The Fighters of DnD 5e are just as adaptable as ever, but some old favorite builds have been left out in the cold by its simplified mecanics. These three archetypes can help support fighting styles that may seem mundane on the surface, but take practice to execute.
The Bastion is a classic fighter archetype, wielding weapons and armor normally reserved for soldiers in formation as personal arms, and putting themselves in harm’s way so that their allies don’t have to.
The Skirmisher relies on thrown weapons, nimble feet, and an even more nimble mind to overcome their foes.
The Shock Trooper is a tank, to be sure. Shock troopers inhibit their foes, making such a nuisance of themselves that they are dangerous to engage, but fatal to ignore.

October Brewfest Week 2: Warriors
Today we’ve got an update to the fighter archetypes I shared in the early days of this blog. This is mostly changes to wording but the capstone features of the skirmisher and bastion recieved substantial changes, removing saving throws and vague wording that might weaken them at the table.
It’s a shame these specialist archetypes can’t use yesterday’s conversion kit. I’ve been hint dropping all week, and you’ll have to deal with it for just one more day. Tomorrow, I’ll share a preview of something I’ve got on the anvil- Robilar’s Treatise on Combat.
That document will include some subclasses that use the Battle Master’s maneuver system out of the gate, as well as some feats to give other fighters a chance to get in on the action. I’ll see you all tomorrow to round out week two of the brew festival!

“We never give up, no, we never sit still
It's time to stand up
Time to take the red pill
To make this our world
Gonna die on this hill
Be ready to fight and be ready to kill”
(These are based on a design from the artists @geminineart , I love there redesign of the specialists so I drew my favorites 🥹)



timsky brainrot has taken over
we meet another specialist tomorrow
...he's the last option in our region before we've run out of clinicians who will help.
I have one appointment with him, and he made it very clear he doesn't want to see me afterwards because I already have input from a pain specialist...that pain specialist has been close to pointless.
Wish us luck!
