Bruiser Classes

These classes generally get abilities to improve their Attacks and survivability. You'll see most of these classes in the front lines with a decent amount of armor and weaponry, or other ways to increases their AC and deal more Damage with Weapons. While these classes do have some exploration/interaction features, they don't have too many. But what they lack in utility they make up for in tankiness as Damage output.

Specialist Classes

These classes generally get a lot of ability to out out high volumes of Damage, but also get a lot of utility, like exploration/interaction features, Spells, Proficiencies, Expertise, etc. Unfortunately, because of this, these classes generally can't take a hit as well as the Bruisers, so many rely on more hit and run tactics.

Half-Caster Classes

These classes generally gain Spellcasting at 2nd Level, and progress through gaining new Spell Slot Levels at half the rate of a Full-Caster. Because of this most of these classes gain some other features as well, such as martial ability, or extreme utility.

Pact-Caster Classes

These classes gain Pact Casting, generally at 1st Level, which is a form of Spellcasting where they gain new Spell Slots at the same rate as Full-Casters, but cap out at 5th Level Spells when they reach 9th Level. However, all of a Pact-Casters Spells are at the highest Level Spell Slot, they have less Spell Slots, but they can use an Action a few times per Long Rest to regain all of their Spell Slots. Pact-Casters usually get some type of utility features as well

Pact-Caster Classes

Class	Complexity (1-5)	Description
Warlock	4	You are a mage that gains magic via making a pact with a powerful, sometimes incomprehensible being, with a unique form of casting spells allowing you to consistently cast your most powerful magic.

Full-Caster Classes

These classes gain full Spell progression, eventually getting 9th Level Spells. Because of this, these classes are generally fairly subclass dependent as their core class usually doesn't have too many features because about half of the class is taken up by new Spell Levels and Ability Score Improvements. Full-Casters generally have a lot of utility and Damage potential due to the sheer amount of Spells that they have access to.
