Which 5e Classes Make the Most of Weapon Master?

The color code below has been implemented to help you identify, at a glance, how good the Weapon Master 5e feat is for a specific class/subclass.

Artificer: You have access to simple weapons and that's all you need.

Barbarian: Barbarians get access to all weapon types they need.

Bard: This could maybe be useful if you wanted to stat into a bard with a bow with choosing the College of Valor.

Cleric: Any cleric subclass that might want martial weapons gets them as part of the subclass features.

Druid: Druids have no use for this feat.

Fighter: Fighters already have access to all weapon proficiencies.

Paladin: Paladins already have access to all weapons they need.

Ranger: Rangers already have access to all weapons they need.

Rogue: Rogues can use this to gain access to heavy crossbows, though they're usually better off to just dip into fighters for a level.

Wizard: Wizards have no need for weapon proficiencies.
