D&D 5E (2024) Eldritch Knight

RAW doesn't require two hands on a two-handed weapons at all times. The two-handed is for attacks only.

Aware. Is that RAW or that ancient tweet from one of the designers?

Why, in the 5.24 PHB, does the Eldritch Knight not allow you to use your weapon as a spell focus? The Valor Bard and the Bladesinger Wizard allow you to do so, so why not the magic-using subclass of the Fighter which is supposed to be a weapon master? It just seems daft.

because why make something nice for the martials when you can instead give it to the fullcasters?

It's basic logic.

Any other interpretation would require your character to sleep with two hands on their two handed sword

I allow it but as I said i thin RAI the gish classes can cast while using weapons.

If its not RAI the designers screwed up.

Thanks for the input, friendos. It looks like I've found my first 5.24 houserule.
