Elven Accuracy 5e

Which 5e Classes Make the Most of Elven Accuracy?

Elven Accuracy is best on builds that:

• Have a reliable, repeatable way to get advantage on the attack roll they want.
• Ideally are either CHA or DEX-based, thanks to some number crunching by Reddit user SnaleKing.

Artificer: Artificer is a very versatile class, so it’s hard to say whether or not this will make a substantial impact. Artificers will more often than not be using their INT for attack rolls, so this can work with just about any build. Unfortunately, none of the builds have a reliable way to get advantage which makes this feat subpar.

Barbarian: You won’t be able to benefit from this at all since barbarians don’t typically use any of the stats associated with this feat. Dex barbarians are not worth the effort at all.

Bard: Bards typically are a mix of spellcasting and ranged attacks so that they can benefit from this feat some of the time. That said, this feat is far from a must-have.

Cleric: This feat focuses on damage dealing and attacks, something most Domains aren’t too concerned about. Unfortunately, for the Domains that want to be attacking, they’re usually melee Strength builds, which this feat doesn’t support.

Druid: While you may not get the maximum benefit of this feat, spellcasting druids can make use of it. Circle of the Shepherd druids that use the Hawk Spirit totem can abuse this feat by trading their reaction for advantage on attack rolls.

Fighter: Dex fighters can be absurd, and this feat makes it even more so. With the number of attacks you get, this can easily get out of hand quickly if you can find some way to gain advantage. Samurai subclasses are probably the best for this, as they can use their Fighting Spirit ability for repeatable advantage three times a day.

Monk: Similar to fighters, Dex-based Monks can get some good use out of this. However, they will struggle to get consistent advantage rolls.

Paladin: You can definitely pick up this feat if you want to go with a Dex paladin. You’ll be best off going as an Oath of Vengeance paladin since you can get easy advantage with your Channel Divinity.

Ranger: Dex is essential for most rangers, which works with this feat. While subclasses outside of Beast Master may not get a lot of advantage, you can at least get plenty of use when it does come up.

Rogue: Most rogues will want to pick this up if they want to play as an elf. They have tons of ways to get advantage, especially with the Steady Aim optional rule. And paired with Sneak Attacks; Elven Accuracy can be monstrous. Arcane Tricksters, Assassins, Inquisitives, Scouts, and Swashbucklers also all get extra features to achieve a near constant stream of attacks with advantage.

Sorcerer: Being a CHA caster means you'll get some good use from this feat if you use spell attacks and can get advantage. Wild Magic Sorcerers are the only subclass with repeatable advantage, but it relies entirely on your DM for multiple uses at the end of the day.

Warlock: If you wanna sling eldritch blast with triple advantage, you might want this. The best way to do this is by picking Pact of the Chain and using your familiar to give you the Help action every turn, so you always have advantage. Keep in mind, this will only get you advantage on the first beam you shoot, not any subsequent beams.

Wizard: Wizards have access to plenty of spell attacks but don't have any features to grant them advantage. I suggest picking some more relevant feats over this, like Magic Initiate.
