@The Harbinger of Ferocity Death Cleric has a d8 hit die, martial weapons, medium armor with Dex and a necrotic damage smite that's later buffed by all of my necro damage not being reduced by necro damage resist. I might not be a great melee combatant but I can at least help some.

If nothing else, you'll be gothdorable. ^~^

EDIT: QUESTION FOR THE NEW PEOPLE. Do you think you'd be comfortable starting at 3rd level instead of 1st? I can say the steps, but it's not that different. We'd be going with the "default" HP per level (so if you use a d6, 4 + Constitution modifier HP per level)

@The Harbinger of Ferocity My PC is a melee build almost entirely. Spells are mostly for closing in, AoE options, and for when melee is not an option. However, I'm not much of a tank since just d8 HD and medium armor, same as Death Cleric.

We're definitely not in short supply of scrappers. Just no tanks. Which Ermine has already said she won't throw out any fat tankbusters in our way if we lack the role.

If we do start at third level as @Ermine was suggesting, I can work more easily with a Barbarian 1/Fighter 2 or Paladin 3 to add another melee fighter with added staying power to the front, @Ms Ravenwinter, @JBRam2002. Just so we have some means to split a bit of the damage rather than focus it all into one target.

@The Harbinger of Ferocity I played a Battle Master Fighter X / Berserker Barbarian 3 up to about lvl 10... she was nigh unkillable. It was amazing.

Things just for new people:
1) PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS. I have a burning desire to be useful.
2) Going to draw attention to my previous question: Would you be willing to do the extra (usually quick) steps to start at level 3, or would you prefer level 1? The fun class features start at levels 2 and 3 for the most part (or at least the ones I like), but it is a tiny bit of extra work, since that's learning how leveling up works before technically actually leveling up.

I'd like some help with figuring out how my Bard levels up from 1 to 3. (I still have to assign stat points, with which I'd also like some help because I'm not sure what would be the proper way of assigning them. I do know that CHA is important as a bard, but unsure what to boost next to that)

@Mesonyx The first thing I would suggest is to go to the Bard table in the Player's Handbook (p. 53). That gives you the name of each skill you get per level. You can then check through the next few pages and read more info on what the skills do. I put a lot of helpful info in the hiders below, and if you have any questions, please feel free to PM me :)



I wrote this in my phone, so I apologize for any typos. Tried to catch most of them.

EDIT:

I set up a test roll campaign, and I just wanted to see how simple it is to use the rolls here, vs trying to use rolls from a different site and copy them in. I know our wonderful DM has said that the dice roller won't be required unless abuse is suspected, but I like to backstop my rolls and be as transparent as possible as a player. So here was my test.

>Draj rushes forward to the Titan, swinging his longsword upwards and aiming for the gap between the enemy's chestplate and pauldrons. With his ally flanking, the enemy is slightly distracted. Now is his chance to shine! To Hit: 18 | 21 for 9 slashing damage!

Well, it's not the simplest method in the world, but the information is all there, and the roller is pretty user-friendly, as long as you know some basic BBCode to set up the URL correctly.

Dunno if I said that publicly, actually. I don't start taking notes unless it's related to in-game content. ^//^

So...we have a noble dragonborn warlock {@JBRam2002}, an outlander "human" druid (pretty much human) {@The Harbinger of Ferocity}, and the beginnings of a far traveler half-elf cleric {@Ms Ravenwinter}. Is that all right so far?

EEP! And a bard of some sort {@Mesonyx}!

Oops... sorry about that. My PC's information so far is correct at least though :)

@Ermine, you would be correct with that from my perspective.

@Ms Ravenwinter Don't worry about gp too much, I tend to share my wealth with the party fairly often :D

You would be considered wealthy by a druid's starting wealth standards. Starting gold of 2d4 x 10gp came out to a pitiful 30gp. Thankfully there's not much need for it.

I ended up using all of it quite easily. Rapier + Component Pouch + Medium Armor gets pricey. Holy Symbol wasn't, but it was also the only other thing I could afford before my coinpurse started pushing up cobwebs.

Warlock gets 4d4 x 10. As is fitting for a noble, I had a pretty decent roll with 110 starting gp... + 25 from background. Gonna start off with a healing potion. Awww yeah.

@Ms Ravenwinter You got a 4. You're only halfway to rolling like me.

I am curious how my rolls will be fated this time around. Previously they have been in my favor, but there are days past where it would been better not to roll at all.
