1. Optimo (Espacio) is the name of a long-running (since 1997), Sunday-night club based in Glasgow, Scotland.

JD Twitch and JG Wilkes, the club's founders and resident DJs, are also collectively known as Optimo and regularly tour at clubs and festivals throughout the world. Renowned for its diverse music policy, the club retains a reputation for adventurous innovation and hedonism.

Countless well established music artists have played at Optimo. Examples include Franz Ferdinand, The Rapture, Peaches, Isolée, Shitdisco, Chicks on Speed, Liquid Liquid, LCD Soundsystem, Hot Chip, Richie Hawtin, The Long Blondes, The Presets, Voxtrot, The Go! Team, The Kills, Sons and Daughters, Ivan Smagghe and Datarock.

The technical side of the club has been written about in the Guardian. Twitch and Wilkes were described by Pitchfork Media in 2006 as being "one of the best DJ duos going right now". In November 2006, Optimo appeared on Radio 1's "Essential Mix".

Twitch and Wilkes have also remixed countless artists. Twitch remixes under the 'Optimo (Espacio)' name in collaboration with Dave Clark (Who does not DJ at the club). JG Wilkes remixes and releases music under the tag Naum and is signed to the Kompakt Extra label.

In addition to their weekly club residency and hectic touring schedule, the pair also run the OSCARR record label (Optimo Singles Club and Related Recordings) and have released music from artists such as BIS, Pro Forma, and most recently The Parsonage.

The club celebrated its 10th year anniversary in November 2007.

@Hold My Beer I don't actually see it that way. I think a lot of the time is just a difference in philosophy causing contention.

I have found there's typically 2 core groups of players. Either you develop a build around a concept or a concept around a build.

I think min-maxing tends to get a bad rap because if you aren't explicitly building for power it feels like the min-maxer is either 1. intentionally not letting anyone else shine or 2. that you are actively forced to build for optimaztion over flavor/what fits the character or you won't be able to compete.

And then as a min-max it can feel hypocritical when someone ends up with a powerful build, even if it was just because they thought it was cool or they just accidentally fumbled into a powerful combo.

I don't think either way is wrong, I just think if everyone at the table didn't approach their build from the same axis, it can cause issues. I personally am lucky that everyone in my playgroup builds from a character concept or just thinks a subclass looks neat. I've literally built a character around a name I thought sounded cool. I'm here for the flavor and if a powerful build comes out of that, than that's great.

Something I failed to discuss: Metal Armor and Druids! I know not every table has a strict prohibition, but I'm sure many will (and many players will restrict themselves in the interest of RP besides), add to that the fact that we don't have the STR to wear Heavy Armor without a move penalty, and I think most of us probably end up with Hide or Studded Leather and a lower AC!

On the Dungeon Dudes' vid regarding the perfect party composition, I suggested a party consisting of a Gloom Stalker Ranger, Shadow Monk, Twilight Cleric, and Starry or Moon Druid; kind of a Conclave of Night. So I approve of this theme. :-)

Just recently found your videos. I have to say this in regards to "op" builds. I got into table top dnd for my son. He was having trouble with grasping the "reality" of his situations and making educated decisions. Dnd, ironically helped with this. I was able to build stories for him that forced him to take in his surroundings and make decisions. After getting killed by traps over and over, he started thinking about those things. After getting frustrated by boss fights being "too hard" he began to start using tactics. So its been good for him... All that being said, builds like this are great for getting new players started, or helping to keep new players "alive" so they can have fun. This is also a great "npc" follower to help small party sessions..... So, this is my scattered way of saying thanks!

@Rob Vera This is exactly what I am doing for my nephews/nieces that I'm playing with (they're all elementary-school age).

Also for any DM struggling with the twilight temp HP bubble. Remember stun, paralyze, and petrify, as well as many spells ie. hypnotic pattern; all apply incapacitated without requiring to knock out the player.

