The artificer returns

[Spiritchaser]

An interesting point that I've seen in 5e is that, as long as you aren't taking the spotlight, you can basically do as much as you want.

Take a look at Clerics. They buff. They deal damage. They can hit things. They have a range of proficiencies. They're a full caster. They have their own smite effect that doesn't cost a resource. They do so much. The reason they're allowed to is because their spell lists are terrible at being selfish. Almost everything they do in terms of spells is about helping others succeed. Compare that to a Sorcerer, and you'll see the trend I'm talking about.

I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of it but years ago (and kind of now again) there was a MMO game called city of heroes.

It subscribed to the same philosophy.

A party of buffers, all buffing each other and debuffing the enemy could be absurdly powerful.
