I do so love my magic tanks. I played sorcerers and wizards for like a decade before finally deciding to try a paladin, and oh good Lord was it fun being able to actually just slap a mferI think Wizard is my favorite class, because I like having options. My favorite character was a Paladin though. It's fun still having some spells but not having to worry about it much. You're mostly just hitting people.

My favorite character I've played was a Paladin, but I went in not wanting to RP the typical always good Paladin. He was a bit of a narcissist, but he helped people to maintain his image and status. It was an interesting spin on the lawful good architype. He did good, it just happened to be for selfish reasons usually.

The full saying is "Jack of all trades but master of none is oftentimes better than a master of one" In DnD it's certainly true, it's called versatility and the funny thing about paladins is they're *still* a master of burst damage that also comes with being a master of burst healing.It's silly, but it bothers me when people claim recent revisions to sayings are actually the "complete" forms of sayings. Here's a great write up of the history of the phrase "Jack of all trades": https://english.stackexchange.com/a/508907 The end of the comment has a summary of the revisions over time, and the "ofttimes better than master of one" first appeared in 2007.

Yeah, Moon Druid is honestly a top-tier tank, especially once you hit a high enough level to cast while wildshaped.

Not only is it wrong, it ignores the entire narrative that led up to the original saying. Retailers asked their front-line staff to tolerate customers's unreasonable behavior to increase sales. That's it. The revision shifts the blame to the customers, who should be civil regardless, but would be more likely to be so if acting otherwise didn't have few consequences and the possibility of greater material gain. /rant

Lol. I guess he was somewhat similar. He didn't kill people though. He was the only survivor of what should have been a TPK. One member of the party did something stupid and summoned a hoard of enemies to us. We were totally surrounded with no hope of winning the fight, so he summons a steed and fled. He tried to grab people but failed, so he ended up as the only survivor. I felt bad for that.

It doesn't really make sense. Treating them as hard rules just ends up with worse role play. No one in the real world is *always* good, or lawful, or whatever. Also, "evil" people often think they're doing good. It's more of just guidelines in my opinion than actual rules.

After strength, charisma, and constitution do you think they have the intelligence for that?
