paladins are so good ... if they cheat.

Level 10 Druid of the Land. Hell, they'll even bring the grapes!

Funnily enough, monks get the same immunities (sans charmed by fey/elemental immunity) at level 10... Guess it's just hermit powers or somethin'.

Apparently, if you cast freedom of movement and feign death together, they can still move, just not do actions or reactions and are blind.
A little lesser restoration, and they can infiltrate a morgue, or just to take advantage of resistance to nearly everything.
Also, you might be able to make enemy cleric waste their turn undeads, since you still appear dead.

[Kagus]

...can still move... ...blind.

I now picture a limp body just sort of quickly sliding along the ground, bumping into walls and stuff as it tries to navigate.

A zombie roomba. Roombie? Zoomba? Something along those lines.

[IcyTea31]

Add a Lesser Restoration for the blindness, as pikachu mentioned, and you're good.

A Rogue 18/Barbarian 2 can utilize reckless attack without penalty in order to gain advantage (and thereby sneak attack) on every strike. You'll have to use strength for this attack, but that means you can also rage for +2 rage damage.

While both Reckless and Sneak attack can only be used once per turn, the Thief archetype level 17 allows you to take two turns during your first round in combat.

For this hypothetical, we'll have a character that's using a rapier, holding a shield (barbarian proficiency), has 20 strength (should be possible by level 18/2), and has picked up the Shield Master feat.

Round 1: Thiefbarian rages, moves to enemy, recklessly attacks for 1d8+7+9d6 damage at +11 tohit with advantage. If enemy has lower initiative, they get their turn now, but do not automatically get advantage against Thiefbarian. If not, Thiefbarian just continues with their second turn in a row. Thiefbarian then recklessly attacks again for the same values, and uses bonus action to shove enemy prone with advantage on the strength check, because he's a dick.

Round 2: People start acting sensibly again and Thiefbarian only gets one 1d8+7+9d6 damage at +11 tohit with advantage attack plus shove per round.


Is it an Enmity Paladin 18/Fighter 2 with Great Weapon Mastery burning 4 spell slots for a potential... -*thinking sounds*- ...8d6+24d8+60 damage? No.

It's still pretty funny though.

Round 1: Thiefbarian rages, moves to enemy, recklessly attacks for 1d8+7+9d6 damage at +11 tohit with advantage.

43 damage at level 20? How many total hp does a level 20 encounter have? Only hundreds, or ~1,000?

[Kagus]

Peasants don't scale.

[GiglameshDespair]

1d8+7+9d6 is dealing less damage per round as a standard sword and board fighter 20 only attacking on his turn, but also has less ability to deal with multiple targets, and isn't burning any resources either (I imagine numbers of rages are limited).

I suppose it's one way to always be able to get sneak attack, but... sneak attack isn't very difficult to get anyway.

[Kagus]

You do get perma-advantage though, so a higher chance of critting and doubling the sneaky dice, but yeah. I just thought it was a funny interaction between reckless and the Rogue.

It has, however, helped highlight some of the limitations of sneak attack for me... So there's that!

[Grim Portent]

Sneak Attack is generally best thought of as a variant of Extra Attackaz\

ATTACKAAAAAAZZZZZZ

[Mephisto]

I would like to present the best take on centaurs I've seen.



Too bad the game itself is kind of poo.

[scriver]

They should have made the hooves into hands and feet too

[Kadzar]

You know, now that you mention it, it does kind of seems weirder for centaurs to have human heads. Not to mention this bypasses the awkward question of where the horse part ends and the human part begins.
