    2014 DnD 5e CLERICS LEVELS 1-10 (Remastered) - A Build Guide for Unleashing the Divine

    The RPGBOT.Podcast

    Somewhere in the multiverse, a cleric just whispered "I prepared Bless," and three dice immediately rolled higher out of pure fear. Because clerics aren't "the healbot," they're the divine Swiss Army knife: buffer, debuffer, front-liner, artillery, investigator, walking lie detector, and occasionally the person who politely asks a demon to leave and the demon actually does. Today we're building clerics from levels 1–10: how to pick your domain, what to prepare, how to stop wasting actions, and how to make your table say, "Wait… clerics can do that?" Show notes Cleric identity at levels 1–10: You're a full caster with armor, a strong action economy toolkit, and some of the best "party-wide value per spell slot" in the game. Choosing a Domain (Subclass) with intent What each domain wants to do in combat (frontline, blaster, controller, support, utility). How domain spells shape your "default prep list." The hidden question: "Do I want to solve problems with my action, my bonus action, or my reaction?" Ability scores and build priorities Wisdom as your engine (save DCs, prepared spells, key features). Constitution for concentration survivability. Strength vs Dexterity depending on armor and weapon plans. Armor, weapons, and "being accidentally hard to kill" Light/medium/heavy armor considerations. Shield math and when it's worth it. Weapon use: when it's a trap, when it's correct, and how cantrips change the calculus. Cantrips that actually matter Core combat cantrips (and why "I guess I'll swing my mace" is usually a cry for help). Utility cantrips that quietly win sessions. Spell preparation that doesn't make you cry Your "always-good" staples (buffs, heals, control, utility). How to prep for unknown adventuring days without over-prepping niche tools. Concentration discipline: the real cleric skill. Channel Divinity: use it early, use it often Turning Undead and its situational dominance. Domain Channel Divinity options as mid-tier power spikes. How Channel Divinity changes your "resource rhythm" between short rests. Level-by-level power spikes (1–10) L1: Domain + armor + Bless = "party performance enhancement plan" L2: Channel Divinity arrives (and suddenly your subclass has teeth) L3: 2nd-level spells broaden your problem-solving L5: 3rd-level spells are the "cleric becomes a headline" moment L6–8: subclass features + improved survivability + cantrip/weapon upgrades L9–10: 5th-level spells and consistent encounter impact Table role: how to be a cleric without becoming the babysitter Healing as a tool, not a lifestyle. Preventing damage and ending fights faster as the "real healing." Coordinating with your party so your buffs land where they matter. Key Takeaways  Start with your cleric job description Pick one primary role and one secondary role: Support/Buffer (primary) + Controller (secondary) Frontline (primary) + Support (secondary) Blaster (primary) + Utility/Support (secondary) Most clerics get in trouble when they try to be all of these every round. Concentration is your true hit point total A cleric who keeps concentration up is a force multiplier. A cleric who drops it every other round is a very polite person wearing armor. Practical habits: Don't stack concentration spells in your head like a wishlist—pick one plan per fight. Invest in Con saves/survivability decisions early. Position like you're important (because you are). Your "default fight plan" should fit on an index card Example templates: Support opener: Concentration buff → sustain/position → emergency heal only when it flips the encounter. Control opener: Concentration control → maintain distance/cover → punish clustering. Frontline opener: Concentration buff/control → stand where enemies hate it → force bad choices. Healing is strongest when it changes the math right now In-combat healing shines when it: Prevents an ally from going down before they lose their next turn, Buys a crucial round of actions, Keeps a key damage dealer online, Or pairs with control/positioning to stop the "down-up-down" cycle. Otherwise, healing between fights (and prevention during fights) is often more efficient. Domain spells and Channel Divinity are your build's "signature moves" If you're not using your domain's unique tools regularly, you may have picked a domain whose play pattern you don't actually enjoy. Levels 1–10 clerics win by being the most consistent person at the table You don't need perfect optimization to be great—clerics reward: Reliable concentration, Smart positioning, Prepared spells that solve common problems, And knowing when to spend resources to swing an encounter.

    More DND Greentext reactions: https://www.youtube.com/playli... Welcome back to another r/DnDGreentext classic! In today's tale, we dive into one of the most cathartic Dungeons and Dragons stories ever told. A smug, chaotic rogue with classic "that guy tabletop" energy finally pushes the party too far and our gnome wizard answers with a fireball gone wrong… or maybe oh-so-right. This DnD greentext starts like so many others. The party is split, outnumbered, and trying to bluff their way out. But the rogue, in true rpg horror story fashion, charges in without a plan. He ruins the moment. Again. And again. Until someone finally does the math. Our gnome wizard doesn't just calculate firepower though, he calculates consequences. The rogue, always saying "it's what my character would do," finds out the hard way what that guy tabletop behavior really earns you when the party wizard is smarter than the party. That's when the fireball goes flying. ------------------------------------------------------------ #DnDGreentext #ThatGuyTabletop #FireballGoneWrong #DungeonsAndDragons #RPGHorrorStory Discord: https://discord.gg/Sju7YckUWu Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/daytondo...

