Hello Veeky Forums, I'm bored, uncreative, autistic, and a newfag, and can't find the general.
What's a decent build for me to try in a 5e campaign that I'm playing soon? Optimized, whatever, I'm not creative enough to look at my options and come up with something myself (other than a yuan-ti blood mage, which I'm not sure how to back up with crunch).
Thoughts?

in general, you should just have your DM make all your decisions for you, because who wants to open a book?
if he doesn't, he's an asshole
Joseph Watson
Myconid + Pupeteer
control everything

Do you have a diabolist GF pic?
Adrian Young
What sources are those from? I don't remember them from any of the books I've read
I sure as hell wish I did, but sadly no

stay in this thread if you want to play a video game
read the classes chapter and make a character if you want to play a tabletop game
I can't think of anything that would defeat the point of DnD more than having someone else entirely make a build for you (outside of one-shots with pregens).
Your concept comes first, then your build evolves naturally around your character and what he/she would want/need/be naturally inclined to learn
nothing screams That Guy louder than the dude that shows up to session 1 with his premade gnome alchemist planned out to get true flight at level 11

That sweet and sad at the same time.

that button that says Catalog takes you to a page which shows every thread. on the right hand side of that page is a box that says Search which lets you put in terms that will filter the results. also, consider lurking more. like, a lot more.

Thanks user, first time I made one of those
I just realized user wrote "diabolic", not "diabetic"
Daniel Sullivan
Not every post about a system needs to go in the general thread. Maybe user doesn't want to have to wade through namefags and thread drama to get some decent replies.
Nolan Baker
more likely to get serious responses in the general

"Diabolist" user, I worte "diabolist".

Carter Ross
they're only pointing it out because he said "I can't find the general" in the OP, omae. >worte you just keep hittin' the fuckin home runs, user!
Levi Morris
According to the creation dates of the two threads, OP made this thread more than an hour before that 5e general thread was made
Luis Jenkins
in that case I apologize. it never even occurred to me that there would not be a permanent 5e general thread at all times. I always just Hide them.
Ryder Price
>not creative enough to look at my options and come up with something myself Don't play. There's next to no chance your fellow players will enjoy your contributions (if any).
Cameron Gutierrez
ironic because you sound less fun to play with
Levi Peterson
Or you could filter them to prevent this kind of disruption from even happening, as well as spare yourself the trouble of having to announce to everyone what threads you hide.
Julian Walker
there was an existing one when he posted it, it's not that he couldn't find it, he didn't look
Joseph Wood
You sound like the type of guy who wouldn't take a full attack action every round as a fighter

Litterally type the following characters into the search bar in the top left. "5eg"

How about you just play a normal fucking goddamn character?
What the fuck is it with this millennial obsession with "builds"? I wouldn't mind so much if they meant stuff like "how to make dual-wielding axe and dagger guy" or "how to make a really good ice mage" but it's always shit like "how do I play a half-yuan-ti-pureblood warlock" or "how do I make a dwarf that worships the god of beer LOL." That's not a "build," that's you trying to make a joke out of a game that is already hard enough to take at all seriously. Retards who want to make "lolrandom" builds to break the game. Fucking stupid as hell, go play a video game, or a wargame, or a board game. Hell, go play Magic the Gathering where weird built decks are actually funny. But don't bring your myconid puppeteer sorcerer/wizard combo shit to a game where people are trying to play elves wielding battleaxes and immerse themselves in a fantasy story. Whereas you just bring in your stupid nonsensical shit and plop it down on the table like a big stinking shit and lean back arms crossed all like "what are you going to do about it?" Well, faggot, I am kicking you out of my fucking game group. Stop making bullshit characters. You are the reason why I have a system where you are only allowed to play core races and classes until you have been in at least a full 20+ session campaign with me. Then you can play a character with a non-core race OR a non-core class. That is it. And none of these dumbfuck builds. I am so sick of them. Bringing in shit out of the fucking monster manual because you are such a dead-inside worthless drone replicant of a human being that you not only can't come up with a creative character, you can't even bear for your precious special snowflake ego to be saddled with a normal character, so you just pick something out of an obscure splatbook or else pull some gay fucking homebrew from online and use it as a substitute for you being a decent roleplayer. Fucking kill yourself.
