Concept shconcept... if I want to play a magical archer I'd be pretty disappointed with mister "three fun shot and then I need a nap". Even as a concept it's disappointing so I don't know what the heck people are seeing in that class.5e gishes are, on the whole, pretty underwhelming. They're not real merging of Arcane and Martial the way a 4e Swordmage was, they're most of the 'stab with one hand, magic missile with the other' variety. They're like dual wielding a gun and a sword. The Paladin and someone with the SCAG cantrip can feel much closer but the heavy armour flavour feel off. Considering all the fun stuff you can do AT-WILL with an Eldritch Blast I don't know why the Arcane Archer is limited the way it is. Maybe I should just homebrew a replacement?</blockquote>
