    I personally always go low charisma 10-12 and 10 Dex and then 10 intelligence so I can play a aggressive force playstyle. I tend to weave in and out of combat buffing / healing where needed maybe not the most optimal or best I find it fun. My point go into Strength,Wisdom, constitution mainly. Again how I play as consular as I hate spamming aggressive force powers I tend to buff when playing light

    I played 5e for... 8 years? And never once was tempted to play a warlock. Now my very first character for 2024 D&D is going to be a warlock. They just improved the class *so much*. The invocations are light years better than they used to be. The subclasses are way better... they're actually appealing now. I'm going archfey because I love the idea of a trickster who teleports around, and there's so many fun invocations - the one that lets you cast jump (which is even better than it used to be) and the one that lets you cast invisibility.... So cool. Great video, keep it up!

      I've always enjoyed the warlock just for the flavor, so I'm so excited for the love they got. My group just started a new campaign and I'm running a Celestial warlock. I love the new familiars they added with pact of the chain, especially the sphinx of wonder, and the fact that I don't feel bad playing a warlock that doesn't rely entirely on eldritch blast. It also seems like they buffed (maybe?) Fiendish Vigor? They removed the text that says "you cast it as a level 1 spell" so RAW it seems like it scales with your pact magic spell slots? They similarly removed the text from magic initiate that says you cast your level 1 spell at the lowest possible level which also makes me think that fiendish vigor scales. It seems bonkers that it would scale, but that seems like a MASSIVE oversight that the explicitly removed the rule text to cast it at the lowest level if they still expected you to. I'm not going to complain though with my 12 AC super squishy warlock, he needs all the help he can get lol.

    The game freeze bug in kotor is caused by high frame rates. Capping framerate at 75 or lower fixes it. I agree though kotor did not age well lol. I always said it was the best RPG ever made for years, then recently finally decided to play it again after not playing it for over 20 years. Gah damn it just doesn't hit the same way as it used to. I honestly think the class stories in SWTOR are way better. Next up on my list of games to replay is Mass Effect trilogy. Really hope it's as good as I remember it haha

    Paint your minis with cheap craft paint. Painting is fun but you can go as simple or as complex as you want. From a distance it doesn't matter much. Simple color blocking with craft paint is enough to make them look good from a distance. Also Wizkids minis are pre-primed but if you bought non-primed minis then just pick up some basic light gray rustoleum primer (cheap) or go hardcore and buy fancy mini paints NOTE: the speedpaint/contrast paints are the easiest to use and give the models great contrast. Painting tip: Prime models dark gray or black, then use either a light gray/white primer to spray down onto the model OR just use white paint and paint in downward brush strokes to paint up the highlighs on the model. Then let it dry and paint with your Speedpaint /or Contrast paints. It will make the models really pop and be vibrant

    Also, in terms of physical stuff. I’d recommend D&D beyond. It’s the official app and there are free stuff for character making, and people can buy stuff in the app at any time, and the digital books are cheaper than physical

  • @Bored_Barbarian
    @Bored_Barbarian 19 днів тому

    As someone who has played a lot, I definitely enjoy more people covering D&D. I’ll also recommend Adventure league. It’s easy for drop-in/drop-out play and has tons of premade adventures, and folks can even make official fan adventures called Dungeoncraft. The best part about AL for me is you can go from one table to another with the same characters, since all AL DMs use the same consistent rules. So a level 1 rogue can play in Saltmarsh one week, do a fun 4 hour adventure, get level 2 and then play in Hillsfar at a different game shop or even from In person play to online, or visa versa.

    • @GamingYourOwnWay
      @GamingYourOwnWay 26 днів тому

      The beginning is definitely rough, because force powers are expensive and Atton has to be micromanaged to really get the most out of him. He deals the most damage with sneak attack but to do that you have to have him in specific positions to get that. Your main character should hopefully be able to carry you through the beginning until the world opens up, and then you’ll get companions that are a little easier to use with damage and Kreia will be able to spam force powers for pretty big damage far more often.

  • @BW022
    @BW022 29 днів тому

    Few opinions and corrections... Armor of Shadows is also weak as, even if you don't have someone else to cast it on you, warlocks can wear light armor. Studded leather is available nearly right off the bat, so it's only a +1 to your AC (and some weight savings). However, mid-way into Act 1, you'll have studded leather+1 and it's now useless throughout the game. Fiendish Vigor is also a trap. Many spells and abilities give you temporary hit points and they don't stack. Any fiend warlock gets dark one's blessing which is 4hp and often goes off repeatedly during a battle. Armor of Agathys (a great non-concentration spell) generally makes this useless as does heroism and other sources. Polymorph is also not a touch spell. Range is 18m. That said, it's a weak vs. so many other spells which don't require an invocation -- hold person, confusion, banishment, etc.

    • @GamingYourOwnWay
      @GamingYourOwnWay 29 днів тому

      All good points! Mage armor is useful if you give your warlock the potent robe, but still no need for armor of shadows to get it! I don't disagree Fiendish Vigor is very underwhelming, but I rank it decently high for BG3 because the likelihood that I use most of the other invocations is very low, and at least with fiendish vigor I can guarantee I have temp hitpoints all the time. Not sure why I thought polymorph was touch 🤷 😂

    • @BW022
      @BW022 29 днів тому

      @@GamingYourOwnWay By the time you are that far into Act 2, even assuming you get the item, you aren't relying on mage armor to keep you alive. By those levels most monsters are coming at you with a +10 attack or so often with multiple attacks. Whether your AC is 14 or 16 really doesn't matter. You'll long since be relying on staying out of melee, hiding, serious defensive spells (blur, blink, mirror image, improved invisibility, etc.), taking the medium armor proficiency, etc. vs. assuming a few points of armor (even in a specific case) is worth it. Robe is much more useful on a sorcerer. You won't have those hit points all the time as you definitely won't be wasting actions to cast it in combat once you are hit. Again, like mage armor, you'll have the same issue by even 5th-level. At least other invocations retain some usefulness at higher levels.

    Destroy Droid is the only way for a Light Side character to deal with the Jedi pods in the Malak final fight. Otherwise you have to fight Malak multiple times, since he heals to full each time you bring him down if there is still a Jedi he can drain. On the other hand, Dark Side can lightning or drain life the Jedi.

    Could you make an influence guide on what the people you gain influence with actually give you. For example, Atton gives you +1 will saves eventually. Visas gives you Force Sight. What do the others give you once you unlock everything? As you have mentioned in this video and others, characters can steal influence from others. And is it worth gaining influence with others? For Mira, after you convert her (or not) do you need to gain any more influence with her?