@fluffy_walrus

3y↑4

Yeah, for most campaigns, TC players will have 1 or 2 uses of Twilight Sanctuary between rests. It's a very limited resource, and fairly easy to disrupt. Even if it does manage to stay up, it's easy to adjust when the only factor that's really changing is people getting temp HP.

@dapperdrifter5449

As soon as you said Custom Lineage I was like "I hope the feat is Chef." It's a nice one for some power and can be nicely fluffy for RP that gets overlooked.

Ikr, it just fits so well for someone who is watching over those at night at the campfire/ hearth. I made the same choice on my twilight cleric for Strahd.

@atomicpork

3y↑1

I actually gave my Life Cleric / Lore Bard the Chef feat. He's the only healer/primary caster in the party so he's mostly focused on keeping the party alive through various tactics, and he is meant to be a bit of an epicurean.

@diablerietandino1941

I agree, I think too often the actual RP in RPG gets overlooked. It's nice to crunch numbers and optimize and tweak, but I think it's all for naught if the character just doesn't make any sense. If it's just a sum of subclasses and feats that tell us little of the actual character other than "yeah this is a good dpr choice"

@embergeos

3y↑35

Imo the way that you’re quantifying healing is the right way to go, but in the interest of accuracy, you should call it something like “possible damage negated”, because temp hp negates damage just like healing, but works differently. Just my 2 cents.

@GrompEconomics

3y↑113

I feel that supports are really appealing at least to me, is that I am someone that my friends label me as a person that ONLY plays crazy optimized builds. I love your builds, but I’d never use them out of the fact that my group wouldn’t let me. BUT a support build is a lot more “under the radar” to optimized detection ha. Great videos, seriously :)

@user-lt6ho5kt7v

3y↑19

One of the greatest hypocrisies of the optimisation stigma. Everyone's complaining a kit your hexadins or coffe locks but nobody complaints about wizard with wall of force and familiar casting additional concentration spell.

People accuse of spotlight hogging optimisers while generally what they do themselves is taking this spotlight and cry when someone else enters it

@user-lt6ho5kt7v

3y↑3

@O K first that does not justify the stigmatisation hypocrisies. And second, the idea of an optimal solution has it in the name: it is the best solution and everything else pales in comparison. So yes, while gwm + Pam does not offer you a choice, it is meant to be that as an optimal solution.

The thing is,you don't have to optimise for absolute best. Then we'd be playing the same thing.

So not sure how what you said justifies this hypocrisy expands on anything that has been said so far.

@user-lt6ho5kt7v

3y↑1

@O K I don't think I agree it is that easy. Unless you are playing martial character that is. Then yes, it is pretty straightforward. In other cases it is not so clear cut

@ryansprenkle6356

3y↑2

@user-lt6ho5kt7v

3y↑5

@Ryan Sprenkle I, respectfully, disagree. The hypocrisy is not in different philosophy. It's in different attitude towards the same approach of character building with different target in mind. Firstly, in my experience people tend to have problems with optimisation when it is about damage or skills or social situations (yes, you can do that) and have no problem with your chronurgy wizard just saving everyone's ass behind the scenes. I call for people to acknowledge that spotlight hogging problem has nothing to do with optimisation and has everything to do with people. Optimisation is just an easier avenue to fulfill that desire to be center of attention. But I saw people with generic Vhuman McFighterson with flail (of all weapons) being the spotlight hog who wants to do everything by himself. I also want people to acknowledge their hypocrisy and equally condemn optimisation for support or tanking and optimisation for damage because when it is skewed like this it begs the question of: are you really mad at optimisers or do you want to do what they are doing all by yourself? Or they should just acknowledge their biases. They want to be badass, good. I want it too. But why should my desire to be a badass should comply with their imaginary boundaries of what I can do to achieve my goal if I have no business playing with them

