Hello all,
As an (always) DM, I am finally getting the chance to play in a ToA campaign. I am a huge fan of aarakocra and am very excited to be able to play one. However, I keep going back and forth about the character build and I would appreciate opinions and advice.
Mechanics and damage are important to me. But I also want the theme of the character to make sense. I plan on using a two handed weapon to fly in, kill stuff, fly away and repeat. I plan on taking Mobile at 4th level and probably D&d beyond’s Sky Warden racial feat at 8th level. I would like to still contribute something outside of combat if possible and survivability is also important in ToA. I plan on taking Outlander background.
The rest of the party will probably consist of:
gnome evoker wizard
aasimar paladin
Firbolg shepherd druid
Half elf hexblade warlock
The options I have been comparing are:
Zealot Barbarian with a greataxe
Revised Hunter Ranger with a greataxe
Kensei Monk with a battle axe
I would probably multiclass fighter after 8h level for all
I feel like the monk is the no brainer but the idea of monk just bugs me. Thoughts??
