Bard: Difference between revisions

You gain Proficiency with Medium Armor, Sabers, Rapiers, and Scimitars.<br>

You can use Simple or Martial Melee Weapons you’re Proficient with as a Spellcasting Focus.

You adopt a particular style of fighting as your specialty. Choose one of the following options you do not already have:

*'''Dueling.''' When you are wielding a Melee Weapon in one hand and no other Weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to Damage Rolls with that Weapon.

*'''Two-Weapon Fighting.''' When you use Two-Weapon Fighting, you can add your Ability Modifier to the Damage of the second Attack.

You learn to perform impressive displays of martial prowess and speed. Whenever you take the Attack Action, your Speed increases by 10ft until the end of the turn, and if a Weapon Attack that you make as part of this Action hits a creature, you can use one of the following Blade Flourish options of your choice. When you use a Blade Flourish, you expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration and deal additional Damage to the target equal to one roll of your Bardic Inspiration Die, as well as another benefit as follows:

*'''Defensive Flourish.''' You gain a bonus to your AC equal to the number rolled on your Bardic Inspiration Die until the start of your next turn.

*'''Slashing Flourish.''' You deal Damage to another creature of your choice that you can see within 5ft of you equal to the number rolled on your Bardic Inspiration Die.

*'''Mobile Flourish.''' You push the target of the attack up to 5ft away from you, plus a number of feet equal to the number rolled on your Bardic Inspiration Die. You can then immediately use your Reaction to move up to your Walking Speed to an unoccupied space within 5ft of the target.

You can perform an additional Attack as part of the Attack Action.<br>

If you have multiple copies of this feature and achieve a certain level threshold, the number of Attacks you can perform increases. At 5th Level if you have one copy of the feature, you can perform one extra Attack, at 11th Level if you have two copies of the feature you can perform two extra Attacks, and at 20th Level if you have three copies of the feature you can perform three extra Attacks.  

Whenever you use your Blade Flourish feature, you can choose to not expend a use of your Bardic Inspiration and instead use a d8 in place of your Bardic Inspiration Die.
