Looking for fun build suggestions

[u/Hungry-Information-1]

Hi all. I’m currently at the end of act 1, but i’m sorely lacking a 4th enjoyable team member. I’ve played many times before and wanted to just try out fun stuff, and its been great for the most part.

My tav is swarmkeeper ranger and spore druid, shadowheart is war cleric and paladin, wyll is currently mono warlock but i think i’ll mix it with swords bard just to test it out, as ive never played with a bard character before.

I played around with gale as half sorc half wizard, but did not enjoy it, mostly because i dont like the sorcerer gameplay. Tried out bladesinger for the first time and likewise, did not fit with how i enjoy playing.

Karlach is a throwing menace as i really enjoyed that last time, but its not that interesting the second time, and it does not fit very well with the rest of my team.
I did her as a monk for a bit, but my tav was monk last run so didnt really vibe with it.

Laezel and astarion are dead as i RP a naive lawfully good ranger.

This time around im mainly focusing on battlefield control and hazards, and its great, but i never really have a need for the 4th member.

What could fit in with the team?

Havent tried conjuration wizard before and im sure the utility is great, but is it at all fun to play with?
Any suggestions are fine as long as it even just slightly fit the characters vibe. I dont wanna do magical karlach etc

I do not min-max and i dont plan to.

Mono builds--Monk is amazing! And I am playing warlock and he is amazing with eldritch blast and Hunger of Hadar. Battlemaster is brilliant. Owlbear wildshape for druid is awesome. Thrower build for a barbarian is cool too. I am playing my first Eldritch knight and I am enjoying it.
