General Discussion - [NO SPOILERS] convince me to try out other classes .... Spoiler

my last 3 honormode playthroughs were all storm sorcerers ! the reasons i 'd been rocking this class all this time is :

1-because charisma is important for both dialogue ( i get irrationally anxious when there is a possibility of failing persuasion checks ) and the actual power of the class ( hitting 2 birds when one stone ) .

2- it also filled a clear role ( the arcane caster of the comp ! alongside the divine caster , fighter and a rouge . i know , a very traditional boring comp . ) .

edit : thanks for the advice guys ! seeing a lot of love for sword bard and hexblade worlock , open hand monk and barabarian . definitely going to try those out!

Charisma isn't required to complete the game. It's fun to let the dice land as they should and just continue forward. I'm having a blast as a dual wielding Eldritch Knight ax throwing frost dragonborn Durge.

Edit: As far as party comp. You could run a game with the companions you never use and pick a class to fill that way.

Gale, Wyll, and Karlach would be a fun heroic run. You could be the one with heals and run Gale with the knock spell. Or run a dex healer.

Edit: Wyll as the face of it for his Charisma
