D&D 5E What Would You Play With These Stats?

These stats would allow you to create a quite decent MAD character, so this would be a nice opportunity to play such a character. Maybe a paladin as was mentioned before or an Eldritch Knight type character. Any character with a difficult to pull off character concept because of MAD really.
 


The answer is always the same when this thread pops up... it's more of a gloating post at this point. Anything works with grossly high stats like this. Anything.

"Look what one of my players randomly did LOL"...
 


One of my players rolled up a PC. I think she done well anyway. Rolled in front of me and I allow 1 roll.Tough luck if you roll bad.

my first thought was a half elf throw a 14 in cha (16) then up both 17s to 18's and run a wizard

str 13 dex 14 con 18 int 18 wis 14 cha 16

but you asked her not to do that...

so I would go monk, human

str 15 dex 18 con 15 int 15 wis 18 cha 14
 

Anything is possible with stats like that.

I'm not quite sure about the desire to put limitations on race/class choices based solely on the rolled stat values. To me that is punishing the player for rolling well. What's the point of rolling high stats if the DM is going to resent you for it,even if they were rolled fairly?

Its more fun when the PCs get their butts kicked having high stats. That way they have only their poor decisions to blame for their predicament.

I strongly agree. If you don't want lucky players having awesome stats, don't let them roll. Use point buy or standard array. That's what point buy and standard array were invented for.

Its to keep some things like spell DCs and sharpshooter/great weapon style in check so high abilioty scores are fine justdon't build a 20 dex sharpshooter+crossbow expert PC by level 4 or spell DCs of 14 or 15 at level 1.

I get to play with these rolled in front of the DM 4d6 drop the lowest.

I need to play some sort of front line healer like a war cleric or something so suggestions are welcome. Also want to try out something new and the death cleric is allowed. Doesn't jhave to be the most effect PC ever we just need a dedicated healer/tank. Thinking of a Mountain Dwarf war cleric although it seems a bit boring.

Str 18
Dex 14
Con 18
Int 12
Wis 16
Cha 11

once many years ago I watched a player on 3d6 roll 7 numbers drop the lowest place where you want... drop 3 18's, 2 in a row, followed by a 15 then the third.

He played a half orc Bard...it was awesome to behold