Secondly, in one of my campaigns I played bloodhunter/barbarian Pam gwm and it was basically a shrooms berserker (it is Norse mythology inspired campaign and we needed a heavy sustained dpr) and I made it very apparent in how much flavour I put into the guy. You can actually have your cake and eat it too. Meaning you can be kickass at roleplay and kick some serious ass in combat as well. And you can think on a story as you thinking concept through without one being introduced strictly after the other

One big thing that needs attention is the new Tasha's feature for Druids- Wild Companion. At 2nd level, you can expend a use of Wild Shape to cast Find Familiar. It's a huge boon for a build that makes little use of Wild Shape, but could definitely make use of an owl familiar, both for thematic reasons and so you can spread the Cure Wounds love a bit easier.

@DnDDeepDive

3y↑11

Truth - my biggest concern is that it takes a use of Wild Shape and we only get two per short rest, meaning we might be without our starry form unless we’re pretty sure we won’t have another fight before our next rest, and that makes me sad :(.

@TheHandgunhero

3y↑10

Take Magic Initiate in Wizard if you want a free usage of Find Familiar without competing with Wild Shape, but using it as an ambulance is great for consistently using cure wounds over healing word.

@Nigthmar

3y↑25

I took the Feat Chef in two different artificers, the extra healing and THP are nice, but the flavor (je) of the feat is just amazing. Been the chef of the group is so much fun, and my Battlesmith already has a famous dish in a Curse of Strahd Campaing, literally raised the moral of the whole town after the city was devastated by giant spiders.

@Tanthalasa83

@KevinVideo

As someone who's always forced into the healer of the group (because absolutely no one else ever will even if it's a TPK every time because they demand to fight constantly), this build is something I can get behind. The DM has banned the Twilight Domain so I'll have to make do with the Life Domain.

@luciusvoldaren

51w

I don’t know why people ban things. It just shows that the DM can’t handle what’s thrown at them and it’s a huge red flag.

It’s a lot easier to just have the “you can do whatever bullshit you want, but just know that whatever you pull on me, I can pull on you.” Mindset.

Plus You can stun or incapacitate a Twilight cleric and completely lock them.

@GundamAngelicDevil

3y↑8

I was pondering a Twilight Cleric the other day (needed a backup character) and crazy enough, I thought Chef as a Feat as well!
Though it was more because we had a joke at the table that any Darkvision is considered Vegan Vision so I wanted to make the cleric that's a super vegan (since 300 ft. Darkvision) and she'd make vegan lunches and snacks.

@DnDDeepDive

ha!

@nessesaryschoolthing

I imagine the larger your party is, the more a dedicated healer would get to do and the more relevant they would become. I've heard of old-school parties that were more like 9 fighters, a thief, a mage, and a cleric. Then a heal-happy cleric would be worth it.

Its a bit unfortunate that the star druid makes you emit light, which would cancel out the twilight cleric emitting darkness that enables you to fly. Whenever you use the chalice form it would block flight. This isn't the end of the world but is a situational consideration you have to make while running this character.

@rodneydavis9172

3y↑10

You just start flying first then activate it. The aspect of continual flight is not dependent on remaining in the dim light, only the initial start of flight. With how the wording is at least of twilight.

Minor thing, but when you use Starry Form, you shed bright light in a 10 foot radius, which I would assume means you are in bright light. This would mean that while in your Starry Form, you can't use Steps of Night, maybe making the enhanced form of the dragon constellation a bit more appealing. Love this character idea, btw!

It was insane. Take Resilient Con and War caster and you will virtually never fail a Concentration check and can never roll below a 16 as long as dragon constellation is up.

I LOVE the concept. As I am planning on playing a twilight cleric I definetly now want to do a 2lvl dip into star druid !

But I think I would rather go cleric 18 - druid 2.
As i think the twlight sanctuary upgrade would ultimately bring more to the table.
(+2AC and advantage on dex saves might just result in a lot of damage negation wich is another form of healing)

Like you mentioned your build is about crunching numbers and its unrealistic to imagine having to heal every single round with EVERYTHING you got.

