This post is more about what power level do you like in your games for martials and what do you do to make the feel the way taht feels good according to that.

In my case my biggest problem is how unidimensional they are, so advanced 5e has done the thing for me. I think that if we play at level 20 i would do some hombrew to push them even further but i like how many options they have.

I of the opinion that low level martials are cool but lacking in options and level 9+ martial characters are underpowered AF. That has to do tht as I subjectively understand dnd everything is made by magic, so the limit of physical feats should be as magic, like lifting tons or demolishing buildings with blows.

So, do you like martials in 5e or would you rather them to fulfill a different fantasy?

    In 3.5 fighters are OK in a fight. The imbalance was for the rest of the game thanks to wizards’ utility spells.

    Also CoDzilla since buffs stacked, which 5e’s concentration solved.

    5e is at a good spot, we usually play lower levels and it feels good,

      Lower levels is bit boring after a while, don’t get me wrong, I like low levels but it losses the spark fast after 3 ccampaings at max level 5, mainly because there is low variety.
