Sooooo how is this class not broken again? You have a character that can build and replicate wondrous items, can enchant items permanently and apparently can make indestructible mounts. I don't think there's any remaining homebrew or UA out there that can break the game as much as this class (except maybe Mystic and Super Saiyan). Not to be that guy, but when they do stuff like this they lose players who get fed up with the game being unbalanced. They should fix the core mechanics of the game first before they go fooling around with an OP remix of the wizard.

A number of classes can start the game with sub 10hp. You don't need to have seen much 5e to realise how a 1d6+2 (that's low lvl monster damage, right?) could reduce the 6-17 hp a lvl 1 character might have to zero right quick.

I've seen it in action in one of my campaigns. It's not the numbers that make it weird, it's that certain abilities are worded in a way that makes them borked or subtly stronger. Did you know that a mystic with the restoration discipline has a revivify that has no costly components? Did you know the nomadic mind discipline can make you proficient with ANY SKILL as a bonus action? (Side note, pair that with a lvl 11 rogue for truly disgusting synergy) Note also how one discipline grants you damage against a target, guaranteed. No save, no attack, 60 ft range. They just take psychic damage. 1d8 per psi point (at level 5 that's 5d8 for 5psi out of your 27 for the day). There's also the bonus action for 2psi that reveals one monster's; current exact hp as well as all resistances, vulnerabilities and immunities of said creature. Range? "A creature you can see", no other range stipulated. Abilities like those mentioned above clearly need another pass to tone them down. Only a few are lore-wizard UA level stupid (mostly those mentioned above) but many of them have weird phrasings that make CC durations oppressively long or makes the ability considerably stronger in practice than it seems at first glance. Enough of those and it can get a little dumb. I can see how a mystic in the hands of a munchkinny player could be a nightmare for a DM. It takes a player playing it in good faith and/or being ready that DM might nerf CERTAIN abilities. TLDR: Overall the mystic isn't "BUSTED, ZOMG, WILL BREAK THE GAME LOLOLOLOL" but is due to weird wordings, and a key few abilities being a little too strong, ripe for abuse. Not super borked but ripe for abuse. That's where I put the mystic.

Ah, a perfect birthday present. Good upload Davvy!

Theoretically, with the way verbal components are actually used in spellcasting, the infusion that lets you record and play messages can let you use verbal only cantrips by itself. To simplify further, the item would play the verbal components and cast the spell. Verbal components are the specific sounds and pitches, so according to PH spellcasting section, an item could theoretically just cast something every six seconds or so if you really wanted it. Or, a non faster could utilize it for something simple.

The artificer isn't just someone who can create perminant magic items, they're someone who invests a portion of their inherent magical power into objects, say about half. Thus when they reach absolute mastery they can retract that magic back to themselves and expend it to save their own lives.

Love how you snuck in that Steam Powered Giraffe pic! 💯🤖

I have an alchemist character who mainly fights using a dart gun, the darts of which are usually either filled with poison of alchemist fire for injection into the lungs/bloodstream.

As someone who greatly enjoys playing a Paladin or a Hexblade a Battle Smith Artificer sounds right up my alley.

Just bought the book, so perfect timing bro

I wasnt going to Infuse bedroom toys, but you really inspired me, thanks

I enjoyed how many FMA pictures were in this

As artificer (I checked with my DM) I could make powerful weapons at the price of them being cursed such as the "cutting fate" this sword *WILL* kill the wielder somehow someway this sword will kill that player the only way to make it's effect come to light is killing the previous wielder the effect is it ignores all amour. I call this type the "Cross-roader".

im loving this class,im currently playing a Warforge artificer (battlesmith) in my friend's skyrim campaign ... the only thing that disappoints me is the fact that there is a total limit to infused items that can exist at a time,even if its given to somonis else...which makes my plans of becoming a merchant very hindered. the fun thing about being warforged is just putting armor infusions on yourself.

Pretty much share the excitement for Eberron...I love westerns and noir. The artificer provides countless character customization...a warforged Battlesmith who grew lonely with their existence and crafted a Iron Defender dog to be their friend...a desperado Artillerist who specialty is robbing trains...a dwarven bartender Alchemist who brews special beers and beverages to bestow their power, and is raising money to build "the best Damn bar in Eberron!"...a vigilante Batman-esque artificer whose gadgets serve as their utility belt... So many options. Love it.

YESSSS Good references excellent class *very* attractive Davvy and we are a happy chappy today!

The Artillerist, for the people whose favorite song is The 1812 Overture! Love it! Want it!

I love that you used character pics from Red Dragon Inn!

Thank you for this! Made my day!

One of my new favourite things i made is an Arcane trickster Rogue, Alchemist Artificer Multi class. They work very well together because there are finally two INT based classes that can fit together. Also as a Variant Human with the Skilled feat you have 10 proficiencies and a really diverse spell selection. Also sneak attack.

since artillerist's guns can be size 'tiny' one of the best tricks i found was gluing (i flavoured it as having magical electromagnet) force field cannon to my fighter's back armor, and then healing him, barbarian, and monk every turn for free they NEVER got even close to dying, since they were always in the front lines, usually close enought to get boosted

I just built a multiclassed artificer/rogue for my first ever character. The group I am joining is already at 6th level so I was allowed to join at that level as well. I went 3/3 arcane trickster/battle smith. The utility and extra spells that would otherwise be unavailable, as well as ability to cast certain spells as rituals are nice. I intend to take artificer to 5th level to get the extra action and then take the arcane trickster the rest of the way.

