Once Saitama was requested, I knew I had to take on the challenge of trying to kill almost anything in a single hit, and I think I pulled it off.

I think recently Brennan Lee Mulligan made a character with "Largest single hit damage" as a goal for a lv 20 one-shot, and he landed on a Bunny Assassin-Paladin-Sorceror. He also combined sneak attack and smite, and did a lot of work to bump his initiative to ensure he went first in combat. I think it's pretty cool that you guys had similar thought processes to combine sneak attack and smite, but still landed on different builds.
I feel honored that Brennan Lee Mulligan and myself did remotely similar builds
Not to rip on BLM, love the guy, but he was given like 3 incredible powerful items of his choice. 1 being the Legendary sword of Zariel which is the best martial weapon in official 5e, he even gave up sneak attack to do it as that sword isn't finesse. Also grabbed the Giant belt that pumped his STR to 25 i think. And then his 3rd item was the butcher's bib which increases Crit range to a 19 or 20. and it wasn't "most damage in a single hit" it was "most damage in a single turn". As he had fighter levels for action surge. Was a hilarious build though and averaged like 450 damage in that one turn, but was sorta crap after that 🤣
If a player did Saitama in my game, I would just have them start off as a level 20 monk, while the rest of the party was level 1, and then give them extra stats as the party level ups. I feel that would capture the feel of just being too powerful compared to everyone else.
Apropos of nothing, one of my favorite "one hit wonder" builds multiclasses rogue assassin for sneak attack with ranger gloom stalker for dread ambusher and warlock hexblade for eldritch smite
I didn't think about some gloom stalker that would have been nice to consider... Damn... I need you helping me with these vids from the start lol
I love how you explained your thought process and with texts! So cool. I wanna try this where all the party members are Saitamas and we just gang up on tarasques
Edit: I'd like to see your take on iron man and captain amerca
Yeah the only other time I used a ton of text was my Sonic build, but it really helps to sort out these number heavy builds.
I usually don't like builds that are too gimmicky, for example the Sonic one.
But a Rogue Hexblade has a chance to come in handy on more situations than its occasional crit.
I like it!.
How does this channel not have more subs. Very underrated
Well thanks, that comment pretty much just made my day 😁
Quick correction: At 10:51 you talked about Eldritch Smite, but you have to be a 5th level Warlock to take Eldritch Smite, which would take away Death Strike, so the damage calculation on this part would be a lot less.
You could probably still get it with the Eldritch adept feat, but either way you're right the calculation is off because you wouldn't be able to use as high of a spell slot even if it was allowed using that
@@dndbuilds Level prerequisites for invocations apply to Warlock levels specifically, not total character level.
Damage numbers in Star Wars 5e can get insane. Some of the item modifications can do stuff like improve damage die on certain classes (the Rogue and Paladin equivalents can make their respective Sneak Attack/Divine Smite damage die scale up to d12s, which is insane) or make something more likely to critically hit (with item modifications and feats or subclass features, it is possible to critically hit fools on a 16-20. The equivalent of Elven Accuracy isn't limited to one race so if you get that, I'd say your chances of getting the crit are basically guaranteed). Brutal Critical isn't limited to just Barbarians in this game, it's also become a weapon property and as for said class, their item mods allow them an extra Brutal Critical die per item mod and an additional +1 to Rage damage.
Feats like Sharpshooter and Great Weapon Master get a rework in this game also. Instead of putting the player at a static -5 to hit for +10 damage, it scales up with their proficiency bonus so a character at level 8 with SS would be at a -3 to hit for +6 damage, for example. By 17th level, it'd be a -6 for +12 damage and if the DM wants to take the campaign past 20th (which for a homebrew rework for DnD 5e in a galaxy far far away is possible), it'd be -10 for +20 damage at 30th level (at this point, I'd bank on the players having their attacking stat go past the 20 cap whether through class features, items or cybernetic augmentations. Without the power attack, they're effectively one shotting low level mooks with each successful attack roll on average).
