>>98124923>other classesAll you need is:>Fighter (Barbarian, Paladin and Ranger are variant Fighters)>Mage (Sorcerer and Artificer are variant Mages)>Thief (Bard is a variant Thief)>Cleric (Druid and Warlock are variant Clerics)
That's already too many.
>>98124923Beguiler, Dread Necromancer, Crusader, Swordsage, Binder, Wildshape Variant Ranger, Duskblade, Factotum, Warblade, Psychic Warrior, Warmage, Scout, Hexblade, Adept, Spellthief, Marshal, Truenamer.
WotC sucks endless cocks in hell for cutting Warlord from 5e.
>>98124932>>98124933More classes = more goooder.
>>98124923Fighter shouldn't be a class. It should be split into a SpellSword based on Eldritch Knight and a Duelist based on Battle Master.
>>98124935Are those full classes or prestige classes
Alchemist, Thanathurgist, Shaolin Monk, Atomist, Gunslingertruly the list actually goes on
>>98124941Full classes. I wouldn't be able to fit all the prestige classes that should be allowed in one post.
>>98124945>thanathurgistsomething to do with death?
>>98124940True honestly. It doesn't make much sense Fighters don't have ANY magic. Maybe they should all be replaced Swordmages.
>>98124956Eldritch Knight is a better name cause they won't all be using swords.
>>98124923>D&DThey should go the route of FATAL where you have a high chance of dying during character-creation so that you don't have to play such a shit game.
>>98125068There are other games with classes
>>98124947Truenamer is half of a class at best.

>>98125382why did you list "fighter" 9 times?
>>98124923Elf and Dwarf
>>98125382>no gagman>no jongleur>no pantaloon
>>98125435It's actually extremely based and cool to have elf be a class but the modern day crowd is too WOKE and DESIGNPILLED to accept it.
>>98125435and halfling!
Monk. God I wish vanillaware made me a cute monk anime gf.
>>98124923It's not about what classes D&D "should" have, but about how the classes work.>unarmed combatInstead of a Monk class, it would make sense for every race to have its own ancient martial arts that incorporate their natural advantages, and characters start with "white belt" level basics.Every unarmed move should reduce target HP, whether it's a push, an attempted grapple, etc, since HP is an abstraction of endurance, fighting stamina, and luck.More investment would obviously grant better moves.>weapons combatInstead of a Fighter class, it would make sense for each background to have a list of weapons to choose from, reflecting both the racial history of weapon advancement, and the training of the character himself. Some weapons like clubs and spears might be common to all races, with some weapons being more unique; savage orcs might have jagged curved cleavers while dwarves might have heavy long-maces.Weapons would definitely be better than unarmed strikes in terms of damage output, and an innate ability to parry depending on the weapon, but unarmed's utility would outclass weapons. Plus, weapons could synergize with martial arts, using disarming grapples, follow-up kicks or shoulder charges (spiked or enchanted armor can help this too).Then, since D&D is so magic-heavy, various forms of gameplay could be dedicated to the schools of magic. The "master spell list" would have to be discarded, and it would be better to have each school be from a different supernatural or unnatural source, so while it's all "magic", each form could have different ways to use, different costs, and different consequences.More importantly, things would need to be made so instead of having one correct answer, each power would be viable in its own right.Of course, the different forms of magic should be able to synergize with weapons and martial arts the character can use, too.And that's ignoring D&D's other vague, redundant, or contradictory mechanics that need fixing.
>>98125588Through the power of AI this dream can be achieved
>>98125588Monk is just an unarmed fighter
>>98125674This honestly isn't bad, although I think the physique would be even more exaggerated if it was real DC art.
>>98124937Nobody is stopping you from going and playing 3.5. Why are you listing 5e classes and then acting clueless?
