Never have I felt so immediately identified. Artificer DM here. Crafting is a hobby in itself! Also a little dip into druid. I've stolen a ton from modules and run a very sandbox campaign. I crafted the factions and their goals/motivations but mostly let my players go wild. Letting your players craft the story is great. Also, super cool meeting you guys at Gencon!

Definitely Ranger. I usually have a map for every area and I love using the environment to make combat and exploration more interesting.

I ran my first homebrew game like this. It made for a fun game, but it got pretty mad at times. Started out in lockdown as a solo game for my partner, she was cops trying to catch a bunch of rogues, 6 cops Vs 6 robbers, who had committed the heist when the game started. I'd watched a lot of cop shows, it just felt right. Eventually when it was allowed I brought in the other players. One created a mercenary company, the other was more freeform. but we had an epic crescendo of 3 groups of 3 characters they'd created as first responders in a full-scale invasion of rattlings, culminating in the tempest cleric flooding the battlefield and calling the lightning, The bard rampaging through the city as a wooly mammoth, The wizard riding a couatl with the ranger, The mercenary company's barbarian suplexing a huge rat-giant. The monk defending a tunnel into the basement of the castle the rats had dug with flurries of blows and headbutts. The whole thing was fucking glorious.

Just started DMing recently and running Drakkenheim as my first campaign and just wanted to say thank you for all the love and effort y'all put into the campaign. My players are loving it and I am too 🤟 As a (still learning) DM, I think I'm a split between Sorcerer (modding and shaping pieces to fit my players and campaign), Paladin (reveling in putting them in tough scenarios with tougher choices), and Cleric (want to make sure everyone is having a good time and that players feel successful in what they are aiming to do). Thanks y'all!

[@chadbentley4008]

I picture the wizard DM is the person who tries to out smart the party without breaking the rules. Continually casting scrying on the party listening to their plans and then railroading would be the evil take but I like to attempt a prebuilt dungeon that his filled with traps or twists that I patiently wait for the party to face plant into. So I guess possibly a Rogue/Wizard

[@innerbeast415]

There’s some RAW vs. RAI issue around scrying, specifically “are PCs aware of making a WIS save? If so, how much are they aware of?” It’s entirely DM interpretation, but it’s typically poor form to punish a party with scrying and not give them an ability to react to it.

[@aaronbeck6504]

Best episode ever. After DMing a 2.5-3 year homebrew campaign; I can say that DMing is a combination of everyone of these styles depending on the session. The true art of DMing is knowing what "class" the players need each session and what the campaign requires. I think that's the magic of RPGs.

[@therea1wyvern]

Omg the second you guys described the Bard and Cleric DMs I knew I was a Bard-Cleric multiclass. I love the drama and the story and the NPCs but I also have my players at heart and want them to feel safe and have fun. If they push the line with a NPC or a situation too far though, they invoke my "wrath" in the form of having consequences for their actions. I might have a dash of Rogue in me because I'm pretty devious when planning sessions and I like to sit there smiling ominously as they discuss together as a party. Traps and puzzles and mind games are fun, but the best fun is pulling the rug out from under them and flipping things on their head (plays into the drama that I crave as a partial Bard)

I’m a bit of a fighter, barbarian, ranger, paladin dm. I always have everything set with ammo, maps, hunger, exhaustion, broken bones, a bleeding system, they end up fighting a literal god but along the way their fights are usually borderline enough to tpk while never actually tpking (partly because I may fudge a few roles)

[@lucasistrom]

I was never able to stay motivated for long-term campaigns until I embraced the ranger style of hex crawl campaign. Very front-heavy prep, but after that the structure makes it so easy for me to sit back and see what the players are interested in and then react to that.

[@KronosWT]

I think a big thing is, depending on the group, your DM class may change as well! In my one group they have the most fun when I play the Wizard/Barb/artificer style. Modules and staying on the rails with big fights and even bigger minis. My other group loves when I play the fighter/ranger style. Tactical fights, tracking each piece of ammo, and having a map for everything and anything.

I love tightly tuned combat encounters with tactical terrain effects and custom built lair actions. I show up with point form notes, graph paper, a pencil, dice, and instead of minis I use multicolored plastic aquarium gravel cause they’re super cheap to buy in bulk, they sit flat on the board, and can be color coded for different enemy types.

