    Fun fact: wolverine's power is also supposed to drive him feral, it's a side effect of both of their powers because genetics. However, the adamantium on wolverine's skeleton is trying so hard to kill him, that his power nullified the feral weakness because it's too busy overclocking his healing factor so he doesn't die

    You know, you could do "Wolverine, but updated" by giving us an X-23 build...and also, an X-23 build would be pretty freakin' cool, plus Laura IS Wolverine now so you could just call it "Wolverine again, Again"!

      Yeah, Laura is amazing but her and Logan fight differently enough to warrant building them differently. Plus she's not so entirely unbreakable and sneakier. Probably at least significantly assassin Rogue?

    One way to get around the range issue if you're playing at home and willing to give up on superior critical and capped Con is to take the last two levels in barb for the ability to add an athletics check to your jump's distance. Sure they may be high in the air but that won't help if you can jump 60 feet up

    the rival beast to the angry wolverine is here, and while both are monsters, you are the angriest and meaniest one, if only you get unbreakable claws like that pancy rival of yours... wait, YOU HAVE THEM!? Oh its on!.
    Victor Creed, Aka Sabretooth, is the kind of recurrent villain that will come from hell itself just to spite you one more time (sure some times were tricks of clones and such, but he also did the literal trip! that is some dedication to a cause I can relate! Hopefully one day my ambition for a Tangle the Lemur build from Sir Tulok will become reality, it might be a hard slope, but im willing to take the trip) Becoming a villain like Victor needs many layers of enhancements and traumatic events (as in "Punctured brain" levels of trauma) that will turn you into the most feral warrior there is, go forth and show all who is the true alpha killer around.

    To be honest, I think it would have been a bit better to increase wisdom by 1 and strength by 1 at level 4 in fighter and put the rest of the levels into monk (open hand) as the claws count as a monk weapon and so their damage increases alongside the martial arts dice (up to a d8 here) and with 11 levels in monk you also get the regenerative abilities of open hand (though you could go for something other than open hand to avoid tranquility)

      Yeah it was a movie thing that seemed to stick around. People forget that aside from the adamantium (which Sabretooth had at times anyway), Sabretooth is physically superior to Wolverine in every way. Sadly he jobs hard.

    So in canon, they do have similar power sets but sabertooth is bigger and stronger than wolverine and kicks his ass most fights. Wolverine is a more technical fighter and has way more durability, which he needs cause victor is gonna beat that ass. They are similar but not the same

    Can you start boosting your audio on your videos? On average your videos are about 40% quieter than anything else I listen to. I routinely need to max out the volume on my device to be able to hear these videos.