Quick note: You mentioned at the end about the venom build, that you can't Smite on an unarmed strike, which is correct. But the natural weapon you get from beast barbarian counts as a simple melee weapon. So you could totally smite with the bite, claw, or tail attack. Which is absurd to think about, but fully within the rules.
I just had to figure out how to take out any enemy in DnD with a single hit, with the biggest possible critical hit. So here's Saitama, in DnD
EDIT2: Also realized, you could even incorporate Booming Blade as well, giving you EVEN MORE... damn, that's a bunch more points, that are practically unneeded at this point lol, this would add another 3d8 to the hit or 6d8 on a crit (30 damage on average or 48 Max, before any multipliers) this could have gotten us to OVER 1000 DAMAGE!!!
Edit... Again, I did miss some of how the level requirements worked for Eldritch Invocations, most of the build still applies, but you may miss out on a few bits
other improvements to the damage could happen on a team like getting Holy Weapon cast, which would boost you even more... but like I mentioned... that might just be overkill lol 😉
And be a goblin for fury of the small
I think that a barbarian bear 6 fighter brute 14 is nice to do with one punch man, tavern brawler and brawny feat, unarmed fighting as a fighting style, also you can do "special moves" like trowhing rocks to people, grab the floor and throw it and other cool things like that
Awesome, love this more than the simple "Way of the open fist-quivering palm"
I know little of dnd and stuff like that but I like one punch man so I stayed the whole video and liked it
Subbed!👍🏽
I'm happy you decided to stick around 😊
You could do a different build to still get smite, sneak attack (possibly), and grave domain while still using unarmed fighting. Don’t know if it would do quite as much though.
One Punch Build:
9 Levels of Monk (Way of the Sun Soul Subclass for Smite Damage + Burning Hands.)
9 Levels of Rogue (For that sneak attack damage.)
2 Levels of Cleric (Grave Domain for that Double Damage.)
Also Half-Orc race would be a great choice.
Thanks for the video, I enjoyed seeing the breakdown for the average and max damage, that was pretty solid. I just wanted to let you know when you showed the 17 Rogue/3 Warlock. You would not be able to use eldritch smite, it is a lv 5 warlock invocation.
I think if you took the Eldritch adept feat you could still pull it off. Because you still meet the level requirements and you're able to grab that invocation. Plus rogues have a few extra abilities core improvements to help them out and grab that extra feat if necessary. But when I run a lot of numbers I do run the risk of missing something a little more, so I probably should have mentioned it.
@@dndbuilds It's all good. I enjoyed seeing the different combinations of levels for multi classes. A lot of other builds on UA-cam just stick to one build path.
@@LoreFoundry yeah I try to just go with what fits the character or the concept of the build. Sometimes that leads to a very straightforward build, but I definitely enjoy mixing it up a bit.
Owch! So much damage! Thats a termonuclear missile by hands. Thanks for the maths and explanations
I enjoy the math portion lol, so hopefully it made it a bit easier. But yeah that's essentially a melee nuke
One interesting build to try making is King from One Punch Man
"That's a lot of damage", the build 😂
yeah essentially 😂 you can obviously pull off some other numbers with spells but this is more about a melee strike.
@@dndbuilds At that point, with spells and party, that's a calc for a Genkidama or another Power of Frindship attack.
@@borderlinebear5509 I mean, it really just comes down to pouring as much magic into one person as possible. I just picture the care bears shooting beams out of their bellies into Saitama lol just buffing him beyond belief
You killed me on that one 😂😂
17 assassin 2 cleric 1 warlock. bugbear as the race, 9d6 sneak attack+2d6 surprise attack from bug bear, +1d6 hex curse which also gives them disadvantage against death strike and its a bonus action so use it before engaging just like path to the grave, 1d8 rapier, then crit for 24d6 and 3d8 with piercer then add prof from hexblade curse for +6, +5 for dex, take fighting initiate for +2 for dueling then double for path to grave then double again for death strike which totals out to 724 max damage correct me if my math is off, then if you use critical role you take the cruel feat for an additional +6 which can be doubled twice as well and you take vital sacrifice which will give you an additional 2d6 which will be damage dice so crit is 4d6 and then doubled twice which is going to be +24 for cruel and +96 for vital for a total 844 max damage. again correct me if I'm wrong, now this would take a lot of prep but so would the build here and the goal was maximum possible damage in one strike.