    The RPGBOT.Podcast
    D&D CAMPAIGN SETTINGS - The Multiverse is a Soda Fountain and We're Bad at Choosing

    The RPGBOT.Podcast

    Play Episode Listen Later Jan 22, 2026 72:54


    Welcome to the RPGBOT.Podcast, where tonight we bravely attempt to eat the entire Dungeons & Dragons campaign setting menu in one sitting. No tie-ins, no supplements, no "this was technically in Dragon Magazine once" nonsense: just the official D&D settings, served tasting-menu style. From post-apocalyptic deserts where magic killed the planet, to punk fantasy with robot soldiers, to the setting so generic it's basically carbonated water, we're ranking, roasting, and reminiscing about the worlds that shaped tabletop roleplaying games. Grab your character sheet, loosen your belt, and prepare for Forgotten Realms Coke vs Greyhawk Pepsi discourse. Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we review the official Dungeons & Dragons campaign settings created by Wizards of the Coast (excluding licensed tie-ins and sub-settings) to help players and Dungeon Masters understand what makes each world distinct. Rather than deep dives, this episode delivers a high-level overview of each D&D setting's tone, themes, and playstyle, helping listeners decide which campaign setting best fits their table. Campaign Settings Covered Birthright – A kingdom-management focused D&D setting where divine bloodlines grant rulers supernatural authority. Ideal for players who want politics, rulership, and domain-level play alongside traditional adventuring. Dark Sun – A grimdark, post-apocalyptic fantasy setting defined by ecological collapse, psionics, scarce resources, and moral ambiguity. One of D&D's darkest campaign settings. Dragonlance – Epic fantasy rooted in legendary novels, fallen gods, returning dragons, and mythic heroism. A classic D&D setting built around narrative arcs and world-shaking events. Eberron – A pulp fantasy and dungeon-punk setting where magic functions as technology. Airships, warforged, political intrigue, and post-war fallout define this highly popular D&D world. Forgotten Realms – The default D&D campaign setting for 5e. High-magic, high-fantasy, dense lore, iconic characters, and flexible adventure design make it the most widely recognized setting. Greyhawk – The original published D&D setting, emphasizing sword-and-sorcery, moral ambiguity, and classic fantasy roots tied to iconic spells and characters. Mystara – A simplified fantasy setting originally designed for Basic D&D, featuring lighter tone, fewer races, and a more approachable style for new or younger players. Nentir Vale – A minimalist fourth-edition setting designed as a flexible framework rather than a fully realized world—perfect for Dungeon Masters who prefer homebrew. Planescape – A multiversal setting centered on Sigil, the City of Doors. Philosophical factions, planar travel, cosmic weirdness, and reality-bending concepts define this fan-favorite. Ravenloft – Gothic horror fantasy featuring cursed domains, tragic villains, and psychological dread. A setting focused on atmosphere, consequences, and survival. Spelljammer – Space fantasy for D&D, blending swashbuckling adventure with crystal spheres, astral travel, and magical ships sailing between worlds. Key Takeaways Not all D&D campaign settings are designed for the same playstyle—some emphasize politics, others horror, survival, or pulp action. Forgotten Realms works as the most flexible and accessible default setting, especially for new players. Eberron stands out for its coherent worldbuilding and logical use of magic as technology. Dark Sun and Ravenloft require player buy-in due to their heavy themes and darker tone. Planescape offers unmatched freedom and philosophical depth but demands strong DM preparation. Nentir Vale exists primarily as a DM toolkit rather than a narrative world. Older settings like Greyhawk, Dragonlance, and Mystara remain relevant for groups seeking classic fantasy vibes or nostalgia-driven campaigns. Dungeon Masters should choose a setting that reinforces—not fights—the story they want to tell. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