@WunDumDorf

2y↑1

Starting a campaign this weekend (hopefully) playing a character based off this concept. Starting at level 2. He’s a Feylost Tortle who’s parents died very shortly after his birth. Unable to fend for himself he was lured to the Feywild by a pixie named Glimmer who befriended/kind of raised him. He eventually returned from the Feywild to learn about his origins, but feels a call back to the Feywild that continues to grow as his adventuring life continues on. I thought the Tortle (with their beliefs about the sun and moon) was a good fit for this concept.

@davidpritchett855

Something a lot of folks don't think about is the fact that you can cast a touch spell through a familiar. Especially considering most of our spell slots are theoretically being used as cure wounds this really helps us heal from the back row with an owl, very thematic, that flies by briefly alighting on our allies so we can pulse them with cure wounds. The only thing is it will tie down a bonus action to command our familiar to fly by.

@DnDDeepDive

great idea

@TheRobversion1

why would it tie your owl's bonus action? commanding familiars are free actions.

@davidpritchett855

@Rob Vera ah, I didn't realize It was a free action, I haven't used a familiar in game yet. All the better. I just assumed it was like a ranger beast that you had to direct with a bonus action.

@TheRobversion1

After the short yesterday, my prediction was shepherd druid and life cleric but this sounds way more fun to play, i’ve even got ideas for what that custom lineage would be. Hello moon aasimar 🌚🌝

Also a consideration for early levels. The Healer feat is a good choice. 1d6+6 hp as an action when using the healer kit. This is good if your out of spell slots or dont have healing spells or dont want to waste healing spells

@DarkwoIf0330

I imagine this character as a master chef that serves dishes that heal. The twilight sanctuary could take the form of a dumpling shop or restaurant, then the smell and aura bring so much comfort it gives the temp hit points. Passing out dumplings or dishes that heal.

I’ve been playing a low charisma circle of stars druid for about 6 months now and I have him blabber on about astrology all the time and give people horoscopes they didn’t ask for. Augury is flavoured as my own horoscope. I actually took two levels of Div Wizard for additional flavour (I was feeling a little too optimized for the particular group).

@Karina-Loves-Andreas

I'm new to D&D, been "chosen" to be my group's primary healer. I love animals, so like most newbies, picking a build that feels like an idealized version of myself. Leveling up to level 2 shortly, decided my half elf (I'm half Swedish, half American, half Jewish, half Lutheran IRL) would join Circle of Shepherd. But your Circle of Stars Druid with the random sharing of horoscopes is TOO FUNNY!! Maybe "next time", lol! That idea makes Circle of Stars much more appealing as a character, I think. I hope you have fun with it!!😁💖😘

32:39, Aura of Vitality is a bomb of healing outside of combat. The spell lasts 1 minute, or 10 rounds. that 20d6 of healing to hand out to a party of 5th level characters. You can spend one third level spell getting the party to full most of the time in these early levels.

@tuaa33

This is my favourite healing spell. This is why I choose usually Halfling mark of healing and get metamagic to extend the spell. And that’s all heals party need. Additionally I can build the character for any purpose I want.

@dienezdarcprowlyr9406

Appreciate the diversion from just damage dealing builds. There are many different ways to play than just combat and its great to see optimizers in other catagories.

@orangeflame568

Gentle repose is a nice spell to have on a scroll or two so that you don't need to keep revivify memorized.
Edit: of course if you are going scrolls you could just put revivify on a scroll, but gentle repose is a far cheaper option to use on an NPC you might want to save and have their family in your debt.

At level 14, I would take the interception FS to allow us to use our reaction to also block some damage aimed at an ally near us. adds extra support!

@ZomgLolPants

One of my favorite characters in this line is a hybrid life domain cleric and College of creation bard that I'm currently playing. The ability to animate objects and have them basically be a free party member is great for soaking hits that otherwise would have hit one of your allies, and with the chef feat stacking with song of rest your buds get back on their feet easily.

