Sneak attack is also required for the rogue to be good in melee.
People act as if sneak attack damage is somehow this overpowered thing.
Rogues are weak as fuck skillmonkeys and the fact that they can, under certain circumstances, deal some damage is the reason the class isnt as bad as ranger is.
Imagine a rogue only dealt damage with a dagger, thats a 1d4, whats he gonna do with that?
>OP
Im not saying Paladins are OP compared to full casters.
Im saying Paladins are realy good in early game because they can cast spells, have tons fo HP AND have tons of damage AND heal AND have high AC (which is irrelevant in 5e admittedly)
They just get a lot of good stuff.