    In this episode, special co-host Diana Yáñez and Sweet Miche explore the concept of belonging, not just to each other, but to all of existence. From the linguistic wisdom of the Aymara people to the radical call of liberation theology and the hard work of healing Quaker involvement in Indian Boarding Schools, we're asking what might happen to our faith if we start living from the "We" instead of the "I"? Jiwasa: The Communal We with Rubén Hilari Quispe  Rubén, an Aymara Quaker and linguist, introduces us to jiwasa – a concept of "we-ness" that includes humans, the environment, and even the objects around us. He invites us to sit with the unsettled feeling of language that doesn't center the individual. Read Rubén's article, "Jiwasa, the Communal We" in the January 2026 issue of Friends Journal or at FriendsJournal.org. You can hear an extended interview in Spanish with English subtitles at the Friends Journal YouTube page.  Liberation Theology and the Inner Light with Renzo Carranza  Guatemalan Friend Renzo Carranza explores how the Quaker Inner Light intersects with the radical tradition of liberation theology. Together, they form a call to action: to reinterpret the gospels from the perspective of the marginalized and transform society. Watch the full QuakerSpeak video, “Transforming the SPIRIT: Liberation Theology and the Inner Light” at QuakerSpeak.com. Collective Relationship and Boarding Schools with Rachel Overstreet  Rachel Overstreet (Choctaw Nation) discusses the history of Quaker Indian boarding schools. She suggests that the way forward isn't through individual guilt, but through collective relationship. Read Rachel's article, “Speaking with Friends About Indian Boarding Schools” in the January 2026 issue of Friends Journal or at FriendsJournal.org. Rachel writes the Native American Legislative Update, a monthly newsletter on the most important developments on Capitol Hill related to Indian Country. You can also write your Congressperson to cosponsor and pass the Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding School Policies Act. Find out more at fcnl.org/issues/native-americans. Book Review: Chooch Helped  Katie Green reviews a charming children's book by Andrea L. Rogers and Rebecca Lee Koons (Cherokee Nation) that celebrates present-day Cherokee family life and love. Read Katie's review of Chooch Helped in the January 2026 issue or at FriendsJournal.org. Recommended Resources by Indigenous Creators Jonny Appleseed (Novel) By Joshua Whitehead (they/them) A beautifully fragmented story about a Two-Spirit, Indigiqueer person navigating life in Winnipeg. The title ironically reclaims a settler-colonial myth to tell a raw story of modern Indigenous identity. Coyote & Crow (Tabletop Role-Playing Game) Created by a team of over 30 Indigenous creators Set in an "Indigenous Futurism" world where the Americas were never colonized. This RPG focuses on community, advanced technology, and spirits in a world where history took a different path. Drama & Performance The Thanksgiving Play (Play) By Larissa FastHorse (Sicangu Lakota Nation) A biting, hilarious satire that made history as the first play by a Native American woman on Broadway. It follows four well-meaning white people trying to create a "politically correct" Thanksgiving play for a school. The Rez Sisters (Play) By Tomson Highway (Cree) A modern classic of Indigenous drama. It tells the story of seven women on a reserve who dream of winning "the biggest bingo game in the world." It's a powerful blend of humor, tragedy, and the supernatural. Mary Kathryn Nagle: Land Sovereignty and Indigenous Women's Rights (Podcast/Interview) Produced by Peterson Toscano for Citizens Climate Radio A deep-dive conversation with Cherokee playwright and attorney Mary Kathryn Nagle. She discusses how her plays, like Sovereignty and Manahatta, serve as "living law," using the stage to advocate for tribal jurisdiction and the safety of Indigenous women. Music & Audio Come and Get Your Love (Song) By Redbone The 1974 hit that made Redbone the first Native American band to reach the top five on the Billboard Hot 100. Forged (Podcast) CBC Listen / Host: Adrian Stimson A gripping series exploring a massive art fraud ring involving the works of Norval Morrisseau, the "Picasso of the North." Literature & Thought Sacred Instructions (Book) By Sherri Mitchell (Weh'na Ha'mu Kwasset) A roadmap for "spirit-based change" drawing on Penobscot ancestral wisdom to address modern crises. Dr. Lyla June Johnston (Scholar & Musician) A Diné (Navajo) and Cheyenne artist whose work blends hip-hop with traditional acoustics and ecological activism. Digital Culture & Media Trixie Mattel: Root Maintenance (Video/Q&A) The world-famous drag queen discusses her biracial Ojibwe heritage and navigating identity in the public eye. Rez Ball (Film) Produced by LeBron James and Sterlin Harjo A 2024 film following a Navajo high school basketball team, capturing the unique, fast-paced style of "Rezball." Next Month's Question A central part of Quakerism is our commitment to peace. But that doesn't mean we should avoid conflict. In fact, it means we have a specific responsibility to it.

    The Titterpigs finally corner Dr. Paul Mitchener, designer, educator, and creator of Liminal, for a long-overdue chat. Paul takes us from his first RPG experience (GMing D&D before he'd ever played) to his early published work on Wild Talents, and how a mix of curiosity, collaboration, and sheer nerve turned into a career in game design.We dig into the origins of Liminal, why its UK-flavored urban fantasy struck a nerve, what's coming next for the line, and the hard-earned truth about running Kickstarters, stretch goals, budgets, and a little launch-day superstition. Paul also teases Age of Arthur 2E, a new Osprey Games project, and reflects on the Mitchester Arms online pub that kept a lot of us sane.Plus: ukuleles, polite British bragging, and why networking is just “making friends with extra steps.”You can Email us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠titterpigspod@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠with your comments, questions, or soundbites.Episode Intro by Dr. Mitch.

    In a strange corner of the RPG space, there's a new insistence about how DnD ought to be played. Close adherence to time metrics needs to be prioritized. DnD's roots as a minitature wargame need to be respected. That all that came before us was once good and now we look upon false idols. Jeffro Johnson wrote How to Win at D&D in 2022.
