What classes do you like to build for everyone?

I’m running my Tav as a Bard/Paladin/Wiz to mimic my favorite character I played from 5e a few years back.

Astarion is a Gloomstalker, Shadowheart is a Light Cleric, Gale is a Fighter 1/Wizard X, Wyll is a Draconic Fiend Sorlock, Laezel is a Red Draconic Sorcadin. I haven’t really used Minthara or Halsik much, but imagine they would stay single classed as Oathbreaker and Moon Druid.

    Ruin the theme, I guess? MCing Gale into starting fighter 1 to get Heavy armor just looks funny. Taking Shadow out of Cleric levels would also just be weird.

    Besides, I’m more use to games like Mass Effect or Borderlands, where the class is chosen for each character and you make the build work for them.

      That makes sense. I always make them thematically close to what they start as. So for Shadowheart she becomes a paladin of shar. Astarion is my gloomstalker. Gale is a sorcerer, and my Durge is always a durge.
