Fighter does give more flexibility with stat placement since you can choose one of strength and dexterity to put lower than 13 and not have it affect your defensive or offensive capabilities as much. Since your breath weapon depends on constitution, either works well, since both will want a higher constitution. Champion doesn't provide a lot of gameplay variation since many of it's features are passive. Berserker has to be more tactical with the frenzy uses or could literally exhaust itself to death. If you are stuck with Champion or Berserker, both can work but have problems. Bear totem would just know that they outlast any opponent by sheer tenacity and stamina while the battlemaster would know that no one could beat them tactically. "Never be afraid to be the first to resort to violence anyone claiming violence never solved anything has obviously never tried it."Įither could work well and I think that either Bear Totem Barbarian or Battlemaster probably fits the character best. The number one roleplaying tip I can offer a newbie red dragonborn barbarian is: take the sailor background with the pirate variant, and take this mantra to heart.I suggest you wait and ask in the future. In any case, when you're a level away from your first feat, you'll be able to ask us for feat advice again with some experience under your belt, which will help guide the convo about which feat you take. You won't be able to take a feat until level 4 at the earliest and probably won't want to, as you'll prefer to increase a stat by 2 points.Definitely Barbarian if you want strong mechanical incentives to keep things as melee as possible.

Is your DM allowing Unearthed Arcana content? There's a new one just out with a lot of draconic stuff in it, especially long-awaited fixes to address widespread opinion that dragonborn are the most underpowered PC race.So for this type of character would barbarian or fighter be fighter and any roleplaying tips are appreciated? I have no idea what feats would be best either so help on that would be great as well, thanks to whoever answers. I'd like for him to specialize in melee combat as well so no crossbow shenanigans. Thinks wizardry and magical enhancer are for wimps and I'd be an insult to his pride to rely on such things (So no hexblade for me if I choose to indulge in fighter) Really enjoys fighting and is quite battle-hungryģ. Incredibly proud of himself as a warrior and would like to challenge the most powerful martial foes possible and overcome them.Ģ. My idea for the character was a Dragonborn who isġ. One of red dragon ancestry (they got me into the hobby after all) and im wondering what more experienced players reccomend for a Dragonborn between fighter and barbarian. HOWEVER, I plan to make the best of my situation! However, I am a jobless 16 year old so Im stuck with the basics. I would love to try out other monstrous races like Minotaurs and the badass lion people, Loxodons, Bug Bear etc. Anyway, slowly I started getting into the actual player side of dnd and its sounds quite fun and I'd like to get into my first actual campaign. It was a video detailing the lore and ecology of red dragons that just captivated me, after that, I dipped my toes into dnd lore focusing on the monsters from elementals to owlbears I just gobbled up any videos detailing these fabulous creatures. I'm a brand spanking new player that found out about dnd from a pretty simple video that just managed to pop up in my recommended.
