D&D 5E Yes, No, Warlord

[Psikerlord#]

In my view you can already get a warlord like PC - fighter with maneuvers, inspiring leader feat, and healer feat. Done.

Poll: Which is your favorite warlord poll?

I really don't know why people feel these polls will make any difference to Wizards of the Coast. D&D5E has been published, and it took two years of playtesting to get there. It's not as if they are about to review it anytime soon, and even if they did, it wouldn't be to debate about the inclusion of a divisive Class that is technically already catered for by the Battlemaster Fighter subtype.

'Unlurk' To be honest it's divisive threads like this or the numerous other ones on Enworld and other forums other the years which probably keeps WOTC away from and not willing to touch the Warlord with a 10' pole. Just my opinion. 'Relurk'

I've voted yes, but that's not really the thing.

I have no personal interest in a warlock class, but I'd be happy to see one (even if it was a reinterpretation of the existing 5e options) that satisfied the people who miss it.

I think my problem is that while I'd like to see a warlord like option enter the game I also don't want it to function the way a lot of warlord supporters would like it to. Mainly the lazy lord. I know why it's a popular build I just dislike the idea of a character who is specifically built to be useless by themselves. In my games I stress a lot of solo play. In my last session the party members met up a few times but didn't actually have any encounters while they were with each other. All of their encounters were solo. It is why the fighter subclass option works well for me, because they are still a viable character when by themselves.

No I don't want to see it in the game, and the more I am being asked the more I hate them, but I will make sure to vote 'no' to the neverending polls over and over again.

do you have the same problem with pacafist clerics?
