These are just making new specialisms of 'Divine Caster'. In my high-magic, high-tech, gods-at-war setting, I have added two new divine classes, a Favoured (Soul) and an Invoker (or 'Siphon', TBC).
#How to homebrew a class 5e full
The 5E full rules split arcane into two, divine in two, and warrior into three (fighter, barbarian and monk) before adding magic. The 5E basic rules divide spellcaster into Arcane and Divine. Are you aware of the 3.5 'Basic' variant where there were 3 classes? (Warrior, Expert, and Spell caster?). This depends on how specialist you want classes to be. (Please note I discuss these aspects of balance checking generally, using hypothetical examples and those from my own homebrew, before discussing the Alchemist specifically each time.) "Does my class step on another class's (story) toes?" The more detailed and difficult questions you need to think about for the latter are as follows: I've found most players and DMs are as concerned with 'why' than the nuances of power balance.
If the answer is as simple as "because it's fun to try and make stuff", fair enough, by all means homebrew it, and if you're with a bunch of mates rolling around casually, then often no-one's going to mind. It's a good thing to ask whether your creation balanced, as in whether it is more or less powerful than existing options.īut there's also the question of balance as in 'is a good addition?', 'is it out of place?' 'is it useful?', 'could it even have been published in 5e in the first place?' and wider questions. 'Balance' covers more than just 'balance', if you see what I mean
