[QUOTE="Condiments, post: 7827279, member: 6802006"] I played a mostly melee Bladesinger in my friends campaign for about a year to great success. He is currently a level 7 wizard/3 battlemaster fighter, and has very rarely been hit by enemies due to his ridiculous AC. The fighter levels have helped a bit with HP, though I'm waiting until next level when I can boost my Con. The combination of Bladesinger form and Shadow Blade is a deadly. At 3rd level you're doing 3d8+5 every swing or 6d8+10 if you hit both of your attacks. Being a battlemaster fighter, I have regular access to superiority dice, and action surge which I have used to great effect. Last session I pumped out 105 damage on a boss by unloading my action surge and superiority dice in one turn. Being an Eldarin elf, I can zip in and out of combat with my misty step so I never have to stay on the front line too long. How effective a bladesinger is depends on the multitude of rests available. If you're able to access short rests easily, and you never go beyond 5+ encounters per day you should have no issue. Between arcane recovery, and your spell slots, you can hit hard and often.
