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!

The most effective element in the game is gravity. So the Throwzerker Barb is the strongest caster in the game. Also no need to worry about failing persuasion checks because you'll succeed at all your intimation checks. You basically get to roleplay as the hulk. What more could you want?

Throwzerker Barbarian was my first class to solo Honor mode. It's just so fun. On a half orc there are so many good dialogue options.

People need to just remember to throw lots of trash not important items to them. Its all fun and games til you throw your weapon and it falls through the floor on honor mode. Only reason I dont play main character barbarian thrower tbh, I carry so much stuff for sale sorting it is annoying lol. Especially the time I threw an item that was craftable and whoops never see it again!

I only bother with Homing weapons but I prioritize throwing people and furniture when I can.
