0:00
more D and D multiclassing combos. All
0:02
right, today we're looking at the
0:03
fighter wizard, but uh very specifically
0:06
the rune knight fighter and the
0:08
bladinger wizard using a Goliath in the
0:11
2014 rules. So, the comment gets cut
0:14
off, but uh the commenter goes on to say
0:17
that they're building around strength,
0:18
but looking at their base stats, their
0:20
highest score is 17 intelligence. Right
0:23
off the bat, I think building around
0:24
strength here is a mistake. your
0:26
strength is already pretty far behind
0:28
your intelligence. So, you're
0:29
handicapping yourself. You're putting
0:31
your stats way behind the fundamental
0:33
math. And since you're multiclassing,
0:35
you're going to get ability score
0:36
increases very, very slowly. If you're
0:39
committed to rune knight, um probably
0:41
your best runes are cloud and stone
0:43
because you can use them defensively to
0:46
keep yourself alive. Since you're
0:47
starting with fighter levels, you're
0:48
going to get full plate armor and
0:50
proficiency and constitution saves,
0:52
which is fantastic. Like, those are
0:53
great things on a wizard. probably want
0:55
to get your strength up to 15 so you
0:57
don't have the speed penalty. Other than
0:59
that, like long strider will offset it
1:01
for an hour at a time, which is probably
1:03
enough. It sounds like you only want to
1:05
go to three levels in fighter though
1:08
with uh which again on this build is
1:10
going to be a little bit odd. There's a
1:12
lot of unusual choices here. Um, since
1:16
your intelligence is your highest stat,
1:19
um, you're going to depend really
1:20
heavily on blade song to keep you alive
1:23
and you're going to have trouble hitting
1:25
with your attacks. Look for ways to get
1:27
advantage as much as possible. Use your
1:29
spells very very sparingly and try and
1:32
make them very efficient. Make sure you
1:33
pick up the like go-to defenses, shield,
1:36
absorb elements, and then um, since
1:39
you're doing 2014 Goliath, you have
1:40
stones endurance. So like you're going
1:42
to be pretty tanky the most part. you're
1:44
just going to go for pretty typical
1:46
blading tactics. Um, I'd say lean into
1:49
intelligence over strength. That's going
1:50
to be much more reliable for you. Um,
1:53
and then just be defensive. Use cantrips
1:56
like booming blade. Um,
