Then Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything added the first addition to the class DnD class list. The Player’s Handbook lists the first 12 official 5e Dungeons and Dragons classes. It becomes even more daunting when you realize there are 116 sub-classes beyond that! There are 13 official DnD character classes for you to play in DnD 5e. How well do you know yourself, fellow gamer? You’re about to find out! Rogues also feel rich for this - so many themes that are awesome that feel like fitting them into a subclass does them down (Phantom is top of the list, but soulknife, inquisitive, Mastermind and swashbuckler also fit, though I also feel swashbuckler can be reasonably well served by a multiclass).Have you ever wondered, “What D&D character am I, really?” Not what class should you play, but what vibes are you giving off to your fellow D&D nerds and party members? This Dungeons and Dragons quiz will tell you. Circle of dreams druid appeals to me as a subclass that has some fluff/expectations not delivered on and where the base class adds features that don't feel like they fit to me. Some cleric domains seem like they could replace some elements neatly (does death domain need healing and bless or life domain need inflict wounds?) though this is probably more a homebrew fix. Shadowmonk seems like it could have more core abilities. In a similar vein I was tempted by spirits bard for a witch doctor class, and might still try that outside the competition. Maybe if the class comes with some new necromancy spells and is balanced round those then it can be more robust? The former is poorly balanced now, the latter gets a bit screwy if in future spells are released that bring the power level up to normal. Most necromancy spells are just bad - either you balance round typical spells of a given level or you balance round the existing power level of spells. My take is that it has to be one of the hardest options to futureproof and balance. I would be really keen to see what you could do with that. Necromancer definitely strikes me as a good choice.I do agree the necromancer has a lot of potential. I already know a couple places where I could improve it, but I figured it'd be good to get a few more eyes and opinions on it. The basic idea is to be an Intelligence-based martial class with a focus on support. Eldritch Knight has the heft mechanically but itÂ’s not a broad archetype in fiction. This is the second iteration I've made of this class, but the first I've posted on this subreddit.

In terms of other ideas that are appealing, Divine Soul seems to carry some possibility for a whole class. IÂ’m most of the way finished with a Mastermind base class at this point.
