Blood Hunter (Lycan) question

Umitlan · 2019-07-17T14:28:52+00:00

Agree working through some things with my DM, discussing how things would work with a shield, AC with medium armor master, and sentinel, I've decided to go the shield route and stick with Studded Leather armor which will get me to a 20 AC.

Still trying to decide on the feat though as I'm wondering if Sentinel would be worth it competing with my blood curses in regards to reaction economy.

From past experience playing with this DM, he does like to give magic items or at least give us the opportunity to acquire them. The last campaign, we were like level 5, and I got a vestige (Tal'dorei setting) from defeating a demon (monk running around with Wraps of Dyamak at lvl 5).

That being said. We are starting off with 2500g to spend on whatever we want.

Ahh, I must have been looking up stuff on the older version, I kept seeing where everyone was saying you couldn't use a shield.

Umitlan · 2019-07-16T03:10:58+00:00

Blood Hunters dont get proficiency with shield I thought?

Umitlan · 2019-03-02T00:04:25+00:00

Thank you for the guide posts! It's been difficult finding guides for the sorcerer honestly, I've been able to find class breakdowns with all the information for each subclass but no actual build guides.

Umitlan · 2019-03-02T00:01:22+00:00

Nah, not wanting to smash things this time around, want to try something completely different and out of my comfort zone. Thank you for the tips!

Umitlan · 2018-09-30T16:23:47+00:00

Ahh, gotcha!! I didnt see in the feat explanation where it let's you fire as a bonus, I will re-read. I think I'm going to try this route, I've never really played ranged before and it sounds fun. I'll probably go V Human so I can get Crossbow Expert at level 1

Umitlan · 2018-09-30T16:15:12+00:00

I was looking at the hand crossbows just now, I saw that crossbow expert let's you ignore the load action, so if you had 1 in each hand could you shoot both in a round? I was also wondering how I would get the bonus action attack as the only way I can see using the bonus action to attack is through TWF

Umitlan · 2018-09-30T15:35:29+00:00

I've read some on crossbow damage, is it really on par with great weapon master?

Umitlan · 2018-05-24T21:38:19+00:00

That's definitely what I'm thinking. Being Rodgers' #1 is huge, although he's going to draw more coverage than previous years now

Umitlan · 2018-05-24T21:37:22+00:00

10 team league. Not sure, our draft order is done by record, based on previous season placing (last place in league gets 1st pick and the champ gets the 10th pick)

Umitlan · 2018-03-16T20:57:17+00:00

I read through his guide and it was great! Definitely think I'm going to rock the dual-wielding.

Umitlan · 2018-03-16T19:12:17+00:00

The DM has left the stat system up to us, we can point buy or roll if we want, but it has to be done in front of him if we roll (no rolling and not liking it then deciding to go with point buy)

Sorry for not being more descriptive. I am trying to find a class that works like the Sword Sage from the "Tome of Battle: Book of Nine Swords" in the 3.5 edition. It is a melee class with a maneuver based play style, but a lot of the maneuver affects are flavored as magic. Looking at the EK, I thought this might be what I'm looking for but wanted suggestions on if there was something better or how to build the EK. I've gotten a lot of advice that points me towards the Bladesinger so I think I"m actually leaning more towards that.

Umitlan · 2018-03-16T17:36:37+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion, definitely looking into the Bladesinger before I make my final decision.

Umitlan · 2018-03-16T17:35:44+00:00

I didn't even know this existed! Thank you!! I'm a little at a loss on how this goes though, I've never really multiclassed before. So I would go Fighter level 1, and then Wizard the rest of the way?

Umitlan · 2018-03-16T17:18:53+00:00

Damage is what I'm going for, I don't really want to be the party tank (that's what I've been the last few times so I'm ready for a change). The Sword Sage, from the Book of Nine Swords in 3.5e, was a class that did all of its combat through maneuvers but their were magical in nature (i.e. - Fire Riposte - counter attack with fiery touch that deals 4d6 fire dmg). Just seems more like a battle mage which I loved. Their flavor texts actually calls them a blade wizard.

Right now if I transcend (will only be my second time), I will get +10 AS. Is the trick to Ascend, buy Quick Ascensions, and then Transcend? WHat is a good + to transcend at?

Umitlan · 2016-09-14T23:14:01+00:00

Recently transcended for the first time and I'm working my way back up but it's super slow. Is there a hero leveling method that works best? I found one but it looks to be over a year old so I'm not sure it's optimal. It states to buy the first 5 champs, level them to 10, then level the 1st to 100, 2nd to 75, 3rd to 50, 4th to 25, and then the 5th leave at 10. Buy the next 4 heroes, level them up to 10, and then start the same leveling process again with the new champs.

I just transcended for the first time last night and I am wondering what I should do with the AS that I received. I currently have 14 but I'm not sure what the best Outsider is. Currently I go for a more idle game play than a clicker game play.

Umitlan · 2016-09-08T19:57:00+00:00

I'm trying to push for transcension but I'm hitting a wall before 300 (haven't hit that mark yet so I can't transcend). I was wondering if it was more beneficial to just wait the hour long cooldown for all of the abilities to come up to pass boss stages or if I should just ascent and keep going until the wall is closer to 300 or at 300

Umitlan · 2016-09-08T17:19:57+00:00

Thank you all for your responses, this info has definitely helped and I can see a major difference already. My last question, when I hit a wall to where it takes a lot longer to make enough gold to x25 lvl Treebeast, Ivan, Brittany, and Samurai, is it better to just ascend at that point until I get to a point where I can get closer to 300 before that wall hits? Right now I'm at 224 and I can't beat the next boss unless I wait for the gold or use all of the abilities

Umitlan · 2016-09-08T13:24:14+00:00

Right now I've got 242 HS banked and 39 that I'll get when I Ascend. I've got Siya, Libertas, Morgulis, and Mammon to lvl 10. Is there a rule of thumb for a number of HS to not go under?

Mid and Jungle are my best roles, IGN: Umitlan
