Ah youre mixing 5.0 and 5.5.
Your groups handed out vicious weapons like candy though.
I only had one group that did that, and it actually benefits the fighter a lot more than a Bladesinger because it gets more attacks.

It's kind of like the whole Hunter's Mark, Divine smite, Conjure Volley problem. You have to create low level spells that scale and Power without up casting or have them within a spell list so full casters can never get access to them.
Hunters Mark is a terrible spell and anyone can get it through a Feat (although anyone who wanted something like this would probably pick Hex instead).
Conjure volley is ok, but it is pretty much just a Force-damage upcast Fireball.
Divine Smite is the only one of those that a caster-Gish might really want over something they can gain anyway.
Yes, I would say that. And a fighter who fights with magic is the same as a fighter that doesn’t use magic, aside from fluff that is easily changed. Elric fights with magic, but the magic enhances his otherwise poor strength. So it can be built into his stats.I mean, unless you want to claim that every class that fights other than Fighter is really a Fighter who works by magic
they do not feel like a gish, more like some one screwed up a casterMaybe I'm a bit thick here, but, isn't arcane gish an Artificer? I mean, they've got the spells, powers and extra attack. In what way isn't an artificer an arcane gish?
More like people don’t know what to do with them. It’s like “omg this class is so underpowered, but omg repeating crossbows with infinite ammo are too overpowered and I’m not going to allow them”.Maybe I'm a bit thick here, but, isn't arcane gish an Artificer?

I think you have to be someone who relies on both physical weapons and arcane magic to count as a gish. Artificers are known more for their magical innovations. Can someone like the Ranger and the Paladin count as divine gishes?In what way isn't an artificer an arcane gish?
Yes.Can someone like the Ranger and the Paladin count as divine gishes?
