How to Play Cole MacGrath in Dungeons & Dragons (Infamous Build for D&D 5e) 

I love how standard Cole’s elements were, and then how strange Delsin’s were. Like lightning, ice, fire? Cool. Smoke? Concrete? Neon? VIDEO GAME ELEMENT?

Finally someone else recognized this franchise existed

With this vid, we now have the dynamic edge duo of 2009: Cole MacGrath and Alex Mercer

With the amount of times you've mentioned sorcerer already, I'm fully expecting a ton of bard levels.

InFamous is such a cool series, Rip in pastrami

I don't think the flavour of this will fit into any upcoming campaigns, but when the time comes...I will be ready.

To be fair if you get both endings in Infamous 2 in the post game Cole has access to all three elements as he runs around the city so giving him both is still character/lore correct, even if it is triggering a little early. You’ve done a fine job here sir. Feel better.

I miss the Infamous games! They were cool

An idea for a Build that may give you a chuckle - titular character of Dave the Barbarian, a man who became Barbarian because he thought it means a librarian who also does barbecue.

I thought several times how Cole MacGrath would work in several TTRPGs, and I'm glad there is at least one video covering it

My two favorite classes

Legit solid build for Cole, definitely love the Absorb Elements and Evasion pairing for minimum damage even on a failed save.

One thing I really like about this build is how the pieces fit surprisingly well together. Monk mobility goes well with caster mobility. You've got a limited number of spell slots & sorcery/ki points, but you've ALWAYS got lightning fists to fall back on. Mobility & flexibility really feels like the name of the game here, and this build would be a TON of fun in urban terrain- entirely fitting for an Infamous build, where the urban setting is central to the whole experience.

I'm so happy to see Cole again, little sad no first game footage, at least none that I recognized, was honestly expecting a build with fighter, but I can say as someone who played both games a lot, very solid and pretty accurate build, especially love the balancing you do with the multiple elements from 2

Does this mean we might get a Delsin Rowe build? Infamous Secondson is one of my favorite games, along with Nier: Automata and Dishonored, but you already have 2B and Corvo Attano.

YES FINALLY I CAN PLAY AS COLE MACGRATH YES YES YESSSSS!!!!!! MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERES

And here I thought the subclass would be a *Storm Sorcerer.* I hope it gets an update cause the flavour of the class is really cool. "I work on a farm herding goats, then one day I was struck by lightning and now I'm *Thunder boy"*

Hell yes! One of my favorite characters ever!

As soon as I saw the title, the first thing I thought of is Shadow Sorcerer and Shadow Monk. I feel like you could do some interesting things using Darkness.

I love the Infamous games! Gonna need to give this build a go for a future campaign.

I’m so happy to finally see Someone form the Infamous series!!!

Fantastic build! Now I just need to find some good vampirism rules to account for that one time when Cole was a vampire...

To help the algorithm I'm also wanting to throw in a suggestion for Isaac Clarke from Dead Space, simply because I want to see you do more horror characters

Holy shit, finally! I've been waiting years for this one

YES! Infamous is one of my favourite series I'm glad you're covering it

Love Infamous

I'm a bit shocked you haven't done this build before now.

Yeah, Monk and Sorcerer work better than expected if you have an idea in mind. My Build is a Duergar Aberrant Mind Sorcerer (14)/Astral Self Monk (5) /Fighter (1) You get resistance to Two Types of Damage, Three conditions (Charmed, Frightened and Stunned) and a cool Psionic Construct Motif. That one level in Fighter gives you Unarmed Fighting which bumps up your D6 to D8, which is more usable.

I have been waiting for someone to build Cole! I definitely using this build when I become a player again (Stuck as forever DM atm).

So much nostalgia with this one, and is great that it is a really solid build. Haven't tried doing a Monk/Arcane Caster multiclass, but with builds like this Kailua and Larxene I certainly got some inspiration.

You're becoming a hero to these people Tulok

This is a great build! I love Cole, and the inFamous games are some of my absolute favorites 🤘🌩

Loved the InFamous series, thanks for the video!

