I appreciate the synergies you put together in this build. Normally multiclassing this much can cause issues, but I think it works and it's different!

Really cool build. Encompasses a lot of witcher variant builds I've made throughout the years for each school. For those, I often stick to one class and created at level 5, and it brings up a lot of opportunities to flavour different spells as various expressions of the signs. For Yrden I've used Faerie Fire (for early Swords Bard or Blade Warlock builds), and Slow (for Bladesinger, but available for Sorcerer as well). Regardless, would you mind posting or linking the finished character sheet for this build? Definitely subscribing for future contents.

@@cmccbuilds8229 I see your point. Starting with HB Warlock is the base for cantrips and proficiency. Most camp. are for 1-5 levels, so depending on your DM and party, need to focus on just one or two multiclass more closed to player style. Thats why E.k or paladin are second BEST to boost the combat

I'm trying to understand why at level 4 (Paladin 2), you can only have 4 spells prepared. Isn't supposed to be your Charisma modifier (4) + half your Paladin level (2/2 = 1), so at the level, it would be 5? I'm trying out this build in my campaign and I'm a bit confused. I'm also considering if taking 1 or 2 more levels of Warlock is worth it for the Invocations and the Pact of the Blade. I know I'm a bit late for that, but please note that I'm adding my vote for a follow up video on how to convert Witcher items (potions and bombs) into D&D equivalents.

I would personally look for spells that fit the bombs as best as possible - there are a surprising number of analogs between 5E spells and witcher3 bombs. Home brew would be required for any others and the details depend entirely on the type of Bomb.

I believe ranger, fighter or even rogue make way more sense to what actually makes a witcher in a thematic scenario, ranger being my first choice of class with eldritch knight being a close second. If there is one class that I believe makes absolute 0 sense it would be warlock, there is nothing in witcher lore that indicates that their power comes from any sort of pact or other entity. Paladin I believe can be argued in the sense that Witchers have to stick to a set of rules they have to stick to as they stick to the path. Sorcerer is a reach but I guess it sort of makes sense. Just make a ranger with druid spellcasting or defense fighting style or a level dip in druid or just go full fledged eldritch knight.

@@cmccbuilds8229 ok ill do it with ranger. Canny: lets you grab expertise in an ability, perception for his crazy senses. Druid spellcasting: igni with produce flames, aard with gust, ensnaring strike for a similar effect to yrden but this can be changed later, axii and the other sign can be picked up as a 1 level dip into wizard with shield and charm person for it. Those are most of the abilities of a witcher there, if you want potion making and all that its up to your background.

Direct quote from the Command spell description: "The spell has no effect ... if your command is directly harmful to it." This means that your "command a flying creature to grovel" tactic would simply not work. A monster that cannot hover would simply ignore the spell since dropping its speed to zero would be immediately and directly harmful to it. Sleep at level 9 is a *TERRIBLE* idea, even for a single level. Even minions at this level are going to be all but completely unaffected by it, and there must be something more useful than this spell that's still thematic. Otherwise I like the build. It's not exactly optimized, but it certainly does reflect the Witcher's multitude of skills, traits and "magical" abilities faithfully.
@cmccbuilds8229
Жыл бұрын
Disagree about part 1. You’re not commanding it to hurt itself, and there is no reason to assume the fall will hurt it. It can be flying at 9 feet off the ground for example. It will be indirectly hurt above 9 feet, not directly. and sleep at 9 is necessary for the build. The goal is accuracy not optimization.

For more simple build, just take a human bard of valiant school to specialise him in 2 hands weapon or duelist if you prefer to hold it in one hand. Bard spells are just like witcher spell. Easy and simple. Also they are good with what geralt have in game. The witcher use magic as a support for his sword play. Tho for realy sticking to a witcher power level, you would need at least 18 in For, Dex, Con, 16 in Cha (to launch spells) and 14 in Int and Sag.
