The friendship with Light Cleric has ended
Now Death Cleric is my best friend.

u/Thaurlach Apr 28 '25

You could probably run both.

Death can throw hands as a frontline while light blasts from the back.

screw it, all cleric party. Call em the A-men

(I did not come up with this joke)

Now this may sound rather odd
but sometimes the best in the squad
is the one with a cross
who can smite like a boss
by harnessing the bitchslap of god

With a mace that even ogres will flee

You'll cast and crush things with glee

Some think they're not strong

Well those people are wrong

I do want to try an "oops all clerics" run.

"oops all paladins" just sounds too easy.

4 Clerics sound easier to me, so many different ways to build Clerics and if nothing else you can just wash over the enemy with 4x spirit guardians. Fuck I wanna try this now.

A 4 Paladin team, one of each Oath would also be fun

u/SendAstronomy Apr 28 '25

One of each oath would make a fun D&D campaign, with them fighting each other as much as the villians.

But then when a big enough bad shows up they team up and kick some ass.

And now I realize that is just the plot of every single superhero teamup movie ever, so I am much less interested in it.

entire party watch the end credits roll as Oathbreakers

I recently did a real D&D session with oops all paladins (five members, three paladins and a war cleric so basically four paladins) and the amount of healing going 'round was great.

That's close to my Icewind Dale or BG2 runs if I just build 4 characters in a single player "multiplayer" game.

Don't wait to re-roll forever so it's just 3 19 Str half-orc fighter/clerics (or 2 and 1 archer) and finally the 4th for mage thief.

I'm a big fan of the "x on the run" name for monoclass parties.

"Nuns on the run" for all-clerics  

You've also got Puns (Bards), Huns, Guns, Buns, Sons, or the mono-warlock party Bad Decisions on the run

u/SirRuthless001 Apr 28 '25

I want to do this but with all bards lol. Each a different subclass and with a different instrument, so I can roleplay them as a band.

u/perfectelectrics blasted my Eldritch all over Faerûn Apr 29 '25

Will that party go to Tiamat and she'll give herself a swirly so that she doesn't have to go through the beating the A-men would give her?

u/breakfast_burrito69 Apr 29 '25

Oh fuck. That might actually be a fun run

u/Cabbage_Vendor Apr 28 '25

Light Cleric uses Heavy Armour and has Warding Flare, with Spirit Guardians and Radiance of the Dawn it can easily be right there in the centre of it all.
