    D&D 5E Barbarian 'Unarmored Defense'

    I believe it's trying to balance featured against items. An AC 16 fighter received disadvantage on stealth. Anything higher is too expensive for a lvl one player. But later on, you have less magic item enhancement opportunities, because you're not wearing as much. Sure, you can wear a ring or...

    D&D 5E Barbarian 'Unarmored Defense'

    I suppose we disagree on the fact that just because something asks you to use another ability that it would require/suggest you to dump what is clearly designed to be the class's main ability.

    D&D 5E Barbarian 'Unarmored Defense'

    Have you considered the fact that barbs are one of the classes that really don't need a higher AC? I don't mean this in a rude way, just maybe that there are a couple things to really look at when it comes up survivability for this class, and AC is kinda the lowest on the totem pole. The higher...