We have a Twilight Cleric in our current campaign, and yeah, he's AWESOME! That passive heal is insane. And then we let him mosey into combat behind the tanks with Spirit Guardians up... and everything dies.

I like this build with a Tortle, keeps ac high, and still allows to use animal shape if you need it!

Totem Barbarian is another godly (possibly OP) subclass. Mostly because of the first bear totem, but there is a lot of good stuff in there.

@craigauty8874

Love these videos, they keep me thinking of new ways to combine abilities from different classes. I did theory craft a build that can heal an average of 3,648 points or max 5,168 points as an action once per short rest from level 17. The circumstances are impossible to meet in a regular game and it requires a friendly wizard and 1 rare item to set it up, but if your DM likes mass combat between armies it is possible.

@gdtms28

2y↑1

Late to the comment party, but I'm doing a variation to this build: Mark of Detection Half-Elf for the race (it has spells I want/need), and Gift of the Metallic Dragon for one of the feats (frees up a prepared spell and free, shareable shield.) I don't know how that feat made it to print, but it will be fantastic. Starting from lvl 10 for a 5e reskin of Tomb of Horrors. When my party mentioned the desire for a healer, I knew where to look!

@d4: D&D Deep Dive OOOOooowwwww YEAH! in a Curse of Strahd game and what an MVP this lad has been. The theme of this guardian of night protecting his allies in a gloomy dark setting is on brand. I know magic items don't usually make it into your builds but another little synergy I gleefully snatched up was "The Moon Sickle" from Tasha's. Just another free 1D4 of healing or a flat 4 HP when Beacon of Hope is up. Just another Twilight/Moon/Stars themed cherry on top.

If you want to increase survivability take sheildmaster! Magic initiate for the shield spell would be good too.

@gregsquire9704

forgot to mention that the biggest difference between custom linage from "Tasha's" and variant human is the fact that instead of a 2point increase in one ability (custom) you get 1point increase in two abilities (variant)

@theblindbuildergrandminuti5648

The themes of twilight and stars is great, and damn does it do work.
I’d probably do a life with stars cause the efficiency of a 1st level with that combo makes me smile, that and I love the use of aura of vitality.

@sebastianduesing2150

omg, this is almost exactly what i'm playing right now! my starlight cleric/druid is level 8 currently, and i've got her at 3 druid for healing spirit + 5 cleric for beacon of hope. she's also custom lineage, though i took shadow touched for invisibility and inflict wounds. the build is so much fun. i'm an optimizer playing with a group that runs the gamut from non-optimized to semi-optimized, and playing such a powerful support makes me feel like i'm making the whole party more optimal.

I just realized a weird interaction...you can't fly while using the star ability. It causes you to emit bright light, and flight for twilight clerics is contingent on being in dim light. But if your aura makes dim light...my head hurts

Two effects that trigger at the same time or conflict: you can choose how and which abilities go first.

You can just make it that since your Twilight level is higher, your twilight sanctuary overpowers your Starry forms light, without canceling it’s activation.

@davidkessler6805

I just played this as a Tortle build in a 15 lvl One Shot and it was amazing. I started the boss fight by casting Sanctuary on myself and that allowed to spend all my energy buffing and healing my party. It was a great deal of fun.

@williamlove6165

I'm currently playing a twilight cleric of Helm. I've found a good heal combo for the twilight cleric.
Twilight sanctuary, beacon of hope, life transference.

@calvinwithun6512

Yes a healer!!! No idea to what extent this was inspired by an older comment of mine or not but I am thrilled to see this haha

My current preferred healer is a Divine Soul Sorcerer 19 / Life Cleric 1. Metamagic healing and control spells are just too good to pass up imo... Play as an Evil Fallen Aasimar who just wants people to buy into his health insurance and life insurance sca-- plans

@duncanohio

Chef is a great lvl 1 feat! Super way to give survivability to baby characters and give rp opportunities during snacking.

