I want to look at the level 11 feature,
0:03
chilling retribution. When a creature
0:05
hits you with an attack roll, you can
0:06
take a reaction to force the creature to
0:07
make a wisdom saving throw against your
0:09
spell DC. On a failed save, the target
0:11
has the stunned condition until the end
0:13
of your next turn. While the target is
0:15
stunned, its speed is reduced to zero
0:17
feet.
0:17
>> That's real good.
0:19
>> Pretty good. Yeah.
0:20
>> Yeah. Good motivation to be in melee
0:22
drawing attacks.
0:24
>> Uh I I looked at this and it was
0:26
basically
0:27
>> they don't you don't need to be in
0:28
melee. Oh, well I mean just so that
0:30
you're drawing attacks so that you can
0:32
force so you can take the reaction.
0:34
>> Fair enough. Fair enough.
0:35
>> Yeah.
0:36
>> Yeah. But but I mean for the folks at
0:38
home, if a spellcaster hits you with an
0:39
attack roll spell, that would still
0:41
count and you could still trigger this.
0:44
>> Mhm.
0:44
>> Um
0:45
>> Oh, it doesn't have a range.
0:47
>> It does not.
0:48
>> That's interesting.
0:49
>> That's what I was saying. When it hits
0:51
you with with an attack roll, that's it.
0:53
Yeah. No weapon [laughter] attack, no
0:54
range, nothing. in the unearthed arcana
0:57
that I looked at, uh, instead of
0:59
stunned, it was frightened. And so I'm
1:01
looking at that diff and I'm like,
1:02
>> this makes more sense.
1:04
>> This
1:06
also makes more sense because it seems
1:08
like you're turning around and freezing
1:10
them essentially.
1:11
>> Yeah.
1:11
>> Yeah. Now, I'm not willing to play this
1:14
subass for 11 levels
1:17
>> to get that. No.
1:19
>> No.
1:20
>> But if you say we're starting at like
1:22
level 12 in Icewindendale,
1:24
>> absolutely. Honestly, a ranger that that
1:27
worships or follows Arl sounds pretty
1:30
dope.
