Hello im the kind of player who likes to fill the role that group is missing/needing. But the group i've recently joined have 5 members already and for the first time ever there is no specific role for me to "fill". I have really nice stats but I have no Idea what to play, all I know is I want to fight using melee and im looking for suggestions/ideas and even some recommendations. TY for your time any help is greatly appreciated
So a 6 member party with all the traditional roles already filled? Arcane duelist bard. Definately a bard. With a 6 person party you get alot of bang for the buck on the bard's inspire courage, and they are pretty good at melee if not experts.
that's an interesting idea. My only question is what kind of weapon I would use? And how would he fight would he spend his time in combat performing or in melee range attacking? also what feats would I take should I go TWF or or stick to using just a longsword? also my character will be lvl 6 starting off.
I have not seen many bards actually played (though they get talked about alot). I have never seen one actually do well as TWF (the best was ok well we didn't really have to save him all that often).
Other than that I would first suggest you go look at the bard guide.
yea I just did and I think Ive settled on a half-orc bard (for falchion proficiency) that will do Dragon disciple. And I will be using that arch type you recommended Kolokotroni so thank you for the sugestion =)
Personally, I'm starting to really enjoy the Freebooter Ranger for a fun martial that really adds some "team" feeling to a group.
