Warpiglet-7
Lord of the depths
Well I have mostly played what I think are gishes in 5e.
That is I have generally played blade boon warlocks occasionally with a dip for more magic or better armor.
I do not have any desire to be the star. Rather I like being involved in the action. I have found most complaints about boredom in D&D for example are from blasters who stay back. For example, eldritch blast with hex, repeat.
I like fighting up close, dropping impactful spells when least expected and blasting when stuck where I can greatsword them.
It’s all about options. Misty stepping past bad guys right to the evil priest on the dais is fun.
But it’s also “Elric cool” too.
It’s cool imagery and more varied play. Next up for me is the Paladin. Using smites and smite spells has its appeal..
