[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 8352654, member: 7030563"] IMO bladesingers are the most powerful class/subclass in the game and in my experience bladesingers go down less than any other class (despite their low hps). They can cast GFB and attack every single turn without being hasted and without using any sorcery points. I don't think sorcerers or for that matter any class other than a full martial is comparable in melee. Divine souls do have cleric spells but healing is generally available and purchasable. In a 5-wizard party a couple wizards with magic initiate and healing word are all the healing you are probably going to need. In terms of pure combat power I think the best 5-person party of 1-class would be 3 bladesingers (1 optimized for melee damage, 1 tank, 1 eldritch blaster with a hand crossbow), an enchanter and another wizard (diviner would be my pick). With the right backgrounds, stats and utility spells you could be good at the other two pillars as well. I think a party of Rogues would be less powerful in combat when they had to fight, but better out of combat and able to avoid most fights. A party of 5 Rogues can move at 120 feet per turn as a party (more with magic). They can simply outrun a lot of foes if they can't sneak around or talk (with expertise) their way through. This party would have expertise in every skill and with a Phantom they would have proficiency in any tool on demand. As others have mentioned though, in 5E you can debate what would be "best" but you could do it pretty well with any class. [/QUOTE]