[@keithwiechart7744]

My current DM is definitely a Wizard. As for me, I used to be a full fledged Warlock, only focusing on building a horror experience, but that didn’t work out. I think I am now a Warlock 9, Rogue 6, Bard 3, Fighter 2. I am a huge fan of horror in D&D and I am always on the hunt for a new monster or plot that has the capability of unsettling my players. Mind games are my bread and butter and I thrive on keeping secrets close to my chest, I also love interesting puzzles. I also feel that music contributes a lot to sessions and I’ll spend hours curating playlists that evoke different feelings. And I want my players to be challenged and I often look up combat tips to make fighting monsters more than a hack and slash.

[@VisceralAshes]

I was in a DnD thread, it was discussing DM styles and decisions. One player yelled with exclamations, "DMs need to understand the players run the game! Not them, and if you don't like it you need to pack your stuff and go home!" Which I found not only incredibly hostile, but interesting since all most every table I've sat with was at the DMs home. So I guess they should just sit in the corner??? I have seen a general rise in aggression towards DMs in groups and threads and am wondering if the Dungeon Dudes would be willing to comment about how to bridge this chasm. I see things for players working together, for DMs to engage players, but not much for players to be respectful for the DMs play enjoyment. I've felt it as a player and as a recent switch to DM, that there are players that see a DM as a mere service provider and not someone who is also there to enjoy the story and who also wants to help shape it as well. If I'm alone in these observations, I apologize, but I feel that I may not be.

[@srvfan17]

I think I'm mostly Sorcerer, I constantly roll up to my sessions with no plan beyond "this is where we left off". I do know my improv tends to go in really surprising directions, so I think there's some Rogue in there, I do a bit of sound design and a lot of back-and-forth roleplay that indicates some Bard, and i always want my players to feel excited and cared for, so I think a little bit of Cleric

[@c0niferal]

I personally identified with Druid with a bit of Monk. I’ll spend so much time thinking about why my world works, and when I think I’ve got it I just scribble some stuff down and get to preparing what’s coming up in the session (which should be my focus cause it’s usually 3 days away)

[@Miskatonic1927]

Yep. That sounds like me too! 😈☠ From this video I figured I would be a Druid/Warlock mix for a GM. But a 3rd GM mutliclass with Monk could fit too.... and even a little bit of Sorcerer. And when I did in-person games, Cleric would also work a little bit.

[@jyabriel08]

I think my main DM is a high level wizard/bard. She hand writes all her notes and she weaves all our backstories together effortlessly. Probably 1 sorc level because we're a bit chaotic so she'll throw her notes to the side and say okay we're winging it.

[@HugoMUTHAFUKKINBiggs]

[@ShakalDraconis]

My thought for the Warlock DM is that they're all about ancient powers and ancient knowledge. They're the ones that come in not just with the core 5.0 books, but with the AD&D monster manual and 3.5 supplements. They give out quest rewards not just in magic items or gold, but in 4.0 powers. They're also the most supportive of characters coming up with their own homebrew races or classes, so long as they review and approve everything first.

[@Katwind]

Hhhmm... that's what I understood of the rogue. A DM who *steals* from other sources (games, stories, class features) and uses *deception* in order to *surprise* even the most knowledgeable of players. Meaning, someone who surprises because of homebrew creatures and usage of other source books into the game.

[@NecroGoblin-yl2fx]

Honestly, this is a really fun video and damn I think I've played with every kind of DM. I personally am *definitely* the Sorcerer type through and through. I've run some world of Darkness and Call of Cthulhu, but I've run it a lot more slanted towards adventure rather than horror.

[@arousedbear6536]

After thinking it over I think I am a few levels of Druid and Bard with a lot of Sorcerer levels. Mostly improving but I plan story beats and build the world for my players to interact in.

[@lorcandruid]

That's a really neat concept guys so thanks for putting this up! For me as a DM I'm a multiclass Paladin/Wizard. I have all the books (well plenty of them) and run modules rather than homebrew so I like to run my games as written with only a few amendments/overwrites. My partner as a DM though is very much a Bard/Druid cross. He's a wordlbuilder with rich & deep lore but he also creates such engaging NPCs that you either love them or hate them (as he intended of course). None of those NPCs are superficial or insignificant. Our games run very differently but that makes it fun for our table.