I'm playing a warforged artificer.

Is Alchemist viable? I love playing healer however it feels super limited in resources. No extra attack, half caster so less spell slots and cantrips than normal, class ability that expends said limited spell slots, nothing for your bonus action aside from spells (See the theme here?). It’s so reliant on spells without the amount of spell slots for it to be viable. Someone pls send me an awesome build and change my mind, an alchemist seems awesome and I want it to thrive!!!

That also specialized in lightning spells, and had a huge emphasis on stealth and just being able to leave combat if it felt things werent going well. Still feels awkward fighting with a dagger and shield tho

Necromancer and artificer are the combo of dms horror

In my groups Curse of Strahd Campaign, I am playing an Artilerist Artificer. My character's Back story is that a demon kidnapped his family when he was a kid and that if he ever wanted his family back, he should come find him. So naturally little Dean Arccos joins the circus and learns how to be an artificer by apprenticing under the firework's maker and mechanical engineer (think steam punk circus). And since my character would have been making friends with some of the acrobats I added acrobatics and slight of hand as skill proficients. My top three stats are Int, dex, and con with wis and charisma taking hits as my dump stats. My character doesn't talk much, and when he does he has a nervous stutter. Except when in combat against creatures of the night. Super fun to roleplay

By the way, one of the most broken battle smith things I just discovered is when you take the spell Lightning Lure. If that target 15 ft away fails its save, it takes 1d8 (2d8 at PC level 5 which is important for later) thunder damage and gets pulled 10 ft towards you (now melee range). At level 5, you get an extra attack so you can bonk it on the head with your infused weapon (which uses what should be a really high Int modifier). And if that’s not enough, make sure your Steel Defender is right next to you and use that bonus action for another attack from it. Oh, and that Steel Defender can impose disadvantage on the target’s attack against you as a reaction, so you’ll be nice and safe from whatever enemy you bring your way. And keep in mind, this is something you can do at level 5 with a CANTRIP. FYI

Kind of homebrewed an Artificer into a gunslinger. She fired her cantrips out of a custom made lever action style "rifle" (she loves to tinker, and had grenades for certain other things. The rifle could chamber three shells that she kept in a bag of holding that I had to roll a d6 when I wanted to reload to decide how many she pulled out of her bag (a natural one meant she dropped them on the floor, a 6 was a perfect reload that only cost a bonus action), and each shell could be a different cantrip. The method to build the rifle was one of her most closely guarded secrets, and because she was cursed with a desire to learn as much knowledge as possible and keep as many secrets as possible for herself no one else knows how to make the damn thing or the ammo. Kind of fun going around town asking for random useless materials to make her shells though.

I always look twords your vids since any other vids (besides JoCats) confuse me since they complicate me or my brain be small so thanks for summing things up

Outside combat, the artillerist heals anyone in range for 60D8 over an hour. It's far more broken than even the healing spirit that required forming a conga line through it. It's a clunky class with a lot going on for a new player but still powerful in inexperienced hands. For a knowledgeable player it's an absolute monster

I freaking love it too!!!!

Now the classes are complete. Oh Lordy....

The fact that i saw RDI and Elsword images both makes me sad and happy at the same time.

I like to flavor cannons as weapon mods for a crossbow or something. My favorite is making a shotgun with the flamethrower

Can't wait for the psionics subclasses video

Found the perfect class for my character idea

I'm playing a dwarf artificer battle smith that later multi-class into fighter so I'm just running around in heavy armor with an AC of like 24 and I can't be touched. And it just so happens that having the clan crafter background and being a dwarf allows you to have all kinds of tool proficiencies so I literally make EVERYTHING for the party now.

I think you missed the best part about this class tbh. The little box for artificer spellcasting points out that you're not casting spells in the traditional manner, a wrench isn't a wand or anything like that, no no, you're using MAGITEK. Healing word? More like throwing a "potion" onto someone. Fireball? Grenade or a bomb. Firebolt? I mean that's just a gun. Mending can literally be just using your tools to repair something, or going the TF2 route of smacking it with your wrench and it's magically repaired. This class allows your imagination to flow like no other when it comes to just how you go about using your spells and I love it. You could even go the South Park route of just using an aerosol spray with a lighter for Burning Hands. Boots of Jumping are just springs in the heels and Boots of Speed turn into skates. Change my mind. Also, the Artillerist's turret can not only HAVE LEGS AND MOVE AROUND, but it can be tiny, to the point the book says it can fit in your hand. Your bonus action "turret" can literally just be a gun, or small flamethrower, or handheld forcefield generator thing.

I'm gonna love playing this class when my book arrives. RIP Archivist, though. ;^;
