[QUOTE="Shiroiken, post: 7150221, member: 6775477"] One of the best aspects of 5E is that Backgrounds allow for a variety of skills and tools, regardless of class. Several classes do have certain advantages for specialized things, such as Ranger with wilderness travel. I'd have to say if I had to pick a single winner, it would be Bard. Bard gets 3 skills instead of 2, which are open to anything. They get to add half proficiency to what they're not trained in. They get expertise at levels 3&10, so four skills can be tremendous. They already focus on charisma, so social encounters are their forte naturally. Finally, they have a lot of versitile spells (especially with Lore Bards picking up other class spells) that can be used to get around a lot of challenges. Rouge gets an honorable mention, because Reliable talent at 11th level makes them amazing at whatever they're trained in. A lack of magic keeps them out of first place though. [/QUOTE]
