    Hey! Guess what. You're Awesome and thanks for watching. I promise this is the best DND tutorial based on a 30 year old Jeff Foxworthy joke you'll ever see. Stick around for more and vote in the comments for which subclass you'd like to next.
    Basically old arny if he somehow fused with merlin but was just as dumb? Is that a good comparison... I don't know these things are hard to fill. Barbarians cool. Big Sword Fun. I got monkey brain.

    I actually had a couple of players who individually decided to play a wild magic barbarian and sorcerer respectively they also both decided to play half-elves with a sea elf bloodline so when they popped up at the table they were a little surprised by that. It also turned out that the sorcerer came from a family with a rich and powerful bloodline who basically only cared about magical supremacy as it were. The Barbarian on the other hand was abandoned by his parents and left on the doorstep of an orphanage. So I ended up deciding as the DM that the two were actually brother and sister. It was a huge epic twist that I will forever remember.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but Rage is a 1 minute ability. Normally it ends early if you don't attack or aren't attacked. Persistent Rage only means it lasts the full minute no matter what, with the exception of falling unconscious. It's not an, "I get to be super angry all day" unlock. At most it's 5-6 minutes of being extremely angry until level 20 and you can theoretically rage 1,440 times for an extremely angry, albeit exhausting, day.

    I like the imagine each of the effects of the Wild Surge is you being a Midgardian tapping into the energies of the Norse Nine Realms. Like the weapon throw being from Svartalfheim, the pixie and flumph are summoned from Alfheim, the vines at your feet come from Vanaheim, the reactive damage is from Muspelheim(?), the dark blast comes from Helheim, the bamf is from Niflheim, the extra armor is perhaps Jotunheim, and the beam of light comes from Asgard.

    So, I've been playing BG3 since Early Access, and I only just learned last night that you can pick up enemies and use them as improvised and thrown weapons. And the Berserker Barbarian gets a buff to this ability. It's been hilarious, and my pockets are stuffed with four each Imps and Intellect Devourers for when I don't have any enemies close enough.

    If you're interested in playing Wild Magic Barb, I'd suggest looking online into some homebrew that modifies the wild magic table and some path features. In particular something that makes the wild magic damage scale as you level up (unlike the base wild magic table which i believe is constant). I've seen one that modifies the basic table and I've seen some that makes the wild magic a d20 roll with instant and/or persistent encounter-long effects. Find what looks good for you and have fun!

      Champion has by far got to be one of the most boring fighter subclasses I’ve ever seen. Strong or not, everything flavor wise about them is purely mechanical, lacking any defining characteristics outside of things that could just be the flair of another fighter subclass, which gives it a lack of pazaaz.

    I once maid a multi class wild magic barbarian/wild magic sorcerer for a high level one -shot my group played. Came up with a system with my DM that he had a chance of any spell failing depending on several factors on top of wild magic surge issues, and a “failed” spell would send him into a rage. Wasn’t as chaotic as I hoped it would be, there were surprisingly few opportunities for spell casting until the final boss fight so nothing triggered, but I did accidentally turn one of my party members into a sheep after the battle was over and I had a wild magic surge happen on a sending or message spell as we were wrapping up. lol. I still think the character could be a lot of fun in a more long-term setting, but haven’t had the opportunity to break it out yet.

    My only Character with this subclass was a Rune Knight / Wild Magic Barbarian.
    Gotta say PRETTY STRONG. Rune Knight was good at balancing the Wild surges and i loved having to improvise and adapt.
    My character was like a Magical Battery that was used as an experiment for an Interdimensional Being (long story), he had so much magic funneled through his soul that got infused with magic and could "store" it. Narratively it made sense, he controlled the remnants of his power through Runes (Rune Knight), while the explosive power of Rage served as release.