What a fun video idea. I'm definitely mostly Bard with my guiding the players through romantic entanglements and giving so many NPCs accents. I just think it attaches the player to the NPCs emotionally so that 1. They are invested in stopping bad things from happening to their favorite NPCs. (in other words they care about the plot) 2. It is a preventative measure against murderhobo urges. Also got to have that music playlist on point. Never heard of Syrinscape though, so thanks, I'll be looking in that!

[@hkfifty871]

I’m primarily bard/sorcerer, with a mild dose of druid, ranger, and cleric. I love the drama and storytelling, like having maps for everything, get really into my worldbuilding, typically make food for everyone, and often come with a fairly short set of notes and just roll with whatever happens. Originally planned to be more of a wizard, but after my first session where the party burned, skipped, or removed all the intended quest hooks (personal favorite- where they framed the NPC with the crucial information they needed and got them arrested by the city guard) I found I needed a new plan. Determined that the sorcerer style was more for me a couple sessions later. After improvising probably 90% of a session, the entire group complimented me on how fun and well prepared everything was. Figured if it works, might as well go with it!

In my defense, I was running a module and one of the leads could lead them into a massive dungeon built by wizards that I'd want to take some notes on before running. It had magical architecture and several teleportation circles.

I'm really impressed by this video. Rather than just going for memes and lolz, it actually has some very profound thoughts about the nature of DMing and flexibility. However, I'd like to go even further and talk about different games, not just D&D. They mentioned how Fighter DMs wish they were playing PF2E, but that's the only other game mentioned. Think, for example, about the GMing rules in Apocalypse World, which require a very specific mentality, and forbid others.

[@georgiahokie1994]

As a very beginner DM, I think I fall in line most with Bard, Druid, Sorcerer, and some Wizard. I like my players to have fun and they seem to like when I do the voices, play the music, and narrate their actions in a heroic fashion. The fun for me is creating a very rich world, but I also haven’t nailed down everything. I want to leave room for my players to come up with things I would have never thought of and then naturally integrate them into the world. I want to prep for the likely exploration in the next session, but improv if it goes a different direction. Unused content never goes totally unused; it gets shifted down the line.

My mate is a total cleric DM his D&D night is his day off work and he usually spends the day cooking for us all and he’s an amazing cook. He rules!

I'm mostly a sorcerer with elements of druids and rogues Recently I wanted to prepare a session a bit more thoroughly because I had a new player and I really couldn't think of anything to put as the climax of the session I improvised it all in the end and it turned out great I was quite proud

I'm a Wizard Druid multiclass with a little barbarian thrown in because it's pretty friggin cool to end with a huge boss fight like great wyrm or an eldritch being that's taken over the mind of an ally. The DM at my main table has like 1 level in artificer (He just got into 3d printing), and is mostly a sorcerer, but because he's running a module, when we do anything he doesn't quite expect because he doesn't really read too much into the module (his words are he likes to be surprised as much as we are), we can have a few minutes while he just flips through the book and reads to know what's in the next room we said we wanted to look at.

Cleric with a slash of Barbarian. I ensure everyone is having fun, love to feed everyone and host, and absolutely introduce a touch of chaos in the battles.

Over the last 45 years of playing and DMing I found that my class is fluid and keeps transforming from party to party. Right now multi class Artificer/Cleric.

So our DM for Curse of Strahd is my wife, who is Cleric all the way. Since our sessions are on Sunday afternoon, I spend Sunday morning cutting up the tomatoes and onions for the homemade salsa while she decorates the cake she baked on Saturday. We have the fridge in the garage that has everyone's favorite type of soda. Our game usually ends at 5:30, so I can cook something on the grill for everyone. But the hospitality ends when someone starts arguing with the DM. Beware the wrath of the gods, indeed! Oh, and, yes, she has a first aid kit (with Lact-Aid to help everyone enjoy the nacho cheese).

Druid/Monk, I have over 13 years of world building for my setting and was basically everything you said for the druid. (I have pets but I try to keep them off the table though). But on the flip side I have those monk elements boarding closer to the bard. (I do love combat and doing very good and tense combats like the fighter but in the monkish style that you mentioned).
