[QUOTE="Xeviat, post: 6934498, member: 57494"] Can Arcane Tricksters select spells outside their school? I didn't put the limitation in since I don't think it will matter too much, and the bonus action limitation limits it. An EK would still need to go through most of the day before using up all their spell slots, even if they used that spell every round. The EK generally will have a higher attack stat than a wizard, except maybe a high level blade singer. Plus, they have multiple attacks. I bet there are better spells for a blade singer to use their high level spells on. Level 20 blade singer, 9th level spell on an attack action 2x1d8+10 (20 dex, 20 int) +10d6 (64 damage) How much does meteor swarm do? Level 20 EK, 4th level spell on attack action 4x1d8+7, +5d6 (63.5 damage); and the fighter can surge for another 46. I'm cool. The rogue getting +17.5 damage on a sneak attack that's already getting +17.5 damage could be a lot, but I think an assassin's auto crit is effectively the same.
