Healer Mashup Classes Mashup classes with multiple themes, one of which is the healer archetype. Summon increasingly powerful snakes to aid you in battle. Use soothing music to make snakes bend at your will. Healing class that specializes in healing teammates instead of fighting during combat The Arrowsmith uses custom arrows to create chaotic and useful effects on the battlefield from afar.īattled hardened frontline fighter who also specialize in healing.īrave people who put their lives on the line to save the lives of others.Ī magical user devoted to spells of healing. Healer Classes Classes based on the healer archetype.Ī magical healer doted with the ability to mend wounds with a simple touch Healer classes tend to focus on healing and supporting others and have themes not relating to religion and/or being a cleric. 3 Healer Classes Based on Existing Fiction.I've been going back and forth, and could use some help from people who've had experience with the campaign. On the other hand, no counterspelling/magic resistance, no will saves, and no darkvision.ī) How important are will saves for madness?Ĭ) Would an abjurer be important to have (counterspell buff / magic resistance for the huge end fight)Ĭ) Melee vs Ranged and such - which might be more important? He would dual wield (thus the fighter level, to optimize that), and could use the sun sword to the best effect. I'm the DM so I say he can be a bladesinger. Option 3: Human fighter 1/bladesinger wizard. A little more tanks than the elf wizard, but no darkvision. Cleric 1 is a solid dip for armor and either martial weapons (for the sword use) or a lot more skills (knowledge cleric), that won't hurt spell slots. Option 2: Human cleric 1/abjurer wizard. None of the other characters would be able to use it, so this would give some use for it (greenflame blade + the sword) High elf has dark vision, and I'm aware of the sun sword later in the adventure. Would be a great spellcaster, and it gets wisdom saves (though it won't be great at them). I figure since the party is so small, its actually important that I get a character somewhat optimized for the adventure I've got three things I'd be interested in, but I don't know which would be good. * Aasimar Land Druid (will be more of a spellslinger with maybe a scout form, can heal if necessary, starts with very strong will saves (for the madness aspect), has darkvsion) * Dwarf Life Cleric (will wear heavy armor, heal (obviously), and starts with very strong will saves (for the madness aspect), has dark vision) If necessary I don't mind creating another 'npc' player.Ģ) I need some help with what would be good for my character. ġ) Three characters is small, but is it realistic (especially given all of the npcs)? Does anyone have practical experience with how difficult things are? I don't have a ton of time to finagle things beyond whats presented in the book (as loose as it is). I've read through the starting bits of the adventure, but a few questions. I'll be running Out of the Abyss for a very small group.
