Champion Fighter has a reroll in their pocket every round. That's INSANE.

[MisterSmith]

Glad I wasn’t alone in IMMEDIATELY thinking about stacking “Push” with Battlemaster.

I’m a simple man…I want to send that guy flying across the entire room.

[maybevoldemort]

The combat stuff is great, but honestly having some extra RP things with second wind excites me more. It means it doesn’t always make sense for me to pass skill checks to other people, so long as I am moderately good at it.

As it is one of my favourite classes, I definitely am looking forward to playing it once the handbook comes out.

4:50 "A number of headaches..."
Meaning I was putting topple on my longbow and shooting fliers prone from 600' away.

[SortKaffe]

Level 9 feature is a genius redesign! I love how it adds exciting options when you hit with a Graze weapon (Greatsword).

[ConstructedChaos]

Here’s hoping we get an in depth look at weapon masteries and the specifics of each subclass! I can’t wait until September to get eyes on it all. 😅

[WyrmHunter]

Hidden extra attack: throwing two daggers with the nick property as a free attack without using a bonus action. Spread the pain!

[tantalus_complex]

Fighters are going to be _so good_ with the new Weapon Masteries. Can't wait for the redesigned Psi Warrior especially!

[Henrique-wiyl]

Hope they've done a good job with the Champion subclass

[jenzicam]

Simply adding the tactical mind is a huge boost for less combat focused campaigns. That’s really good😊

[LeonZellsin]

I wish Arcana Archer got fixed. Two shots per entire playthrough of a fighter is stupid. Either be tied to your Dex or Str modifier or even proficiency bonus I would settle for LOL

[dajhier]

Woahhh Champion fighter sounding kind of lit...

[WearingGoldluck]

Eldritch Knight is sounding much stronger now, no longer the niche pseudo-gish option but now potentially the gish-powerhouse, it’ll just depend on how good you can get cantrips to be.

[michaellaramee]

The very first PC I made in D&D was a human fighter champion with a halberd and that was in 2014. I want to remake that same character with the 2024 rules and see how they stack up!

[pardoe]

I like the way the abilities for Fighters with tactical mind and the barbarian ability to be more useful for skills outside of battle. Gives them more outside battle stuff instead of just standing behind the rogue and bard

[TheRulesLawyerRPG]

What about the new Indomitable feature, to reroll a save adding your Level? Did it stay?

[marcos]

Im sad they didn't go with making Battlemaster part of the core Fighter. For a "simpler fighter" (it's not even that complex) people can go to barbarian or rogue

[johnfree]

I wanted to know more about the Psi Warrior!!!

[danielcrystal]

Looks like fighters are getting some overdue love. Champion sounds especially good.

[maybevoldemort]

Level 9 feature is really good once you get to 11. if you have topple, you can knock them down, slow and then push with three attacks. With 15ft movement to get up that could Make it impossible for average speed creatures to reach you (presuming you step back a little bit)
