[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 8351020, member: 7030563"] I think once a day at 11th level or higher would be ok provided the specific spell to be used was selected and expended ahead of time (at the end of a long rest or as its own independaet action out of combat). What we are talking about is essentially the equivalent of a contingency spell without using a spell slot, but with one discharge option (the attack). Since a full caster can't do that until 11th level and can never use more than one 6th level slot per LR, this class should also not be available before 11th level and should never be available more than once per long rest. Even at 11th level this is still very powerful for a half caster IMO. If they are a half-caster and if they stay within the Paladin damage limits per spell slot yes, but I would also suggest they have no cantrips like most other half-casters and nerf the other ribbon abilities since their higher-level feature is so good. For a martial character with extra attack and heavy armor as part of their class - never unless limited to like once per day. They do not allow you to cast action spells and use an attack action in the same turn. The only subclass that allows this are bladesinger and EK and they only allow cantrips with it, not leveled spells. No if you are going to limit this to cantrips or to spells with a bonus action casting time then it would be fine, but I would argue you have a bunch of options already if that is the case. [/QUOTE]
