A work around for the DM throwing fire resistant baddies at ya is taking the Elemental Adept feat. “Spells you cast ignore resistance to damage of the chosen type. In addition, when you roll damage for a spell you cast that deals damage of that type, you can treat any 1 on a damage die as a 2.”

Archdruid is insane. You have basically permanent Subtle Spell, you can stay in Wild Shape, which you have unlimited charges of, and you can cast while in Wild Shape. Meanwhile, Sorcerers can, regain 4 Sorcery Points on a short rest and Monks regain 4 ki if they roll initiative without having any. That's, underwhelming.

Our dm is wild with what he gives us (he also throws some crazy stuff AT us so it balances out) and when he let our Druid change his subclass to wildfire, he let the Druids pet owl bear (don’t ask cause I have a pet miniature wyvern) be his wildfire spirit so now we have a flaming siege weapon.

I’m actually trying the Drakewarden Wildfire Druid multiclassed thing. Flavored it as a ranger that made pacts with two fire spirits. It’s fun and having a teleport to move the tank out of a bad spot is pretty fun. I’ve tried this build with Star Druid which leaned more into my WIS stat using the archer form so we’ll see if this is just as good

@MartinGrendele 2 ай бұрын

I love this subclass. But as a sorcerer lover, and particularly the Phoenix UA, I wish we got an official version of that instead of the way the reworked that idea into the wildfire Druid.

@sparrowfox6943 Ай бұрын

To be fair if you pick up the Elemental Adept feat, you can ignore resistance of a chosen element and treat any rolled 1 as a 2. And you can take it multiple times to add on to ignored resistances

@thekaijusleeps 2 ай бұрын

Circle of Wildfire is the Druid subclass I would be most excited to play one day 😁 also, you can always take the Elemental Adept feat to get around those fire resistances, just saying 🤷‍♂

@vampirelordx1 2 ай бұрын

While yes, fire is the most resisted damage type in game. There is a feat for that. Forget the name, but it allows you to treat a single damage type resistance as normal and immunity as resistance. But only for one damage element type. Pick this up for fire and boom, nothing will escape the cleansing flame.

I olayed a wildfire druid and its one lf my fav subclasses, iblove druids. Sadly I only played him st 3rd level. Not a one shot but I died shorgly after we started, st 3rd level we had a tpk, so I made a druid, played for a while and I shit u nkt, the day we leveled up to 4 I died. Wasnt even combat, i gambled my life with a hag or something ti try and get a buff and I got death and even curse so they couldnt rez me jajajaja That gave room to my wild magic sorcerer, who lster died psrtially cause J furebsll myself on accident and now im back a druid jajajaja tho not wildfire sadly