Can you make your version of Genos build video? I want to see that!
I personally prefer my 3 samurai, 2 paladin, 15 swords bard elven double-bladed scimitar build with her boots of haste.
Here is how Miria Lathalas, chosen wielder of the Ancestral Blade of Five Seasons goes to war:
Turn 1, bonus action Holy Weapon, click boots of Haste, run in.
Turn 2 Fighting Spirit (or if another ally is flanking then natural advantage so I get to keep my bonus action attack for a total of 7 attacks). 2 attacks, hasted attacks, bonus action attack, action surge 2 more attacks for 7 attacks, but here is where it gets interesting (and crazy)
Rolling with triple advantage for each due to Elven Accuracy, averaging 2 to 3 crits over the 7 attacks (rolling 21d20 to hit total). Each hit is with Two weapon fighting style, great weapon fighting style, revenant blade feat, and great weapon master (double blade plus feat makes it a two handed finesse greatweapon) double scimitar deals 2d4, which with great weapon fighting style lets me reroll 1s and 2s so damage looks like this, assuming the average of 2 crits and all 7 hits (that is the average lol)
18d4 (10d4 for the 5 normal hits plus 4d4x2 for the crits? Rerolling low rolls)+18d8 (same formula but for Holy Weapon)+10d6 (college of swords bardic inspiration)+4d10 (use the full inspiration on the crits)+25d8 regular divine smites+20d8 from crit smites+great weapon master and stat mod for another +15 per attack for another 105 passive damage.
This is a total of 18d4+10d6+63d8+4d10+105 in a round.
This is a MINIMUM of 209 damage, assuming every single dice including rerolls rolled 1.
Theoretical max damage on this roll would be 789.
If she were to crit all 7 attacks and roll max on all her dice this would amount to over *1100* damage in a round.
And this is without any weapon enchantments.
Drop 2 levels and down to 7th level spells for Path To The Grave from taking 2 levels in Grave Domain Cleric and you could boost this even further. I didnt as it wasn't flavourful for Miria, but you absolutely could.
Even without a nova like that she has crazy average damage just from basic attacks, high AC, high mobility Counterspells, healing from her 3 classes and is still a full caster with 8th level spell slots.
Its I'd say arguably the most broken build I've ever played/devised and she's goddamn terrifying but I love her lmao (not just for the build but her backstory etc too she's just been great fun)
Fighter: Unarmed Fighting... plus Rage.... plus maxed out Strength..... plus Divine Smite..... no too low....
Okay, you inspired me to beat your number. I got 718 total. Protector Aasimar Hexblade Warlock 12, Paladin 2, Grave Cleric 4, fighter 2. You would need two actions in combat to activate, but essentially you activate your Radiant Soul and cast a Hexblade’s curse on your target as your first action. Next action you do Action >>Channel Divinity: Path to the Grave | Bonus Action >>>Banishing Smite | Action Surge | Action >>> Booming Blade. So assuming you get your Crit on a 19 or 20, that becomes:
4d6 Slashing from a Greatsword (24 max)
8d8 Radiant from Divine Smite (64)
12d8 Force from Eldritch Smite (96)
10d10 Force From Banishing Smite (100)
6d8 Thunder from Booming Blade (48)
+1 for Improved Pact Weapon
+5 Charisma Modifier
+6 Profiency Bonus from Curse
+5 Necrotic from Lifedrinker
+20 Radiant from Radiant Soul(Total of +37)
(24+64+96+100+48+37=359)x2PoG
For a grand total of 718 damage and one dead Tarrasque!
Oh and as a bonus if for some reason it can still move it takes another 8d8 thunder
@@ralphderbyshire6393 Yeah I totally missed adding in the booming blade cantrip in my initial edit of the video, which drives me insane.
