With the right eldrich blast build who needs spell slots.
-
Booming blade can get nasty too, but requires a lot more work for spacing/movement.

Booming Blade Swashbuckler, my beloved

Coffeelock was ridiculous shenanigans.

Warlock 2/ Sorcerer X needs spellslots to fuel quicken spell metamagic (for more eldritch blast)

Well technically the barbarian can only rage for a limited time without having to rest too (although he's a lot more dangerous without rage than a caster without spells is). Would a rogue have no limited resource other than hitpoints?
-
Rogue assassin archer can run away while shooting you. Being able to dash as a bonus action means they'll outrun you most of the time. Add in the sharpshooter feat, and they can ignore 1/2 and 3/4 cover. Any time they can get sneak attack means they can just do stupid amounts of damage.
-
Depends on the subclass I guess, my arcane trickster can stab kidneys forever but can’t misty step out of danger all day, cunning action dash can get you out of most spots though.

"And what you have are hit points, and the hope that before your hit points are empty, our spells slots have run out"
-
Imagine playing a wizard that cares about hit points.

That sounds like a really fun combat for a level 11 or less party!
-
… is the joke Irressitable dance? Is it somehow unthinkable to you that a powerful barbarian might have found some way around charm spells/other single targetsave or sucks? What if they just happen to be a Berserker?
-
You can certanly balance the combat, don't get me worng, but I think that a party from level 11 onwards can outmanouver a Berserker in ways he es not able to keep up. Most of the casters should fly by that point and its been a while but I think by level 11 casters already have access to some way to have the action economy on their side, like Animate object or summon animals (is that the druid's one?). In the minwhile the other party members can spam save or suck spells as you said! O guess the real breakpoint is level 13 when they have access to forcecage.
I really wish martial characters had some superhuman "spells" like your clasic super hero shockwave or those big jumps... I know monks can jump really far, but I wish most characters could!

Idk, did he ever learn to read?

All depends on how many times they can cast hold person.

Depends on what the casters have. Stand at the edge of a tall cliff or other height. Contingent action cast Dimension Door. Barb takes the fall, you appear where he was standing last round.

What do spell slots let you do, funny masked man?
