5E's semi-official gunslinger uses wisdom instead of intelligence, so unless you have a GM willing to let you make a wis-casting wizard you might want to go cleric instead. I think that swapping casting stats should be allowed in a lot of situations anyway, and not only because wis-ard is a funny pun, but I'm aware that this isn't a universal opinion. Forge cleric would let you make your gun magic and ask god for ammunition with only two levels though
Shiggles@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Wizard with a gun is fun and all, but praising blessed ammunition tickles a different set of fancies.
Maggoty@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Artificer would work too though. Arcane spells, flamethrower, and pistol. Call it the 'Namancer. Let the the Artificer upgrade it as their wand for Arcane firearm and burst fire a number of shots identical to cantrip scaling.
Hold on. I need to go write this up. I feel some Duality of Man helmet graffiti coming on…

Shouldn’t a gunslinger be a Dexterity based class?

I think pathfinder has at least 3 ways to build wizard-with-a-gun

Damn, Harry Dresden is not aging well.
Bizarroland@kbin.social 1 year ago
I admit I stopped at about book five, but I don't remember Harry ever using a gun.
Apeman42@lemmy.world 1 year ago
He definitely does, but I think it fades in and out of use at times. Even in Storm Front I believe he has a .38 Special. Later books I think it’s a .44 Magnum.

Is this an American remake of lord of the rings?

Skip the whole two tower nonsense by Gandalf shooting Saruman in the dick.

Saruman probably: That’s not the sound of a man who was shot in the dick.

I’m waiting for people to just mod a fucking .45 Caliber into Baldurs Gate 3 so I can blast Gortash in his fucking head the first time I see him

Try Arcanum if you havent

AI memes are taking over huh
The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 1 year ago
I wondered the same thing, but I really can’t tell if this is AI or not. Does something give it away to you?
I think “wizard-posting” has been a thing since before the AI rush.
0Xero0@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Well he has five normal looking fingers so I guess it’s not AI?

Like that is going to matter
AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Elminster took one level of Fighter for a reason. Even without the 3 levels of Cleric, or the level of Rogue, that one level of Fighter helps every Wizard once the enemy is too close to safely cast.

AI trash
BeautifulMind@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Simple jinx should cause most firearms to fail or jam In a universe where guns exist and level-1 wizards can cast magic missile/fireball and cantrips like firebolt, setting fire to things (like gunpowder), my bet is that low-level magic users aren’t going to be trumped by steampunk-grade tech that easily
vithigar@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
You could make that argument for almost any weapon though. The physical meddling required to snap a bowstring, dull a blade, or even just put a rock n their shoe is minimal. Magic needs to have limits if you want the mundane to compete at any level, and one of those limits is often an unspoken acceptance that you can’t just arbitrarily foul another person’s gear.
Patches@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Being that there the laws for magic depending on the setting - you’re either true or total nonsense.
If it takes even a second to conjure a spell. That means your dead at 3200 feet per second.
I think Dresden said it best. A super sonic round from far enough away will kill you before you ever hear the gunshot.

Tell me more about these “spells”, which occur in limited numbers, are capable of long-range attacks, deal explosive & powerful damage… and can only be performed by someone who has the proper equipment and spends time in advance preparing them for use? :-D

I loved Outlaw Star! Such cool world building!
OpenStars@startrek.website 1 year ago
Why does this remind me of a lightsaber? Oh yes I see, it is the personal love and craftsmanship of its construction, noice:-D.
ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 1 year ago
This is the 2nd time today that I’ve ran across a caster on Lemmy & I’m loving it!
experbia@lemmy.world 1 year ago
no… no! Don’t remind me of Outlaw Star!
I’ll need to watch it again! It’s been so very long. It is such a core part of my aesthetic & genre preferences since I first saw it as a teenager, but I haven’t seen it in a good while.