😂 how dare I skip Tuesday viewing when Tulok still delivers true strike chuckles 🤭 Look at this 🖼️

A Delsin build would be interesting, though how you count neon and video for damage types might make it tricky.

Transmuted spell is broken with a tempest cleric because they can use channel divinity to make lightning or thunder damage deal max instead of rolling, and you can transmute a spell that normally does radiant damage, and then make it do max lightning or thunder damage

As both Cole and Jesse Faden would agree, there's just something super satisfying about yeeting your surroundings at the enemies.

Yes I’ve been dying to see this as a video!

So glad someone gave Cole some love. He needs to be remembered.

Also gotta bring this up... because a friend who's playing in my game had this conversation with me. How do you Play the Cocaine Bear in D&D. My thought was Circle of the Moon Druid with Bear Totem Barbarian. Rage and Wild Shape at the same time, pick some battles to just sleep through.

I've been waiting for this build ever since the Alex Mercer video and now I get to try this build out myself!

I do not have words to express my happiness! I am so excited for this build!!

Legit LOL'd at the Nickelback joke.

I miss the infamous games so good

Very happy to see this.

Cole is one if the characters I've been hoping to see since I discovered your channel! I figured you probably wouldn't, because his games came out so long ago.

Tulok: What if you just dropped spells on your enemy? And they exploded and couldn't hit you? Use fire. Use lightning. Use cold damage. Use whatever you want Me: Or I'll just use lightning, fire, ice, or a sword that can *SMITE* while heavily armored with draconic wings

This is a build that truly got me excited!

Remember that time cole was a vampire? That dlc was wierd because bloody Mary made you a vampire.

I'm hoping this episode does well enough to maybe see a delsin episode! Love the infamous series, it was SO good! Shocking nobody, I picked the ice powers first, lmao

Thanks. Now whe can make the Alex vs Cole fight happen in DND.

One build that I would find to be really interesting to see is Kai Chisaki/Overhaul from My Hero Academia

God I miss these games

I've never played the Infamous games, I didn't know what they were about and what little I saw before this made the theme seem way too dark for my liking but now I do believe that I'll have to check them out.

Damn bro, your sponsor/illness could not be more relatable right now 🤢. Thank you for making such great content all the time maboi

For pure mechanics I would've gone for Half elf you get 2 proficiencies and +2 to cha and then you get +1 to both Dex and Con

Monk sorcerer is how I tried to make natsu dragneel, (draconian sorcery/Draconic soul monk)

I know nothing about D&D and have never played it, nor will I ever. That said... something something handsome and stuff ^.^ Also, Infamous1&2+FoB Remaster, PLEASE!

Infamous is my favorite game series, Where on the patreon is the character sheet? (And what level of do i have to be to get it.)

Holy GOD that intro! Did you make it yourself? 10/10

his hero name is The Electric Man

Can you make a how to play The Lich(Adventure Time) in Dungeons and Dragons video?

It's super weird watching this video because my name is Cole and I don't hear it that often in stuff.

Hey man my name's Cole and I think it could be a superhero name.

maybe I should actually play this, it looks fun

Can we get Jason Bourne character build? On the surface you could probably just use the John Wick or Daredevil build, but I feel like there’s unique potential in JB build.

