Holy shit, I swear this is everyone who has ever wanted to build a casting class.

Yes, thank you for making a thread about the parody power metal you found.
>>47317873
No problem babe, I try to keep up with the times.

>Playing a caster because you want ultimate power
>Not playing a caster because you want to be the naive inexperienced student character who secretly (or not so secretly) needs the rest of the party to keep from getting killed in terrible terrible ways by the first thing with actual experience and intent to kill.

See, this is how I always understand casters. Most people want to have ultimate power, and if I want to make a character like that I generally build some giant axe wielding homo who hits things really hard. Casters are always the most fun when they have reasonable limitations and clear drawbacks.

I played a faggot caster like that andenjoyed myself. Sorry not sorry.

>Catalog
When I want ultimate power I usually play a Cleric and make it like... the ultimate US Conservative Bible-Thumper's wet dream by being able to call on the power of MY GOD to fix all my problems and smite the unbelievers. Plus wearing armor and still being able to use spells is pretty sweet.
That or I just play a bard, and then it doesn't matter how strong I actually am because I'm getting laid all the time.

Oh you spoony bard, good choice. In real life I would love to be a bard, but I'd probably end upsome sort of giant doofus.
>>47317858
I'm ashamed to admit that I thought that was pretty cool.

>people who play casters enjoy reveling in their magics
Do they?
Most people I've seen playing wizards go for the "nurd" archetype and are usually playing scholars/scientists who's view on magic is more or less scholastic.

>Spoony bard.
Fuck no. I'll stay as far away from anything Spoony-related as possible, thanks.
Anyway, playing a Bard is easy. Just dump everything into Charisma (you don't need combat stats anyway, most of your time will be spent buffing allies), then take credit for everything everyone else in the party does. Regale crowds with tales of their epic adventures, but cast yourself as the hero who did everything. As long as you actually LOOK the part and everyone else in the party dumped Charisma, you should be able to get everyone to believe your version of events.Until they challenge you to prove it, at that point you just gotta blow them off as "not worth the effort" and hope they don't actually attack you...

Th-this is a show for kids, right?

A little unrelated, but I always imagine the perfect bard to be that guy from the first book in the Horus Hersey set of 40k. He shows up to capture some giant boring ass rambling speech, get's bored, goes for an adventure through a dangerous space world, before getting drunk then getting the shit kicked out of him for running his mouth. Such is the life of a bard.
>>47318384
Not really. That episode was literally about going to the DMV and I'm sure kids don't know anything about that hell hole.
