I am very new with D&D. Just played a little teaser campaign and read the players Handbook. Now I hear people Talking about subclasses and i started asking myself if i overlooked it or if it´s something that isn´t in the book. Please help, i am very confused and will start a campaign with friends soon but my DM forgot that I´m the only new guy in the group and don´t understand it.
Xanithars was the first official book to use Subclass as the term for Class Options which is the 2014 term for the various “sub -class” optional class features.
I think 3.5e used subclass to describe the optional class features as well.
But as wagnarokkr stated subclass(es) are pretty much class specific specialty features.
And each class allows for specific levels to be customized by the “subclass”, and enhancements to preset class features.( but you can’t replace or change the preset class features to function differently than how they currently work.)
Talk with your DM/GM if you interested in further details, they can better guide you on their specifics.
