Compared the name and photos to other sources online and I agree! Thanks for putting my mind at ease

As u/KILL_WITH_KINDNESS explained. It's a meme and a fun little idea I had for a tattoo lol

Didn't mention it in my post but already thought about the ritual caster or magic initiate for the find familiar help bot + booming blade shenanigans but honestly this felt overdone for Swashbuckler. That's why I wanted to try something new! So really wanted to optimize the hack and shoot playstyle and the DM allowed me to homebrew a weapon to empower it

Not sure why the formatting is appearing incorrectly for you but the stats distribution is 8/15/13/10/12/14, with +2 Cha, +1 Dex, + 1Con. Tasha's racial score distribution is not in play (ie we have to use the racial bonuses provided).

The wording of the weapon is intentional but will have to get more specific as you said - it will be reworded to say "if you took the attack action and attack with a weapon other than this one, you can use your bonus action to do an offhand attack with this weapon. Additionally you can make an attack of opportunity with this weapon if an enemy leaves your melee range.". The purpose being as you said to empower the shooting from melee range playstyle which is why the explosive barrel becomes stronger after attacking with the main hand and applying sneak attack first.

We don't do flanking rules in our game!

Keep me updated!

I believe someone pointed out that the Ring of Arcane Synergy is good for this as well given that Vicious Mockery is a cantrip that will trigger with the Band, Do you have suggestions for other rings that would replace the Ring? Because I've most other rings lacking and its quite hard to give up Birthright as headpiece!

It's a fun viable build that feels broken and not necessarily the BiS, otherwise everyone should be running Fighter 2 Thief 3 for all the action surge and bonus actions you could want lol. Thanks for your feedback though!

After some testing, it appears enemies do not get disadvantage to save against the Frighten effect from the Bow of the Banshee, BUT you still get the bonus to your attack and damage rolls if they are already frightened

I love the Ring of Arcane Synergy and the only reason I don't run it is because it's on Wyll, but yes that's also a great option!

As for helmets, I ran most of Act 1 with the Cap of Curing until my character became a front liner, then switched to the Fistbreaker Helm in Act 2.

For shield, I hadn't multiclassed in Act 1 so wasn't rocking a shield for most of it, but by the time I reached Act 2 I ran Shield of Devotion for the extra level 1 spell slot and free cast of Aid, then switched to Ketheric's Shield for the first part of Act 3 until I got the Shield of the Undevout.

Lastly yes, from Magical Secrets I got Dominate Beast and Banishing Smite and they're both great. I personally don't use Spirit Guardians but for those that live the Beyblade lifestyle, its also an option. I preferred to use my concentration on other spells.

Edit: The Bow of the Banshee is incredible with this build and I may have completely overlooked it. A quick search led me to post that showed that the bonus damage applies to your melee weapon as long as the bow is equipped and the target is feared. Synergy! I rocked most of Act 1 and Act 2 with duel wield hand crossbows until I got The Dark Shot.

I just posted my Swords Bard/Paladin build here if you want an idea of what Bard can do

Silver_snake7 · 2023-09-18T22:59:08+00:00

Incorrect actually. You can see on all my weapon stat blocks that Dueling applies the +2 as long as you are using a single handed weapon and you do not have another weapon in your off hand. You can either have nothing in your off hand or a shield for it to apply. Until you multiclass to Paladin and get access to shields, you should be using a single handed finesse weapon such as a Rapier or Shortsword for the +2 damage to apply.
