The Fighter, DnD’s iconic warrior, is a fantastic addition to any party. While their skill and tool proficiencies are extremely limited, Fighters excel in combat. They are durable, have great armor, and provide plenty of damage output. This makes them a valuable asset in any party, as they can protect their allies and deal significant damage to enemies.

In this Episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we discuss the strengths of the Fighter class and their ability to choose from a wide range of weapons and armor. This allows players to customize their character based on their preferred style of combat. Whether you prefer a sword and shield, a massive greatsword, or ranged weapons like a crossbow, the Fighter can accommodate your playstyle.
