Tank help- Looking for ideas for a overexcited linebacker
To preface I do not know much about football but linebackers are the guys that get in and tackle the heck out of people right?
I’m joining an ongoing game with a few friends and I want to play the tank (they need one too) but I don’t have much tank experience past a few lvls of barbarian.
We start at level 9, I like multi classing but am not bothered by a single class
I know there’s a wizard and a cleric and a gunslinger (I think? I forget exact class but they shoot)
So I want a tank that doesn’t need or even have two brain cells to rub together and can maybe get in and tackle the shit out of bad guys before they realize he’s even doing it.
I know there’s some good fighter classes with crowd control but I’ve never built a fighter.
I’m good with almost any race, I could even do a human but I’m not crazy for them. DM hasn’t banned anything and I want to make a fun build and not build something that would make the game frustrating for him or the rest of the party.
