Class summary

[Ferris]

Is there a quick video or read that sums up all the classes. I cant be bothered to watch a 40 min video to hear that the rogue can backstab or someshit.

Just look trough the PHB, read the initial descriptions of the classes and maybe a bit further if you want a better idea.

[Ghost]

Barbarian - angry warrior, think The Hulk

Bard - spellcasting musician / jack-of-all-trades / skill monkey

Cleric - a spellcasting priest

Druid - a shape-shifting nature priest

Fighter - a professional warrior

Monk - martial artist / ninja / avatar

Paladin - a holy warrior, bound to an oath

Rogue - a thief / assassin, can backstab or someshit.

Sorcerer - a specialised / focused spellcaster, that gets magic 'naturally'

Warlock - typically spellcaster, gets power from contract with a powerful being

Wizard - the spellcaster, nerd

[Finwickle]

Ranger - A warrior of the wilderness who combats threats on the edges of civilization, clearly beyond the memory of Ghost :-p

[Kyutaru]

Barbarian - Hulk Smash
Bard - Has all the skills and buffs, pure support
Cleric - Main Healer, also buffs and nukes

great summary. The Wizard is def the Nerd of Spellcasters. I'm torn between Sorc and Wizard. Am I right in stating that the Wizard is able to use much more magic but not as potent, specialized and hard hitting as a Sorc ? These two classes are the hardest for me to separate in my head.
