So, the thing with Forbiddance is: A) Its area is not as big as you think. It *is* pretty big, but like, cover a medieval style market place big. It can cover roughly a 40x40 area if you use 5' squares. Sure, if the "dungeon" you're talking about is just a long tunnel it'll probably suffice, but it's probably not. B) Assuming you can just cover an area that you can't see with this is an... unorthodox reading of the rules. Generally speaking, if something allows you to affect things outside your line of sight the spell will say so specifically. Regardless, since you need to designate the area you'll at least need to be roughly familiar with it to be able to cover it even if your DM rules you can use it on things you can't see directly - you still need to pick the shape, which you can't really effectively do if you don't at least know the layout of the area you're trying to cover.

Plus, it's a bonus action, so if your extra worried about being too near the action, use the spell and dash action away.

There’s a reason save or die things aren’t very common anymore, because people don’t like having their beloved characters fail a single saving throw and instantly die.

A note about Bane vs. Bless. Bane as a debuff allows the enemies to make a saving throw, while Bless as a buff always works. Bane will sometimes indirectly help you maintain concentration if the enemy attacking you misses you because of the minus -1d4, but Bless will always help your concentration as it adds 1d4 to all your constitution saving throws, including concentration ones. Bane is more useful if you have a lot of other spell casters on your team. Throwing out Bane makes it more likely that your allies' other saving throw based spells will have their full effects on the enemy. If there aren't many or any full casters on the team, your best bet is always Bless instead.

If you play Curse of Strahd (which I recommend you do), Daylight is the best spell in the game.

_Aid_ isn't a spell my party has regretted at all. Our divine soul sorcerer took it as one of his spells at 3rd level and then took Inspiring Leader at 4th, so we're taking some pretty hefty hits.

"Aid is a meh spell" *Sorry I can't hear you over my party's sorcerer laughing at hits with this and false life*

"great for when the devil has you thinking gay thoughts" i spit out my root beer

Aid can be used to heal 3 allies at once with a second level spell, making it great for emergencies. The extra HP is also surprisingly useful. Holy Weapon can be used on ANYONE, not just the caster. Cast it on one of your fighters and hide in the back while they deal stupid amounts of damage.

If critical role has taught me anything it is that guiding bolt goes up the butt

HOOTS!

Stone Shape is only really useful when your party is stuck, good for breaking out of prison, breaking into prison, breaking down a medium-sized door, breaking a building's foundations, breaking one side of a massive pillar, breaking into a sealed tomb/sarcophagus. Though it doesn't give enough breaking for a 4th level spell, just carry a pickaxe with you instead. With Holy Weapon, it never said it had to be your weapon, you can choose your Barbarians axe, your fighter's crossbow, your rogue's dagger. It's a support spell that lets you do damage by proxy. You might even be able to stick it on an artificer turret. Conjure Celestial might as well be "conjure coatl", which isn't so bad since coatls have shapeshifting abilities so you can have a weretiger to help out or drop an elephant on your enemies, it has a decent amount of healing spells as well which is good. Though the only other creatures it can summons(without any additional homebrewing or books etc) are Pegasi and Unicorns(on spell level 9), which are good if you just need a good mount for an hour.

Hero’s feast stacks with the aid spell. Can also stack with temp hitpoints.

Just thinking of Merel Highchurch through this whole thing.

If you want Spare the Dying to be a good spell, but don't want to play a grave cleric, take a feat that let's you cast Find Familiar (either Magic Intiate or Ritual Casting). It gives the spell a longer range as your familiar can cast spells with a range of touch. Or play a sorcerer (or take the meta magic feat) and take distant spell.

Aid is one of the best things to do with your fourth level spell slots since you might only use one on a death ward or a banishment, 15 extra health for 3 people is a whole extra attack most of the time. Which is like a death ward on 3 people! It’s quite good. Also: spiritual weapon: not just for your own weapon. Give it to the fighter and laugh

