    I made a Warforged armorer. He’s a mech that is programmed to think he’s human. Whenever someone points out that he’s a mech, his memory glitches, he forgets the last 5 seconds, and does the chicken little “what are we talking about?” thing. Every upgrade to his body feels normal to him and he wonders why the other humans don’t do the same thing. “Why can’t you shoot lightning from your hands? Why isn’t your skin shiny?” Etc…

      ​@@Winterborn5If you want mechs and laser cannons play shadow run. Not Dungeons and Dragons. This crap class is sci-fi not fantasy. It doesn't fit the world at all ...too high tech and frankly anyone who even wants this in dungeons and dragons doesn't need to play dungeons and dragons. Would a minigun in Skyrim make sense? No. So stop it. Idk wtf they were thinking adding this garbage class to a FANTASY world game. Sci-fi? Sure. Shadow run would be perfect. Dungeons and Dragons? No this is fvckin blasphemy.

      1: Golems are a thing, and a Warforged is basically a metal golem. The tech glitches just made for a funny backstory.
      2: Artificer is an official class in D&D. My character is just an Armorer Artificer with "Ironman" flair.
      3: A minigun in Skyrim would be weird...but shooting a flamethrower from your hands is fine. Rapid fire damage from range...seems the same to me.
      4: Why the rage? Play how you want. My kids are laughing their ass off at my characters antics...and that's the whole point. If you want to rage about a game, I suggest League of Legends or COD. Maybe Counter-Strike...or hang out in Roblox with the rest of the kids.

    I’ve had this character concept floating around in my head for a while now - an Armorer Artificer whose studded leather armor is cursed and wraps around him a la Ragman, Moon Knight, or hell, even Venom. Would need to invest in Dex like crazy, but considering all the buffs you can get to Dex checks you can get with your Infusions, the build could EASILY be the party’s Rogue-equivalent.

    Armorer Artificer is hands down one of my favorite subclasses in D&D, if not my #1 favorite. At the very least it's the class/subclass I've played the most, having made and played *FOUR* different Armorer Artificers so far. And that's not including all the theoretical character builds I've come up with for the Armorer that I haven't had a chance to actually play yet.
    From a Loxodon Armorer Artificer + Totem Warrior Barbarian multiclass that utilizes their Thunder Gauntlets and Reckless Attack to draw the most aggro possible from enemies, to a Goblin Armorer Artificer + Assassin Rogue + Storm Cleric that sneak attacks with their Lightning Launcher and uses their Channel Divinity to maximize the sneak attack damage, to many many more.

    And if your DM tells you that cant play artificer since "didnt fit the medieval fantasy" then just explain to him that the artificer is basically a blacksmith who learn how to combine wizard magic with his crafsmenship
    Artificer is just like Hiccup from how to train your dragon but with wizard magic, i mean, everything they can do with infusions and subclass features in terms of items is already on vanilla dnd5e, so technically someone should create those items, so... Magic blacksmiths:
    Dm: you have a robot companion
    -no, i have a enchanted armor as a friend, like the enchanted armor you make us fight last session who also has personality
    Dm: but you have that laser gun!
    -you mean the enchanted stick with spell attacks, just like the fireball staff and the wand of magic missiles you gave to the wizard?
    Dm: you created boots that let you fly!
    -those are actually pretty similar to boots of flying form the dmg, dont you think?
    Dm: you can summon a cannon!!!!
    - you mean a magical cartoony companion who can sneeze magic to attack my enemies in a comical way and is just a magical enchanted piece of metal or a possesed object?
    Dm: YOU CAN CREATE IRONMAN ARMOR!!!!
    - whaaaat? I cannot do that, didnt you reward the party with let us know that we can buy magical armor from the blacksmith in town who is a wizards apprentice so he can add buffs and spells storing for a price? I mean, if a magically blacksmith in town can do it, im sure i can, and put on them some magical stuff too since i have magic, you know,since im basically a magical blacksmith too

    Unless you’re homebrewing or your DM is allowing you liberties (or you’re misguiding them), you cannot infuse Radiant Weapon onto the thunder gauntlets until 9th level. Arcane armour is magical, the weapons for both sets are part of the armour:
    “At 9th level, you learn how to use your artificer infusions to specially modify your Arcane Armor. That armor now counts as separate items for the purposes of your Infuse Items feature: armor (the chest piece), boots, helmet, and the armor's special weapon.”
    You cannot infuse them at 6th level, as cool as it is (you can only infuse non-magical items). At least by 5e ruling. It is pretty busted too tbh.

