Whatsup guys!
Need some help picking a Class/Subclass for a new character mid-campaign.
- My D&D Background:
Intermediate Player: Played 3 incomplete 3.5e campaigns (Barbarian, Melee Ranger and Warblade) and 2 incomplete 5e (Vengeance Paladin and Tempest Cleric). Maybe I played like 40 sessions overall.
- Situation:
Last year, I started playing Curse of Strahd with my friend and I rolled as Tempest Cleric.
However, we ended up "pausing" the campaign like we always do... due to lack of time, work/life problems.
Our DM is thinking about resuming the campaign soon, but Im not happy with my level 5 Cleric. Even though I have a damage-oriented build, the party sees me as a healbot.
So I wanna change my Character, make a new one.. New Class and everything.
*EDIT: The DM decided not to continue the Curse of Stradh campaign. Instead, he will choose a new campaign. So the players are gonna create brand new players lvl1.
I need some help making this new Character. For starters, picking my new Class/Subclass.
I'll list my preferences so you guys can make your suggestions based on them:
Which Class/Subclass do you suggest me to roll?

I'll list my preferences so you guys can make your suggestions based on them:
- Classes I dislike: Ranger (dont like the theme), Druid (dont like the theme), Cleric (no healbots for now on haha), Bard (seems overwhelming and Im kinda shy for a bard playstyle).
- I like Damage Dealer Classes, not "support-oriented" (healers or buffers).
- Im not the most active RP player, but not the worst either. Middle of the pack, I guess.
- Maybe a Class that I wont be overwhelmed as an intermediate player.
- Trying to choose a Class that is balanced like: combat (50%), social (25%) and exploration (25%).
- Cool tricks/moves are also appreciated. Trying not to pick a dull/boring Class. Little bit of flavor on it!
