The biggest changes come to the classes of Dungeons & Dragons -.

As we get closer to OneD&D, the latest edition for the most popular tabletop role-playing game, we see Wizards of the Coast rolling out more changes to classes, mechanics and more as they try to refine the game with feedback from players.

The latest changes are not final yet, but they have been unleashed on the masses so players can provide feedback. However, they do offer some interesting changes. And so, without further ado, here are the biggest changes to classes and more in D &D’s latest playtest.

To kick things off alphabetically with the Barbarian, a new subclass has been added in the Path of the World Tree. It looks like someone at Wizards of the Coast played God of War: Ragnarök, as this subclass is all about the various planes, allowing you to travel on the roots of the World Tree to eventually visit them. Also, the Reckless Attack skill has now been modified to give advantage on attacks with Strength until your next turn, meaning this skill now works on Opportunity Attacks as well.

The next to get a big change is the Fighter. Another new subclass is being added here in the Brawler, finally giving people a viable option if they don’t necessarily just want to walk around with a huge sword. Instead, this subclass is all about grappling, improvised weapons and chaotic power in combat. Also, you can now use your Second Wind skill much more flexibly regardless of which subclass you go for. Instead of using it only to heal, you can also add 1d10 to any skill check you fail.

The changes coming to Sorcerers are not that big, but there are some additional skills. Innate Sorcery gives advantage on your Sorcerer spells and increases their difficulty by 1. Also, the Twinned Spell proposed changes have been discarded and the Wild Magic Surge table has gotten some extra goodies.

Warlock’s Pact Magic feature is back after much demand, and Magical Cunning now lets you reclaim half of your Pact Magic spells, so you rarely run out. Invocations are now available from Level 1 and Patron Spells are always prepared.

Finally, Wizards have lost their creation and modification spell functions, but to balance that, the Savant function has been added to numerous subclasses and you get more spell options when you get an extra slot.

Overall, there are also some big changes coming to magic as a whole. Now you don’t have such a wide range of spells from each class. While this made some a lot stronger, it caused others to lose their identity. For example, there was not that much difference between a Druid and Ranger.
