    Default Character creation help

    We're starting at level 3 with a choice of feat.
    I was thinking druid however I can't decide whether to go with circle of the moon or circle of wildfire. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Edit (adding more info)
    So far we have a warlock of the archfey and a barb. The world is post apocalypse but quite colourful so it kinda has an adventure time vibe. I'm looking to make a nomadic sort of character, so I feel that circle of moon fits better however, I always enjoy playing blaster characters which is why I'm leaning towards wildfire.

    More information will allow folks to give better advice.

    What do you want this character to be good at? What are the other party members? etc

    Both will be good.

    Moon is better at tanking, which your party is missing a bit.

    Wildfire is better for blasting, something else missing... well AoE anyway.

    I would go wildfire I think. Simply because there are a lot of control casters which somewhat lessens the need for a tank.

    Bards do AoE control, Warlocks generally deal damage, what you don't have is someone designed to actually take a hit.

    Would you rather bet on:
    • Controlling all of your enemies with spells?
    • Being attacked?


    I know what I'd put my bet on.

    You said you have a barb - other people have taken that as bard, but do you mean a barbarian?
    In-character problems require in-character solutions. Out-of-character problems require out-of-character solutions.
