But how can 5E have Warlords without Fighter/Bard multi classing???
SHH! 5e isn't supposed to have Warlords!But how can 5E have Warlords without Fighter/Bard multi classing???
I let my players choose their subclass at 1st level, if they don't already get to. I let the player pick some kind of minor boon for their character that fits the flavor of the subclass (nothing more powerful than a Background feature, Language, or Tool proficiency), give it to them at 1st level, and call it good.A relatively minor complaint I have about 5th edition is having to wait until third level to get my subslcass. In a few of the D&D campaigns I've run, players have wanted to skip to level three because "that's when it gets fun." One of the reasons we wait until third level to get our subclass is to avoid encouraging players to multiclass by dipping their toes into various classes to get those abilities at level one.
Feats are still a choice, so that's a lie.While I kind of hate multiclassing, and it goes against the whole idea of a class-based system...
In 5e, martial classes easily have no choices to make after lv3 if they don't multiclass, so it's kind of necessary for them, just to feel like there is a decision point every level.
only multiclass that I like would be even split, but that is really awful in 5e, maybe if levels for Extra attack stack, martials could got away with it as in 3.5e with base attack bonus,I don't allow multiclassing in my campaigns...I find it to be more trouble than it's worth. The good news is that it's optional, as you said.
"Wait until 3rd level"? In fifth edition? So waiting a whopping 900 X.P. is now a problem?A relatively minor complaint I have about 5th edition is having to wait until third level to get my subslcass.