    I have a watch suggestion for an older anime movie called Strait Jacket. The setting of that world's narrative the best I can describe would be"Magicpunk", where technology incorporates magic. But if proper precautions aren't taken, the magic corrupts people and turns them into monsters. Then there are special operators called Tactical Sorcerers who fight these monsters. The slang term for them are Strait Jackets due to how crazy they must be, since if their armor and seals take too much damage, they themselves will turn into monsters. Would highly recommend if you haven't seen it before. Awesome video as always and hope everyone has a blessed day!

    I'm probably late to the party, but one of the other people in the YMBA discord is making an armor model for every damage type not covered by the base 2. My personal favorites so far have gotta be the Juggernaut model for melee with advantage on saves vs forced movement and a pair of big boots for weapons, and the Icarus model for ranged, giving you a hang glider built in to the armor and at-will casts of Jump to make it viable without somewhere high-up, plus a frickin grenade launcher that deals 1d6 fire damage to 1 target and a second d6 to everyone within 5ft of the target. That's not even touching the perfected abilities, which give you the Charge trait and a genuine flight speed, respectively.

  • @Keitto191

    Each of the four Artificer subclasses fit a specific play style. The Artillerist is more of a ranged fighter, the Alchemist is for support, the Battle Master is meant to be an offensive front liner, and the Armorer is meant to be a defensive Tank.
    But yeah, add 2 points into Fighter and you can be an unstoppable fighting machine!
    However one bit of advice I’d add is to make up your mind early on which armor model you want to major in; do you mostly want to wear the Guardian or Infiltrator?
    Because depending on your answer you will need to make either Constitution (Guardian) or Dexterity (Infiltrator) your second highest stat, behind Intelligence obviously.
    So in order of Highest to lowest your stats should be: Int, Con (Dex), Dex (Con), Wis, Cha, Str.

    Shadar Kai Armorer is amusing. Teleport and gain damage res to all damage types until your next turn while also being able to move into or out of combat at will to save others or yourself. 👌

    A crazy possibility that's easy to overlook: if you combine Lightning Launchers with Rogue and Tempest Cleric, you have the potential to deal a massive critical Sneak Attack that deals over a hundred lightning damage (granted, this is at or near 20 and 1/rest, but still). Kamehamehamother heffer!

    My Dm in an arena game helped me come up with a character concept. Thri-Kreen Artillerist (because I need to hold the tool to make the connon), but then I can hold my normal gun in one hand and my cannon in the second main. Then, my smaller hands can hold my tool. Then later, I'll hold my focus in my second smaller hand for my cantrips with the +d8 damage. Late game, I'll shoot out 2 cannons and then either shoot my normal gun with my main action or shoot a cantrip with the bonus damage. The only bad part is that I'll need to decide if i want to wear armor for the infusions or if i want to not so I can get the natural armor from the race

    I want to play a full metal alchemist inspired armorer/transmuter multiclass. Warforged race taking first 5 levels in artificer and the rest in wizard levels. Taking the feats spell sniper and sharpshooter. Main attack will be a sling when not casting leveled spells or in melee. I have read the feats repeatedly and i think they work simultaneously with the sling when using the cantrip magic stone since it is a spell attack(checks off for spell sniper) and it uses a ranged weapon(checks off for sharpshooter). It just sounds like fun.

    There are easier ways to get a martial weapon proficiency too beyond just dipping into Fighter or taking a feat. You could for example use a race that has certain martial weapon proficiencies, such as certain elf races or the Githyanki who can just use their Knowledge abilities to give themselves weapon proficiency any time they take a long rest. Alternatively, there are rules in the Player's Handbook or Dungeon Master's Guide (I forget which one) that allow you to spend gold and time straight up learning new proficiencies you don't have as a downtime activity, with the limit being twice your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1). Which, you know, being an Artificer...

      @onisparda2546 It's a really solid subclass for low levels! Bein able to get your hands on Heavy Armor just makes you hard to damage by default, and having weapons that are always on you(gauntlets and bolt gun) is a huge plus! I wholeheartedly endorse The Armorer :DD

    I just got an awesome idea of a dragonborn barbarian that gets constantly disturbed by his 3 kobold brothers (not blood related, of course), and the three of them are artificers, one is that gunner articifcer (idk the name) the other one is that artificer that makes potions and some scrolls (I'm not sure about that and still don't know the name) and the last one is an armorer 😎👍

    I made a Warforged Armorer he was human then got his soul bonded to the armor. I can swing the tide in any fight with him. You can do so much yes your damage isn't the best but I think you can control the battlefield like no one else. I hit multiple guys to make sure the group is protected. I'm hard as hell to hit because AC is through the roof and my saving throws are great because of Flash of Genius. The Armorer is a ton of fun.
