    D&D 5E (2024) Pact Of Chain Warlock is really powerful now.

    Bladelock is best at 12, when you can get a 3rd attack and heavy weapon master (assuming you got 20 Cha first). Which is better than Paladin 11. Though I would still dip Paladin or Fighter 1 first to get armor. But then there's nothing past that until you hit. Foresight at 17. I could maybe...

    D&D 5E (2024) Pact Of Chain Warlock is really powerful now.

    Agreed. But it still multiclasses well after that. Sorcerer for quicken Eldritch Blast. Paladin or Fighter for armor and masteries. Barbarian for Rage + Armor of Agathys. Rogue for sneak attack and skills. Bard for support.

    D&D General The Purple Dragon Knights are tied to an Amethyst Dragon (confirmed)

    To be fair, the lore could be Some dragon grows up hearing about purple dragon knights. So decided to join them. And then it became a thing.

    D&D General Does anyone recall coming across any magic weapons that return when thrown...other than Dwarven Thrower, Hammer of Thunderbolts or magic boomerangs?

    There was something like bracers of infinite daggers as well, which let you conjure and throw them. 2014 artificer has it too.

    That's where the multiverse comes into play. Lord Neverember is dead in this universe, but alive in another.

    It doesn't need to affect your campaign at all. You can easily ignore it.

    Really it's the only way to explain how everyone gets a different campaign in the same world.

    Purple Dragon Knight Retooled as Banneret in D&D's Heroes of Faerun Book

    Then your just more powerful than the rest of your party who don't get one. Then your back to feats or magic item (which is DM dependant). Or a DM PC.

    So take the PDK background and the Drakewarden ranger.

    I disagree. A subclass shouldn't overshadow a class. But if you made a full pet class, then the pet would have much more power budget and be able to overshadow the master.

    Purple Dragon Knight Retooled as Banneret in D&D's Heroes of Faerun Book

    There are several feats that grow with level. Like Inspiring Leader or indirectly like Heavy Armor Master. I see no reason why a dragon feat could do it that way (i.e. HP is equal to 3*your level).

    My guess. PDK is a background, with some bonus for befriending dragons. Possibly a feat and epic boons along with it. Banneret does not have dragons. Just a support-focused fighter subclass.

    You're thinking generative AI. That's supposed to make stuff. You just need much simpler sentiment analysis. It doesn't generate anything, just counts the sentiments. I.e. 75% of the red comments where about lore changes. You can do it yourself on any modern computer. Here's a link if your...
