Wilb:
Now you don't even need to spend a feat.

awaken_D_M_golem:
hmm ... more than a few exploits available.

Friends cantrip means you're Friends right?
 ;)

CR 1s and then they gain one of the 3 classes.
CR 1s are < the CR 2s that Moon Druid 2 has been dominating with, so this is OK.
Basically way more race choices, and potential combos.

Warrior is preferable to Fighter at any number of levels.
Second Wind 1 level early, and Danger Sense > Str Save prof.
Battle Readiness > Barb 7.

Expert doesn't have Rogue's Sneak attack, but
Helpful is frontloaded Mastermind 3.
Jack makes it > at skills.
5 could will get whining about > Rogues Sneak.
Evasion without sneak+, is only where it starts to fall behind.
Inspiring Help makes Lore 5s cry.
Capstone is quite tasty, make Wiz Div 2s cry.

Spellcaster again needs line iteming comparisons.
Personally I'll bet Warlock is weaker, but the others
aren't necessarily weaker at all.
The 6 10 and 14 if in regular classes, would get lots of whining.
( ... obligatory c.o. says damage is least valuable tactic, but still)
And probably easier play style for less experienced players.

I want.
I like.

Wilb:
I'd imagine this is silly with chain Warlocks.

It's a lesser Champion that trades Fighting Styles and Action Surge, and other related features from the worst Fighter choice, for circumstantial save boost and Advantage with Initiative. Meh.

I like how the spellcaster gets full 9th level slots as a Warlock through. Thats a thing right?

awaken_D_M_golem:
Oops, crossfired Action Surge with Second Wind. Yeah.
So ... Warrior is preferable to Fighter at 1 + 1/2 levels (wink).

Warlock is definitely the most changed of the casters.
But massive reduction of their Short Rest advantages.

Wilb - not sure how a Chainlock is supposed to happen,
but Volo's does have the Gazer box CL 3 thingy.

8wGremlin made this list of cr 1s :
        Modron/Tridrone/Quadron
        Vegepygmy
        Mephits
        Pixies!
        Quickling
        Phantom Warrior
        Brass/Copper Dragon Wyrmlings

Ranger Beast Master got lots of negative attention from giantitp.
As in pick another Ranger, and get a ++ BM Pet via the sidekick.
Goblin Revised Ranger Gloomstalker dip War Mage 2 with this alt BM.
