Path of the Projectile Warrior

Have you ever thought to yourself, "man I'd love to be a Halfling AND a Barbarian"? But then thought, "damn too bad they harbor all these negatives..." Well lucky for you unsuspecting micro Barbarian enthusiast, Path of the Projectile Warrior has got you covered. Want to feel like Buzz Lightyear, and go to infinity AND beyond?

Path of the Projectile Warrior is a small race (and dwarf) exclusive subclass for the Barbarian in Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition. It centers around movement and momentum for those short yet hearty Barbarians.

Restriction: Dwarf or Small Races Only

Only dwarves and small races can follow the Path of the Projectile Warrior.

Your DM can lift this restriction to better suit the campaign. The restriction exists for thematic reasons and may not apply to your DM’s setting and themes.

Devastating Hurl

When you choose this path at 3rd level, you gain the ability to throw yourself at enemies as if you were the projectile.

Whilst wielding a weapon with the heavy property as an action, you can throw yourself in a straight line within your (Strength Modifier/2)*10 in feet by making a ranged weapon attack with strength against the target's (if present) Armor Class. On a hit, you land adjacent to the target and deal the weapons damage to the target causing them to fall prone, you also take the rolled damage in recoil but do not fall prone. On a miss, you land at the end of your possible throwing range falling prone and receive the weapon's damage in recoil.

While you are raging, your Devastating Hurl range becomes your Strength Modifier*10 in feet. In addition, when you hit a creature with this feature you deal additional damage equal to 1d6 for every 10 feet of distance to reach the target. This additional damage is applied to all recoil during Devastating Hurl.

If your Devastating Hurl is ended short by a wall or other object a miss is applied in that situation.

Ricochet

Beginning at 6th level, when you use Devastating Hurl while raging, you can ricochet yourself off of a single wall or object in your path allowing you to readjust your direction and be hurled the remaining distance.

Ace Missile

At 10th level, you gain expertise in Athletics, Acrobatics and Performance.

Desolating Hurl

Starting at 14th level, the additional rage damage on Devastating Hurl increases to 1d12 per 10 feet of distance.
