Well, let me tell ya about this Tavern Brawler Barbarian, huh? It’s a real tough cookie, I tell ya! First thing ya gotta know is, this class ain’t just about swinging a big ol’ axe or something. Nah, it’s all about using your fists and anything around ya, like a chair or a tankard, ya know?
Now, if ya wanna build a proper Tavern Brawler, ya gotta think about strength. That’s the heart of it. So, best get that strength up from the start. I hear folks say that if ya start with 17, push it to 18 when ya level up to 4, that’s where the magic happens. Ain’t no use if ya can’t hit ‘em hard, right?
Why Choose Barbarian?
Well, let’s see. Barbarians are built for brawlin’. They get this Rage thing going on, which makes ’em even tougher. You throw in the Bonespike Garb, and now we’re talkin’! It gives ya 15 temporary Hit Points while ya raging, so you can stay in the fight longer without keeling over.
And lemme tell ya, when you’re throwin’ punches or improvised weapons, you need that extra oomph! The Tavern Brawler feat is all about makin’ those unarmed attacks count. So, no fancy swords or bows needed. Just you and whatever ya can grab!
How to Level Up
- Start as a Barbarian and focus on gettin’ that strength up.
- Get that Tavern Brawler feat at level 4, don’t miss it!
- Consider takin’ some levels in Thief Rogue or Fighter later on to mix things up.
Now, the end game for a real tough build? They say 5 levels in Berserker Barbarian, 4 in Thief Rogue, and 3 in Fighter. That way, you can pick some nice tricks and weapon stuff to keep things interesting. Thinkin’ about that Fighter subclass, ya can go with either the Champion or Eldritch Knight, dependin’ on what kinda weapon ya like best.
Wildheart Rage
Don’t forget about that Wildheart rage. It’s got some good options, but if ya only take a few levels in Barbarian, you ain’t gettin’ all the goodies. So, better think that through. Ya want to be able to swing hard and stay standin’ while ya do it!
So, to wrap it all up, if ya want a build that’s all about brawlin’ and usin’ what’s around ya, the Tavern Brawler Barbarian is the way to go. It ain’t for the faint-hearted, that’s for sure. But if ya like gettin’ up close and personal in a fight, then this build will suit ya just fine!
