How would you guys progress a Shield Master mountain dwarf Cavalier after level 5? I'm really struggling with mechanical optimization, although it's always a blast to roleplay a dwarf.
We haven't had any opportunities to acquire mounts yet, so the build feels a little lackluster.
I'm playing with a tabaxi sorceror, elf swashbuckler, dwarf zealot barb, and a human glamour bard. My role is pretty much drawing aggro while the zealot smashes stuff in the face.
My stats are 17, 14, 16, 10, 10, 8. A +1 STR feat would make sense, but none of them sound very exciting. Heavy Armor Master might help me tank, but -3 physical dmg isn't that consequential at Tier 2. Also, I could take Mounted Combatant and just hope for a mount down the road. We have sufficient gold for mounts, but haven't been to a town with stables yet.
What do you guys think?
