8 Most Powerful Feat Combos In D&D

No mention of Sharpshooter + Crossbow Expert, this feat combo I used as a ranger to out dps our rogue with three attacks at level 5.

Me (tiefling, fighter) and my girlfriend (gnome, bard) stumbled upon the "Kinsman for a Horse" combo by ourselves. In the campaign, her character already rides around on my back before we ever thought about the combo. So we are quite eager to try it.

But we think bard is too frail for it to work. We are still in the beginning of the campaign. Is there a way to make bards tanky? 👀

Leap Attack + Power Attack from 3rd Edition was the original "classic" combo.

great weapon fighting is great with revenant blade as well

The bonks r us was probably nerfed cause people would also take warcaster, to use spells for opportunity attacks, then play warlock and buff their Eldritch blast with repelling blast and the like to make them impossible to engage in melee, and if they played a Goliath, or had someone enlarge them they had a large enough radius to protect all the back line fighters too

This is great but our group is currently only using the 2024 rules, no legacy and most of this combines the two. Maybe in the future.

are there dnd worlds where magic is not ubiquitous but still there? so that the players are kind of special ?

None of my table's GMs allow Elven Accuracy.
I don't think Mounting other players is kosher. There's a different exploit that I believe explicitly doesn't work on characters that have their own turns. (The reaction recharge nonsense.) But even this might be unreliable.

Ain't much more funnier than talk of builds rather than characters.

So, wait, i'm a little lost:

Is DndShorts combining feats from '14 and '24 to have cross-suppliment Combos for future character ideas?

For the first combo you can get advantage just by picking a weapon with the Vex trait to constantly chain Adv

The only 2024 invocations you can use with eldritch adapt is Armor of Shadow and Devil sight all the pacts have a requirement of having the feature pact magic and all other invocations have a requirement of level 2.. Eldritch adapt is you may take any invocations without a requirement.

the last combo can be stronger with the Cavalier fighter subclass, that have some similar abilities with the feats

Sentinel is useless with Reach weapons. Here's why: Sentinel wants the enemy to use disengage within 5' of you. Reach means your Reaction for Attack Of Opportunity occurs if the enemy attempts to move outside of your 10' Reach. So the DM moves 5' away without provoking an Attack of Opportunity and uses Disengage without provoking Sentinel because they're 10' away, proceeds to ignore your Reaction entirely.

Technically you just need the spell disguise spell for first one

...a open hand monk/beast barbarian using the grasshopper...... the extra jump from the beast legs and all the damage resistance, lord thats alot

How do you cast Jump while grappling? It has a somatic component.

The new jump spell is pretty bonkers. Since you only spend 10 ft. to jump 30, you can grab an enemy and cheesegrater them in spikegrowth for 90 ft. That's 36d4 damage, or 90 average damage. Nice. Even nicer if you're 2lvls in rogue and can bonus action dash, or an orc for the same thing. Even even nicer if you're monk and have extra movement speed. This gets insane real fast.

My Kinsman for a horse… Master Blaster (Mad Max 3) anyone? 😂

ONE PIECE CLIP LETS GOOO!!!

Love the collaborative combos! More of those please 🙏🏽
Maybe with spells?

Did 5.5 removed the "anatomy" requirement for mounts?

sentinel doesn't work like that anymore, only within 5 feet

Pole arm master got changed to using your reaction to make a melee attack rather than attack of opportunity in the 2024 rules. Still alot of shenanigans you can do with it though.

Polearm master say you can spent your reaction to mak an attack not an opportunity attack. Combo with sentinel is not valid

It's not just a nerf that Polearm Master is not an opportunity attack anymore. There are a lot of monster that have a way to ignore opportunity attack and this can be frustrating but now you can attack them without them being able to do anything !

About The Devils Eyepiece: Or you could you know. Go blade warlock and cast Darkness with your devils sight whenever you need your advantage. Seems easier than multiclassing, but maybe that's just me.

Honestly, would love a whole vid about team work combos

Could the gaslight king mimic a banshees cry? As its a sound they make?

If I wanted to ask for help making a character build would I be able to hop on your patreon and get advice there?

Your "Gaslighter King" wouldn't even need the Rune Shaper feat if they're a Warlock build with the Mask of Many Faces invocation.

Try the kinsman for a horse with a centaur. We have a one shot of all fighters.

Buddy plays cavalier fighters with mounted.

Centuar echo knight with sentenal and saddle of cavalier.

Good time

That "Kinsman For A Horse" combo would be a great way to make Ferra/Torr from Mortal Kombat as a pair of characters.

My favorite combo in the 2014 rules was Crossbow Expert + Sharpshooter. I had a level 5 fighter that dual wielded hand crossbows, dealing 3d6+45 damage per turn assuming everything hit. It drove my DM insane XD

Wouldn't the Gaslighter King be better with Eldrich Adept: Mask of many Faces instead of Rune Shaper? I mean that gives you Disguise self at will.

I rolled with “super” advantage for every attack (18 of them) in a one shot. I only got one critical strike the entire time.

How many DMs out there would allow Step of the Wind to double the Jump distance of the Jump spell? (per the new rules). I think i would, rule of cool, especially if they spent a Focus Point on it...

The grasshopper Asswhooper is the perfect Rock Lee build. You are basically hitting them with a primary lotus

DM: No... you can not use your party member as a mount...

How would you play a necromancer that is both fun for you and the rest of the table, DM included?

The Grasshopper combo reminds me so much of Rock Lee's Final Lotus from Naruto. Grabs someone, kicks them into the air, follows them up to grab them into a reverse hug and slams them and himself into the ground.

Bonk are us with a bugbear u get 15 feet reach lol

Eldritch adapt seems like a must have for paladins and valor bards

Do you know what makes the Polearm Master/Sentinel combo even better? Use a Bugbear as your race. It's main racial bonus is your reach is increased by 5 feet. That means using a polearm, your reach is 15 feet. It's the perfect addition to a Battle Master fighter where you can get both feats by 6th level.

The Tetsubo-Monk, take Fighter 1 for a fighting Style (or two levels of Ranger) to take Great Weapon Fighting Style to make any 1 or 2 into a 3 on your 2d4 Greatclub used with Decterity because it is a Monk Weapon (simple weapon) to deal 6-8 + Dex damage
