This gives you +5' reach, +1d4 damage on attacks, and advantage on strength checks. Potions of growth give you the enlarge spell effect without concentration for 1d4 hours each.

Artificer wizard 2 lets you convert 1st level spell slots into potions of growth.

Ranger gives you access to medium armor and shields, letting you have 19 AC.īeyond level 5, the build can go a couple different ways: With the stats you rolled, variant human lets you start with 11 str, 14 dex, 15(16) con, 13 int, 15(16) wis, 9 cha.

and you still have access to your utility wild shapes for those days when you aren't in combat constantly. The character plays somewhat like a magical barbarian except you can use your spell slots to heal/control/etc. (plus an additional 2d8 thunder damage if the target moves) When not using symbiotic entity, this drops to 3d8+2+wis force and 3 poison damage. This lets you combine shillelagh, booming blade, symbiotic entity, planar warrior, halo of spores, dueling fighting style, and your familiar for an attack with advantage that deals 3d8+1d6+2+wis force damage and an auto-hit attack that deals 6 poison damage. I used that feat to grab find familiar, booming blade, and light. The last spore druid I played was: variant human spore druid 2/horizon walker ranger 3 w/ magic initiate(wizard) as my vhuman feat. (the single most common resistance/immunity in the game) The way I like to overcome this is by adding 3 levels of horizon walker ranger to your build. I got decent rolls of 15 15 14 13 11 9.Spore druid's primary issue is that it deals poison damage. Oh, we rolled stats and typically we recycle them as we roll new characters. My current character is a warlock, but as I said I don't expect her to live too long. The party make-up is at present a rogue, a wizard, a bard, an undecided and myself. What I'm wondering is whether to go spore druid 2/monk x (probably drunken master for the fun of a dude fermenting his brews with his druid-mould) or paladin 2/spore druid x. To that end, I'm already preparing for that eventuality and thought maybe this would be a good time to give the spore druid a whirl. As has become practically a tradition, I fully expect my first character to die within the first three sessions.

So, my group is starting curse of strahd finally and we've begun rolling up characters.
