Shadow blade build how to#

I did some math and found some interesting results when it comes to damage at this level.īonus Action, Shadow Blade 3rd level (3d8)īonus Action, Spiritual Weapin 3rd level (2d8)Įssentially making it from second round and on that if you hit you are consistently doing 8d8+17 damage and that is without smiting or using absorb elements.Īll in all this is the base of my build. I feel as though Aganazzar's Scorcher & Burning Hands could be swapped out for something else such as false life or misty step, etc. Shield, Absorb Elements, Shadow Blade, Aganazzar's scorcher, & Burning hands. In terms of spell for Sorcerer it would be: Metamagic: Quicken and Empower (due to low DC, want to max damage in case or saves) Which in terms of spell slots is 4, 3, 3, 1. This character won't wear armor and will rely on the natural armor of DS which is 13+DEX= 18 + 2 (shield)= 20.Īt this level you are considered a lvl 7 caster. Lvl 10 ( Conquest Paladin 6/ Draconic Sorcerer 4) This is a Red Dragon Ancestor Draconic Sorcerer.

The build I made is for lvl 10 to show borderline tier 2/3 ability.

Also, I wanted to throw some extra flavor into this build and use the natural armor provided by draconic sorcerer. Now you can use AT or EK paired with Sorcerer, but I wanted to focus on paladin in this build.

The build I came up with though is a sorcerer/paladin. Keep in mind this build is for a possible character in AL, so must follow those rules.

I've finally come up with a build and wanted to share it with you guys and see what your thoughts are and getting feedback on how to better improve this build. So, for a while now I've been trying to come up with a build that uses shadow blade as the staple to the character.