The UA Class Feature Variants allows you to swap out cantrips on level up for some classes (like cleric) and on a long rest for others (like bard, which actually changes is from "on level up" to "on long rest" as well). It's one of the UA sheets that's actually pretty good and I recommend everyone look it over. Now, criticism: Healing Word is both a ranged spell and a bonus action, meaning you can still cast a cantrip to pew pew someone or smack someone upside the head with your weapon or anything else that takes up an action that isn't a 1st level or higher spell. Meanwhile, Cure Wounds *IS A TOUCH SPELL*, so as great as it is, unless you're right up in the front lines with that barbarian buddy of yours or in the back with some damaged glass cannons and not *the opposite of those examples like a lot of parties end up being* (oh hey all caster party guess I'll be melee cleric OH WAIT). So take Healing Word. Gentle Repose halts the decay of a corpse for 10 days, not only preventing reanimation through necromancy, but the actually useful *extending the time limit for your resurrection spells*. Oh hi there Revivify, how ya doin? What's that? You have to be cast on someone within *ONE MINUTE* of them dying? No problem! Oh wait I don't have 300gp worth of diamonds on me. Oh well good friend guess we'll have to let you die because we definitely don't have the money to pay someone for a resurrection if we can't afford the diamonds for Revivify. BUT WAIT! GENTLE REPOSE! Okay good now we have 10 days to get back to town, buy a diamond, and resurrect you without a Matt Mercer Resurrection Challenge. Critical Role's "You can reply to this message" is the "Message" cantrip. Sending has taught me that you have to use up all 25 words, even if it's with "doo do do doo do do do." Contagion. Okay, so, there's a lot of shit with this spell. First of all, the spell description listed was changed some time ago, it no longer afflicts the target with the diseases immediately, it poisons them and only after failing 3 saving throws does it get a disease. This essentially means you have to wait up to 6 turns for this *5TH LEVEL SPELL SLOT* to be useful and there's a chance that it just wont be at all. Yes, the payout of Slimy Doom would make it worth it if it works, but there are much better 5th level spells that actually guarantee something happening that you're better off taking. This is, in essence, a bad guy spell for the DM to panic their players. Alternatively, you can use it to potentially make a monster use up some legendary resistances, and not give a fuck about the diseases, which would be the smarter plan of attack with this spell. Geas. Davy. Is this a troll list? It's a minute casting time, you're not using this in combat, and anyone even thinking you're casting a spell on them is going to deck you in the snoz before you can finish it (fun fact, "you must maintain your concentration while doing it" is mentioned for longer cast times in the basic rules, meaning you gotta roll concentration if you wanna keep casting that potentially TEN ROUND CAST). Unless you're going to have your party hold them down for a minute, why are you bothering? Specific cases, yes this is good, but 3 davys? Come on. It's only 5d10 psychic damage if it disobeys you ONCE A DAY, so it just has to tell you to piss off once, deal with that migraine, and then just go do their own thing while giving you the middle finger because they can't attack you while charmed but that's pretty much it. Holy Weapon. USE IT ON OTHER PEOPLE. Find the Path. Never had that DM who liked labyrinths or the Lost Woods from The Legend of Zelda, huh? "Familiar with" is loose terminology up for interpretation, other spells that use the wording have charts that give definitions to help with the DC, so in this it's DM's choice. Also, DMs, keep in mind that the shortest route isn't always the safest. Heroes' Feast. Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize Goodberry made you immune to poison (not the condition, IN GENERAL, D&D Beyond specifically doesn't link the condition for that reason, fuck your green dragons) and gave you advantage on all wisdom saving throws all while giving you an increased max hp of 2d10 FOR 24 HOURS. This is a prep spell for big fights. If you know you're about to fight a green dragon or a lich and it's something you could have done before your long rest to get the spell slot back and your reason for not using this spell is anything other than not having the material component or not having it prepared before the long rest and not wanting to use up the slot after the rest, then i hope you enjoy poison damage and fear! Word of Recall. Yeah, it's great, unless you worship a god that doesn't have a place dedicated to it anywhere nearby. Granted, there's no distance limit, but when you learn you just teleported halfway across the world and your means of making travel faster is now half a world away, you start wondering if it would have been just better to TPK. Also, completely useless if you worship someone who isn't going to have anything like a shrine to them, because fuck you Death Clerics. Actually, on that note, DMs, remember this spell exists, but be prepared for counterspell.

just as a note, Gate is useful for bringing other things to a place where you have home field advantage to fight it. like it doesnt just take you places, if brings things from places to you. useful for if you wanna wear down a super powerful thing with something else slightly less powerful but better than doing it yourself. also useful if you are tasked with beating something and dont know where to find it, or for whatever reason dont want to go to where you can find it, to fight it. granted you will have to know said creature's name so it takes SOME planning /set-up, but still, its useful if you know you will need it, though you should never take it if you dont know you are gonna need it.

Best thing about Spirit guardians? It allowed you to exploit a loophole where if you cast it first, then cast sanctuary afterwards, any damage dealt doesn’t cause sanctuary to drop, but it keeps you relatively protected from the target painted on your back.

@alanhodgson9421

3 жыл бұрын

This was errated in 2018; any damaging activity including Spirit Guardians, breaks Sanctuary.

Wasnt expecting the NSP reference! Hell yeah!

Life transference is actually really strong on a life cleric. They get more healing out of it and, if they play mid line, can almost negate that downside at 6th level since theyll just heal themselves when they cast it and on subsequent heals.

It is worth considering that Gate can also summon creatures you know the true names of and, provided your DM is cool with it, can be used as a lesser divine intervention.

Astral Projection does have a niche in that Gate has to be allowed by the DM in many cases, and Plane Shift needs a tuning fork which may or may not be easy to get, whereas Astral Projection lets you use the Astral Plane to go anywhere in the planes. Problem is it takes an hour to cast (not everyone has that much patience and it makes it useless in combat unlike Plane Shift and Gate), is super-expensive which makes it almost a one-time thing, and the githyanki silver swords, astral dreadnoughts and psychic winds in the Astral Plane having the potential to insta-kill you, all come together to encourage you to bite the bullet and hunt down that 250gp tuning fork.

