D&D 5E (2014) Help playtest my fantasy stat draft!

[Mannahnin]

We're going to end up with a party consisting of various half-baked Barbarian builds and whatever kind of Bard @Snarf Zagyg is bringing.

Maybe he'll be a Bardbarian. A Fafhrd-type, perhaps.

 

[el-remmen]

Maybe he'll be a Bardbarian. A Fafhrd-type, perhaps.

I think that is called "a skald" or in Snarf's hands, "a scold"

I'm going to try something unconventional (if this whole draft isn't unconventional enough). Taking a page from my son's strategy, I'll take
Tough, +2 Con, -1 to 3 different stats

Since he discovered the Tough feat, he never has a character without it.

Got it!

@Blue sent me their pick ahead of time, of 16 Str. That puts @el-remmen on the clock for picks 7 and 8.

 

[Swarmkeeper]

Snake picks!

 

[el-remmen]

I'll take INT 15 for my first pick and Wild 14 for my second.

 

[TwoSix]

Snake picks!

[Fenris-77]

Thank god, someone's building a Wizard.

 

[TwoSix]

I'll take INT 15 for my first pick and Wild 14 for my second.

Even with a fantasy draft, no one is taking the Wisdom to play a Cleric.

@Blue is on the clock with pick #9.

Even with a fantasy draft, no one is taking the Wisdom to play a Cleric.

I almost always play clerics, so this is a departure for me.