@euchiron

I would try this build. I personally like the DMG spell point variant instead of spell slots for the flexibility when I play a caster, but I have to admit I don't know if this option is considered good or bad, weak or strong.

@arf101088

the chef feat is so fun and i feel cool using it. i got the chef feat for one of the characters i have. me and the rest of my table was playing squishy ranged characters, so we decided that our support should be pretty balanced between everyone. our ranger is our skill monkey and scout, our artificer often uses artillerist's shield cannon and tinkering/infusions, and i make use of support spells and focus fire (this focus fire actually being from a version of the tempest cleric/storm sorcerer build, actually!). the chef feat also is part of my contribution to the team's support.

@deathiscoming7

As a druid you have a prohibition against wearing armor or shields that are made of metal. Unless DM fiat your AC probably won't be as high.

@adamkaris

3y↑2

Mechanically, there isn't a prohibition. Nothing mechanically happens to them if they do.
So if your dm is "enforcing" it, then you should also be able to make a a similar type of armor out of creature parts.
Heck, Scale Mail has it in the name and that would put you at potentially an 18 ac

@deathiscoming7

@adamkaris agreed. But once again up to how much the DM is going to enforce.

@ReverendDamien

3y↑1

Druids will not wear armor or use shields made of metal. So this being a role-playing game means your druid chooses not to wear metal armor.
Scale Mail. This armor consists of a coat and leggings (and perhaps a separate skirt) of leather covered with overlapping pieces of metal, much like the scales of a fish.

@DnDDeepDive

Good call - I often forget about this little never-ending argument because our DM doesn't tend to stick to this prohibition. Many will have to find a way around it!

Aura of vitality outpaces prayer of healing for out of combat healing, 20d6 that can be split up into 2's and taken by anyone who needs it. It generally tops off a bruised party. Also, if combat ends while it is still active you don't lose the remaining charges, you just hand them out every 6 seconds til they're gone. It is insane with extended spell metamagic, bringing it to 40d6.

@Trip1ikeMe

I was thinking about taking metamagic instead of cooking, didn't realize you can extend concentration spells, thanks!

@relaxedfantasyreview

Assuming you are wearing heavy armor, not limited by the Druid class, Heavy armor master might be the Druid 8 feat I would choose. Taking three less damage from every attack, especially at higher levels when multi attacking enemies are common, makes those temp hit points from Twilight Sanctuary all the better!

@thenovicedm7966

Fantastic job on this build. I'm saving that. I was curious if you've made a build that combined the Cleric with a Gloomstalker or Rogue build? Curious to see how that works out if you capped the Cleric at 6th Level and proceeded with other class/sub-class builds.

@jdrt10

Cosmic Omen for Star Druid kinda has the flaw that it is a limited resource and you have to declare to use it before the roll, since the wording is "when they are about to"

@blackgaurdsmash

3y↑2

I think you forgot something crunching numbers. You would use your highest spell slot to cast aid each time adventure day. If you count all hit points as "healing" with a party of 4.. that's a huge boost on each damage report.

For the feat I would go a little different and grab ritual caster to get summon familiar for delivering touch spells (cure wounds) and the ritual book to add some great utility options. Possibly I would grab lucky just to make the enemy reroll crits 3 times per day as that would save a lot of damage.

@DnDDeepDive

I didn't count Aid at all, though yes, you'd very likely be using it, and potentially at a high level slot for maximum benefit.

@leegottshall5967

I'm literally playing this character (With a few stat difference since we went standard array at my table)! The build definitely does a solid job at keeping your party alive and healthy.

@TheReD91100

If I may ask, what are your abilities with Standard Array?

@theblindjedi41

3y↑1

Love the idea of combining twilight cleric and circle of stars druid. Personally I'd go cleric 18/druid 2 just to make sure I got up to 9th level spells.