Good list I'm hoping to play my first 5e cleric soon.

You can use Gate to open a portal 20ft in diameter and 60 ft high to the plane of magma (aka the Fountains of Creation, at the intersection of the planes of fire and earth). By my calculations, that’s over 18.5 million tons of molten rock. By some of the rules they’ve given us, that would deal about 18d10 fire damage and 6d20 bludgeoning damage (if you change die size for object weight with fall damage).

Aid. It's like healing word, but it targets 3 people and stacks with temporary hit points. Basically, it's what you want to do with mass healing word at a lower level. It also scales up better.

Wow, great video. I feel like I'm going to get a lot of use out of this video.

I like hero’s feast and while I agree to 2 chappies, my only complaint is that It somehow consumes the bowl? There aren’t really that many ways to increase your maximum it points that don’t count as temporary hit points. And wisdom save advantage on everybody is really nice for some fights.

I don't know who else needs to know this but: That song is this song: Gloryhammer, "The Fires Of Ancient Cosmic Destiny"

Good on you with the PowerWolf

You had me with the Powerwolf *subscribes*

Heroes' Feast also grants immunity to the frightened condition. Since Frightful Prescence often comes with big AOE attacks or legendary/lair actions, this spell lets a party tackle the biggest threats with in-game and irl confidence since you don't have to bunch up around the paladin.

Holy Aura is a great spell. It grants everyone in a 30 foot range which is fireball range. Disadvantage on all attacks against your party and advantage on all saving throws and just for kicks it makes undead and fiends make a Con save or be blinded. It is stupid good and makes the party almost unhittable. Which if you are playing a Life Cleric like myself it your job to keep the party alive. This spell does a great job at doing this.

Aid is definitely still a viable option if you need your beefcakes slightly beefier. Seriously, pop it onto a barbarian, and all those hitpoints suddenly have double the value because of resistances. And a level 5 aid will allow your rogue or monk to tank the average damage of a Fireball, even on a failed save. Also it can be healed back up with healing spells, which is icing on the cake.

I never knew I needed Davvy singing Powerwolf in my life until now

I freaking love your hints to powerwolf's best song hahaha

7:32 range of touch means you can buff the fighter/paladin/barbarian’s weapon instead of yours, if they’re in trouble nuke their weapon so you can bail them out without getting nuked.

kind of interesting that many cleric dominions have the ability to add your wisdom mod to cantrip damage, yet there is only one cleric cantrip that does damage in the base book (that matters in my case, since my gm only permits base book)

HELL YESSSS GLORYHAMMER I AM SO HYPED RN I DID NOT EXPECT THAT AAAAA

Holy Weapon is fantastic because you can give it to somebody else - somebody that has extra attack(s). I'm not at that level yet in my campaign, but I plan on giving it to the Fighter. At level 11 (one level after I get Holy Weapon because I started off with a 1 level dip in Sorcerer), he'll be doing three attacks each turn, six when he does action surge.

Yo Davvy, Aid does have a use, it is an action to increase maximum and *current* hitpoints by 5 for up to 3 creatures within 30 feet of you. This has no rules for it not working when at 0. So essentially 3 weakish healing words as 1 action if your team gets hit by an area, which it then acts as a minor buff for 8 hours. It can be upcasted which might be useful if you have 3 party members that are pretty squishy like a sorcerer and a wizard and another sorcerer, and you know the party is going to take damage (dragon fight). There are better buff spells that one can do instead, but quick triple pick me up, and increased hp for 8 hours on 3 people with no concentration is fairly good. I say it deserves two davvys or three davvys. It is especially good on Paladins who have multiple party members down, especially the healer.

8:41 I didn't know what Gloryhammer was when I first saw this video. I have since found enlightenment, and rewatching it now that I've heard their entire discography, this bit made my eyes light up with pure joy.

Aid can be upcast, lasts for 8 hours with no Concentration, and stacks with Temporary Hit Points since it's raising your max, not adding THP.

What was the song used for Conjure Celestial? I love it but I can't think of the name

does anyone know which glory hammer song was used during conjure celestial?

I thought of a system that I think would be a good way to fix concentration by adding a 3rd inbetween concentration and no concentration called focus where it’s concentration but without the possibility of losing it by taking damage idk it needs work but basically you have the 1 concentration and the 1 focus but you can cast two focus spells and putting one of them into the concentration slot idk I’m just spitballing

Best ad ever.

If more than one person is touching you does Death Ward activate on all of them?

That's a lot of power wolf.

Re: Guardian of Faith. If used in combat with spell casters, how would one work out how much damage it could take before it would be killed off? I understand if this is too oblivious to answer.
