i think paladins are the ideal first
0:03
class for a newcomer to Dn D and I've
0:07
been advocating for paladins as the kind
0:09
of go-to starter class for a long time
0:11
for several reasons so the paladin is in
0:15
general a great all-around class it does
0:18
a lot of things it's got spell casting
0:20
it's extremely durable it has pretty
0:22
good damage output thanks to divine
0:24
smite and since it's charisma based you
0:26
have those charisma based skills that
0:28
make you useful and fun outside of
0:31
combat that you might not get from like
0:33
a fighter a barbarian something like
0:35
that at the same time you have enough of
0:39
all of those things to explore those
0:42
options and have them be exciting but
0:44
you're not so devoted to any one of
0:47
those things that that is all you learn
0:50
so playing a paladin is a great way to
0:53
very quickly expose yourself to the
0:56
entire rule set within a single
0:59
character by the time you're level three
1:02
you've learned how skills work you've
1:03
learned how fighting works you've
1:05
learned how spell casting works and
1:06
you're starting to accumulate class
1:08
features that are going to keep you
1:10
alive long term so all around nice and
1:13
survivable very diverse can fill a ton
1:16
of roles in the party and will teach you
1:18
to play the game very very quickly
