For those Dungeons & Dragons players who have played with the same character for a long time, things can get pretty stale doing the same thing every session, but fortunately, there are ways to revitalize that character with subclasses.

This makes subclasses a very viable method to reinvigorate characters longtime players are bored with.
Subclasses are D&D 5e's way of customizing an individual character class by offering unique gameplay mechanics. While changing one's subclass is not difficult, it is up to the DM to see if they will allow it. As some subclasses are hated by DMs for beaking combat, this should not be a shock. Nevertheless, changing a subclass is an easy way to change things up while still respecting the player class's role. Every character class in D&D 5e has multiple subclasses to choose from, some of them offering up drastically different playstyles than what their base classes are typically known for.
