As a bladelock though you can't cast spells like Hex /Hellish rebuke that have a somatic component without dropping your weapon/shield unless you have the Warcaster feat right? How do you get around this requirement before then?

WOTC has recently issued Cease notices to quite a few fan created online character generator. How will City of Brass avoid this? Do they have a deal or license to produce this?
The only downside of Lore Bard is that "Cutting Words" does not work vs anything that is immune to charm. I havent seen the Monster Manual yet, but that seems like it would be a large percentage of foes (undead, constructs, etc) compared to the Valor Bards ability which cannot be resisted...
