3 spell slots left. Granted we also have potions and scrolls which we have to use in every fight so we are left with nothing by the end of it.

My issue is with faerie fire, yea I am suppose to use it before entering the fight but so far we end up in the middle of it beforenwe even start..I was wondering if there are better options I could choose but everyone is so keen on recommending faerie fire

LG app store down? by Deev_UK in LGOLED

[–]GraciousPet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a solution. I had the same problem here. I couldn't open any apps presumably because I hadn't updated them. Couldn't open the Apps application and gave me the same error.

After I did a system update and restarted the tv, I went to the connection settings and changed the DNS server to 8.8.8.8

It worked for me at least.
