[QUOTE="Broken One, post: 7434130, member: 54716"] Hoi there, I'm playing in a 5th level party at the moment. We went through Lost Mine of Phandelver and are at the beginning of Princes of the Apocalypse now. Some people want to change characters and I'm also considering it to replace our wizard. I loved bladesinger since AD&D but I'm not that deep into 5th Edition. The builds given in the guides floating around are understandable but my question is about some magic items the party has lying around and some flavor things. So we have lying around some "Gauntlets of Ogre Power" that even our last mage used. This would open up quiet some more weapons to me. The question is if using this is really worth it or if it makes me to dependable on this attuned item. If I use those bracers which would be some go to weapons to aim for? We have also things like: Staff of Spider which has some charges and +1d6 poison damage and +1 Mace with 1d6 radiant damage. Other things I'm thinking about, more for the flaver and less for the power is going as Shadar-kai (I guess my DM would still let me start with DEX and INT 16, we use point-buy). I liked the flaver of the Bladesinger sidebar namely Raven Bladesingers fighting with a Warpick sounds cool, at least flavorful and I guess I would be more intrestend playing the depressed/driven Shadar-kai instead of the classic elf. But if I see this correct most of the one handed martial weapons like the warpick or even other stuff is not that great in comparison to a rapier or the long sword what every elf can use. So with those magic items availabe and my flavor idea what would you consider me to build and how to start of with my level 5 Bladesinger? [/QUOTE]
