Best Class for Master of Storms?


Advice


Hello all, I'm looking to make a backup character that is a master of storms. Tornado, Lightning Storms, Fog, Hurricanes, etc...

Now. Druid is an obvious class for this, or at least, one of the obvious classes. The question is, do I go Storm Archetype for the Druid? Or Vanilla Druid? Which domains are best for this (and most useful)?

Another option could be a Air Kineticist, focusing on lightning. They get fly, can bolt people all day, some wind powers too.

Can Shaman do this well? Better than the others? They don't seem as fun to play to me for some reason though...

The Exchange

Druid has a lot of the stuff you want but it's got a lot of fingers in other pies. There's Wind Oracle, of course. Lot of storm options there. The Aerokineticist has lots of the low-end stuff but never gets into heavy duty weather control, etc.

Thundercaller Bard
You get to stun your enemies with the power of thunder at level 3, Call Lightning at 8, at 10 you can learn the The Winds of the Five Heavens masterpiece to control winds, and you still get Inspire Courage and all the other juicy bits of being a Bard.
Buy yourself a tuned bowstring and you have functionally infinite lightning.


Wizard gets a number of good spells in the regard and can use several lightning and blast spells and a variety of fogs.

A Druid with the archetype Storm Druid will be amazing for what you are trying to do, Dwarf or Humans are the best races.

At first you can grab the Storms Domain and at 9th Cloud Domain.

For traits you cant go wrong with Magical Lineage (Call Lightning) and Reactionary.

BTW playing a this kind of Druid is pure fun and you can also have a lot of options to do on the battlefield besides throwing thunders.
