[QUOTE="Clint_L, post: 9408640, member: 7035894"] Interesting. I tend to think of complexity in terms of "how hard is it for a total beginner to learn?" because that's my context for D&D Club. In my experience, [U]at low levels[/U] it would be: Artificer: High Barbarian: Low ("I would like to Rage.") Bard: High Cleric: Average Druid: High Fighter: Low Monk: Average Ranger: Average Rogue: Average Sorcerer: Very High Warlock: High Wizard: Average Sub-class choice will obviously have an effect whenever those come online. A champion remains low difficulty, but a battle master is high. What typically makes a class harder for beginners is having to learn multiple systems. So even though I tend to think of, say, a warlock as a simple class, evocations are actually very hard for a new player to choose and understand because they have no context. They don't even know that Eldritch Blast will be their bread and butter spell unless I tell them. And sorcery points are the bane of my existence with most new players who pick sorcerer [/QUOTE]
