Depends on edition. Generally dont use it on modern games. Happy to use it in OSR type games. Everything on your list is great. 2E is my first with generous DM.

This. I haven't seen most people use those cantrips irl. A few own tashas. True strikes also new. A good gish build is complicated. 2 of us know how 1 of them is me.

Yeah synergy is usually happenstance. Think I posted the "ideal" 5.5 party earlier. I want access to "key" spells and lots of damage if youre talking about combat synergy.

Pakadin dips rough. Also be tempted by that second level for smites.

Way I see it. One sie effect is peopke posting online and theyre using expensive battlemats and models like a ship and theyre very good at painting. Essentially they've built a diorama as their game table. Looks great.

Casuals dont know about the blade cantrips and some even here on ENworld dont allow 5.0 stuff. Technically compatible but unbalanced.

At highervlevel year. Tier 1 not so much. Note I dont rate Barbarian that highly later on (relative to Fighter/Paladn/Monk) and bladesingers is one of the better wizards along with illusionist.

Lots of people also dont actually play the gane or think level 13. ENworlds basically come around to the idea D&D is really a 10 level game. In real games the best classes are the ones that get the best stuff level 3-6 imho. Is the wizard a beast later on? Absolutely. Youll probably...

Wonder if all the people claiming pr8ces are fine will keep saying that if D&D beyond ever gets closed. I'm not paying $15 to rent product. PDF $5 auto buy, $10 maybe $15 continuing WotC lackluster slop pass. There's basically 0 good 5.5 products. One of the Faerun books seems the best the...

We played some 1E adventures somewhat recently. The book keeping was a big turn off. Amount of loot was insane. Still has fun until level 6 or 7.

Warlocks have the option of taking lots of origin feats. Theres three magic initiate ones. Find ones worth up casting all the time. Warlocks also get tashas hideous laughter and are charisma based. Spells worth upcasting. Command, Chromatic orb, tashas, hold person and monster. So...

This. The casuals dont care and even the veterans dont care that much. Wife can powergame very well buy she usually plays a weaker character vs the best. Eg she played celestial Warlock vs another one. Next character is a knowledge cleric. I'm kinda if similar. Pick something fun but I'll...

Players dont really plan what to play in a party. Combos in see are more what the party can do. If I could design a whole party team synergy would beat 4E st least in terms of killing stuff faster. Party would probably be something like fighter, paladin, cleric, lore bard, sorcerer...

As DM no. It took 3 sessions. That's using RAW xp bucket and a variety of encounters. Players gave feedback later over what they found the hardest. Solo critters steamrolled., fodder pointless multiple mid CR stuff and CR 2-4 fodder worked the best. But took the longest to play out. Spread...

CR 19 plus friends. High encounter. 5 encounters that day. To really grind them down it was 9 of various difficulties.

I had 5 or 6.

Thought I had better add it. Fairly confident Scrine wouldn't take it wrong but you never know.

That's means bupkiss in grand scheme of things. I suspect milestone is more popular but I would like to see a large survey result or D&D beyond data to back it up.

True but you dont need proficiency in con saves as much as most wizards. Level 5 +9 saves while singing? +7 at 3?

Ranger dip if you care about masteries imho.
