D&D Build #17: The Arbiter of Knowledge (Lore Bard)
Ever not known what to character to bring to the table? Or, if you're like me, wait till everyone else has chosen a character to choose yours? With this character build, you won't need to, as you'll be able to adapt to fill any role and plug any holes the party has, whether in combat or outside it. This is a character than can be reasonably good at control, support, and damage dealing (at the same time), as well as filling at least two out of combat skill roles, all while being durable and evasive. This is a Lore Bard, Storm Sorcerer, and Knowledge Cleric multiclass build for D&D 5e. You can use different sorcerer or cleric dips depending on the role your character needs to have, and the flexibility offered by Bard's Magical Secrets allows you to pick the best spells your party needs.
