@GreenstoneWalker Depends I guess. I was thinking so long as the ingredients are on-hand (or in the bag) I'd be able to instantly craft a potion.

Very nice. I can't believe I missed finding this. However, I was hoping I could find a certain build that sticks to the official 5e PHB. Will wait for a few more days maybe someone could suggest a build as well. Cheers! :)

@nwp Yeah. Kinda realized that after going through possible scenarios with friends.

Thanks markovchain. Yeah, this makes sense. Guess it's just kinda hard to picture why the Shield is needed if the result of the Fighting Style is to actually just give out an aura/intent that you want to protect a creature.
