A Guide to the 5E Shield Master in Dragons and Dungeon serials

The fifth edition of D&D in which 5E Shield Master gives us two options when it comes to choosing a race for our Dragons and dungeon masters. First, we have the traditional Frost-Fang, Bear, or Earth Resistance; and second, we have the Fire, Acid, or Water Resistance. But which are the right races for our D&D gamers?

If you want more damage in your party, go for the Dragon. They offer excellent dragon buffs and defense. Plus, their dexterity helps them with concentration and their dodge buff helps them survive well against enemy attacks.

If you want more survival, you should go for the Bear. Because they have decent armor and their strength buff is a powerful buff, plus they get a -2 DEX buff, that will be very helpful for concentration. The Bear also has a powerful offensive attack and their dexterity buff is a very valuable one – especially if you want to inflict multiple critical damage. You can’t go wrong with the Bear character.

In order to make your characters more viable in actual play, they should both be able to handle offense and defense, especially if you’re going to play a tank in a group or a raid. If you want more utility than attack power, consider a Water Resistance for the Frost-Fangs, or a Fire Resistance for the Bear. If you’re going into dungeons, a strong enough defense is necessary to avoid getting killed. The ability to regenerate while you’re taking damage is very important for any good 5e Shield Master.

Now that we’ve covered what is required for a good tank, we need to find what is best for a DPS-style class. For offensive DPS, go for the damage buff. However, don’t go overboard and get a buff that gives you a massive amount of hit points. Instead, focus on things like extra weapon attacks, dual-wielding, and a stupendous pets. These last two are extremely important for survivability, especially if you enjoy running around and being a nuisance to your enemies. If you buff your pet’s health and attack power, this makes them even more formidable.

You will also find that the Bear has an excellent buff to any defensive stat, especially stamina. This is great for groups as the main damage dealer, but not so useful for single target damage. For groups without much defense, the bonus defenses from the 5e Shield Master set are nice, but you should focus more on attack power than stamina here. You can also equip the Bear with a powerful shield that is very useful for high-priority tanking.

If you like to go solo, buff your Dragon & Dungeon prior to going into the dungeon. This should come before you enter the fight, when you have all of your gear and abilities working together. It will still help if you bring the buffed characters with you, but the sooner you enter the fight the better. It is good to have some instant defense spells available for emergencies in case the enemy gets a lucky hit.

The shield can be used to great effect by a well-planned tanking strategy. The idea is to create a buffer zone between you and the enemies, using the buff to keep you safe. Then, once you are in trouble the tanks should be ready to take a few hits themselves, and everyone else can be focusing on the boss, who is likely to be the weak point in the group. The idea is to create as much pain on the enemy as possible, and the healer will be able to keep everyone topped off and focused on healing. This means that the buff will last long enough for everyone to work together, and the shields will last long enough for everyone to be relatively safe. In general, the 5e Shield Master is a great choice for parties looking to give their members some added durability.
