Going 2handed with Great Weapon Fighting and Battlemaster has given me really solid DPS despite rolling lukewarm stats for my character. We play with a Cleric who has 20 STR and 18 WIS so I only somewhat caught up in damage and utility with my maneuvers. But now I'll be attacking twice every turn, up to four times if I use action surge... and we're about to enter a fighting tournament.

Well they're a "war cleric." I dunno how it works but they have a system to get extra attacks out too.

They're probably doing something stupid. Most 5e cleric attacks add Wis mod to damage / saving throws based on Wis. There's most likely a way to do exactly what he's doing now but with a lot more damage.

You're the guy that had a duel between your fighter and this cleric, right?

Ah, I figured that was this guy too.
Didn't he say near the end they were trying to make it not happen?

Level 5 is the first real tier-jump you have in 5e. Casters get level 3 spells and non-casters get Extra Attack, with rogues getting Uncanny Dodge to help them with their survivability. Things start to feel a bit more distinct from here, imo. I played a Battlemaster for a time while my character was in a transitional stage of his life, and it was pretty fun. Have you been enjoying it, tc?

Yeah, I think this is when your fighter should start to match up/outpace the melee damage of the cleric. I don't think they get any other improvements to melee other than an extra d8 to damage once per turn at level 8 which ups to 2d8 at level 14.

Going 2handed with Great Weapon Fighting

I love that thing.
A few weeks ago i got a Crit but rolled 1 on both hit dice.
For a sec i was very dissappointed until i remembered "hey, i can reroll that" and got something like a 7 and 8

The duel was called off since DM didnt want out-of-game hurt feelings.

It has been a good time
