Forbidden Art of The World Ender (5e Class)
|
This page is incomplete and/or lacking flavor. Reason: No subclasses. Missing multiclassing information. What's parry (Forbidden Art of Tranquil souls)? Incomplete.
|
|
This page is of questionable balance. Reason: Blade of Red Skies seems busted. Each turn fighting a boss one of your attacks can deal upwards of 8 times weapon damage, or 4 times on a successful throw. Uses one attack action giving you that +1 standard attack.
