    Durge player here. You get the deathstalker after your Durge kills a bard beyond your control. You may keep the item and go resist Durge and be a good character if you wish. You don&apos;t have to commit to an evil run to get it.

    i know this video is a little older but anyone looking to d a radiant orb cleric build should look into 2 star druid and 10 light cleric

    Wait, no Open Hand monk with Tavern Brawler and elixir of Cloud Giant strength? I guess it is too mainstream now lol!

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNcTzMsWSV4&amp;t=1300">21:40</a> To CLARIFY. You&apos;ll get the last point in CHARISMA, if you choose SPARE THE HAG, in ACT 1 story mode.

    I love the radiating orb build so much. Enemies being completely shut down by your sheer overpowering aura is always so funny, especially when you take out your weapon and just blind the entire room like you are a walking sun. Only downside is the few enemies in the game that have radiant retort/backlash damage and you have to swap up a bit just for those few encounters.

    Have to shout out, I have a Dex based Battlemaster in IRL DnD right now. Between Alert feat, his high Dex and the Ambush maneuver, I essentially ALWAYS decide who goes first in combat 😂 once rolled for Ambush in a critical fight and had a +14 to initiative 😅 being able to let your primary caster be the first to act every fight is pretty nuts

    I like how every class combination is called OP in this game.

    2 levels of paladin for divine smite. <br>2 level of hexblade warlock for more spell slots. <br>3 levels of sorc for spells/metamagic<br>5 levels cleric for spirit guardians. <br><br>use the radiant/reverb equipment. Luminous helm/armor callous glow ring. <br><br>you get hex curse with lowers crit, orc lowers crit, other equipment lowers crit. <br><br>using war priest you can get extra attacks. <br><br>your spirit guardians proc orbs, your attacks proc orbs, your divine smite procs orbs. and with all ur spell slots, and no spells you need to use them for, you can proc divine smite every attack.

  • @stormywaters1565 · 8 months ago

    These 5 builds are def good but Shadow Blade Eldritch Knight and the tried and true Open Hand Monk are the two most powerful builds in game imo. &nbsp;Honorable mention to Shadow Blade Bladesinging Wizard using Band of the Mystic Scoundrel since it can rack up 8 stacks of acuity with just two attacks and then unleash a control spell with a 30+ spell save dc. &nbsp;Either way tho the most powerful builds either do psychic damage and abuse Resonance Stone or take advantage of how broken the Tavern Brawler trait is.

  • @crofoegbu6535 · 8 months ago

    Paladin 2/Bladesinger 10 and Abjuration Wizard Retaliator (White Draconic Sorcerer 4/Tempest Cleric 2/Abjuration Wizard 6) surely deserve honorable mentions

  • @barcster2003 · 8 months ago

    Light cleric. Yeah that was obvious because they get attack spells.
