#5E SIDEKICK CLASSES HOW TO#

Besides learning how to use the sidekick classes in FGU, I learned a lot about how the Class system works in FGU. This video was very helpful and informative. But I wanted to clarify that it was not deliberate. I figured it was probably an oversight based on expediency while making the video. I was expecting it to be 10 HP because the base kobold had 5 HP. I realized after reviewing the video that the 5 HP was not the original HPs from the basic kobold, but ratherĠ HP + 6 HP (from class) + (-1) CON MOD. What had me questioning my understanding was the it looked like the kobold's hit points were wrong after the level up. The video was clear about how to properly apply the sidekick classes in Fantasy Grounds. I was able to use the information in your video to figure out how to create the sidekicks. Our sidekick will have all the attributes it had as the base creature, plus what it gains from levels in the sidekick class. Then we can add the sidekick class level(s) to it. So for creating a sidekick in FGU, we should create the 'PC' with the abilities, skills, hit points, traits, etc. I want to let the players handle the sidekicks during the game.

But I wanted to use the automated sidekick classes because it will be easier to maintain and use as the campaign progresses. So I copied a Goblin stat block and edited it to add the levels of Expert to it. This is what I did when I first had trouble figuring out how to use the sidekick classes. Now I know what I did wrong my first time trying to do it.īut a question arises based on the description in the book on how it should be done. I just watched Zacchaeus' video on making sidekicks using the new rules from Tasha's CoE.
