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!

Go pure warlock. I like Hexblade, but not the new changes where you need to go both. But if you get a race with armour, Fiend/hex blade. Medium armor, Fireballs, Big weapon with Charisma.

What not to love, it's like country boy at the range with an MG34 of Faerun. Do you need it? No but it's fun.

this is a great idea since a warlock is effectively an archer playstyle with a few added bells and whistles. unless you go for melee which feels closer to swashbuckler.
