This week's twist is all about Avoiding Hits and Damage.  We took up the challenge to see how far we could push our Armor Class (AC) and soak up damage being dished out. Our offerings include a Hulkbuster Artificer (who taunts people to hit him and laughs as they can't) and a Cleric/Wizard combo (that absorbs damage inflicted on itself and allies while using its actions to keep people at full health).

Everyone's got a unique idea and cool plan for optimizing a tabletop RPG character build. But what if your parameters were a bit askew? Or what if you wanted to semi-optimize, but flavor it around a specific roleplay concept? Well friends, look no further! We give you "Twisted   Builds"! What are Twisted Builds, you ask? We set up 10 simple rules to follow. Listen in on any Twisted Builds episode and get some interesting ideas for new characters down the road. Or, write in and tell us how we did it all wrong!  The rules are simple.

1. Establish a Theme. Declare a Concept. Impose a Twist.


2. All characters are level 10 using Point-Buy.


3. All races and classes are acceptable without explanation.


4. All Tasha’s Optional Rules can be used.


5. No Homebrew unless it’s semi-official on DnDBeyond.


6. Multiclassing is allowed but must follow requirements for Ability Scores.


7. No magic items unless the class somehow grants them. Any mundane items are allowed.


8. All Subclasses can only ever be used up to a total of 10 levels. We want to showcase different builds.


9. Established setting will be within the world we’ve been creating in other Workshops. We’ll continue adding things to the world in future episodes!


10. These builds are purely for fun and quirky concepts. They may be somewhat optimized, but no guarantees.

That's it! Subscribe, leave a review, and tell all your friends! We'd also love to hear what you think about the show. You can communicate with us directly at our EpicBlunders Twitter handle or follow our other projects on DM's Guild.
