So, my group is about to start a new campaign and I'm considering what to play.
Artificer came to my mind, but I can't seem to get a wrap about, what it is all about.
Sure, the Armorer Artificer is Ironman, basically.
But what about the rest, I mean, he is a half caster, but he is not a martial combatant like Ranger and Paladin. Since he isn't a full caster, he doesn't have the same support capabilities like Bard or Cleric.
He can brew random potions, og shoot canons, but doesn't have sneak attack like a rouge. He also doesn't have multi attack like a monk.
So basically, what is the fansy about him, what role does you guys fill, Support ? Frontline Damage, ranged damage or something entirely else ?

Thanks for the answers.
In the end, another in the group chose Artificer, so I went with another class.
I do see the potential though, and not just IronMan ;)
