I know there is a little tension between your DnD fans and your BG3 fans, but I do want to let you know your BG3 builds really helped me a lot with understanding the game and basic 5e mechanics. I still reference those builds to this day. Don't sell these short I'm sure they're helping a lot of people

@NAHS1493 8 ай бұрын

Tension?! That’s annoying. I’m both and I second this. I went from a week of understanding 3 levels to multiple builds in the bank and greatly appreciate the help. If I JUST did the BG3 stuff in 5e, I’d still be ok. Love this channel lol

@@beastslayer8729 There is. If you look at the comment section on some posts there's a little divide. One side says this has always been a DnD channel and BG3 is a fad and not worth the time, and the other have no clue what DnD is about (and want to know) and his BG3 content was the first gateway to experiment. BG3, IMO, is quite possibly the best introduction to DnD ever created and I don't think it's a fad but a great teaching tool/game.

@beastslayer8729 8 ай бұрын

@@Enkarashaddam Thats so weird. I have always seen them as almost exactly the same game. BG3 is just my idea of virtual DND. Sure, there are quite a few rule changes, but the essence of the game is VERY evident. I can't believe people don't see that. 90% of these BG3 builds can be translated to 5e perfectly anyways.

With regards to Bg3, your videos are the only ones i watch when it comes to BG3. That said, after my 5th campaign ive been taking a break. The game has been out for a while now and i guess its normal for players to move on to the next thing. I just wanted to say its definitely not your fault this is happening. As far as im concerned, there is no channel i would rather watch than this one when it comes to BG3. Thanks man! I hope you still choose to do more bg3 in the future!

On that note, I've always thought it would be super cool to watch a stream/playthrough of him playing BG3 in a similar fashion of one that plays D&D, on character creation, talking about the character background, roleplaying accordingly to their store and alignment, etc. I think many of us would love to watch it.

There's a balance here, as I'd consider items as spoilers as they are often thematically linked to the act you are in and it's a big game that a lot of people are still working their way through.

There are less than you'd think, the item creativity and variety really dries up after ACT1 😢 and then there is that spoiler aspect as well that was already mentioned However, some full builds with items built around the 2 heavily themed elemental item mechanics: Heat and Lightning charges could be great fun to watch and try out 🤔

I hope you can keep producing your BG3 builds. I was already a subscriber before BG3 and will be a viewer no matter what, but right now BG3 is taking up all of my CRPG time. Your takes make fun viewing. Monks are the best martial class in BG3, and that’s in a game where all classes and subclasses can shine. I always like a Bard, and I’m enjoying seeing some love for martial bards. They’re the closest you can get to the F/M/T of my youth.

I personally would enjoy modded character builds as I play on PC, but I understand that many people do not. So it's a question of interest for yourself and your audience. So count at least 1 vote for an artificer build!

Thank you for all your excellent videos, Colby! A note on the killer bard, for those that want to play that build: there's a helmet in act two that complements it perfectly - the helmet of arcane acuity. It buffs your spell save DC with every instance of weapon damage, allowing you to land a couple off-hand hits then cast a near-unsaveable control spell in the same turn! Definitely worth going out of your way to pick it up as early as possible.

I think providing a build guide that would be involved with some mod use would be excellent (especially spellsinger), especially if you took the time to explain how you got your mod, and how you set it up, for those intimidated by mod setup, (and don't want to find other channels to learn how to do it). Keep up the great guides!

PSA for BG3 players: I recommend two items: Helmet of Arcane Acuity (Act 2) and Band of the Mystic Scoundrel (Act 3). Swords Bard can max stack the helmet turn 1, increasing Spell DC to 23, then use the ring to debilitate someone with an enchantment/illusion spell cast as a bonus action.

So I appreciate the dnd and bg3 videos. Also, yes I would love to see bg3 builds with mods.

Thank you so much for your BG3 builds. They've been incredibly helpful for someone like me who has absolutely no idea what she's doing and initially just got the game for the hungry wizard and the dashing vampire. I appreciate your explanations and reasoning for every choice. That said, the optimized companion series gave me the (over?)confidence to try a tactician run, something I really have no business attempting, but no one can stop me. So again, thank you, and I can't wait to re-spec my bard tonight

I know Colby doesn’t discuss items with his builds, but there is a helmet that really cranks the swords bard to 11 (pun intended!). The Helm of Arcane Acuity gives you 2 turns of Arcane Acuity when you hit with a weapon. You can max this out in one round, giving you a +7 to spell attack rolls and spell save DC. Perfect way to add some reliable battlefield control.

I did find your channel through BG3 but have watched many of your videos because frankly it is so "comfy" and I love the theorycrafting and format (and the lovely voice). Have been fascinated specially by your Bladesinger videos. If a full video isn't feasible for mods (them being a niche), please consider if its possible to at least a quickie guide on the Bladesinger and Artificer mods and possible multiclassing, because as we know there's enough difference between 5e and BG3 and I find myself wondering how to build them, specially Bladesinger in BG3 in a game where you can inscribe wiz spells at any level (and yes you can shadowblade booming blade!). Regardless if you keep with the BG3, you have earned a subscriber for life here!

My Tav shares quite a bit of DNA with the killer Bard. But I wanted to use a 2h bow so the Rogue Levels are instead used for Gloomstalker (extra attack on the first turn and heavy armor from Ranger Knight) I found an interesting interaction with the Banshee Bow. When you use Slashing Flourish is changes the save type to CHA. So in addition to murdering everyone all the enemies are frightened most of the time. Very fair. Quite balanced.

I got to your channel through your bg3 videos, and then dove into DnD through your channel, so I appreciate all your content. That said, I myself have gotten that itch for other 5e classes/subclsses and eventually just went down the modded route. I highly recommend it, it can be a breathetaking new way to experience the game and I feel that both bg3 and DnD fans will enjoy new crazy multiclass builds to try out

Wow, removing the armor restriction for martial arts is really such a game changer. It basically makes a two level monk dip a huge buff for any melee build

I actually found your channel from your BG3 content. Been a 5E fan/ part time player for a while and I really enjoy the theorycraft. I’m really glad you do both 5E and BG3 content I’m here for both. Def would be interested in modding and deeper BG3 content but still gonna watch your 5E vids. Glad you do what you do! I’m having a blast running Storm Shadowheart in my BG3 campaign!

love your builds, Colby. *edit* I was having trouble deciding what to do with my already-dex-archery-Fighter Tav. I went with the Killer Bard build from this video and never looked back. What an improvement. She gained utility in dialogue, power in combat, expertise in Sleight of Hand, AND spells, which she really doesn't have much use for, so it's basically a pile of slots for heals outside of combat, so Shart can just keep casting Call Lightning. She's the swiss army knife of the party. Karlach melts single big targets, Shart and Gale sling AOEs, and she does the rest, as well as melting enemies alongside Karlach. She's the trap-and-lock-picker, the talker, AND usually first in combat. Just awesome.

Found Colby by BG3 but love this channel so very much. I seriously think I will play D&D after as I just love this content. Finding it hard to watch other BG3 channels. Keep up the great work.
