Oath of Conquest "I feel no responsibility to comrades who've lost lives under my command. Because they chose to fight in each battle.. Just as I chose this. But if there is something that... I can do for them. Something I can do for the dead... Then it is to win! I must keep winning to attain my dream. The same one they clung to, and risked their lives for!! To realize my dream, I will perch on top of their corpses.. It is a blood-smeared dream, after all. I don't regret or feel guilty about it.. But to risk thousands of lives while never getting myself dirty. It's not a dream that can be so easily realized!" - Griffith

Mongol General: This is good, but what is best in life? Mongol: The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair. Mongol General: Wrong! Conan! What is best in life? Conan: To crush your enemies. See them driven before you. And to hear the lamentations of their women. Mongol General: That is good! That is good. Maybe not the most accurate depiction but it's what I imagine every time I hear the name Oath of Conquest.

It would be really cool to play as an oath of conquest paladin who had intents on asserting dominance over barbarian tribes infamous for raiding and destroying small villages. The paladin could call out the leader of the tribe and just say "No more" as he vanquishes the creature and gains the title of chieftain for himself before leading the tribe into a new peaceful era of harmony with civilization

@TheRayny6 жыл бұрын
Oathbreakers are, by definition, evil. They broke the most sacred thing for them and that made them delusional. A conquest oathbreaker basically it's just a rebel that want an order to collapse down with any mean. I see what you mean (" the evil empire is killing innocents, the paladin can't stand by it" ) but since the paladin was so vowed to that it can't just simply drop it. Dropping it means losing the will to live basically. I would rather allow a specialization swap, with due time, to a more stereotipically good-aligned oath after the paladin seeks redemption, instead of falling to oathbreaker.
@witchBoi_Connor5 жыл бұрын
That would probably be an oath of redemption unfortunately. I wish that you could spin an oath breaker as good, but they’ve unfortunately planted it into evil much too firmly.

In all honesty, I love the Oath of Conquest the most out of all Paladin oaths in 5e.

The Oath of Conquest, in my opinion, makes for very interesting, multi-dimensional characters, moreso than most other oaths.

She followed bahamut for many years after that serving him. OIne day she grew tired of serving him and wished to be free. Asmodeus saw this and offered her freedom in exchange For her to attack Bahamut. She took this deal that atemted to attack Bahamut. She failed and was hunted into exial. After returning to Asmodeus now with the lose of her left arm he gave her an arm of a monster and banished her to the material plane as well as making her a Fallen Angle. Now she romes the world enjoying her freedom and causeing caos in Asmodeus's name.

I was thinking about this, and I feel that I've come to the most plausible conclusion. The conquest Paladin seems to be the "I uphold the law at all cost, even if it means breaking it myself" kind of Paladin. So, as long as the Thief is more useful to the Paladin (as any Rogue should be capable of) as an ally, they have nothing to fear. And the moment the usefulness ends, the sneaky-sneak their way outta that show.
