Defensive Duelist

[Mozgoth]

I don't understand how it really works.

"When you are attacked with a melee attack, you use your reaction to increase your Armour Class, potentially causing the attack to miss."

How reaction works?
How much AC bonus do i receive?

Thanks!

Also make sure you select the reaction, to the right of the main part of the ability bar.

Each round your character can make a bonus action, action, and reaction. For example most people use an opportunity attack for their reaction. The reaction panel is on the far right of the toolbar. I think you can only choose to auto trigger reactions at this point.

Think it needs work, a lot of work, my rogue as 15 dex 15 int, 15 wis 15 ca 12 st, and i don;t see many. I have basicly +4 to everything in the game but i'm not seeing the benefit for it.

On the post said that a finesse weapons is required but the game doesn't say nothing.

Do strength weapons work with defensive duelist in BG3?

Can I have opportuny attacks, defensive duelist and parry from the battle master subclass all working together?

... don't use hex editors in EA builds?

I mean, literally.

15 in 4 stats and 12 in another, even including +2/4 (half-elf) racials and +2 at level 4... you can't get flat 15's and a 12 legitimately.

49/27 is the points cost there champ, can't happen.

"Hurr durr, if I hex edit EA and it doesn't work right, should I complain on the forums about it?"

No. Or at least be not an idiot and say: "I hex edited my stats, doesn't seem to be working"

Its possible if you are human.
str: 8 + 1 + 3(3pts) = 12
dex: 8 + 1 + 6(7pts) = 15
con: 8 + 1 = 9
int: 8 + 1 + 6(7pts) = 15
wis: 8 + 1 + 1(level 4) + 5(5pts) = 15
cha: 8 + 1 + 1(level 4) + 5(5pts) = 15

Not to mention if you were going to hex edit, why would you make most of the stats odd numbers??? Why not just make them all 16, 18 or 20??? You only get the ability bonus increase at even numbers.
