Just a remark, it is not on every table that those "offender" feats wreak havoc. In mine, I don't know if my players that use said feats are downright incompetent or if the other players are tactical geniuses, but I can't discern any problematic spotlight imbalance during combat or even overall...

Wow, this is a really different way for building a character. I have never picked a class randomly or a race. I may have some weird paths to go on my train of thought, though. Last time I was planning to play a sorcerer inspired by the lines "power overwhelming" I started with a somewhat...

Oh, now I got it. 6th level chromatic orb crit is 16d8, avg 72, ouch! This is at the same ballpark of a disintegrate. I wouldn't try it just counting on luck to get me that crit, but it suddenly gets more appealing in the hands of a diviner who just happened to roll a 20 on their portent in the...

Oh, so you rolled the stats in order? I was wondering where the idea of a swashbuckling cleric came from, I guess this explains. Really nice!

Yes, my assessment sounded harsher than what I intended. All the above is fair and true. But.. I wouldn't go as far as call it "pretty good", for me it feels more of a situational/backup option.

I understood by Aldarc post that warlords should be available regardless of optional rules availability, in contrast to the current hypothetical options for warlord-y heroes, that hang on those optional rules.

This is a matter of opinion, though. I would not say they have so far avoided it, but instead that there have been at least some experimenting.

Do you really think so? Isn't it completely outclassed by scorching ray against any enemy that is not fire resistant/imune?

The feat increases your fly speed, but does not require you to have a flying speed in the first place. So, what exactly is it supposed to do? There seems to be something missing.... ... anyhow, apart from the spelling mistake, lack of capital letters and punctuation, it sounds fun! ;)

Use "us" as much as you like here, as more than one already qualifies, and you are definitely not alone.

Good call, nothing to add that was not mentioned by other fellow posters. Anyway, I keep reading the thread title as "Feat with no Options", go figure.

One should be doing way more than just taking a feat to be honored as a "warlord". Otherwise, it is just self-entitlement.

Oh, it happened as I expected, even though I was actually hoping for a dwarven comeback, hahaha

Just a question somewhat tangentially related to the main topic. As you mentioned you don't put a premium at primary attribute maxing: do you also create warriors with more balanced stats, for example not dumping str assuming your bladesinger and tempest cleric are dex-based to attack?

Axe of the Dwarvish Lords 2 Sword of Kas 6 Someone ready to deliver the killing blow?

I also find the name of the class barbarian quite dumb.

To me it seems the name of the class implies something else than just a martial buffer on the heads of some people (myself included). And that seems to have a significant impact on their acceptability of the class (not necessarily my case here, as I can just ignore the name). Giving the class...

Just to clarify, this was not a snark or complaint, I really am clueless about the appeal of this class. Somebody posted somewhere in this thread that warlords are supposed to be the big guys, high level stuff. Well, I am not native English speaker, which may impair my judgement of the meaning...

Axe of the Dwarvish Lords 12 Rod of Seven Parts 15 Sword of Kas 8 Adding a little water to the broth.

So in you evaluation, not dumping an otherwise "dumpable" stat at character creation and then afterwards not picking two ABIs to maximize your attack and improve other aspects of the PC but instead picking only one feat that maximizes your attack but otherwise provides you with nothing else is...