@TheRobversion1

i think you can stop at cleric 17 so you can pick up 1 more level elsewhere.

@theblindjedi41

@Rob Vera True, but I can't think of anywhere that level needs to go, so why not bump up the THP we get again? I don't see any 2nd level druid spells we really want or need.

@TheRobversion1

@Evan Stafford i wouldnt want more druid levels either. Though tbh a clerics 9th level spells are meh anyway. I just want the 9th level spell slots (so i can upcast lower level spells). Personally, i'd remove another cleric level (go down to 16) and pick up 2 levels of fighter for action surge and a fighting style.

@imakuniaw

The Warcaster feat is botherline mandatory on a stars druid because of VSM component rules. The wording on Star Map makes it so that you only known (and can cast for free) Guiding Bolt if you're holding the map in your hand, but if you have a shield on the other, you then lack a free hand to actually cast the spell.

@varietasVeritas

3y↑2

Put the map on the inside of your sheild.

@dainslatton9877

1y↑1

@TRU Dat That still wouldn't be holding the map in your hand. And combining items isn't RAW or people could just attach a sword to their shield and dual wield while holding a shield. Fire1520 is right. And Warcaster is amazing for this build for other reasons as well.

@dainslatton9877

1y↑1

Warcaster is amazing for this build anyway. I'd go Eladrin (flavored as a Star Elf. Star elves were said to be Eladrin.) and keep them in Spring. Winter if you prefer, but i think Spring is gonna come in clutch sometimes. I'd take Warcaster, Fey Touched (+1 Wisdom, Silvery Barbs), +2 Wisdom, And Resilient (Constitution). Probably in that order. If you want the Extra Feat/ASI and dont mind being Custom Lineage or Variant Human, then by all means. But I dont think Chef is the best pick for this build for several reasons. And honestly, the healer having advantage against saves against Charm is really really good. So is being able to automatically succeed at moving themselves or others out of really bad situations pretty much anytime you want, and getting a bit of extra movement to get to someone and get that Spare the Dying on them if they have somehow gotten too far away from you or on the other side of some obstacle.

As someone mentioned, you can't take the Resilient Feat twice, so Resilient (Dexterity) is out, and as I pointed out you have Absorb Elements as a druid anyway. His other recommendation was Tough, but let's be honest. You have temp HP every round, you have a very upcasted Aid spell, and you're an insane healing machine with d8 HD and probably a 15 or 16 Con at any point in your career. You don't need to raise your max HP. If you still have room in your Feats/ASIs, +2 Constitution isn't a bad choice and I'd also consider +2 Dexterity or even Eldritch Adept (Armor of Shadows) if you haven't found better than basic non-metal armor and you already have a Dexterity of 16 or above for some reason (like you rolled Ability Scores and got a great Wisdom and Dex) or are planning on it. It also fits the theme well.

Could be worth mentioning that you can also dump Dexterity on this build, get a 15 Strength and wear Ringmail (which never states the rings are necessarily metal) in the hopes that someday you'll find or create some non-metal Full Plate armor. Less likely, but it's an option for those unconventional build-loving folk that like taking advantage of this rare heavy armor proficiency for a druid.

@loganeggleston9744

Great video, but I feel like a really missed opportunity here is the second level spell “warding bond”. If you have a moderate con and thus a sizable hp pool, a mountain of temp hp, and access to some of the best healing spells, then you are going to be giving your frontliner one of the biggest buffs with little downside. Made my twilight cleric and my friends moon Druid the goats of my gauntlet campaign and all it cost me was my amicable relationship with my dm lol.

@theravenousrabbit3671

Something you failed to mentioned is that you can use twilight sanctuary at the start of an adventuring day and then take a short rest; gaining back your channel divinity. You should on, average, at give your party 8 temp hp to begin with. Now this is possibly going to be disallowed by your DM but if possible, you should definitely do this.
