The Tasmanian Devil: D&D Build #133

The Tasmanian Devil: D&D Build #133

Can a Strength-Based Monk be effective in D&D 5e? I think so. Especially if they're getting 5 attacks every turn...

The Tanklock (Warlock Tank): D&D Build #132

The Tanklock (Warlock Tank): D&D Build #132

Until today, there was only one class in D&D 5e that I hadn't yet tried to make a tank build out of: The Warlock. And guess what? We're not even going Hexblade!

The War Priest Cleric: PF2e #5

The War Priest Cleric: PF2e #5

Today's we try to make the best Pathfinder Gish we can out of the Core Rulebook. The result? Big hits with a big sword, big spell damage, and big heals, all in one character.

The Alchemist: D&D #131

The Alchemist: D&D #131

Can a character be *mostly* an Artificer Alchemist and still do both decent damage *and* fantastic support? I submit that they can.

The Flurry Ranger: PF2e #4

The Flurry Ranger: PF2e #4

Today's Pathfinder build feels a lot like Geralt: a Monster Hunter who slices and dices.

Bladesinger 3.0 (The Flamesinger): D&D #130

Bladesinger 3.0 (The Flamesinger): D&D #130

If I were to play a Bladesinger in D&D 5e today, this is how I would build them. A combination of burst damage, sustained DPR, and strong spellcasting :).

The Laughing Shadow Magus: PF2e #3

You want to be an expert melee striker *and* you want to cast spells? Look no further than the Magus: conceptually, my favorite Gish ever.

The Catapult: D&D #129

The Catapult: D&D #129

Today's D&D 5e build is an attempt to answer one question: how far into the air could we blast an enemy in a single round of combat if we built for it?

The Rogue Thief: PF2 #2

The Rogue Thief: PF2 #2

In Pathfinder 2e, if you want to be a melee damage dealer who can pretty much ignore Strength to focus on finesse, there is one best option: the nimble, backstabbing, lockpicking but hard hitting Rog…

The War Priest: D&D5e #128

The War Priest: D&D5e #128

Today we're building a War Cleric for D&D 5e. Ok, fine, it's *mostly* a War Cleric; regardless, they're definitely bringing the Good Word of their God to the masses via... a big huge hammer.

The Ninja: PF2e #1

The Ninja: PF2e #1

In my first ever character build for Pathfinder 2e, I try to create a stealthy, sneaky, silent but deadly Monk, and *spoiler alert* - in Pathfinder, Monks freaking awesome.

The Psionic Protector: d4 #127

Our D&D 5e character build this week is an attempt to make a tank who can help protect their allies *regardless* of where the enemy may be on the battlefield.

The Cantrip Blaster: d4 #125

Can we build a D&D character who does respectable damage using *only* Cantrips? What if we exclude Eldritch Blast and Booming Blade?

The Four Elements Avatar: d4 #124

The Four Elements Avatar: d4 #124

Can we build a Way of the Four Elements Monk that's actually effective in D&D 5e combat? It's not *exactly* Aang from the Last Airbender, but I love it anyway :).