But adding in a racial boost would definitely help quite a bit.
I really enjoyed this concept, I don’t really run Clerics often so I had never thought to do Path of the Grave before this. This guy is gonna make my DM scream.
That look ridiculously funny and awesome! What would be your level progression? Just curious
Random Bald PC: alright MAX damage!
Asmodeus: These mortals are getting out of hand.
Before One Punch man was a thing I made him in Pathfinder 1E with a monk warrior build haha.
So exactly that build I mentioned at the beginning LOL
@@dndbuilds Yeah. But in pathfinder it got kind of dumb and without criting I could have my character hit around 250 damage. It was a mess of a build to make but would have been a lot of fun to do.
I am definitely going to use this against my DM
After you one shot a massive enemy, just say "DnD Builds sends his regards"
@@dndbuilds he's going to be glaring at me the entire time because one time I made a stealth build I can't remember what it was and my character had hot pink hair and outfit and yet I was still sneaking past everyone
@@dndbuilds by the way I challenge you to make a stealth build that can sneak past everything no matter what the character looks like
@@chibiusa2018 challenge accepted, can you think of a pop culture character who I might be able to reference for the video?
@@dndbuilds I literally can't think of one...
So What if my dm doesnt allow triple multiclassing only 2?
also is it possible for you to make a unarmed only version of a one punch?
could you make a high level one
and a low level version, or like a progression level version so we can follow it as we level up
what if you used magic items?
that could boost the damage several times over
Absolutely!!!
Please do garou from opm
Have you done Jason Asano from "He who fights monsters"?
I've read most of the series, but doing a video about the characters a little difficult since there's not any visual media to go along with it
Can I get a 'Rango' build
You can’t take eldritch smite because it has a level 5 prereq
Yeah, the final nine and nine with two extra levels still works, but I did screw up my eldrogen vocations in this video as well as one or two other videos of mine because I interpreted the rules incorrectly, but I did add a note in my comment on the videos
Um actually you can't one shot the aspect of Tiamat and the Aspect of Bahamet because when they are reduced to zero hitpoints, they recharge to about 500 because they are a Mythic creature, and the damage would still carry over causing them to be at around 400 health.
So basically what im seeing is immortality and infinte power
If you're able to kill every enemy before they even have a chance to act, then there's nothing that can stop you, so yes I would say it's pretty much immortality and infinite power lol
I'm not seeing the 302 max damage on the warlock 9 rogue 9 cleric 2, I keep getting only 284 at max, where is the 16 I am missing?
Saitama dont one punch everything so not one stabbing the terrasque still sort of makes sense...in a way.
Hey I am trying to make a dead pool build is there anything have a healing factor
The spell regeneration is awesome and makes you practically invincible. If you can get that casted on you it will do wonders. Mix that with some Second Wind from the Fighter class, are some good options for healing, while still focusing mainly on being a martial class. Another option would be the monk way of the long death, they take an insane amount of time to die because anytime they go to zero hit points they can instead go to one hit point thanks to their ki.
@@dndbuilds thanks
@@Groovygriffin_ it's what I'm here for 😎
Champion fighter basically gets a healing factor at level 18. Although that's probably too high for you to get his other abilities maybe
What’s Saitamas alignment?
I would probably say pure neutral for the most part, he's just a hero for fun lol
Can you do Goku
Plan to do him, but I will have to do it in code, since the animation company that makes that show likes to copyright strike people into Oblivion even if they barely mention the show. So it's going to be included on an episode I just got to be sneaky about it lol
go half orc champion woot
🥑
Avocado - 1 hp, randomly has either 16 AC or 8 AC depending on Ripeness. But it's impossible to tell whether or not it's ripe until an attack roll has been made on it.
Huh this is cool but i cant underneath it._.
I can try to help however I can if you have any specific questions
I have made the 69th comment you are welcome
You have made my day 😁
Nice
Unfortunately, eldritch invocations require the specified level in warlock, not as a character. So eldritch smite without being Warlock 5 is not possible
