Choosing Your Class
Considering the feature you get with the Half-Orc race you should really consider choosing one of the classes below:
Barbarian: In this class, you can use rage to become very strong in terms of fighting the enemies and having a great chance of winning your fights which can also follow up with subclass Berserker which also increases your DPS (damage per second)
Paladin: You can also choose the Paladin class that offers you a shiny armor with light to reflect on, although it is beautiful, the most interesting thing about this class is that its radiant damage makes it very effective against undead enemies, you are actually very effective against the undead (Ghouls, Zombies, Wraiths, Vampires, Ghosts, etc). For the subclasses you can choose according to your personal preference however, the Oaths of the Ancients is a pretty good subclass considering it’s healing.
