[QUOTE="EnWorld#0000, post: 7229140, member: 6804878"] I'm making a new PC to join a 6th level game. I get some gold, an uncommon item and a huge latitude in creation options. I'd like to use Gauntlets of Ogre power, for backstory purposes. After playing mostly Wizards in 5E, I'm curious about other classes. Using the standard point buy system for abilities, and assume all the other important roles are filled in the party (rogue, cleric, barbarian, wizard), and that the adventuring day is standard length (no long rests after 2 battles, etc). Because I've played mostly Wizards, I'm used to crappy DPR ranged cantrips and spells that tend to change the encounter (like Slow or Polymorph). I'm hoping for high DPR & some reasonable versatility. I've never played a Paladin before, so I was leaning towards one (Vengeance or Treachery) with high CHA. Then take a few levels in Warlock (for EB, etc.) or Sorcerer (metamagic) to fill in the ranged/utility gap. I've heard Darkness & Warlock's Devil's Sight or Darkness Sorcery is fun, and also that Paladin smiting is fun with Sorcery. Some of the non-standard races also look interesting, like Bugbears, Kobolds, etc. [/QUOTE]