Past from the blast

Huh, I thought that Tulok usually did all female characters in March? In the ancient war between Prototype and Infamous, I stood with Cole... until I eventually bought Prototype anyway, because they're actually both really good games. I will say that some of the dialogue for the "evil" path was super cheesy, but that didn't necessarily make it any less fun. Now, because it is Women’s Month, I will only wildly speculate on what female builds could possibly come next: Smash Bros: Rosalina (Is the True Star Lord) Overwatch: DVa (Plays to Win) Mortal Kombat: Sindel (Sings the High Note) Bridge of Spirits: Kena (Ghost Whisperer) Returnal: Selene Vassos (Live. Die. Repeat.) Resident Evil: Donna Beneviento (Plays with Dolls) Final Fantasy: Aerith Gainsborough (She’ll Definitely Be Fine) Indivisible: Ajna (Enemies on Her Mind) Control: Jesse Faden (Chairwoman of the Board) Disney: Raya (Unites the World with Dragons) Dreamworks: Diana “The Crimson Paw” Foxington (A Criminal Politician? Now that’s a first) Maya and the Three: Chimi (The Skull Archer) Scooby-Doo: Daphne Blake (Makeup Swatches and Kicking Crotches) The Secret of Kells: Aisling (Fairy-ly good at keeping secrets) Leverage: Sophie Deveraux (A Grifted Actress) The Librarians: Cassandra Cillian (A Brilliant Math-Magician) Rizzoli & Isles: Jane Rizzoli (Boston’s Finest) DC: Hero: Bumblebee (Big Leadership in a Small Package) DC: Villain: Enchantress (A Hula Dance to End the World) Marvel: Hero: Suri (Takes Up the Mantle) Marvel: Villain: Black Cat (The Purrfect Thief) Kiki’s Delivery Service: Kiki (Little Witch Postal Service) Promised Neverland: Emma (Protective Big Sister) Full Metal Alchemist: Winry Rockbell (A Riveting Character) Fate Stay Night: Medusa (Rides into Battle)

Can you do Ghostface next time? As Scream 6 has arrived, it would be cool!

I'd love to see your take on making Yuji Itadori from Jujutsu Kaisen. I've been wanting to play someone like him for a while, but I just can't seem to get it right.

Am I wrong, or would this work pretty well for an Aang build?

I would love to see if you could do Delsin from infamous 2nd son!!

A infamous build

Just boosting the algorithm

Excellent Nickelback meme sir

Monks OP

How about a Warded Man (book from the Demon Cycle series)?

Yo best FF game gets a mention

I'm surprised he didn't go storm sorcerer

How about Sarah Kerrigan from the Starcraft series?

what did you do to the main video(not ad) sound, it's perfect. crisp.

Just realized that you forgot his vampire powers.

Are you gonna do Delsin next?

Watching this...im curious about delsin, ive tried a couple times it works if you focus on one element

'You could be labeled as angle or a devil." Was this intentional...?

11:55 did he really say “Angle or a Deble”?

Sometimes you dont need a special persona to make a difference, neither powers but that is a little more boring, and we are all here to let our powers drive to a path made by ourselves (Kinda like Tangle the lemur! but a little more anti-hero oriented, still a build for her would be neat as a fellow asphalt jungle parcourir, Sir Tulok, please? Although he might like racoons more) Cole MacGrath, the Electric Man, The Terrorist, Coach, however you call him, was a simple bike messenger who in the middle of a work got called by Kessler to open the package that would unleash ground zero and awake the electrokinesis powers within him, now he must take part on the afterevents of the Ground Zero event, that will shape the destiny of Empire City's inhabitants and Cole will play a key part and that not even his own tattoos are sure what the final result will be.

Can you please make a jujutsu kaisen build next?

Draconic resiience doesn't stack with martial arts, but for this build, if I followed it right, using DR for your AC instead of your MA bonus, he's better off. When he first multiclass's, his Wis is still only 13, for a +1 to his AC. Going Draconic instead boosts his AC by 2 more points than his Martial Arts would.

*Before watching* Thief Rogue/Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer. *After watching* Yeah, Ascendent Dragon Monk works better. Excellent as always good sir.

Dear god, a doge meme in 2023? Respect!

How to play Kurumi Tokisaki

Any chance you could build Asura from Asura’s Wrath?

would you say that with how much these games value choices, they're... infamous for it?

Vergil dmc all forms please 🙏

Hey, think you'd be up for taking on the classes from Darkest Dungeon if possible?

Ever played Virtua Fighter?

I want to see the main character from ghostwire Tokyo.

An angle?!?!

Can you do M3gan next?
